Hard Rock/Heavy Metal Update 8/5/2006

[Deathstroke]

Glad you liked the interview.

I'm never sure if people actually read the interview links I post or not. At least I know someone is doing that.

[PanzerMega]

I thought it looked pretty good myself.

The art itself is okay, it just looks like a Dio cover or something.

Oh yeah, whenever I see an interview from someone I know I'll read it, same with the album reviews. I usually check a couple times a day to see whats going on over here on the music board and if you've posted the hard rock/metal updates.

Keep up the good work man!

I thought it was odd at first, but it is pretty similar to the Ascendancy cover, so its grown on me a bit.

Here's the video for the new Evanescence single "Call Me When You're Sober."

Saw it elsewhere last night, it's...odd. If the band is going with "Amy and the Guys" then that's fine, but I don't need to see her floating or (I couldn't believe it) backed by choreographed dancers.

Catchy song, though. Still maintain that their demo stuff is by far their strongest, but I liked this.

Not sure if you'd posted:

Vinnie Paul / Mudvayne project.

No I hadn't posted it, and I wasn't going to in the next update anyway. So good pick up on your part.
