Axl Rose's Birthday!

Axl Rose

Axl Rose dosen’t need much of a presentation. Guns N’ Roses is one of the most iconic rockbands, with songs that everyone knows and they created one of rock n’ rolls most epic albums, ”Appetite For Destruction”. 

Now, I know there’s a lot of opinions to the bespoken Guns N’ Roses reunion. Some thinks they should do a ”Mötley Crüe” and end it before they become a bunch of watered down, old has beens. 

Me, on the other hand, are quite exited about this reunion. 

Most people wants to see Axl and Slash on the same stage again. I would love to see the original line up reunite. This reunion will, so far, ”officially” only feature Duff McKagan and Slash as ”original” members, apart from Axl Rose, but he is Guns N’ Roses. Who knows, Izzy and Adler might join them... Fingers crossed. 

If you’re a bit tired of Guns N’ Roses (how can you possible be?) and you’d still like to hear Axl Rose sing, you can hear him on Sebastian Bach’s (first lead singer in Skid Row) second solo album, ”Angel Down” from 2007. Axl Rose participated on three songs on the album. He actually wrote and sang on the song ”Stuck Inside” and sang on a cover of the Aerosmith song ”Back in the Saddle” and he sings on the song I think is the best one on the album, ”(Love Is) A Bitchslap”.
It’s a swingy and appealing rock song with great music and lyrics filled with attitude. It’s perfect if you’re a fan of both Skid Row and Guns N’ Roses.  

Happy Brithday Axl Rose! 





I couldn’t resist, it can never be to much of Guns N’ Roses!

Johnny Rotten's Birthday!

Happy Birthday to Johnny Rotten!

Today on January 31st it’s Johnny Rotten’s birthday. I'm going to celebrate that by playing one of my favorite Sex Pistols songs, "No Feelings" from the epic punk album "Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols". It's also the only official full length album that the Sex Pistols ever did, released in October 1977. 

You can hear "No Feelings" and see the video to the song in the clip below.

Latest News From The Rockworld!

Papa Roach enters the studio on February the 1st

The American alternative rock/metal band will enter the studio on February the 1st and start working on their ninth full length album. 

In December last year Papa Roach released a music video for the third single ”Falling Apart” from their latest album ”F.E.A.R”, 2015.

I’m hoping that Papa Roach’s new record will go back to their early sound instead of this techno/modern thing they’ve got going on now. I don’t think the latest album is that good and would love to hear them go back to that old Papa Roach sound, but with a new take. Unless they really get it together with this new ”sound”, but another album that sounds just like F.E.A.R would be a disappointment. That is not the style for Papa Roach. 

I would have put in the video for ”Falling Apart” but I thought the video sucked, and I also thought that it didn’t had anything to do with the song. So instead of watching a young woman run with a huge bag of money and then bleed to death, (sorry for spoling the end) you can see the video for their song ”Kick In The Teeth”, where we get to see Jacoby (the lead singer) throw around some trashcans, walk down a street, bump in to various people, get beaten up and still manage to stay on his feet, while singing. All that in the clip below. I really like that video because they try to say whatever life throws at you, you are strong enough to take it. Remember that any kind of violence is not okay! Enjoy!
