Ever wonder what became of the then-children you saw on the covers of breakout albums from Nirvana, Korn and the Goo Goo Dolls in the '90s? Well, MTV is all over it - check out this story about those three tykes, and more!
Apparently Pearl Jam's Lollapalooza was not, in fact, the first to be censored over political rhetoric by the folks at AT&T. Cingular may well be the new AT&T, but the three-letter squad has been accused of several other malfeasances, according to this article, which is basically saying "The company denies such and such, BUT..." over and over. Decide for yourselves.
I always hated that one song of his that was all over the radio a few years back - what was it called again?? - and now it looks like former Kid Rock(who?) DJ Uncle Kracker is in some serious legal trouble, after being arrested on charges of second-degree forced sexual assault(the law's words, not mine). Kracker is presently behind bars in North Carolina on $75,000 bail - down from the original five million. Ouch. [aversion]
I saw them on tour together earlier this year, so it makes sense: The Loved Ones, one of the best raspy-melodic-punk bands out there, have tapped Bouncing Souls guitarist Pete Steinkempt to produce their new album. Incidentally, two members of the now-defunct Explosion(you will be missed!) have joined the Loved Ones as permanent band members. TLO haven't yet finished the new album.
The guestlist on Bedouin Soundclash's latest album Street Gospels is insane: guitar parts contributed by Alexisonfire's Wade MacNeil, keys from Money Mark, production from Bad Brains's Daryl Jenifer and more. The record is out. Go buy it. I love Bedouin Soundclash.
Hey, if anyone really likes us here at the D, and likes our fresh takes on stuff(?), check this out. Christmas is just over four months away!
