Black Sabbath Album Set For June Release

January 14th, 2013 Dan Bogosian

Over the weekend, classic rock and early heavy metal legends Black Sabbath announced that their next album would come out in June. The album, titled 13, is produced by Rick Rubin, famed for his work ranging from the Beastie Boys to Metallica.

Also announced this weekend was Black Sabbath’s studio drummer; Rage Against The Machine‘s Brad Wilk will sit on the throne for the album. I’m not sure how Wilk’s hip hop influenced, laid back style will groove with Sabbath, but time will tell. Former drummer Bill Ward quit after months of venting his frustrations publicly. …

Gogol Bordello Expect Album Release In May 2013

October 26th, 2012 Dan Bogosian

Gypsy punks Gogol Bordello have told Rolling Stone that they expect their next album to come out in May of 2013. The album, which won’t be produced by Rick Rubin but instead by his assistant Andrew Sheps, has a tentative title of Pura Vida Conspiracy. It will be their first full album stateside since 2010′s Trans-Continental Hustle.

It should be noted that singer Eugene Hütz hasn’t acted in a film since 2008, either. Given how much time it’s been since they released a new project, the release comes with some expectations. Let’s hope it lives up to their …

October 26th, 2012 Dan Bogosian

Former heavy metal and current Rick Rubin act Metallica have gone independent (maybe blink 182 will do the same?). They have formally announced they have started their own label – although they haven’t said if the still untitled label will be signing other acts, or just being used as a means to release their new material.

They’ll be kicking off their independence with a concert release on DVD and Blu Ray. It was filmed for the Death Magnetic Tour and will be released on December 10. The band stated “There are still some i’s [sic] being dotted …

October 2nd, 2012 Dan Bogosian

80s metal, 90s rock, and present day eh band Metallica have released their intentions to begin working on a new album. Drummer Lars Ulrich said it is unlikely to arrive until 2014 – but based on the history of the band, it might even be longer.
