Puff — Thu, 09 Aug 2012 16:20:01 +0000

Lemmy is the most bad ass man in the Rock Universe. And it's not just because Motörhead and HeadCat are awesome (which they are), it's not just because the man is a living legend (he is), but the real appeal of Lemmy is he's a real dude.

Amy Sciarretto — Sun, 01 Apr 2012 16:02:19 +0000

Motorhead frontman/bassist (and badass) Lemmy Kilmister isn’t so much miffed at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for virtually ignoring his legendary band and not inducting them into their hallowed halls despite the fact that they’ve been rocking since 1975. He’s got an axe to grind with the powers-that-be over a bigger and more important matter. They lost his ‘Ace of Spades’ tour jacket after he loaned it to them for an exhibit.

Lacuna Coil has a new album, Dark Adrenaline, in stores and online...and they're on Gigantour with Megadeth, Motorhead, and Volbeat. Hopefully this album and the tour will get them the attention they deserve. One of my favorite bands for several years now, Dark Adrenaline is a return the sound they had prior to the over-polished album Shallow Life. The songs are little poppier, but they're catchy, and Cristina Scabbia’s looks and sounds spectacular!If you're hitting up Gigantour in Dallas on March 1st, make sure you get there early and check out on of Italy's finest exports!
