Some band members get stuck in foreign prisons, others just seem to disappear: Killing Joke frontman Jaz Coleman allegedly has not been seen in days. This is following a Facebook post which was allegedly written by the vocalist himself in which he cancelled the upcoming UK tour dates with The Cult and The Mission. The [...]

Metal By Numbers is a weekly column in which we look at the top metal sellers and debuts of the week. I’m pretty sure this is the first and last time we’ll be writing about the Rock of Ages soundtrack here on Metal By Numbers. It did have a pretty solid debut, but basically, this bullshit [...]

In fact, one of our favorite commercials from last night’s game may have come from Samsung Mobile.

Then again, they all have been pretty busy with their own bands (especially Caggiano with Anthrax). But thanks to NRK’s (Norway’s national [...]
