Ozzy Osbourne Making New TV Show

"I just felt like playing some rock 'n' roll for a few days," says Blackmore, "just playing the old rock stuff, Purple stuff and Rainbow. I'm doing it for the fans, for nostalgia, and the singer I found is very exciting; he's a cross between Ronnie James Dio and Freddie Mercury.

Castronovo released a public statement about the arrest, apologizing for his actions and saying that the arrest and prosecution forced him to seek treatment for domestic violence and drug abuse and probably saved his life.

The following statement was published on deencastronovo.net on Friday (October 30th), "Two weeks ago, I, Deen Catronovo, made a plea deal with Salem, Oregon prosecutors. I plead guilty to one count of coercion, one count of unlawful use of a weapon, two counts of assault 4, and 2 counts of menacing. Ref: Case #15CR23974 in Marion County Court."

"Anyone who witnessed the events remains adamant that my abrasive behavior stemmed from the fact that I was at a drug-induced psychosis level of intoxication at the time of the occurrences. Otherwise, I am an easy- going guy who loves being a father and a musician."

"After my Indictment in June, I completed a 75-day inpatient treatment program at the Hazelden Betty Ford Springbrook Center, the most comprehensive drug abuse treatment center in the State of Oregon. It was at Hazelden that I quickly realized how dire the situation had become. I made a vow to myself and my family to not only stay sober but to dedicate time telling my story, speaking to promote sobriety, being a good example to my sons and advocating for the rights and assistance of domestic violence victims. I hope by telling my story I can help prevent someone else from making the same mistakes I did."

"Taking into consideration that I have been able to stay completely sober since my Indictment in June as well as the fact that I have continued domestic violence and drug counseling without any difficulties, Judge Jamese Rhodes sentenced me to four years of probation. The probation requires me to continue the domestic violence and drug abuse counseling."

"At the sentencing I apologized to my ex-fianc�, Deidra, and her family for the hurt I have put them through. I continue to wish Deidra the best. I know Deidra is not at fault for my behavior nor the consequences I have suffered because of it. Again, I want to apologize to Deidra, her family, my family, my band-mates in Journey and the fans of Journey. I'm sorry I let you all down. I have hit my bottom and I'm taking the necessary steps to ensuring that this never happens again."

The band say: "We are proud to announce our involvement in Black Ops 3. Treyarch asked us if we would like to create a score to accompany a portion of the multiplayer soundtrack and we gladly accepted.

He says the ordeal was a result of his bipolar disorder and a cocktail of prescription and non-prescription drugs and that he's taking his recovery one day at a time.

And once he's back to full health, Stapp hopes to work with Mark Tremonti, Brian Marshall and Scott Phillips in Creed. He tells Rolling Stone: "I recently ran into those guys, totally not planned at the Hard Rock Hotel in Orlando. I was taking my son and my wife down to the pool.

"We ended up hanging out by the pool for three hours, just talking and catching up with our families together. Right at that moment, the relationships began to have a new organic-ness. We've stayed in communication since then. I know that Mark and the guys have a lot going on, as well as I do.

Video has emerged of the show, including the group's first two songs, "Playing in the Band" and "Cold Rain and Snow." All eyes were on Mayer, who was stepping into the late Jerry Garcia's role, as lead guitarist and vocalist. Judging from the video, his lead playing was Garcia-influenced, but still retained his own style. And on "Cold Rain and Snow," his laid back style of vocals seemed to work well.

A six-track, limited-edition 10-inch LP, The Arcs vs. The Inventors Vol. 1, is out November 27 as part of Record Store Day's Black Friday event. The release, the first in an ongoing collaborative series under The Arcs name, will be out digitally December 11.

Event organisers DD8 Music secured funds for the project via a Crowdfunder campaign that recently surpassed its target of �45,000. Scott was born in Kirriemuir before his family moved to Australia and he eventually teamed up with AC/DC to worldwide acclaim.

Set for the April 29 - May 1 weekend, Bonfest will unveil the life-sized statue by artist John McKenna on April 30 in a memorial garden on Bellies Brae in the town, and will be officially revealed by former AC/DC bassist Mark Evans and Scott's 'soulmate' Mary Renshaw.

Evans will perform a solo set of material and join Renshaw - one of three co-authors of the newly-published book Live Wire - to participate in book signings as well as a Q&A session.

Gamma Ray say: "Kai just felt that it's time for him to cut a bit shorter on singing because he found out that his long touring - especially headline shows - after a while always tends to f*** up the voice and end up with something that is not 100%. So sharing the vocals makes things much easier and much more pleasurable.

Taylor tells KOMP 92.3: "We look at everything. We look at the artwork, we look at the music, we look at the stage - everything. Everything's interconnected. Because it's so much more artistic and creative than just your typical shock-rock band.

That led guitarist Blake Meahl to release his own statement, referring to her cancer surgery and continuing mental health issues but insisting her suggestion of a split was "unfounded."

Hellbook presents anecdotes from the players themselves alongside unreleased live and backstage images, some available for the first time. With artwork designed by illustrators and designers like Frederick Moulaert and Marcos Moura, the project - referred to as the 'Helloween Bible' - was initiated by Carlos Vincente Leon and David L�pez G�mez from Spain as a book by fans for fans.

Bassist Markus Grosskopf says: "For us, this book is highly emotional and evokes a thousand memories. Good moments as well as not so good ones are captured here. Thirty years of Helloween on almost 500 pages and no end in sight."

They previously unveiled a video for Double Trouble. On the album writing and recording process, Lydon told Classic Rock last month: "We were all gagging at the bit to get in and just enjoy each other's company. And this is the end result. That's not to say that we're perfect human beings. We had arguments, but they always led to good things.

It's been issued to coincide with the Australian outfit's North American tour with Parkway Drive. They were due to play tonight's (October 30) show in Anaheim, California but were banned from taking to the stage at the House Of Blues venue by owners Disney.

The band said: "We are very sorry to announce that due to the narrow-minded, corporate censoring goons over at Disney, we will be unable to join Parkway Drive on their upcoming dates at Anaheim on October 30 and Orlando Lake Buena Vista on November 23.

Drummer Chris Reifert says the record shows the veteran Bay Area death metal outfit continue to do what they do best. Reifert tells Noisey: "As far as writing, recording and all that stuff, it's always the same every time. The approach is unchanged since day one. The songwriting is exactly what you think we'd be doing, no abrupt changes in style or weird experiments or anything like that.

"If you liked us before, I think you'll be pretty stoked. And as usual, if you didn't like us before, this won't change your mind. It's us doing the only thing we know how to do."

Skull Grinder will be issued on vinyl to coincide with this year's Black Friday event on November 27, while a CD version will follow in 2016. The project will also be included as part of After The Cutting, an 82-song, four-disc package presenting a career overview complete with demos, rarities and unreleased tracks along with a book by artist Dennis Dread.

The Darkness say: "The band has found some more tracks hidden under a carelessly-discarded catsuit, and thought they would make an excellent Christmas gift to their fans. The tracks join the phenomenal original 10 tracks which were unleashed earlier this year to critical acclaim."

The pair first met when Bryant was 13 years old in 1993, Last year he and his wife set up the YouCaring campaign to help with the liver transplant that saved Trout's life last year.

Guitarist Dan Weller says: "It's more thoughtful, heavier, more refined. A lot of heart and soul went into the making of it - this record is for our fans who've been so loyal."

Cornell tells Migs Cast (via Blabbermouth): "I always felt like if most of the people that came up with me and came out of the world that I came out of and my band came out of, if they seemed to try to write for commercial success, it probably had less commercial appeal somehow.

"And I always felt that way with me. I felt like I can write 10 songs, and if one of those somehow has a broader appeal, it's an accident. But that accident will happen occasionally. And I'm not necessarily ever the best judge of it. I don't feel particularly in touch with the commercial side of music as a fan, and I never was."

He continues: "I was always someone that liked the deeper album tracks and I liked the songs that I didn't hear on the radio - the songs that my friends hadn't heard. And maybe what went into making that song is something that appealed to me, that is why I like music that's different than, I suppose, what makes commercial music.

Now, it'll be issued on double gatefold 2LP, and pressed on tangerine vinyl via Invisible Hands Music. Following Froese's death, former member Peter Baumann, who had been in discussions to rejoin the group, vowed to keep the band going.

The follow-up to 2014's Esoteric Symbolism, and their first outing with vocalist Nathan Peachey, is described as a "textual story of real depth, drama and intensity about events that unfold within a travelling show - the facades, the elation, the extravagant performances and the conflict within everyone involved."

Guitarist Dean Wells says: "Her Halo is the third track, where the story goes into more detail about the trapeze artist and how she sees her world. On the stage she's the star and elegance radiates off of her

The experiment is the subject of a two-part BBC On The Road radio documentary. The corporation say: "Maddy and Rose discuss their lives in music, family and the songwriter's process.

Guitarist Aaron Moreland says: "The new album is consciously more traditional than our last two - but still has the signature grit and power that we've crafted the past 13 years. We achieved that beautifully."

He reports: "Big Mama Thornton is responsible - I played one of her tracks on my radio show, heard a nice harmonica solo and checked the liner notes to see who it was. It was Big Mama! It was the first time I recall hearing a woman playing blues harp, and it set the wheels turning in my head."

He set up the website Hermonicas.com to chart his progress, until the concept of a compilation record was suggested. "It's taken a few years - working with 30-plus artists can get very complicated," says Smith. "But finally the album is finished and is about to become a unique part of music history.

Frontman Jorel Decker recently told TeamRock Radio: "In Europe the fans are much more loyal. They're harder to earn, but they'll stick with you for a lot longer.

'Broom Cupboard' started off as a bit of a throw away track for me. Most of the songs on 'Esque' I'd meticulously planned from top to bottom, but with this one I remember feeling out the melody/lyrics and structure fairly absent-mindedly over the course of a few hours, making a conscious effort to relinquish control of the track whilst writing (not sure if 'conscious' constitutes relinquishing control) and just follow the mood. I definitely felt the album needed something light and floaty to offset all the gloom.

Since then the track's taken on loads of different incarnations. There's a version of it somewhere that sounds a bit Nirvana Unplugged, and another one that's all synths. I guess it took a while to find the right instrumentation to fit the song.

Lyrically I guess I was still toying with some pretty bleak themes - singing about some kind of insurmountable/thankless pursuit - hence the "40-something failure" talk.. It's more tongue in cheek than anything too solemn though..

I was just picturing myself in the exact same place as 40 year old cackling away maniacally, with my Mum looking on in horror.

Up to 400 people were in the club at the time and more than 140 people remain in hospital. A stampede started after the fire took hold and swept through the venue.

"We got together to see what we had with maybe putting out a three track EP in mind," says Joe Elliott. "All of a sudden we had twelve songs on the go, and two more would come just a few weeks later. It's the first album we've ever made with no deal in place and no one looking over our shoulders so the freedom was immense, and I think you can hear it in the songs.

"The Fanpack is everything you need to know about Def Leppard... and more. And the brand new album, with two bonus tracks that are not available on the regular version. It really is a fanpack. It's there for the discerning Def Leppard fan to be able to read historical articles about the band, and our take on our new record."

"Falling In Reverse has announced that Jacky Vincent is leaving the band to concentrate on his solo career. Ronnie Radke said, 'I remember the first time I met Jacky, I walked out of prison and he was waiting there so stoked. Hands down one of the greatest guitar players to ever live. And one of the most genuine people I've ever met. I wish him nothing but the best. Love you Jacky."

The Halloween Eve appearance marked the American TV debut by the Swedish rockers as they promote their latest album, "Meliora." The group are currently playing dates on the Black To The Future North American tour in support of the project, which delivered Ghost their first-ever US Top 10 when the album debuted on the Billboard 200 at No. 8 with opening week sales of 29,000 copies.

The band's 1979 album Tusk, which was the follow-up to Fleetwood Mac's hugely successful 1977 album Rumours, sold more than four million copies worldwide and peaked at number four on the Billboard album charts. It spawned the hit singles 'Sara," 'Think About Me," and the beloved title track.

The deluxe version of Tusk features five CDs, two LPs and one DVD, which contains a remastered version of the album, unreleased studio sessions, demos, as well as the original album on vinyl. It will also be available in a three-CD set and a standalone disc that contains the remastered version of the album.

Up to 400 people were in the Colectiv club at the time and some remain unaccounted for. Emergency services were on the scene within 10 minutes and victims are being treated at 10 hospitals throughout the city.

Authorities declared a code red situation, requiring off-duty medical staff to attend. Eyewitness video shows survivors receiving attention on the streets outside Colectiv, with a fleet of ambulances in action.

"We made this record as an artistic statement that we'd be happy to play in 10 or 15 years in time and go 'You know what? That is a great record. That was a great period in our career'," says frontman Joe Elliott. "You just have to wait for the stars to be aligned. For this new album, they seemed to have been for us, because we all played and sang great and wrote well.

He fell from a bridge in July, aged 32, after seemingly suffering a mental breakdown and accusing bandmates of being involved in a conspiracy against him.

Wake Up! is about "not giving up in asking ourselves questions about purposes and meanings of everything," says The Pontiff. The album includes contributions from Tony Pagliuca, founder of the Italian progressive rock legends Le Orme, whose classic Felona e Sorona album was re-recorded for Charisma Records in 1974 with lyrics translated by Van Der Graaf Generator vocalist Peter Hammill.

Drummer Mikkey Dee says: "We've released a few drinks now, and for every one, we want to push the limits further. With Motorhead Imperial Pale Lager, we pulled all the stops, and this is craft beer at its best. We love the approach of Patrick and his crew at Nils-Oscar, and we know our fans will love this great beer as much as we do."

Over 100 other bands have also been announced, including Megadeth, Korn, Slayer, Ghost, Paradise Lost, The Offspring, Twisted Sister, Bring Me The Horizon, Anthrax and Tremonti.

Organisers say: "We have tested your patience these last few days and we hope you will forgive us. As you know, instead of leaking tidbits of information, drip by drip, we'd rather go for the big splash.

The band had the following to say about the cruise: "With such an overwhelming and positive response to the inaugural Parahoy it's only natural that we take to the seas again.

"If you missed all the fun first time round, or if you just want to do it all over again, we're inviting you to join us in 2016. We can't wait to be together at sea once again."

Former Gallows frontman Carter recently explained the record was the result of a "turbulent year" in 2014, adding: "I wrote it all down, a line here, a paragraph there, and soon I had a book full of suffering and questions.

The Halloween-themed video is soundtracked by his song The Girl In The Attic, which features on the album, on sale now. Mathewson recently made snippets of every song available to stream.

The release contains over 80 minutes of music, mainly improvised, with over 60% of the material previously unheard. The band's label, House Of Mythology, say:

Taken from upcoming album When We Are Death - due out on January 29, 2016, on Century Media - Earth Over Us is backed with a B-side cover version of Tiamat's Gaia.

Frontman Mat McNerney says: "This is the first song I wrote for the new album, and some who have seen us this year will have heard this one live already. It was just our first step towards the album we call When We Are Death, and so there are many surprises we're holding back, both haunting, folk and heavy-psych.

Vocalist Jenna McDougall says of the follow-up to 2013's The Other Side: "Limitless is a record that is just as much about redefining boundaries as it is about challenging the illusory concept of boundaries itself.
