Ryan Adams is releasing a heavy metal album on vinyl next week. He talked about the track ‘Electrosnake’ on his website saying, “We’re going to begin pressing ‘Orion’ – my most legit METAL record – on vinyl next week. Have a listen to the song below and let us know if you’d be interested in purchasing one. P.S. Not a single B.C. Rich was hurt in the making of this record.” 70,000 people already expressed interest in buying the album and Ryan is ecstatic about it. The singer said “Unreal, 69,567 people want a copy. That’s too many, but still… It’s so cool getting to figure out what the manufacture numbers are before you go to press. The future, y’all!” What is it with everyone and the sudden shift is music?

After 18 long years with Geffen Records, it seems Rob Zombie has finally decided to pack his stuff and move to Roadrunner Records. The reason… well, an honest one, truth be told: they just didn’t give Rob Zombie enough time to promote his new record. This is what the singer said about the move: “It certainly wasn’t an easy decision to make after all this time, but it had to be done. I love this new record and wanted to surround myself with an excited new group of people who can reignite my enthusiasm for working within a hard rock record label. Roadrunner seems to be the perfect place.” Right… well, the boys at Roadrunner will probably make sure that Rob Zombie gets all the bang for his buck that he needs. Let the sellout commence!

The former front man from Black Sabbath has recently filled a lawsuit against the guitarist for seizing the rights to the band’s name and all the merchandising that follows. Ozzy Osbourne said the following about his drastic actions: “Tony, I am so sorry it’s had to get to this point by me having to take this action against you, we’ve all worked too hard and long in our careers to allow you to sell merchandise that features all our faces, old Black Sabbath album covers and band logos, and then you tell us that you own the copyright.” Rightly so! Ozzy Osbourne was dead center on this one… after all, Black Sabbath is like a familly business to him and the rest of the band and it is only fair that they get their fair share of the bounty.

The band… or fictional band, as most might brand it, will be releasing some new material after seventeen years of laying silent in the shadows. The new album will be called “Back from the dead” which seems to be quite the adequate choice of a title. The bassist, Derek Smalls, had this to say about the new release: “Basically, it was possible to put out a record that was louder than any we’ve ever had before, and that was a selling point right there. We could have the loudest Spinal Tap record there’s ever been, and we thought, ‘Well, yeah, why not?’” A wise choice and one made in the true spirit of heavy metal which Spinal Tap seems to enjoy so well.

Hollywood hair metal dreamers Steel Panther have launched an all out attack on the pop mainstream with their newest video “Death to All But Metal”. Asserting their alpha male dominance with plenty of hairspray, spandex, and sick stage moves, Steel Panther have taken shots against anyone NOT flying the hair metal flag. Kanye West, Madonna, and 50-Cent are among the superstars targeted by lead singer Michael Starr’s wrath in the clip.
“Death to All But Metal” is an homage to Van Halen’s classic “Hot For Teacher” video and also features a cameo by smart mouth comedienne Sarah Silverman as the school principal.
Steel Panther’s new album, Feel The Steel, hits stores on 6/9 (how fitting is that date?!)
Check out Steel Panther’s new video for “Death To All But Metal” below:
