Helps Hackers |

software.
...Of more concern to users, it opens Windows
machines up to attacks from hackers using Trojans, programs written that
mask malicious code to sneak it onto unsuspecting machines. Two Trojans
were discovered by BitDefender Labs yesterday (Nov. 10), preying upon British

reporting that Sharon Osbourne has launched a scathing verbal attack on
the late Christian missionary Mother Teresa because she is sickened by
people who try to be "everything to everybody".
"I didn't like Mother Teresa. See? Somebody
didn't like her. Ugly old c**t in sandals."
Osbourne named pop queen and Kabbalah devotee
Madonna as one of three "nightmare" dinner guests, according to The Miami
Herald.
"I would like to punch her," Osbourne told
the British GQ. "She is so full of [bleep]. She's into Kabbalah one minute,
she's a Catholic the next. She'll be a Hindu soon, no doubt."[$haron is
such a class act, see full story for more BS from the Yoko of Metal]-

| HHH
Special |
antiMusic reports: Since the dawn of antiMusic
our main purpose has been to expose great bands and artists. It has never
mattered if they were playing arenas or the bar down the street. With that
same spirit a couple months back Mark Hensch kicked off Hensch's Hometown
Heros to showcase exceptional indie and unsigned bands from around the
globe. As Mark says, "Rock is not dead, it's just unsigned!" Over the next
couple weeks we will be highlighting a new HHH review each week day to
help spread the word not only about this great new series but also the
artists covered! Hope you enjoy and discover some new favorite new under
that radar bands!
Mark kicks off with his first review of
Ogre. As always we'll give you a sneak peak here but you'll have to click
the full story link for more.
Ogre - Ogre Demo 2000
Ogre comes across as so much more interesting
than their contemporizes as for the most part, virtually all of their peers
in the underground rock/metal scenes have forgotten the existence of the
music they joyously peddle. I think its safe to say that after hearing
Ogre, there's no doubt in my mind that the 1970's rock scene never died,
but rather was buried so deeply under all the competition it took a decade
or two to claw itself out. This is where Ogre excels; like their namesake,
they are forced to overcome vast odds simply by scraping past it with their
unyielding sense of what constitutes rock.
The Church of Ogre worships at the altar
of Black Sabbath, under the sign of the vintage Pentagram, and wearing
robes of Deep Purple. Hymns include such classic fare as Cirith Ungol (a
big one lyrically in my opinion, though probably not at first glance),
and a tad of AC/DC, Rush, and Led Zeppelin. More contemporary favorites
see the touch of Abdullah, Witchcraft, and maybe even YOB. -
