Sully Erna still modest

Godsmack frontman, Sully Erna, still thinks his new album is the bee’s knees (we don’t).  Speaking to MTV, Sully recently admitted that for the time being, his solo work is “his baby”, going on further to say it’s “unlike anything else that’s out there”.

That’s funny, because I could have sworn it was just like Godsmack.  Or any other generic American rock band for that matter.

Mike Shinoda is calling out people on the internet

Now, before I even start, I know, the only metal we can associate with Linkin Park is the daily requirement of iron and zinc their band members have to take in order to stay alive (too bad, right?). So why mention them you might ask? Well, we’re a humorous site, and the articles on Linkin Park tend to write themselves.

Or in this case, by Mike Shinoda. It seems that it’s not enough that all the sell out established journalists are praising their “concept” album A Thousand Suns, because Mike wants more. So if you write a fan review on iTunes and rate the album badly, prepare to be taught a lesson by the big man himself. Quite hypocritical for a band who traded their teenage angst for the U2-inspired “bringers of world piece” image. Live and let live, isn’t that right, Mike?

The Absense unleash new video

Melodic Death Metal band (AKA not Death Metal at all), The Absense, another American band that’s ripping off taking influence from vastly superior Scandinavian Metal, have just unleashed their new video for Enemy Unbound, taken from the brilliant new album of the same name.

check out the video after the jump. Or you could just check out Arch Enemy or At The Gates instead. No, but seriously, check out The Absense. They’re awesome.
