Steven Tyler is a professional

Even though Steven Tyler ditched Aerosmith to judge a reality show, he’s now making it seem like he’s the one being ditched… Pretty clever, huh?

“I’m trying to rally the guys together. We’re having trouble getting Joe. I don’t know where he is, but just come down to L.A. at the end of January sometime. I’ve had enough downtime.“

I think I know where Joe is. He’s whoring himself out on some TV show… Oh wait, no, that’s not him…

Darkest Hour reveal artwork

Generic Metalcore/Melodic Death Metaller’s Darkest Hour have revealed the artwork for their forthcoming album, The Human Romance, which is scheduled for a February 22, 2011 release.

The artwork is some skeletons making out or something lame. Check it out after the jump. That’s if you can be bothered taking yourself away from your porn for a couple of seconds. I wouldn’t bother if I were you, unless skeleton porn is your thing of course.

Drummer needed. Second arm optional.

As you might know, there are 9 arms in Def Leppard, which is kind of cute in a “Ripley’s Believe it or not” kind of way.

So when I hear that a band called Pyromania is looking for a one-armed drummer, I’m thinking it’s either a “The Fugitive” tribute band or they want to emulate Def Leppard. Guess it’s the latter, which is also cute, in a Victorian sort of way.

“Pyromania, a Def Leppard cover band based in Dallas, Texas, is currently looking for a new drummer with only one arm, just like actual Leppard drummer Rick Allen. Their hand-written ad also insists that the prospective percussionist must have “no prosthetics” and should own a “flame retardent kit and stick.“

Full article here.

So if you are a drummer, have one arm, pro gear and no prosthetics, give these guys a HAND and join a tribute band. Imagine how easy the audition process is.. “Can you clap?” “No.” “You’re in the fucking band.”

For an extra laugh, on the same page of that article there’s news about some rapper called T.I. getting a handjob in prison or something.

ALEX IDEA: Donate one arm to T.I., then join Pyromania.

The day Germany sued Finland

In 2007, Apocalyptica released their album ‘Worlds Collide,’ that featured many guest vocalists, including Till Lindemann of Rammstein, who sang on their cover of David Bowie’s ‘Heroes,’ called ‘Helden’ in German. That much I knew already because I’m a fan of this particular song and especially Lindemann’s vocals on said track.

Apparrently, Apocalyptica promoted ‘Worlds Collide’ in Germany with a sticker on it, saying ‘featuring Rammstein,’ instead of… you know… ‘featuring Till Lindemann of Rammstein‘ and that caused Rammstein to sue Apocalyptica for trademark infringement and Apocalyptica were ordered to pay 45,000€ (about $59,000) to Rammstein.

I don’t want to add anything to this because Rammstein are known to even sue their fansites for ridiculous reasons. Check out a fan made video of Apocalyptica featuring Rammstein Till Lindemann after the jump. It’s a good song nonetheless.
