Metal God Apparel by Rob Halford.

Rob Halford of Judas Priest just launched a new apparel line called Metal God. The promo clip for Metal God Apparel makes me want to hide under the bed and buy a t-shirt with Satan on it all at the same time. Heavy Metal marketing rules!

Bright Eyes aka, Connor Oberest, Papa Was a Rodeo.

All the artists on SCORE! 20 Years of Merge Records: The Covers, selected 20 songs from Merge’s diverse catalog to honor the North Carolina Indie label on their 20th Anniversary. Like Oberest, Everything But the Girl vocalist Tracey Thorn reworked a cut from the Magnetic Fields. Thorn’s cover of Yeah! Oh, Yeah! comes from the decade old record, 69 Love Songs, Volume III. Of the three Superchunk covers on SCORE!, Kicked In by Death Cab For Cutie is a standout. And, since the only soft spot in my heart holds a special place for Archers of Loaf vocalist, Eric Bachmann, I adore the sweet, lovelorn redux of Crooked Fingers’ Sleep All Summer by St. Vincent and The National.

You can listen to SCORE! in it’s entirety on Merge’s website.

Merge’s five-day, 20th Anniversary Party kicks off on July 22nd in Carraboo, NC. The lineup includes Merge luminaries, the aforementioned The Magnetic Fields, Lou Barlow (!), Superchunk and Spoon. To view the complete lineup, click here.

The proceeds from SCORE! will go to support charities like Doctors Without Borders and Oxfam America. Here’s the full list of charities that will benefit from the sale of SCORE!.

Lastly, in getting back to the excellent Connor Oberest, on May 5th Oberest his Mystic Valley Band will release their new record, Outer South. But, if you’re like me and you can’t wait that long to hear it, you can go to NPR and stream Outer South right now.

Staxx Brothers, We are The Blaxstonz, due out May 8th.

We are The Blaxstonz, the latest record from local funk ‘n’ soul outfit Staxx Brothers, will be out on May 8th. After giving my advance copy a whirl, I can tell you this; any day a band can work the words, “money, cash and ho’s” into a song, is a good day. Staxx worked with esteemed producer Scott Colburn (Arcade Fire, Animal Collective, and Mudhoney) recording Blaxstonz at Colburn’s studio, formerly a Lutheran Church. The end result is a record full of funk infused hip-hop, laced with lyrics full of malediction, bluesy street doctrine and heavy soul. To listen to some of the tracks from Blaxstonz, click here.

Staxx are also working with original Fishbone trumpet player, Walter Kibby. The band plans to reissue their first record through Kibby’s new record label, IBCT.

The Blaxstonz record release will go down at Nectar on May 8th.

Michelob Ultra Beer. From left to right, Tuscan Orange Grapefruit, Pomegranate Raspberry and Lime Cactus.

Dear Michelob,

Any alcoholic beverage containing pomegranate, grapefruit or the floral essence of cactus (seriously, WTF is that about?) is technically called a wine cooler, not beer.

Thanks,

Heaven and Hell, Bible Black. From 2009’s The Devil You Know. For Freddy Pants.

The new video from Heaven and Hell, Bible Black, debuted this past weekend on one of my favorite devil-box diversions, That Metal Show. I can’t post the video, directed by visual effects master, Ben Ceccarelli yet. Mostly because I don’t want to get my Irish ass sued, so for now, you can view it here. The new Heaven and Hell record, The Devil You Know, comes out tomorrow, April 28th. To listen to the entire record, click here.

Heaven and Hell kick off their South American tour in Bogota, Colombia on May 5th.

The Ace Case.

The spendy suitcase in question used to belong to Ace Frehley. The bidding via Ebay is already up to $2,750 for the suitcase Frehley carried while touring with KISS during the mid-70’s. The baby blue case still bears the vintage signatures of all the members of KISS on the front as well as a hand-drawn KISS logo inked by Paul Stanley.

According to the seller, falling *star* catcher, the high bidder will also receive the Japanese KISSology Box Set.

Online bidding has already started for 200 former residents of the Hollywood Wax Museum. The auction is a first in the 44 year history of one of Hollywood’s most famous destinations.

Isabel Samaras, Redivivus (Bitten). Oil on Wood.

New York native, now San Fransisco based artist Isabel Samaras will open a new solo show, Into the Woodz at The Shooting Gallery in San Fransisco on May 9th.

Isabel Samaras, Honey Dripper. Oil on wood. 2009.

Samaras drew inspiration for Woodz from classic fairy tales. Via her blog, Samaras muses about Goldilocks and what might have happened to our favorite B&E blond had she never made it out of the woods:

But what happened to the girl who didn’t hook up with a Prince, who stayed in the woods?  I wanted to explore that story so for this show I picked Goldilocks, and as I so often do I created my own version of a happier ending — that the moment when she and Baby Bear lay eyes on each other it was love at first sight.

Isabel Samaras, Song of Birth: The 3 Magi. Oil on wood.

Over the last decade, Samaras has also drawn inspiration from television and pop-culture icons. The results are lush, dream-like fantasies that contain the same “what if” Samaras twist.

Samaras will also be signing copies of her new book, Into the Woodz, on May 9th. For more on Samaras, click here.

The new trailer for Rob Zombie’s Halloween sequel, H2.

The Gossip are back bitches…

Heavy Cross is the new single from the Gossip’s forthcoming record, Music for Men. Blogger Perez Hilton posted the song earlier today, over a month before it’s planned June 15th release date. If you dig the dance-or-die groove of Heavy Cross (and I promise you will, it’s fucking hot), check out the Gossip’s Myspace for an equally hot remix of Control.

The Gossip start a tour of the UK and Europe on May 18th in Paris.

Rockstar. If it looks like piss, and it tastes like piss, awww, fuck. If you don’t know where I’m going with this you’re probably drinking piss right now…

Let’s face it, we all consume a mass amount of Kool-Aid type products that come or are derived from sources we pretend don’t exist. Slaughter houses, Montsanto, Proctor and Gamble. The list is endless. When it comes to the swill-in-a-can also known as Rockstar Energy Drink, perhaps being informed about it’s origins, more specifically the people who own Rockstar, might get you off that junk for good.

Russell Goldencloud Weiner is the CEO of Rockstar. Weiner is also the co-founder of The Paul Revere Society. Members of the PRS work actively to deport illegal immigrants from the U.S., support the elimination of bilingual language education and, lobby against gay marriage rights. Meh? Okay. Weiner’s mother is Rockstar’s CFO. She’s married to Weiner’s father, Michael Savage. Michael Savage likes to say words like these in broadcast media:

Homosexuals have taken over every aspect of the culture. That’s how we have the president that we have…..Diversity is a cover for perversity.

Or these:

We need to keep out the Koreans because they might grill dog in the back yard. I wish I was making this up. Basically, the majority of immigrants are disease ridden, scum sucking, handout cases who come with a bad attitude and expect us to take complete care of them. Or they’re here to destroy us and everything we stand for.

So you see, the real reason Rockstar tastes like ass is because it’s made by pieces of shit.

Beth Ditto Doll by Super Doll Creations.

Shepard Fairey’s LEAD BY EXAMPLE (formerly known as ADOPT) print.

Artist and icon-creator Shepard Fairey, originally created LEAD BY EXAMPLE (formerly titled ADOPT) when it was widely thought that the Obama’s would adopt a shelter dog. The official date of the first shelter dogs adoption would have been included on the print, noted on the dogs collar. The reaction to the arrival of Bo, the portuguese water dog given to the Obama’s by Senator Ted Kennedy was met with wide disappointment by shelter animal advocates, despite the fact that the decision was largely driven by Obama’s oldest daugher and her allergies. Fairey then decided to re-released the print, now called LEAD BY EXAMPLE, in the hope it would now serve as a call to action and increased support for shelter animals. You can also pick up the poignant print on bumper stickers, banners, shirts and other formats, here.

All proceeds from the sales of LEAD BY EXAMPLE will support Adopt-A-Pet, the largest pet adoption website in the U.S. America, FUCK YEAH!

Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs, Heads Will Roll from 2009’s It’s Blitz!. Dance ’till you’re dead baby…

I picked up the Yeah Yeah Yeahs “It’s Blitz!” this past Saturday on Record Store Day. Hopefully you got out and supported the nationwide effort to keep local music retailers a priority. Especially during this shiteous economy. Anyway, it’s day four and I can’t shake Heads Will Roll. Which is fine because Karen O’s vocals combined with guitar-driven, ass-pumping disco beats, makes for some fantastic ear candy.

The Yeah Yeah Yeahs will play Academy2 in Manchester tonight. Other gigs include a stop at Sasquatch on May 23rd and Bonnoroo on June 12th. A complete tour schedule can be found here.

Gay American Doll by Vicale.

Vicale is a company out of Connecticut that makes action figures. The Gay American Hero Action Figure (above) will run you about $29.99. Although the Gay American Action Figure isn’t anatomically correct, Vicale’s “Flex Action” Big Joe Action Figure is.

Senator Larry Craig Doll by Vicale. The doll might not be gay but the Senator sure is…

The Senator Larry Craig Action Figure actually plays an audio recording of the Senator denouncing his gayness with: “let me be clear, I am not gay and I never have been gay”. Which we all know is code for “Let me be clear. I’m gay, and I’ve always been gay”.

All American guy with baseball bat by Vicale.

Buy the All American Bald Guy Action Figure (baseball bat is extra) so that you can use him beat the gay out of both the Gay American and Larry Craig Action Figures. All of Vicale’s Hero Builder action figures can be outfitted with anything from a guitar to tools or weapons like a replica of Hattori Hanzo Sword. All of Vicale’s figures and accessories are made in the U.S.A. America Fuck Yeah!
