Taking a look at a new DVD offering from Cartoon Network.
As the European festival season winds down, fall releases and US touring move to the fore. Updates on Baroness and Testament’s European road trips precede discussion of Crazy Uncle Dave’s latest rant on US politics from the stage in Singapore and the judge’s ruling in the Kyuss Lives! lawsuit. Loond dissects recent releases from Malice and Lord Fowl and Jibbies explores the greatness and present-day influence of Blue Oyster Cult via their new retrospective box set. Fall releases? How ‘bout Down, Enslaved, the Sword, Neurosis, and Power Trip as just the tip of the iceberg? And tours? In addition to already-announced road work from Gwar, DevilDriver, Cancer Bats, Red Fang, and Black Tusk, J&L pile on with US tours including Converge, Kvelertak, Torche, Valient Thorr, and Tomahawk. Finally respect is given to the rapidly selling-out October European package of Slash and Ginger and info provided on how to give fellow metalhead Ed from Doomantia.com a helping hand.

This week's interviewee is the lovely Layla of WWE fame.
Back in March 2010, I went and saw Dave Mustaine and Megadeth perform and came away with one overriding conclusion: dude was sick in the head. It wasn't anything he said, it was his presentation of the band. Now he's gone and doubled down on his lunacy by stating from the stage that President Barack Obama orchestrated the killings in Aurora, Colo., and Oak Creek, Wisc, in order to "pass a gun ban." Fuck you Dave. And RIP Dime.
#LinkFrogging...so charismatic.
Houston's Venomous Maximus have leaked a track from their upcoming 'Beg Upon The Light' album. Entitled 'Moonchild,' the track picks up VM's dark-yet-rocking vibrations and amplifies them with a production that is bigger and more powerful than ever without undermining Venomous Maximus' essential earthiness.
