Murderdolls – To Release First New Album In 8 Years!!!

Murderdolls – To Release First New Album In 8 Years!!!

…Just when you thought all the fun was gone from rock music, you thought wrong, because the inimitable Murderdolls are back, emerging from a dormant period with their middle fingers to the sky, tongues planted firmly in their cheeks and ready to call out those that haunt today's predictable musical landscape. Their first album in eight years, entitled Women and Children Last, is set for release this summer through Roadrunner Records.

Murderdolls are the Frankenstein brainchild of Joey Jordison and partner-in-grime, Wednesday 13. The band sees Joey step away from his day job and masked role behind the kit in Slipknot to playing a low-slung lead guitar, while Wednesday serves as the frontman in their macabre rock 'n' roll circus. The duo are ready to breathe new life into the project with a brand new line-up, while their 'fuck you' attitude, devilish glamour and trademark black sense of humor remain firmly in tact.

Joey and Wednesday are excited to bring back their revamped musical monster, exclaiming, "We don't look at this as a return...this is REVENGE! The music scene today is as boring and stale as it was in 2002, when we first formed the band. This time around, everyone is the enemy!"

Comments Joey, "We've waited eight years to make sure, but this is the perfect time to bring Murderdolls back to the world. We've got nothing to lose and nothing to prove. So raise your fist along with us motherfuckers and sorry if you get a bloody nose along the way. It's about to get ugly! Women and Children Last!!!"

Murderdolls are in an undisclosed Los Angeles studio now, laying down tracks for Women and Children Last. Don't say you haven't been warned.

Here’s some shoot from there…

Slipknot drummer to join forces and tour with Rob Zombie this spring and summer!

Slipknot drummer to join forces and tour with Rob Zombie this spring and summer!

Slipknot drummer Joey Jordison will spend the spring and summer of 2010 pounding the skins for new labelmate Rob Zombie, who is embarking on a very busy touring schedule.

Zombie said, “Joey is an absolutely crushing drummer and I am thrilled to have him as part of the Zombie family. His amazing skills promise to take the live show to a whole new level of insanity.” Jordison also commented, saying, “I am honored, proud and excited to announce that I have joined the ranks as the new touring drummer for Rob Zombie. I’ve been a fan of Zombie’s since the beginning. I’ve toured with them and have always wanted to play for them. When John 5 called me up to ask if I knew any drummers I could recommend, I said, only half-jokingly, ‘Yeah, me!”

Jordison is universally recognized as not only one of the best drummers in hard rock, but as one of the most talented skinsmen in music, period. He will be sitting behind the kit for several appearances and tours throughout the year, namely the “Gruesome Twosome” tour, which features Zombie along with his longtime pal, Alice Cooper, which begins April 26 in Canada and runs through May 5 in Wyoming. Following that historic tour, Jordison will tour alongside Zombie as part of the 2010 Rock Star Energy Drink Mayhem Festival, which Zombie is co-headlining with Korn. That tour kicks off July 10 in Southern California and runs through August 14 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

“This show and set-list is mind blowing, and what better way to kick off than with the ‘Gruesome Twosome’ tour with horror-rock legend Alice Cooper,” Jordison said. “I want to thank all the Slipknot fans for their support and the Rob Zombie fans for welcoming me in. The Demonoid Phenomenon is on its way!”

Jordison will make his debut with Zombie at the 2010 Revolver Golden Gods Awards, held on April 8, at Club Nokia in Los Angeles. Zombie will be closing out the evening’s awards ceremony with what is sure to be a “must see” performance.

Slipknot - New interview with Paul Gray!

Slipknot - New interview with Paul Gray!

Ibanez spent some time talking to Paul Gray at NAMM this past weekend.

Here’s a part of it…

Ibanez: What originally inspired you to start playing music?

Paul: I've been a music fan as far back as I can remember. I think the band that actually made me pick up an instrument was Slayer. I saw them on the Hell Awaits tour, and I knew I wanted to do that. So I got a guitar. My first guitar ended up getting traded for meth, not by me but by some friends of mine [laughs]. There were other influences, but that show really was what started it all for me.

Ibanez: I know that you write a lot of the music in Slipknot. How does that process usually work for you?

Paul: I write a lot of stuff at home during the time off. I'll have a bunch of riffs, full songs, and partial pieces put together. When it's getting close to time to record, Joey and I will meet and put some basic songs together just to get something started. Everybody can come in and put their input in on all the ideas, too. We write on the spot, too. Somebody might just be noodling around, and we'll start putting something together based off of that idea. There's no real set way of doing it.

Slipknot – Video interview with Corey!

Slipknot – Video interview with Corey!

Independent music record label Indie Power recently conducted an interview with Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor.

Watch the chat below.

Also available is performance footage from Slipknot's October 23, 2009 concert at the Event Center in San Jose, California.

"I think Slipknot is the best therapy I could ever have wanted in my whole life," Taylor recently told Straight.com. "It continues to allow me to really figure out things about myself. You know, get really macro and let a lot of stuff go. In a lot of ways, the insanity of Slipknot allows me to have the humanity of my real life."

Regarding why Slipknot continues to have a large and devoted fan base more than a decade since the release of the band's self-titled debut, Taylor said, "Too many bands are willing to sell their fan base out to get what they want, monetarily speaking. Too many bands are willing to destroy the foundation of their career just to have a little scratch upfront. And that's just fucking sad. To me, the great thing about having our feet in two worlds is that we never left our original fans behind. We never sold them out — we took them with us. And in doing that, we showed them respect. They were the ones that kept us here when things were dark, when nobody else gave us a chance."

Slipknot – Corey’s interview on Rock 101 Kufo!

Slipknot – Corey’s interview on Rock 101 Kufo!

On Tuesday, October 13, Slipknot/Stone Sour frontman Corey Taylor took over the "Cort And Fatboy" show on Portland's Rock 101 KUFO, picking all the music played on the radio station from 3:00 p.m. to 4:15 p.m. Corey talked about his love of many kinds of music, his extensive comic collection, his karaoke preferences, his taste for chicken, his video game skills, his opinion on the state of rock music and his deep feelings for Dave Grohl.

Here is the list of songs Corey played on KUFO:

* "Check My Brain" – Alice in Chains

* "And We Danced" - The Hooters

* "You're In Love" - Ratt

* "Jessie's Girl" - Rick Springfield

* "Snuff" - Slipknot

* "Beat It" - Michael Jackson

* "Pennyroyal Tea" - Nirvana

* "Monkeywrench" - Foo Fighters

* "State of Love and Trust" - Pearl Jam

* "Sex on Fire" – Kings Of Leon

* "Know Your Enemy" – Green Day

* "Your Love" - The Outfield

Corey will get hitched to his fiancée Stephanie in November 2009. This will be Taylor's second marriage.

Taylor, 35, has two children: A daughter named Angie, born in 1992, and a son named Griffin, born in 2002, whom he had with his first wife, Scarlett.

Taylor divorced Scarlett — whom he married on March 11, 2004 in a small ceremony at the Botanical center in Des Moines, Iowa — in early 2007. In the November 2008 issue of Revolver magazine, he is quoted as saying, "After I got sober, I realized my relationship wasn't right for me. My wife and I had damaged each other too much."
