pARTyzant is an electric guitar player, who started his career due to a legendary Polish rock band – Dzem. Since 1991, for over three years, he was supporting their concerts with his own solo performances and playing together with the band on harmonica, accordion, percussion or acoustic guitar.
"New Fang" is officially the first studio material to be released from Them Crooked Vultures. All the players bring what you'd expect to the table—Jones' gut-punching bass (think Physical Graffiti's 'The Wanton Song'), Homme's crunchy guitar riff and, in a refreshing return to form, Grohl bangs his hair and beats up the drums. The self-titled album that combines psych rock and heavy metal hits stores 11/17.
ClashMusic has learnt from drummer Chad Smith that the Red Hot Chili Peppers are working on new material with a possible release date of October 2010.
Interviewed for the next issue of Clash Magazine, Smith shared details of their plans stating, "We’re gonna write for a while, it usually takes us a while" before speculating that the release date would be "Some time next year, maybe this time [next year]".
Asked if Flea's experience working with Thom Yorke might feed back into the Chili Peppers new material, Smith said that his colleague had given him a cd of electronic beats to inspire him but that, at the moment, there wasn't an explicit electronic direction although he did speculate, "You never know. We’ve got songs with piano on them right now, so who knows."
Las Vegas quintet Escape the Fate began their ascent during the love-it or hate-it screamo scene. The band's formation was propelled in part by MySpace (just like Hollywood Undead who theyre currently on tour with), which vocalist Ronnie Radke and bassist Max Green utilized while searching for new bandmembers after their previous group's demise. The guys recruited guitarist Bryan 'Monte' Money, who subsequently brought along Vegas transplant (and former Lovehatehero guitarist) Omar Espinoza. Drummer Robert Ortiz joined thereafter to complete the group. In 2005, Escape the Fate had won a local radio contest judged by My Chemical Romance. The gig awarded them the chance to open a show on the band's headlining tour with Alkaline Trio and Reggie and the Full Effect.
From there, the band was signed to Epitaph, Espinoza left the group, and Radke was ousted due to drug problems and a charge of battery (which indirectly resulted in the death of an 18-year-old boy). Pretty metal, i know. Former blessthefall vocalist Craig Mabbitt was recruited to fill the vacant frontman position, and here we are...57 million myspace streams later.
