King of TMI
I’m beginning to think this guy is just fucking with us. There’s no way in hell he could possibly think that any of us want to know about this stuff.
First rocker Pete Wentz told us he likes wearing sis-in-law Jessica Simpson’s shoes. Then last week he revealed all about his “awesome” sex life with wife Ashlee … and NOW he wants us to know he’s tasted her breast milk. Speaking on Sirius’ “The Monday Mash Up” show, Wentz described her milk as “weird” and “soury,” adding, “The baby [newborn Bronx Mowgli] loves it, it’s the only thing he’s had a chance to have.”
Ok, look…even if you are doing this stuff, thats cool…whatever floats your boat man. But, please stop announcing it to the world. You’re making it very difficult for me to defend you and your band when people give me shit for listening to your music.

Racist white power asshole Ken McLellan and his band Brutal Attack (don’t worry, there’s no reason that band’s name should even ring a bell) have recently secured online distribution of their music. This is a huge step for them seeing as how barely ANY stores will carry their racist hate music.
For $9.99, you can download Brutal Attack’s anti-immigrant, pro-white Tales of Glory from iTunes. It’s a buck cheaper on Amazon. A physical copy is yours for $16 on CD Baby. For McLellan and others like him, white-power music’s availability through mainstream online retailers holds the promise of a success immeasurable in money. “We’re far more interested in spreading our point of view,” explains Jeff Schoep, manager of NSM88 Records, which sells music online by bands like Grinded Nig and Inborn Hate. (Schoep is also the leader of the National Socialist Movement.) “If people can hear communist sympathizers like Rage Against the Machine on iTunes, then they should have the right to hear music that celebrates white culture. The Beastie Boys and other Jewish artists might support banning ideas, but we don’t. We support the American way.”
Yeah. Being a communist sympathizer and a racist are the EXACT SAME THING. What a moron this guy is. Hold on. It gets better.
McLellan, though, thinks his music’s subculture status is due to change. “Being sold in mainstream places shows that white power isn’t so taboo anymore,” he says. “Attitudes are changing.”
What rock is this guy living under? Attitudes are changing alright. But, judging by the color of our new president’s skin, they aren’t changing the way this McLellan is thinking.
A story came out this week that the RIAA is going to cease filing lawsuits against hospitalized teenagers for sharing music on the internet. Instead, the RIAA is going to start making “backroom” deals with ISPs that would allow them to shut off your internet for up to a year (after two warnings) if caught sharing music.
Welcome to Nazi Germany, everyone.

King Fucktard
Now I’m not the biggest Coldplay fan in the world, but I enjoy their music. This week, King of the Inbred White Trash Retards Corey Taylor was interviewed on British television and decided to take the opportunity to let us know how he feels about the new Coldplay record (as if any of us cared).
“That is one of the most self-celebratory pieces of **** I’ve ever f**king heard in my entire f**king life.
“Go suck a f**king ****. Are you watching Martin? Suck it. Go eat a bag of ****.
“I f**king hate that album. It’s music to wipe your ass to.”
Music to wipe your ass to. What a coincidence…thats EXACTLY what I think every time I hear a SlipKnot song. Had anyone I respected musically been the person to criticize the new Coldplay, I probably would have let it go. But the fact that it was Corey Taylor just made my blood boil. This is coming from a guy that has a TRASH CAN player in his band. He couldn’t even give a valid reason for not liking it aside from the fact that it was “self-celebratory.” Oh yeah, Corey, your percussionist’s statement about this past summer’s Mayhem Fest wasn’t self-celebratory at all.
“It’s a bunch of bands opening for Slipknot,” Crahan told Metal File last week, during a brief break from the studio, where the band is working on its fourth, still-untitled LP, which should arrive in stores by summer’s end. “We’re headlining, as it should be. Sorry — it’s a Slipknot show, kids. We’ve been gone for two years, and you’ve all had the chance to do what you’re going to do. But now we’re back; step in line. That’s what’s up. We’re the DNA that keeps whatever cell this is moving. Period. “With me, I’ve been out with a lot of bands, and I don’t care,” he continued. “We’re back, and it just happens to be this thing called the Rockstar Energy Mayhem festival. That’s cool. But we didn’t want them, they wanted us. Everyone wants our f—ing money and our kids. We’re playing a show, and a bunch of great bands are playing too. But we’re back, so get out of our way. Call it what you will, but we’re headlining. It’s our show, and we’re here to kill you.”
In summation, SlipKnot is one of the biggest pieces of **** I’ve ever f**king heard in my entire f**king life. Go suck a f**king ****. Are you reading, Taylor? Suck it. Go eat a bag of ****.

Twilight Crazies (Is that a guy or a girl second from the left?)
This has less to do with music and more to do with film, but MTV is involved so (technically) its music related. MTV News named their Woman of the Year for 2008 a couple of days ago and much to the shock of EVERYONE it wasn’t Britney Spears (I guess they figured giving her 3 VMAs she didn’t deserve was good enough). No, instead MTV chose “Twilighters” as the Woman of the Year for 2008.
Twilighters were named MTV News’ Woman of the Year because their obsession with the books, movies and actors laid the groundwork for what is now a phenomenon rivaling “Harry Potter” and “Star Wars.” And their undeniable anticipation for the next film, “New Moon,” only means that their power and influence will continue to grow
Rivaling STAR WARS????? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! MTV must be out of their fucking minds. The only possible way Twilight has “rivaled” Star Wars is by having a bigger opening weekend than Episode I: The Phantom Menace. However Episdoes II and III BOTH had bigger opening weekends, and I’m sure if you factored in inflation the original trilogy would beat Twilight out too. Also, here’s 29 other movies that had bigger opening weekends than Twilight:
The Dark Knight
Spider-Man 3
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest
Shrek the Third
Spider-Man
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End
Shrek 2
X-Men: The Last Stand
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Iron Man
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
The Matrix Reloaded
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Spider-Man 2
X2: X-Men United
The Passion of the Christ
I Am Legend
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
The Da Vinci Code
The Simpsons Movie
Austin Powers in Goldmember
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
The Lost World: Jurassic Park
300
Transformers
The Incredibles
Finding Nemo

Panic! Panic at the Disco are writing for their next record.
Hey, I have a suggestion guys. How about THIS time we don’t try to sound EXACTLY like The Beatles?
Good God. Was anybody able to make it all the way through Pretty. Odd. without wanting to strangle these make-up wearing, boy-kissing fairies for blatantly ripping off one of the greatest bands of all time? Don’t get me wrong. I really dug Panic at the Disco’s first effort. At the time it was actually quite original sounding music….until every indie/pop punk band on the fucking planet starting sounding just like them. So I guess the logical next step was to release an album with an opening song that they may as well have titled “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.”

The word is Gym Class Heroes frontman Travis McCoy proposed to long-time girlfriend and massive tool Katy Perry in Paris recently.
Katy Perry’s girl-kissing days are over. We can confirm the singer’s worst-kept secret —her engagement to Gym Class Heroes front man Travis McCoy. After giving her a yellow diamond promise ring this summer, the rapper popped the question recently in Paris by kissing Perry with a massive ring in his mouth. How romantic … and unsanitary.
Uh, gross? I’m not talking about the ring in the mouth (although that is rather disgusting), I’m referring to the fact that Travis wants to spend the rest of his life with Katy Perry. Its a great career move for her though. Because when Capitol Records inevitably drops her ass in a couple of years at least she’ll be married to someone who knows a dude that owns a record label.
UPDATE: Katy Perry shot down rumors that she and Travis McCoy were engaged via her blog. Thank God. I knew Travis couldn’t have been that stupid.

New (emo) Music Tuesday
Fall Out Boy and the All-American Rejects BOTH released their new records today in an apparent attempt to bring about the apocalypse. And My Chemical Romance appears to be in on it as they re-released 2004′s Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge on vinyl today as well. But, in all seriousness the Fall Out Boy album is pretty good, so go pick it up today.
Kanye Sucks it Up on SNL
Come on people, what did you expect? This dude’s had a song on the radio for months now that showcases his ability to use auto-tune and a vocoder and you expect him to sound good live? Pssssshhhh!
Gabe Saporta’s voice is all kinds of fucked up.
Cobra Stars….fuck that… former MIDTOWN frontman Gabe Saporta will be going into surgery tomorrow morning to fix the vocal chords that he has so carelessly destroyed over the last 10 years or so. This happened to Davey Havok a few years ago, but HE’S IN AFI. Somehow I can’t see Cobra Starship’s indie-dance-pop-rock taking a huge toll on a singer’s voice. I’m just gonna assume it was all those years in Midtown and Cobra was just the straw that broke the camel’s back. Or maybe it’s all the cocaine.
