Julia and I saw this band, Mantic Ritual, open for Rotting Christ earlier this month.  This is their new video, “One By One,” off the album, Executioner. The singer’s got some killer bangs. (via Metal Underground) -Elise

Oh, hello there.
I am now inexplicably receiving random music press releases in my PERSONAL email account.  The management for the comedy/metal band Psychostick emailed me this morning to announce their upcoming album. They’re kinda like Shat.  They have songs about beer, Jagermeister and the ABC’s.  A few months ago, they had an album fundraiser in which fans could submit their names to be mentioned...

I recently did an interview for The Metal Pit, and it turned out pretty well. Clicky clicky to read it, and don’t mind my cheesiness. -Julia

Touche, Elise. BUT...
Ho-k, so this whole Lamb of God thing has put me in a bit of a tizzy. I WANT TO SEE THEM LIVE SO BAD I CAN BARELY STAND IT and just as predicted, the dates that they will be in the great state of New York are NO GOOD. However, here’s another option… April 17, 2009- Cepsum, Montreal, QC Canada for Lamb of God, eh? It would suck to go without Elise, but I could bring my boys from SU....

LET'S ALL PUT PRESSURE ON JULIA →
Julia always complains about how she’s never seen Lamb of God live.  Valid.  It’s one of her favorite bands.  So with their new album, Wrath, coming out next month, we anticipated an accompanying tour that hopefully wouldn’t interfere with her graduation/upcoming trip to South America.  Well, the dates were finally announced today….. May 8, 2009 - Roseland Ballroom - New...

Attn: Do-gooders and Decapitated fans! →
Time flies, and believe it or not it’s been almost a year since the bus accident that left Decapitated drummer Vitek dead and vocalist Covan seriously injured. Covan is still in the hospital in Poland, and I guess even rock stars need help paying for hospital bills. I was in and out of the hospital about a year ago as well with a ruptured appendix, and even though I can’t compare to...

Genghis Tron Infiltrate Hollywood in New... →
I just wanted to extend a little hometown love to Genghis Tron.  Talk about ‘the little band that could.’   Their MySpace might say they’re from Brooklyn, but Julia and I know these dudes are actually from up in our old stomping grounds in Poughkeepsie, NY.  Regardless, this music sounds really good…… Enjoy your royalties check, guys.  Congrats! -Elise

Julia: and i have a couple of crosses. they're right side up, but whatev

VH1 finally aired the Rock of Love Charm School Reunion last night.  I had read a few weeks ago that some shit went down between Sharon Osbourne and that Mega C**t Megan Hauserman…and did it ever!  Well played, Ms. Sharon. I love that bitch.  She can roll with RiB anytime she likes. -Elise
