JOHN 5

On the eve of heading out on tour in the USA with Rob Zombie and literally in between recording takes for some bonus tracks for a soon to be released version of Zombie’s latest “Hellbilly Deluxe 2”, John 5 gave us the lowdown on his instrumental guitar album “The Art Of Malice”....   (read more)

ROB HALFORD

15 July 2010

When we last spoke to Rob Halford it was in our summer for promotion of his album “Winter Songs”, ironically now that its actually winter here, we had the opportunity to once again talk to the nicest guy in Metal who has just released a new Live CD and DVD film called ‘Live in Anaheim.’ The Metal God took some time to discuss the live album with us, his new record coming later this year, a memory or two of Ronnie James Dio and gave me a visual I’ll probably never stop laughing about.

VINNIE PAUL & CHAD GRAY (HELLYEAH)

29 July 2010

Last month we had the privilege to speak to Vinnie Paul from HELLYEAH and now with the boys from HELLYEAH here in Australia for a few shows we were lucky enough to sit down with Vinnie and singer Chad Gray to talk about the Australian tour, work out if and how they can record their next album on an iPhone, watch some golf and just what they get up to when boredom strikes… oh and they told us they’re coming back next year for a festival too…

DROWNING POOL (CJ PIERCE)

28 June 2010

Not many bands can lay claim to having 3 singers and still be around in the industry these days, but Drowning Pool are one of them. Through adversity of losing their original singer to a heart condition and a personality clash with their second, they persisted and now with third singer Ryan McCombs they’ve just released their newest self titled album ‘Drowning Pool’ and guitarist C.J. Pierce was cool enough to take some time out to talk to us about the record, touring, fans and just how much he misses Australia.

THIRTY SECONDS TO MARS

27 July 2010

American band ‘Thirty Seconds To Mars’ are currently back in Australia in support of their latest album ‘This is War’ and on a tour that hits Perth, Melbourne and Sydney.  The bands guitarist Tomo Miličević was nice enough to take a few minutes to talk about the shows, their amazing videos and get this, his love of Lady Gaga.  So if you can, make sure you head out to see ‘Thirty Seconds To Mars’ this week while they are in town as from what Tomo told us, this will be one amazing show!!

BOYS LIKE GIRLS

13 July 2010

After initially discussing the perfect, almost Halloweenish weather, our mutual love for Butch Walker via my tattoos and tattoos in general, I must say it was a pleasure to sit down and talk to Martin Johnson and Paul Digiovanni from Boys Like Girls who are here for their second tour of Australia in support of their newest album ‘Love Drunk’ out now through Sony Music.  The guys took the time after a big night to discuss the show, the future of the band and more!

BLIND GUARDIAN (HANSI KURSCH)

Returning with their epic new album “At The Edge Of Time”, Blind Guardian once again stamp themselves as one of the leading metal bands in the world.  Still recovering from the World Cup exit of Germany just hours earlier, the bands lead singer Hansi Kursch revealed some fascinating insights into the writing and recording process for “At The Edge Of Time” as well as explaining just how the band came to cover John Farnham’s “You’re The Voice”.
