Rated Punks |
punkbands reports: Yesterday, the korean-based
punk band "Rux" wrecked havoc on live tv. They were playing a set for a
live music program called "Music Camp" on South Korea's largest tv network,
MBC. In an unprecedented affront to Korea's conservative mores, two members
of a punk rock band lived up to their music's history of subversion when
they exposed their private parts on live TV during family viewing time
on Saturday. [see full story for more]- Click

siN's metal news reports: Canada's 3 INCHES
OF BLOOD have posted the following message on their official website:...
Matt Wood (GOATSBLOOD) is no longer the drummer for 3 INCHES OF BLOOD.
Matt informed us last month that he would be leaving the band once we got
home at the end of June. The reasons given were both musical and personal,
but there's no animosity between us. We respect Matt's decision, but are
moving forward and still playing. Filling in the vacant percussion spot
is Alexei Rodriguez. Formerly a skin basher with the likes of CATHARSIS
and WALLS OF JERICHO[see full story for more]- Click

| Cold
Pain |
Cornerstone reports: After taking a couple
years off, Cold are coming back big time with their upcoming album, A Different
Kind of Pain. Produced by Michael " Elvis" Baskette (Chevelle, Iggy Pop,
and Puddle of Mudd), it brings along with it two years of growth for the
band and a maturity not matched in their previous work. Basically, it's
louder, deeper and bigger than anything they've done before. It comes out
August 30th.

| Madison
Paige Seek New Blood |
press release reports: MADISON PAIGE, who
have made a name for themselves with their unique blend of arena rock influences
and modern sensibilities, have officially parted ways with guitarist Damon
Valley and bassist Will Arkosy. All parties are describing the split, which
is being attributed to "musical differences," as "extremely amicable."
Drummer Richie Rivera, who remains in the band along with singer Paul Caroul,
elaborates:
"It's always tough saying goodbye,
but luckily in our case we'll never have to. While our professional relationship
has come to an end, we remain great friends, which is ultimately more important
that any band could ever be. We're just traveling on two separate musical
paths, neither one less valid than the other. Paul and I are throwing 110%
of our support toward all their future musical endeavors, while we continue
to make the kind of high-quality melodic hard rock that we originally set
out to do. The end result will be that audiences will get two better bands
out of the deal; so everybody wins!"[see full story for more]-

| Stooges
Reissues |
press release reports: The Stooges' provocative
mix of aggressive nihilism and primal rhythms scared the hell out of America
when the Detroit quartet-led by the legendary Iggy Pop-careened onto the
music scene in 1969. The few brave souls who didn't flee in terror from
the sound were lucky witnesses to the dawning of punk rock. Rhino Records
pays tribute to the band with deluxe editions of the proto-punk trailblazer's
THE STOOGES and the group's classic follow-up, FUN HOUSE.
Each expanded and remastered two-disc set
includes the original album along with a bonus disc filled with rarities
and unissued tracks. Both sets are available August 16 at regular retail
outlets and at www.rhino.com for a suggested list price of $19.98.[see

| Warren
Zevon Tribute |
press release reports: Wampus Multimedia introduces
Hurry Home Early: the Songs of Warren Zevon. Featuring 13 Zevon classics
interpreted by emerging artists from the U.S. and England, Hurry Home Early
focuses on Zevon's contribution to literate, modern songcraft, and tracks
his 35-year journey as acerbic troubadour and cynical romantic.
Hurry Home Early traces Zevon's career
from the late 1960s until his untimely death from mesothelioma, an inoperable
lung cancer, in 2003. From Phil Cody's "Splendid Isolation" to Robb Johnson's
"Suzie Lightning," the CD tells the story of an artist torn between hopeful
and dark impulses, locked in a struggle between heart and mind. From Tom
Flannery's "Boom Boom Mancini" to Neil Luckett's "Mutineer," it explores
the emotional interior of a composer who has been called the Hunter S.
Thompson of audio journalism. [see full story for more]-
