Penthouse |
Day in Rock reports: In the upcoming June
issue of Penthouse, Godsmack’s hard-living frontman, Sully Erna, comes
clean about addiction, infidelity and rock-star perks.
Here is what Sully told Penthouse about
what their new record’s title, Four, really means…
“When we were at the height of hooking
up w/girls every night, if one walked by who wasn’t so hot, our old head
of security used to hold up four fingers, meaning she’s a four out of ten.
It just became a thing.” [that's just some of the fun to be had, pick up
the June issue for the full interview and you know what else!]-

Morning” among others and a prolific recording artist in his own. [see

upcoming debut full length record “Nocturne” The Human Abstract has released
a new song- Crossing The Rubicon on their Myspace page. The song is just
a small taste of the album which will be released by Hopeless Records in

and Me, Black Dahlia Murder) and mixed by Eric Rachel (Atreyu, Every Time
I Die, The Dillinger Escape Plan).
The Human Abstract’s new recording is hitting
the metal scene with full force. Influenced by American and European metal,
the band draws inspiration from progressive and classical music creating
an extremely creative style that is as much technical as it is powerful.

Meeting: Eric Bodrero |
antiMusic reports: A lot of people work hard
to make antiMusic what it is. So with our 8th anniversary we felt it was
time to spotlight each writer so you can get to know them a little better.
Over the next few weeks we will be posting a small portion of each staff
person's new profile page. So let's begin and get to know Eric Bodrero
a little better.
Eric (a.k.a. irk) is from Phoenix, AZ and
has been with antiMusic for 1 year, three months. The first CD he purchased
was an early Thompson Twins record and his first concert was Billy Joel*.
He lists The Cure, Ministry/Lard, The Smiths/Morrissey, They Might Be Giants,
Pavement, The Church, Boards of Canada, Grandaddy, New Order and Oingo
Boingo as his Top 10 Favorite artist. His musical pet peeves are "Underground
bands that I like that go big and garner a huge (usually mainstream) audience.
Coldplay is a band that comes to mind in that regard. Or, bands I like
that get thrust into car commercials. ". His favorite parts of antiMusic
are "day in rock, waiting for my awesome new review to appear, only to
read it and question just what the hell I was thinking. ", click the full
story link to learn more about Eric and discover what he equates Metallica's
St. Anger to and a lot more!- Click
