BULLETPROOF MESSENGER has just released their new single, "A Place for My Head." Says the band's guitarist Voley Martin: "This song is the third release from our upcoming album that was put together during the pandemic of 2020. It started with influences of Weezer, CKY, and a few other weird inspirations. Initially I wanted it to have a dark and really kinda mystical heavy grind to the guitars but then we came up with the chorus and it ultimately blossomed into something completely different that I could never have planned. I think the Dark verses and bridge juxtaposed with the really heavy but bright and positive choruses is a quality that makes this song one of my favorites. Its a lot like life itself in that way."

BLACK LABEL SOCIETY / OBITUARY / PRONG live concert review by Snidermann: "I went underground, just like everyone else did when the deadly pandemic struck. As of writing this, I still don’t really trust being outside without a mask. But I was out with my wife one evening and we walked by the Ventura Theatre and I saw that Black Label Society was going to play there on Oct 2nd. Well, I thought then and there that I needed to go that show. Finally, the day arrives and a thousand heavy metal fans arrive in Ventura to see Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society with Obituary and Prong opening. As you might guess, we stood outside the venue for about a fucking hour before the even line started to move. Not sure why, unless it was the vaccination or negative COVID-19 test required. The good news is that we met some friendly fellow rockers who came up from Los Angeles just for this show. Who’d’a thunk it. Finally, there we were, our esteemed editor R. Scott Bolton and Snidermann from RoughEdge.com making it into a rock'n'roll concert. Third level, front and center, an excellent place to watch the show. Of course, the libations were flowing. Because of the fucked-up line situation, we missed Prong, who played their set when we were still around the corner on the sidewalk outside. But we got there in time for Obituary. The hit the stage and, holy shit, this band rocked hard and heavy for about an hour and each of those fuckers had hair down to their waist and it was a flying throughout the show like fur propellers. Obituary rocked the house and knows how to put on a heavy metal performance. It left the crowd breathless. At last, Black Label Society took the stage and Zakk Wylde and company came out and put on a stunning performance that blew our fucking socks right off. It was so loud, I think there was more white noise than there was music but that really did not matter. I mean, that's what we were there for. The music was loud, violently in-your-face, through your ears and right the fuck into your brain stem. We expected the best from BLS and they did not disappoint. The second lead guitarist kept up with Zakk every step of the way. The bass player seemed to be the smallest fucker I have ever seen on stage; it seemed that dude was 4' 10", if that, but he and the drummer were the glue that held the dual guitars together and kept everything on point. We've all seen artists like Stevie Ray Vaughan or Jimi Hendrix play their guitars held behind their heads; well, Zakk and his fellow lead guitarist played a dual mix for what seemed about ten solid minutes and jammed together with both guitars behind their heads. It was wild and impressive; I've never seen that. This was the first live music performance I have seen since this whole shitstorm started and I have to tell you, it rocked like a motherfucker. This was not the first time we have witnessed BLS and Zakk play and it won't be the last. Fuck yes, what a great show!" Black Label Society's new album, "Doom Crew, Inc." will be released in November ... Tuesday, October 05, 2021 … Update from JUDAS PRIEST’s RICHIE FAULKNER: “Maniacs… I’ve always been grateful for the opportunities I’ve been presented with. I’ve always considered myself THE most fortunate man ever - to be able to play my favourite music - with my favourite band - to my favourite people around the world…Today just being able to type this to you all is the biggest gift of all… As I watch footage from the Louder Than Life Festival in Kentucky, I can see in my face the confusion and anguish I was feeling whilst playing ‘Painkiller’ as my aorta ruptured and started to spill blood into my chest cavity…. I was having what my doctor called an aortic aneurysm and complete aortic dissection. From what I’ve been told by my surgeon, people with this don’t usually make it to the hospital alive….. I was taken to nearby Rudd Heart & Lung Center and quickly went into what turned out to be a 10 ½ hour emergency open heart surgery. Five parts of my chest were replaced with mechanical components…..I’m literally made of metal now…. It could have all ended so differently – we only had an hours set that night due to Metallica’s performance after us – and it does cross my mind if it was a full set, would I have played until total collapse…? If it hadn’t happened in such a high adrenaline situation would my body have been able to keep going long enough to reach the hospital…? The amazing Heart & Lung Center was 4 miles away from the gig site – if it had been further away … We can always drive ourselves crazy with these things but I’m still alive thankfully. Whatever the circumstances, when watching that footage, the truth is, knowing what I know now, I see a dying man … I’ve been moved to tears and humbled by friends, family, my fantastic band, crew and management and also you guys sending me videos and messages of love and support during the last week – I thank you all so much and although I have a recovery road ahead of me, as soon as I’m able to get up and running again, you’ll be the first to know and we’ll get back out there delivering the goods for you all….! One last thing maniacs, this came totally out of the blue for me – no history of a bad heart, no clogged arteries etc…my point is I don’t even have high cholesterol and this could’ve been the end for me. If you can get yourselves checked – do it for me please…… Lots of love and see you down the front again soon…. Richie…” Saturday, September 25, 2021 ...ARTIFAS has a vid for the track, "Leave Me For Dead", viewing at this link > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tn6hyrgHUuk This cut is off their upcoming disc, "Reflections", due out November 19, 2021...

I wanted to tell you about an experience I just had. The last time I felt I badly needed to review a new release, it was 2000 and the release of "The Sickness" from Disturbed. This time I feel that same need to review "Death by Rock and Roll" by The Pretty Reckless. It's funny, I have been in contact with our esteemed Editor, R. Scott Bolton, and he expressed the same feeling: "How did we miss this band?" Two tracks have been released on YouTube, the title track and "25," both of which simply kick ass. The new album is due on February 12th but that's not soon enough for me. I want to hear this album now and, when this fucking COVID-19 dies off, I want to see this band live. Check out "Death by Rock and Roll" and "25" on YouTube and see if you disagree ...
