C.C.: "I'm Innocent" |
"I regret that this has happened. I just want everyone to understand that the first write up, by Ms. Malone was false. The facts are: I was in my home with my new girlfriend. Ms. Malone, whom I dated previously, entered my home. She attacked me and I did not retaliate. I do not hit women and I do not believe in violence! Ms. Malone has done this before. She made up false charges and I was arrested. She later dropped the charges. My girlfiend, in an effort to pull Ms. Malone from me, was then attacked with a chair. She sustained several cuts and bruises. Once Ms. Malone was close to the door, I pushed her out and she left. [see full story for more]- Click Here for the Full Story

About Throwdown: Some have called these OC rockers the future of metal with their brutal metalcore sound, that buzz only intensified earlier this year with the impressive release Vendetta. Throwdown ripped it up earlier this summer on tour with Clutch, Lamb of God, Opeth and Gwar and proving there is no rest for the wicked, jumped right back on the road for the "To Die For Tour" with Remembering Never, Agony Scene and Sinai Beach which is currently crossing the States. Check out the link to the band's site for dates and to learn more about them.
