These articles brought forth are for a few different reasons:
1. It is relevant music information that pertains to you as a reader, no matter the level of intent or the genre.
2. They are relevant to the music I would be currently listening to or a genre I have put some attention and focus on.
3. I am rather patriotic about my Canadian music, so that always comes as a first for me. I enjoy music from all parts of the world respectively, but I still have to promote local if I can. Canadian music rocks!
4. Because it's humorous and we can ALWAYS use a good laugh. Rarely will it be at someone's expense...but then again I am just the guy talking about it. They're the ones causing the comments.
So in closing, I trust you all will not read EVERY single article posted here. But I hope you find something of use here and keep the conversation going by forwarding it onto someone else. Click on each article heading for redirection to the full article. Cheers!

BLACK STONE CHERRY - New Song 'Me And Mary Jane' Available For Streaming:
"After touring the world behind three previous albums that we are extremely proud of, we feel this album best captures the live energy, honesty and vibe that encompasses our true musicianship." -BSC
Morrissey - "I Don't Know a Single Person Who Wants a Smiths Reunion!":
"I don't know a single person who wants a Smiths reunion! But, no, there aren't any bands I like to see again because your memory of them is how they were in their prime or at their best or at their most desperate, and you look to them to be someone that they no longer are."
Animals As Leaders Stream Studio Version Of New Song “Lippincott”:
Their new album “The Joy Of Motion” will be released March 25th, 2014 via Sumerian Records.
Beck Discusses Planned 'Song Reader' Compilations and "Uptempo" Follow-Up to 'Morning Phase':
"We've been working on a compilation of other people recording the songs. One with name people, and then one made by fans.
I hazard to say anything specific because I'm not really sure what's going to end up on the record. I'm still finding what it is. I'm trying to make songs that work for the live show, so they're more uptempo."
DAVE MUSTAINE's 'Symphony Interrupted' Performance With SAN DIEGO SYMPHONY - Official Poster Unveiled:
"When we first started talking about that, it was kind of in passing. I was in England, actually, and someone said they would be interested in seeing my interpretation of the classics, because I'm very classically influenced. It's what I like to listen to, but it's not like I played it. It was tossed around and it went from me being someone who would do a narrative of classical stuff to someone actually playing it. I was pretty excited, but then they sent over their first two songs that they want me to play, which was some Vivaldi stuff, and as I listened to it I was, like, 'This is really difficult stuff.'
When you're playing out of a guitar, it's a different mentality, and when you play it on a violin, the strings are tuned differently, so it's like going from playing tennis to handball. The same principle still, but a totally different finesse."
Kiss Cancel Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Performance over Lineup Dispute:
"Out of respect, Ace and Peter's recent statements demand a quick response to you, our fans.
Our intention was to celebrate the entire history of KISS and give credit to all members including long time present members Tommy Thayer and Eric Singer, and additionally Bruce Kulick and Eric Carr all who have made this band what it is, regardless of the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame's point of view.
Although KISS has moved forward far longer without them, Ace and Peter are at the very foundation of what we have built and this would all be impossible had they not been a part of it in the beginning.
It is over 13 years since the original lineup has played together in make-up and we believe the memory of those times would not be enhanced. Contrary to claims made through the media we have never refused to play with Ace and Peter.
We have spent 40 years dedicated to building KISS without quitting or wavering as the band has moved forward with huge tours and platinum albums through different important lineups for forty years, to this day.
KISS has always been a band unlike any other. That is why we started KISS. That is why we continue KISS. Being unlike other bands also means making choices and decisions unlike other bands.
This is understandably an emotional situation where there is no way to please everyone.
To bring this to a quick end, we have decided not to play in any line-up and we will focus our attention on celebrating our induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame.
We are excited and are looking forward to seeing you all on the KISS 40th Anniversary worldwide tour." -KISS
DREAM THEATER's MIKE MANGINI Endorses Frozen Ape's Newly Released Tempo Advance 2.0:
"Tempo Advance is and has always been the very backbone of my gig warmups and practice sessions because it keeps my mind occupied and focused much more than using a stand-alone, single click." -Mangini
DREAM THEATER Photo Book In The Works:
"Being able to do a book project with an iconic and influential band such as DREAM THEATER is beyond a honor. Cancer affects my life daily, so to be able to give back through my work on a project like this is a true blessing." -Rob Fenn
"We were introduced to Rob's work through Mark Abramson at Roadrunner. His photos are amazing and as soon as we found out about the cause, we were all immediately on board.
All of our lives have been affected by cancer in some way and all of us have lost loved ones to the disease. This is a great way for us to be a part of the crusade toward finding a cure, and we are looking forward to working together with Rob on the upcoming North American tour." -Jon Petrucci
Rob Zombie Unveils Cover Art For New Live DVD:

Footage for this DVD was recorded at two stops during the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival. (August 03rd The Woodlands, TX and August 04th Dallas, TX)

SOILWORK's BJÖRN 'SPEED' STRID Offers More Information On Upcoming DVD Shoot:
"We are nothing short of super excited to announce the recording of our first live DVD ever. This very special and unique evening will go down in beautiful Helsinki, Finland, where SOILWORK have always had very loyal fans and shared some great success through the years. The show will take place at The Circus on the 21st of March.
It's been a long time coming, considering we released our first album in 1998, but here it is!
We can't wait to share this special moment with you, our fans! The show will bring you songs from each and every album of our career. We also have some very special guests invited for the show as well that we can't wait to announce. In addition to this, we will randomly draw 25 people out of the 500 first people to enter the venue that will join the band and the crew for an after-show party!
Make sure you don't miss out on this... See you on the 21st of March in Helsinki, at The Circus. It's a date!"
MISS MAY I To Release 'Rise Of The Lion' In April:
"A lot of it could be considered leftfield for us. I won't go into detail because when you do that, people expect something that they may not particularly hear, but when we finished 'At Heart', we were all stoked and thought we'd thrown everything we had into it. After a couple of years touring and growing, we've come back to writing and have been adding different influences. There's some slower, heavier stuff, thrashier parts and no two songs sound the same. We're doing something to challenge ourselves and our listeners but please both, too." -Levi Benton
