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!
Nine Inch Nails Share “Sanctified” Live Performance From ‘Austin City Limits’ Episode:
"We never thought we’d see the day when Nine Inch Nails would set foot on the ACL stage. I mean, they never did television for 25 years! I came away from this show having the greatest respect for Trent Reznor. He’s one of the most focused, intense and creative artists I’ve ever worked with.” -Terry Lickona (executive producer)

Avenged Sevenfold Planning “Waking The Fallen” 10th Anniversary Reissue & New DVD:
“We’re going to put something together for the 10 year anniversary of “Waking The Fallen“, which is about 11 or 12 years now. We’ve been trying to think of something we could put together and we found some old demos that we did with Teppei from Thrice before we even did that record.
We also found some old footage with Jimmy playing some old shows at The Henry Fonda Theater in L.A., and the Ventura Theater. We’ll put together a cool DVD and some demo tracks and re-release “Waking The Fallen” for newer fans of the band that haven’t gotten that or don’t know about the history of the band.
[The DVD] is going to encompass the whole world that we’ve been filming for the last 5 years being in all these different countries with our camera guy. That’ll be a fun thing I think we’re going to film some big shows — I think we’re filming Mexico City coming up and we have some other shows we’re going to film and kind of intertwine the live performance with this huge DVD we want to do. That will probably come out before Christmas.” -M. Shadows

"Maximum Overload" is due out on August 19th, 2014 via Metal Blade Records.

We then looked around and no one was saying a word, they were all looking at more screens on tablets, laptops and mobile phones, there’s no escaping it, it’s complete information overload!” -Herman Li
