Metallica Learned Lesson From Expensive Failure

"Hamburg show is off today, rescheduled to December 9 at Sporthalle," tweeted the band on Saturday (November 28). "See you all there. Thank you for all the well wishes for @MotorheadPhil."

They'll perform at the iconic venue for Teenage Cancer Trust. All proceeds from the event will be donated to the charity which provides cancer services for young people across the UK.

Scholz sued the Boston Herald and Micki Delp after the newspaper printed articles in which she made remarks which Scholz claimed could be construed as blaming him for Delp's suicide in 2007.

A judge dismissed the lawsuit against the singer's ex in 2011 but it was reinstated by the Massachusetts Appeals Court. A different judge dismissed Scholz's lawsuit against the paper.

The new dates are set to kick off on January 8th in Baltimore, MD at the Baltimore Sound Stage and the trek will conclude on February 12th in Sioux City, IA at Anthem @ Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.

The band advises the tickets that were purchased "original November/December dates will be honored for the rescheduled shows." The also say that ticketholder that wish to get a refund can obtain them at their original point of purchase.

The tour bus accident happened outside of outside of Cookeville, Tennessee while it was en route to Charlotte, North Carolina. The band's announcement says that heavy rains were thought to have "been a factor in the multi-vehicle crash" and that members of the band and crew were injured in the accident.

The band released the following statement, "We'd like to give special thanks to the Putnam County Emergency Management Agency and the Cookeville Regional Medical Center for taking care of us.

On November 13, 130 people were killed across Paris in a coordinated series of shootings and suicide bombings, with 89 of those murdered at an Eagles Of Death Metal show at the Bataclan venue. Extremist group IS claimed responsibility for the murders.

In an Instagram post, Fallon says: "I've been doing this for nearly 25 years now and last night's show in Paris was the most moving experience I've ever had while performing with JP, Tim, and Dan.

"Nothing out of the ordinary happened. People danced. People sang. People threw litres of beer across the room. By all accounts, it was a typical rock show. But these seemingly ordinary behaviours were extraordinary.

The tour is scheduled to kick off on February 18 at House Of Blues in Cleveland and will be concluding with the band's annual St. Patrick's Day week hometown shows in Boston.

The new studio record will be the band's first since 2013's Too Weird To Live, Too Rare To Die - and their first without drummer Spencer Smith who quit in April.

They expect to release the new album in first half of 2016. Lord Ahriman had the following to say, "Cold winds are blowing over Scandinavia and the winter will arrive very soon. The world is bleak and dark days await.

"During the past months we have been forging the foundation of what will become the new Dark Funeral album. Music and lyrics are falling in place, piece by piece.

Fish will perform his upcoming UK shows with Tony Turrell on keyboards. The singer reports: "John broke his arm after tripping and falling outside our hotel. He has badly fractured his right arm at the elbow, as well as fracturing a major bone in his hand.

The eleven-stop tour is scheduled to kick off in Vancouver, BC on December 10th and will be concluding on December 20th in Portland, OR at the Panic Room.

Frontman William Perry Moore had the following to say, "I'm a military brat. I remember how grateful the military families felt whenever bands performed on base. It was a great morale booster and something The Adarna has been focusing on doing ever since the formation."

The band will also be releasing an album, special for the tour, also entitled the "Project Gratitude". It will feature remastered singles from their first two albums and 3 debut songs (Lithium Kiss, These Monsters, and Firefight).

Speaking of their upcoming six-track, mainman Mikee Goodman told Metal Hammer: "This music was not easy to write lyrics to but you have to be true to yourself.

"I see a lot of light and dark and Opacities is really dark. So, there are songs about getting out of a depressive mindset, but there's positivity and escapism, too."

He continues: "I've had happy periods, but I've had a lot more depressive periods. It's a massive battle, but to sing and scream and write out poetry is therapeutic."

Porcupine Tree bassist Edwin says: "We chose the name 'Endless Tapes' since it reflects the many possibilities of the music. Given the cyclic elements in a lot of the compositions, I prefer to think of these recordings on Brilliant Waves as snapshots of particular decisions we made at the time. Playing the music in a live environment before we recorded really opened up a lot of the tunes - we could have gone in a number of directions."

Marie led the crowdfunding campaign that raised over $240,000 to assist with his medical bills while he fought near-fatal liver disease last year. Accepting the award at Club Ziggo in Amsterdam, Trout said: "This woman has saved my life, not just in the past two years, but every day for 25 years.

"When I met her and she started managing my band, we were living in a tiny sh*thole apartment and we had nothing. When it was time to pay the rent we would pawn a guitar.

The video focuses on the twin vocal attack of Pete Adams and John Dyer Baizley - and Adams insists their performances are a step up from their last record, 2012's Yellow & Green.

He says: " We help each other steer the vocals in the right place. We finally figured out how to do a two vocal thing so that it has personality and has a little bit more character. We're working out more on this record than we did on Yellow & Green."

The band said of the record: "Quiet World is about a guy who loves a girl. The guy is a bit of an odd and eccentric person - an outcast. He's also a mute, and a little unstable. The girl doesn't return his feelings, but he can't bring himself to let go. As his unrequited passion devolves into obsession and eventual resentment, his mind begins to slip further and further away.

The band offered this description on Facebook: "Focus groups have told us one thing: 'We need a BIG rock anthem with great big windmill riffs, foot-stomping drums and lyrics about partying almost to the extent of death.'"

Frontman Tony Sylvester had the following to say about the video to Metal Hammer, "When releasing a song celebrating life lived to the fullest and darkest, the choice of location for the music video is pretty obvious.

He tells Mitch Lafon: "We love each other so I wouldn't be surprised if we made more music. Let's say we go on a great touring cycle, which we're organizing now for this record, and it's successful, and there's a good vibe, well of course we'll make more music.

Earlier this year, guitarist and vocalist Ross Leighton told Already Heard: "We're still just finding our place in the whole music scene, and we're still trying to find what really defines what we do.

"This next album will be a representation of where we're at right now. I think it's important to just capture what you're doing at that moment rather than trying to be anything.

Heslop says: "The broad idea for this piece was really based on the idea of these two great contrasting powers - the sun and moon - and the idea of their control over life. The song flows from fairly chaotic riffs to a more uplifting, open sound.

"This is a song that was really born to life in the studio, despite having a guitar demo, the drums really dictated the mood and I really wanted the bass to have much more of a melodic role, especially in the ending motif."

He tells The You Rock Foundation: "I had a complete meltdown and I had a rough time in a romantic relationship - but I can't really blame this sort of meltdown on me breaking up with a girlfriend - it had been building and building.

"I came home from a wedding and I was really drunk and ate two or three boxes of sleeping pills. I lay down on my couch and I'm just like, 'I'm gonna die, this is awesome, I'm done with this terrible world.' But what happened was I woke up crazy and drunk."

Blythe then set fire to the house, prompting the arrival of fire services and police. He was then handcuffed which led to an altercation. He adds: "I was spitting at them, calling them 'pigs' because I was gonna die - I figured I'd do whatever I want.

"The police started on me with a nightstick - they thought I was on crack, they didn't realise I was having this complete emotional breakdown. I was trying to exit this existence."

Fourteen years ago this week the world lost George Harrison. Countless rock writers have tried to define the late George Harrison for a long time now as the 19 year old guitarist from Liverpool in an exciting new band in 1963; the Beatle who persuaded the other band members to visit India and study meditation and religion; the first Beatle to release a solo album and the first to have it top the charts. George Harrison the Humanitarian as the architect of the Concert for Bangladesh; George the indie film producer; Harrison the comeback kid with his 1987 smash solo album Cloud Nine; as Nelson Wilbury and his superstar band of five rhythm guitar players; Harrison the devoted husband and a father. George was all these things and so much more.

InTheStudio has consolidated several interviews with George Harrison in a special two-part "Best of" program. Speaking to InTheStudio host Redbeard, Harrison relates his own struggles for relevancy to others trying to live normal lives.

"People tend to write you off, it's a bit silly because after all the time we've been around, you'd think I must know something by now. So I always felt confident that if I wanted to do something and do it right, I could eventually. I like to put some words in songs that if anyone is out there listening, that it can give them a bit hope to. You know, it's like also saying 'don't worry its only a bit of time and if you keep on truckin' we'll be ok.' " - George Harrison

Frontman Tommy Victor had the following to say about the album, "Prong is excited about the upcoming release of our tenth studio release of new material, 'PRONG X - NO ABSOLUTES'. It seems as though our recent records keep getting better and this new recording definitely appears to be a testament to this.

"Prong has maintained aggression while tackling the challenge of creating classic songs and anthems in the past, but we have gone even a step further with this mentality on 'NO ABSOLUTES'. Here you will find a collection of riff intensified crushers, furious barn burners, and fist pumping sing-a-longs.

"Also, this record exhibits even more technical proficiency, showing progress again on all fronts. We feel the listener needs to be excited about every lyric, performance, sound, etc. for the duration of the record. This record throws a powerful punch, yet we feel it to be memorable and in demand of future listens with it's energy, strong production and overall catchiness.

The new video was filmed in Joshua Tree, California and was directed by Hristo Shindov. Frontman Bjorn "Speed" Strid had the following to say, "Recording the video for 'Death In General' was absolutely spectacular.

"After finishing up our North American Tour at The Whisky in Hollywood, we got up at 5am the next morning and drove into the desert. Joshua Tree is truly a magical place and was the perfect setting for this song and the mystical feeling it generates. Blind Melon guitarist Christopher Thorn was very kind to let us use his land for the shoot and he also welcomed us into his home.

Director Hristo Shindov and his assistants did a fantastic job, capturing the vibe of the song with stunning footage. The dancers, Daisy and Flannery also did an absolute outstanding job, as they danced in the sunset. Truly magical.

The band will be heading to the U.S. and Canada to take part in Bullet For My Valentine's British Invasion Tour which is set to kick off on February 2nd in San Diego, CA at the House of Blues.

While She Sleeps have just announced a number of one-off headline shows that will take place during the trek including their own shows in Anaheim, Iowa City in the states and three shows in Ontario, Canada in Ottawa, London and Hamilton.

The song comes from their new album "New Ghosts On The Radio" which is set to be released on December 11th. We were sent the following background information on the group:

End of Love began when Jody Stephens and Irwin Menken met in Europe, Jody was touring with his band Big Star Third and Irwin was on the road with Lee Ranaldo from Sonic Youth. A year later they joined forces and added New York City based guitarist Jay Deegan.

Lead vocals are shared by Skylar Gudasz of Big Star Third, Django Haskins of Old Ceremony, Karlie Bruce of Escort, and Elisa Peimer. Guitar parts are by Jay Deegan, Nels Cline of Wilco, Lee Ranaldo of Sonic Youth with additional contributions by Abe Seiferth of Phonograph and Chris Stamey of the dB's among others.

Mikael Jorgensen of Wilco added syth and John Stirratt also of Wilco added backing vocals. The album is produced by Ted Young with assistance from Irwin Menken, Chris Stamey and John Stirratt.

Jody shared the following about the formation of the group, ""I got involved as a member of End of Love in November of 2013. I had met Irwin in Europe a year earlier when I was touring with Big Star Third and he was playing bass for Lee Ranaldo. We ran into each other again about 18 months later in New York. He told me about the project and asked if I'd play drums on a couple of tracks. He and Jay came to Ardent in Memphis and we had a great day in the studio. Over dinner he asked me to join the band and I agreed.

"At the time I was beginning to work with Luther Russell on what has turned out to be Those Pretty Wrongs. In that project I am co-writing with Luther and singing but not playing drums live. Big Star's Third live, Chris Stamey's idea, affords me the chance to play drums and sing Big Star songs. An incredibly special event, but it only happens a few times a year.

Ferry will be launching the UK tour on April 16th in Perth, Scotland and the trek includes a stop in Stirling (Scotland) on April 18th and two shows at the Palladium in London.

We were sent the following details about the special release: Limited to 1500 copies only and with 100 copies being personally signed by Bryan himself for fans pre-ordering from www.bryanferry.com.

Bonus material then adds four exclusive Avonmore remixes on a second white heavyweight 12" vinyl plus two extra CDs of album track remixes including unreleased cuts from Leo Zero, Idjut Boys and Synapson.

"'Soldierstown' is a song with a dark and poignant lyric tempered with a huge Celtic guitar riff," says frontman Ricky Warwick. "Sometimes pulling the covers over your head is not enough."

Black Star Riders are currently playing dates across Europe and will join Def Leppard and Whitesnake for a 10-date UK tour next month along with two headline shows of their own - December 11 at London's Shepherds Bush Empire and December 17 at The Wulfrun in Wolverhampton.

The band had the following to say, "We're signing to Agonia Records for this new record that we're currently recording. It all feels really good, we get good vibes from the people at Agonia and the label has some of our friends on their roster as well as a lot of other good music. We're in good company and we have some good things cooking.

"The new record brings some new elements to the band, which feels good. First of all we are super stoked to have Daniel Liljekvist with us behind the drums, he has brought a whole new vibe to the band and brings both new kinds of dynamics as well as new kinds of power to the music. We're also recording with Jonas Martinsson who is handling the studio engineering, which as well will bring new elements to the sound of the record.

The band had the following to say about the effort, "The Earth Is The Sky is an album where we tried to take everything as far as we could. There where points during the recording where we honestly spoke about giving up and calling it a day, it felt like we would crumble under the album. But we suffered through. The result is a desperation about how humanity drags it all to the end.

The tour will be kicking off March 4th in Bristol at the Thekla and includes stops in Wolverhampton, Leeds, Newcastle, Glasgow, Manchester, Nottingham and the final show on March 31st in London.

The tour will be kicking off on the 30th in Chico, CA at Cafe Coda and will wrap up on December 17th at the Golden Bull in Oakland, CA with stops scheduled in Oregon, Washingston, California, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona.

Scott Kelly had the following to say about the trek, "Bruce and I look forward to continuing our live sound experimentation through the Western States for an eighteen-show run starting November 30th in Chico, California and coming home to Oakland, California on December 17th.

"We were able to get a good idea of what we can do on our initial twelve performances in the Northeast but I feel like we're just beginning to find the deep vein.

'Integral' was released on October 9th and the band filmed the live video for 'Grasp of Impermanence' during their performance at The Zoo in Winnipeg on October 30th.

We were sent the following details about the album: 'Integral' is follow up to their 2013 debut album 'Manifestation of Eternity in a World of Time". 'Integral' is a gateway into the infinite fractal nature of the minds of Drew (Parasitism) on guitar, backing vocals, Ben (Moira) on drums, backing vocals, Tom on bass, lead vocals, and Marco on guitar.

Topics are inspired from works of many psychonaughts akin to Carl Jung, involving transcendental, philosophies, global tribe mentality, the impermanence of the physical world, and alchemy. Their riffs range from atmospheric black-metal grooves, old-school inspired death metal passages, thrash riffs, progressive technical journeys, and everything in between for an extremely energetic onslaught of sounds.
