Rob Halford, We Three Kings. From 2009’s Winter Songs. Instant fucking classic.
There aren’t many people in this world that I respect more than Rob Halford. I’ve been a Priest fan since I was a kid and every time I’ve seen the band live it’s been a four octave, guitar fueled, anti-religious experience. To say nothing of Halford’s original and defining metal fashion statements. So accordingly, when I heard that Halford had recorded his first holiday record, HALFORD III – WINTER SONGS, I pretty much lost my mind. Here’s what Halford had to say about what has already become my favorite Christmas record ever:
Well, I’ve always said I wanted to produce a Christmas CD. The Halford band has assembled a fantastic release, and we’re excited to have produced a collection of holiday tracks which all of us have enjoyed from a very early age.
Oh Holy Night! Here’s the track listing…:
1. Get Into The Spirit
2. What Child Is This
3. Oh Emanuel
4. Winter Song
5. We Three Kings
6. Oh Holy Night
7. When Christmas Comes For Everyone
8. Oh Come All Ye Faithful
9. I Don’t Care If It’s Christmas Night
The record comes out on October 26th. Two tracks from Winter Songs, Get into The Spirit and We Three Kings, are available to download now. Or, you can be like me and pre-order Winter Songs, here.

To say I’m siked about this is a huge understatement. Many thanks to RDK for making this happen.
Will someone please get this monkey off my back? For LP.
Joe Perry’smouth is unstoppable when it comes to talking smack about Steven Tyler. Perry recently told Billboard that Tyler has been taking Aerosmith’s fans for granted. Said The Perry:
The thing that bothers me the most is how it affects the fans. The only reason you’re there is because of the fans. You owe them a lot, and when you start taking them for granted, it’s just wrong. I think that a lot of what happened with AEROSMITH over the last two or three years has been a case of that. And I’m not talking about everybody in the band. I think at this point the four band members are willing to not play for a while until the fifth member gets together and decides to come and join us again.
Oi! This whole statement reads like an instructional manual on how to be more passive-aggressive. Tyler has yet to respond to Perry’s recent comments about their relationship or Aerosmith’s future.
It’s hard to believe that Shane Lee isn’t a huge star. Yet anyway. When he hits that high note at the end of this video it will send chills up your spine. True story.
Pamela Anderson on the catwalk for her collection, AMUSE. For the record, I am not amused.
I’m pretty sure all of you can still tell this is Pamela Anderson, despite Pammy’s attempt to hide her shame behind an evil Ronnie McDonald mask and police tape.
The Shake Weight for men. You haven’t had a pump like this in a long time.
This past summer, the Shake Weight for Women infomercial was making the rounds on the Internet, giving everyone the day dreams about hand jobs. Of course it was only a matter of time before the sweaty, shirtless infomercial for the Shake Weight for Men made it’s debut. Somewhat NSFW as it might as well be a tutorial on how to whack your jack.
