Possibly the single most street cred establishing commercial for a brand in history-

FUCK SHIT STACK

4 way off genre but awesome covers of metal songs (and one shitty one)

-Enter Sandman, easy listening smooooth jazz style. With original vocals and concert footage.
(Hang in there 'til the vocals kick in)


-Rad chicks doin an acoustic danzig cover
(Devil Plaything)


-Reggae style Detroit Rock City. Suprisingly well done. Also with original vocals and concert footage.


-8 bit raining blood. Slayer VS nintendo.


-Sabbatum (not to be confused with fucking awesome power metal band Sabaton), a band that has a whole album of Black Sabbath covers played on medieval instruments and sung in Latin. It sucks.


Johnny Cash doing Danzig, and yes I know he covered "hurt" from NIN also but they suck so fuck them. He owns that shit now.



Tune in next week for awesome metal covers of way not metal songs.

*UPDATE-
ACDC old school jazz style "She Shook Me All Night Long"

Two Awesome Things That Nike Did:

"...In celebration of James Stewart's recent 2009 AMA World Championship, Nike 6.0 commissioned garage punk rockers The Black Lips to record an exclusive cover of the classic Willie Nelson song "Mammas Dont Let Your Babies Grow Up to be Cowboys."




Nike builds perfect scale replica of Burlington's own infamous BHS rail at their brilliant "greatest hits" park at Mt Seymore. Jump to around 37 seconds in to check it out.

Vintage Black Flag T shirt sells for $707.50 on ebay. Good on 'em.


"My name is Chuck Dukowski. I was the original Black Flag bassist and an SST Records owner until the end of 1989. I'm selling a bunch of my Records and music related memorabilia. This is a super rare BLACK FLAG "IN MY HEAD" COP tour t-shirt from 1986. It features the "'86 TOUR IN MY HEAD" back print and one of the 4 classic Ray Pettibon album art graphics on the front. (After the tour the back print was eliminated from the regular IN MY HEAD T-shirt sold by SST) The shirt is in very good condition but it's not new. The tag says it's an XL 100% cotton Hanes garment."

When I am an eccentric billionaire, this is the kind of shit I will buy.

M*A*S*H

In case anyone doesn't know about this yet, some dj fellow by the name of Tom Caruana just put out a free album, mashing the Beatles with Wu-Tang. It is so many levels of awesome. Cop it HERE-


For a far more mediocre but somewhat listenable attempt at beatlemashing, check out The Grey Album. Jay Z's black album and the beatles white album, mashed by Danger Mouse.


If you somehow don't know about this yet, it is time.

This is my all time favorite mashup album. Old news, but I want to make sure everyone is on the same page here. Love this shit- Biggie and Sinatra, Blue Eyes meets Bedstuy. I swear to god this album never gets old. Do yourself a favor and get this shit into your ears asap. I'm gonna go ahead and assume that everyone has already heard all of these but I just wanted to put em all in one place for easy downloadin'. If you look around, there are a few more concept mashup albums, but most are not worth your precious time. If are bored enough, check out Gratefully D.E.A.D.(biggie and grateful dead), Jaydiohead (Radiohead and Jay Z), Viva la Hova (Jay Z and Coldplay. I didn't even waste my time with this shit. Just move on.), Beatallica(beatles and metallica mashup cover band) , The Slack Album (Pavement's Slanted & Enchanted x Jay Z) and of course, The Biggie Hendrix Experience (biggie and hendrix. duh.) I'm sure there are more out there but that is pretty much all i've heard about for full mashup concept albums.

And yeah, I know, your friend is a sweet DJ and does this awesome mashup song with linkin park and the jonas brothers, but my friend is better. Trust me. For some hot mashup fire, ladies and gentlemen, allow me introduce Disc Jockey Extraordinaire, DJ ANUBUS. Check him out next time you are in brooklyn. Lots of freebies on his website too.

Metal Monday

Monkeys like Metallica. Sure why not.
"A group of cottontop tamarins were played a variety of music, including Bach, Led Zeppelin and Miles Davis, but they only reacted when heavy metal rock songs by Metallica were played."

-Speaking of Metallica, start saving those shekels-
"METALLICA, SLAYER, MEGADETH AND ANTHRAX TO PERFORM TOGETHER FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY" I have no words. Epic doesn't begin to express how fucking awesome this is. Biblical perhaps. The 4 horsemen of the Metal Apocalypse. Fuck yeah.

-Lance Armstrong listens to Maiden. And twitters about it

-According to wikipedia, Jim Carrey is a big fan of Cannibal Corpse, and allegedly insisted that the band make a cameo appearance in Ace Ventura:Pet Detective

Remember that?

-If you were to make a Venn diagram of the people who listen to metal, and the people who play harp, you wouldn't expect to see a whole lot of people in the overlapping section outside of rhapsody/nightwish/fantasy metal nerds rocking out in their parents basements surrounded by posters of wizards and piles of pizza crusts and empty mountain dews. This dude is the exception to that rule.

Bad ass.

Harptallica


If you want to go further down the rabbit hole of strange alchemy, take a gander at this curiosity


Seriously. They also have "lullibified" full albums of Pixies, Nirvana, Radiohead, and of course, Metallica.

-Not quite metal, but worth speaking upon: Flaming Lips to remake Dark Side of the Moon with Henry Rollins and Peaches? Did someone just put a list with a bunch of bands, artists and albums in a blender, pull out the first 4 things and decide to go with it?

-For anyone interested in all things black/death/grind/wiggerslam/porngrind/doom/postthrash/various obscure as fuck brootal metal genres and bands/etc, I highly recommend reading the Metal Inquisition blog. It reads something like a cross between the do's and don't's section of vice magazine and perez hilton. But metal as fuck. Hilarious.

-For more black metal evilness, check out the photography of the one and only Peter Beste- Amazing stuff documented from within the black heart of the beast.
True Norwegian Black Metal

Unfortunately, at the time of this post the extensive photo section of his website was down. Google image that shit. Follow that up with the accompanying documentary, courtesy of your friendly neighborhood VBS programming station.

-Before there was a little band called Motörhead, Lemmy was in a more old school Sabbath'y, Pentagram'y psychedelic pre-metal band called Sam Gopal. They put out one CD and it rules.

And yes, that is lemmy singing.

Ever heard of Glen Branca? Some people talk about playing guitar as comparable to making love to a beautiful woman. This is more like raping a crackwhore in a warzone.


In bummer news, Dio was recently diagnosed with stomach cancer. Let us worship and offer virginal sacrifice to the big horned guy downstairs to aid him in a speedy recover.

That's all for now. Go headbang or something.

Apologies to my legions of fans, stalkers, haters, babymommas and people who mistakenly get bounced here from random google searches, blogging has been slow lately but is expected to pick up. Stay tuned. In the mean time, check out the shred city phlog (photoblog)

IT'S ON...

-Grenade is ON a boat.


-Louie "Sheckler in training" Vito is ON Dancing with the stars

(with kelly osborn, chuck liddell and sabrina the teenage witch no less)

-This cover of black betty by Nick Cave as featured in the intro of "Baker Has a Deathwish" is ON my list of most awesome song covers of all time.


WARNING- Adderall fueled gibberish ahead. Proceed with caution.

What's truly remarkable about this piece, is the manner in which the sharp percussive clanks, grinds and smacks of the skating and assorted other backround ambiance and voices in the video intermingle so seamlessly with the song, elevating the whole to a level far greater then the sum of its parts. This metaphorical yin and yang, combined with the rapid fire visual assault of incongruous and nonlinear imagery creates an unexpected and brilliant audiovisual synergy. From chaos, comes a strange cohesiveness. A masterful juxtuposition of seemingly unrelated music and imagery if ever there was one. The savage grunting and howling in conjunction with the strange ritualistic and violent outbursts of movement and self expression on behalf of the baker clan, paired with the tribal drumming and chanting of the song conjures thoughts of pre hominid man, performing crazed primitive dances and thrashing around wildly in attempts to earn the favor of savage and brutal ancient gods.


-Somebody needs to put this bear ON a skateboard.

"SNOWMASS, Colo. - A bear that wandered into an in-ground skateboard park and got stuck was rescued when officials lowered a ladder so it could climb out."


I really hope that some local gnardog skate rats rolled up on the scene first, shotgunned a few, ripped a few lines through the bowl while being chased by the bear, then after a few close calls, called it a day and informed the proper authorities. I'm waiting on the footy.

Mos Def releases new album in T-shirt form

"The Mos Def music tee has The Ecstatic's cover art on the front, the tracklisting on the back, and a code for a downloadable version of the album on a tag."

Couldn't find a pic of the shirt but this is the art

Such an awesome concept

Essential Viewing round 1

For one week only, Pitchfork is hosting the classic gg allin documentary "HATED", full and uncut. Click and watch. Enjoy.

Hated


If you have never seen it, or have never heard of GG, watch it now and thank me later. While on the topic of bad ass music documentaries, do yourself a favor and watch Heavy Metal Parking Lot, another classic shot entirely in the parking lot of a judas priest concert, circa 1986. 16 minutes worth of tailgating, shotgunning, shittalking, babes, metal, mayhem and spandex. Glorious.

HEAVY METAL PARKING LOT [1986]

Also, Danzig wants to tell you about his books-


Oh yeah, also this-
