All That Remains Frontman Slams Jenny McCarthy Over Vaccinations

Like many other advocates of vaccination he blames the anti-vaccination movement, at least in part, on celebrity Jenny McCarthy. "It's her fault! She's the one who started the whole 'You're gonna get autism' thing. So, nice f***in' job, Jenny! But, you know, it's science. It's a real thing. It's like this: polio isn't a problem anymore. You know why? Because of the polio vaccine!"

He continues, "It seems to me that Rand Paul is saying that vaccinations are good things, generally, people should get vaccinated, but it shouldn't be mandatory. As much as I don't think that the government should be in the business of saying 'You have to do this,' when I have kids, I'm gonna vaccinate them.

"I heard someone on the news this morning suggest a fairly realistic solution: if you don't want to vaccinate your kids, they can't go to public school. I would take that a step further, and say if your kids aren't going to public school, that should be reflected in your taxes. I like the idea that if you want your kids to go to public school, you have to vaccinate them. That, to me, seems fair." Read more here.

The Walking Dead Mid-Season Premiere Preview Goes Online

This weekend, TWD returns, and AMC has just posted the first two minutes of the mid-season premiere (watch the video above). The first thing we see is a shovel, digging in the dirt, presumably digging her grave.

Soon we see Beth's sister Maggie (Lauren Cohan) weeping, and we hear Father Gabriel Stokes (played by Seth Gilliam, and BTW, we don't trust this guy, do we?) reading a eulogy. Noah (Tyler James Williams), Beth's friend from the hospital, weeps.

"We know if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens," says Father Gabriel, calmly, as we see photos of what seems to be a young Noah with another boy, possibly a friend or brother. Read more and watch the preview

Motley Crue Jeopardy Clue Clip Goes Viral

"Girls, girls, girls, long legs and burgundy lips," the normally reserved Trebek read out loud. "Girls, girls, girls, dancin' down on the Sunset Strip. Girls, girls, girls."

The slight inflections and dramatic emphasis he gave to the words gave him away--Trebek was having fun with this. And the internet is reacting. A video clip of the reading is making the rounds, and it's even earned the attention of Motley Crue's Nikki Sixx, who called it "amazing." Watch the clip

Purple Release DMT Video

"I held so much anger in me for so many years until I finally graduated from high school, started partying a lot more and raging on the music," says Hanna. "And that is what Purple is all about. You don't know how many times I've heard 'Hey, you drum pretty good�for a girl'.

"It's that phrase: 'for a girl'. It doesn't make me mad though; it's funny. It just makes me want to be more bad-ass than the boys. Anger can be extremely inspiring that way."

Moon Duo Streaming New Song 'Slow Down Low'

Founders Ripley Johnson and Sanae Yamada are joined by drummer John Jeffrey, who first appeared on last year's live album. They say Shadow Of The Sun was written during "a rare and uneasy rest period, devoid of the constant adrenaline of performing live and the stimulation of traveling through endless moving landscapes."

But the situation offered them an opportunity for reflection, which served them well when they decided to record in "a dark Portland basement." Check out the song here.

Marilyn Manson Made Borland Miss Limp Bizkit

The guitarist has left the band twice - first in 2001 then again in 2006 - but returned in 2009 after spending eight months in Manson's band. Borland tells Metal Insider: "When I was in high school I was a big Marilyn Manson fan. And when I was out of Bizkit I got to be the guitar player in Marilyn Manson. That was the last thing I did before I went back to Limp Bizkit.

"I went, 'Oh - I'm standing in a yard where I thought the grass was greener, a place I thought I'd like more, and I don't.' That was a big realisation, to go, 'This is what I've wanted to do since a handful of years after I started playing. This is the band I wanted to be like or be in.' And it wasn't what I thought it was, working with Manson." Read more here.

Neil Young Duets Classic Song With Jimmy Fallon

Dressed in vintage Young attire, Fallon began the tune in a lone spotlight before the real Neil jumped in to exchange verses and looks during the performance.

Young reappeared later in the episode for an interview to promote his new high quality audio music player, PONO. The guitarist closed the show playing "Who's Gonna Stand Up?" - from his latest album, "Storytone" - with The Roots and an expanded band that included a horn section and backup singers.

Singled Out: Seek Irony's Devil In Me

"Devil in Me" is a song about addictions - whether it is drugs, alcohol, gambling, sex or a love infatuation - you name it. Every person and what the "Devil in Me" symbolizes for him/her. I decided to write it up kinda like a relationship between a man and a woman to give the addiction a life of its own in the song.

I felt it had a cooler storyline by turning the addiction into a living personality describing the addiction almost like a person with schizophrenic behaviour that has to go through a daily struggle of arguments and battles with that "Devil" inside, in order not to fall back into the addiction again and again.

I remember "Devil in Me" coming together very naturally, almost "too" naturally because usually what happens when I write songs is I come with a general idea for a melody and only then dive into writing the actual lyrics for it thus giving the song its soul. In Devil in Me's case, I remember us in the studio, writing the Electronica Drum beat plus the main guitar riff for the verse and chorus and after listening to it a few times, as we are recording it, that chorus melody just popped up in my head WITH the words "you are, you are, you are the devil in me, taking over" and right at the moment, that pretty much defined what the song was about for me. So in this Devil in Me's case, I guess it already had a soul of its own.

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself hereand learn more about the band right here!
