Remember that time when Rhea and I went on a hot date to see GWAR in Joliet, Illinois and we got completely drenched in blood? Well, before the blood drenching part, I was lucky enough to interview Oderus Urungus, Balzac, and Sawborg Destructo for a feature i was doing for HEAVY magazine. This is the results! Four pages dedicated to Antarctica’s greatest metal band. Available right around Australia from today. Support your starving journalist and buy a copy today. Thanks mate!
I’m so tired of seeing the same band photos with the same looking dudes in it with their plaid shirts and black framed glasses. Seriously, from now on, all band photos should be this brutal. Apparently claws are in. Yep. \m/ METAL! \m/
If you love bands like Motorhead / The Wildhearts / Hellacopters / Turbonegro / Gluecifer etc. And you like touring, playing shows and live in Melbourne, please get in touch with us.
Or if you know someone who may fit the bill, please let them know. We like recording records, kicking out the jams and touring.

Please reblog this and help us find a drummer who will turn up to rehearsal. Thanks!
I wonder how it feels knowing you’re pretty much the best drummer in guitar driven music today?
Seriously, even if this isn’t your style of music, just watch and be amazed at this guy’s precision and well executed drumming.
I am not ashamed of my metal roots. Doro is a goddess! Met her twice and she was lovely both times. This album was produced by Gene $immons and Tommy Thayer. Well fancy that.
My WACKEN cup collection. The one in the middle is signed by Doro Pesch. She was lovely. I went to WACKEN in 2008 and it was the greatest festival I have ever been to. Like incredibly amazing. The line-up included Airbourne, Girlschool, Nashville Pussy, Mortal Sin, Exodus, Hatebreed, Killswitch Engage, Iron Maiden, Avenged Sevenfold, Nightwish, Carcass, Kreator, 3 Inches Of Blood, At The Gates, Psychopunch, Massacre, Avantasia… And I think I saw Watain and Gorgoroth… they’re the ones I remember watching. I think. It was a long 3 days and it all becomes a blur.
