It’s hard work being the vocalist of a progressive metal band. Unless you have a ridiculous range, pull your weight as a guitarist or kick some serious ass on the synth, you’re probably not going to receive the frontman kudos that comes so easily to your heavier brethren – from Corey Taylor to Ozzy and Dio. Such [...]
After a week of cautious pessimism, masters and forbears of hard rock (and music in general) Led Zeppelin, have announced a cinema release of their fabled 2007 one-off reunion at London’s O2 Arena. The film will be entitled Celebration Day, and will by flying to screens after a worldwide release on October 17th, roughly five years after the event took [...]
Almost four years after the release of the less-than-spectacular Quantum of Solace, a full trailer for the latest James Bond film, Skyfall, has been released.
