It's a similar situation to the current ordeal of Lamb of God frontman Randy Blythe, who's been behind bars in Prague since June. Blythe remains in jail without charge in the Czech Republic having paid $200,000 bail � which was later doubled � a month ago. He was arrested in connection with an incident in 2010 when fan Daniel Nosek voluntarily invaded Lamb of God's stage several times, during which he may have sustained the head injury which led to his death four weeks later.

Muse are known for their unconventional approach to rock music, with singer and guitarist Matt Bellamy playing the most outlandish guitar riffs with the help of various effect processors, like for example the outlandish riff in their 2006 song "Map of the Problematique."

The band recently parted ways with singer Geoff Tate after 31 years, amid claims of frustration at the direction the band had taken. Tate contends that his former bandmates weren't submitting ideas and had never spoken up to say they weren't happy with how things were going. Queensr�che claims, among other things, that their ideas were being brushed aside in favor of outside writers. The conflict became physical in Brazil in May, with Tate being fired in June. The matter is before the courts but for now, Queensr�che have upheld the right to continue to use the band name for now.

Waits shared a photo of himself in a bit of a pirate outfit, wearing an eye patch, smoking a cigar, with a sword drawn and at the ready. The caption on the photo reads "Coming August 7."

He continued, "It's sometimes hard to tell those stories out of context because, during times of drug and drink, there was a lot of crazy stuff that went on. I'll give you a perfect example, I'll give you something that doesn't give anything away.

The 13-song effort kicks off with the lead single, "Hell Or Hallelujah," which is out now.

My brother and I once wrote a song for my sister upon high school graduation, honestly it was a really good song. It was a 'the world is yours go find it' type of song. I wanted to continue in that vein and approach this song as motivational song to try to show people that they do not have to be a slave to their circumstances or past. We are not our fathers or mothers, we are not what we came out of; we can stop the forward progression of apathy and change it.

I constantly think about all the decision I had to make in early high school, I remember feeling how heavy they were, how weighty. But now I look back on those 'hard times' and laugh. I would give anything for the lack of responsibility and carefree moments that those formidable years exude. The funny thing is that I believe in 20 years from now I will look back at these times and laugh at how good I had it. In other words our personal circumstances may feel insurmountable right this second but in time we will see that life simple works out the way it should.

These are some of the best lyrics on the record, so I felt inclined to include them:

KNEW THEN KNOW NOW

Life is beautiful open your eyes whether you see it believe it or not

It's not somewhere out there; it's them by your side, its here in today its there in your smile

Take all of it in, let it all go, where you end up well nobody knows

dance like you care, act like you don't. if life wants to drowned well pretend that you float

if I knew then what I know now

I would tell tell myself again

life works out the way it should

if I could go back in time awhile

I would tell myself to rest awhile

don't worry about all the have been what could

life works out the way it should

life is here and gone, no one denies, we live we learn we love then we die

so while were still young lets take on the town lets travel the world follow the sun don't quit till we're there, I know it seems long but this road only takes those who are still strong feeling the wind brushing your face this is a freefall not a human race.
