Dubstep: Is it taking over the world?
Chris 
It seems like no matter where I turn right now, there is Dubstep about. To be honest, I was completely oblivious to this form of music until Korn collaborated with Dubstep DJs on their recent album and from that point on, it’s everywhere.
I must say though, the following Dubstep dance video is pretty bad ass. It’s like someone put Michael Jackson’s moonwalk on steroids!
Foo Fighters new album Wasting Light live from 606
Just finished watching the Foo Fighters documentary Back And Forth earlier tonight. Must say that it was a really insightful look into what Dave Grohl and his band have been through over the years. It has not been an easy ride to success at all.
Back And Forth basically details how the Foo Fighters started right up to the latest album Wasting Light. I stumbled upon this video of them playing the entire new album completely live.
Enjoy!
How to launch a rock super group
There is a new rock super group on the horizon made up of drummer Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters, Nirvana), vocalist and guitarist Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age & other bands) and bassist and keyboardist John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin).
They are calling themselves Them Crooked Vultures and have started creating a bit of stir without an album, without a record label and mainly just using the internet!

Iron Maiden: Flight 666 movie review
This movie documents the first leg of Iron Maiden’s most ambitious tour ever, the ‘Somewhere Back In Time’ world tour 2008. In 45 days they play 23 sold out shows that span 13 countries in Asia, Australia and North, Central and South America.
For two whole hours, you are given an Access All Areas pass to what it’s like on the road touring with Iron Maiden as they board Ed Force One for the first time not knowing whether the plane will actually take off with 12 tonnes of gear plus 70 crew, through to playing shows for the first time ever in South America and giving metal fans the experience of a lifetime they never ever thought would happen ie. Iron Maiden playing in their ‘asshole’ country as one fan put it.
There is plenty of behind the scenes footage revealing what the band got up to before and after shows, as well as how they passed the time on days off which include playing golf, tennis and time in the studio when they weren’t confined to their hotel rooms.
You also get to hear from all the band members about what they think of their band mates. By the end of this movie, you feel like you know the band almost personally.
What I got out of the movie is how down to earth all these guys are at the end of the day despite their phenomenal success. They don’t take anything for granted and truly live to give each show they play the very best they can because their fans deserve that much from them.
This movie is an absolute must see whether you are a Maiden fan or not. The madness, the mayhem and the inspiration of a world class touring rock band is captured so at least everyone now has the chance to partially experience a day in the life of a touring rockstar!
