#MetalMondays – Dream Theater – “A Nightmare to Remember” (2/3/13)

4th February

Check out this track by Dream Theater. It’s more of a ‘rock epic’ because it’s over 16-minutes long, but believe me it’s well worth it. Check out Mike Portnoy’s awesome drum cam video of the track below!

20th Century Fox announced today that they will be pushing back the release date of the upcoming comedy The Heat. The buddy cop film starring Melissa McCarthy and Sandra Bullock was originally scheduled to hit theaters April 5, but will now be released June 28.

Paul Fieg returns behind the camera to direct McCarthy after 2011′s smash hit Bridesmaids. Check out some Bridesmaids quotes to see the kind of comedy the two can produce together.

The move makes the Jurassic Park 3D re-release the only major release on April 5, with The Heat now competing with White House Down and Kick Ass 2. Watch The Heat trailer for more.



Metal Mondays: Metallica – “Damage Case” (1/28/13)

Mondays song of the week is Metallica’s cover of Motorhead’s “Damage Case.” The cover, which was performed for Lemmy’s private birthday party in 1996, was recorded live to 2-track tape during Metallica’s “Load” album recording sessions. It was released on the “Hero of the Day” single, and then re-released in 1998 for Metallica’s all cover album – “Garage Inc.”

After releasing their self titled last year, they have decided to give their fans what they’ve been waiting for – new music! Released on January 22nd, 2013, WALK THE MOON’s “Tightrope – EP” is already my favorite alternative album of 2013. Granted, it is only January 23rd and we still a long year ahead of us, but this is still a great collection of new music from the young band.

Track by track:

1. Tightrope – 5/5

Probably my favorite song off of the EP. It was included on their full album last year as well. This song is so upbeat and catchy, it captures the vibe of what alternative music is today.

2. Anywayican – 4/5
