ROCK TASTICAL
Posted on February 12, 2008ROCK SOUND issue 76 OUT NOW!! is, for want of another word, amazing!! From the offset you know it’s going to ooze quality content as you see metal god Matt Heafy (TRIVIUM) on the front cover with an expression that could only be liked to that of someone whose pint you have just spilt. But wait there’s more, in addition to the features onCHIMAIRA, TRIVIUM, EVERY TIME I DIE, WITHIN TEMPTATION the magazine is giving away some of our best music! Not content with giving away a CD containing CHIMAIRA – Nothing Remains OPETH – The Grand Conjuration EVERY TIME I DIE – Champing At The Bit WITHIN TEMPTATION – It’s The Fear They are also giving away 15 Roadrunner download tracks!!! Un-bloody-believable. My advice go out now and pick up a copy. It’s worth the í£3.40 for one of those tracks, let alone the 18 others, and the magazine.

AND THE NOMINATIONS ARE . . .
Posted on February 12, 2008Yesterday evening the nominations for the 2005 KERRANG! AWARDS were announced. The event took place at the legendary KERRANG! DAY OF ROCK. This, in essence, is an opportunity for KERRANG! to get their peers extremely drunk and make them dance to BON JOVI, but hey who needs an excuse. The tipples for the evening included a somewhat spurious cocktail, which apparently contained í¢äåñGinger & Rumí¢äå, which left me a little bewildered as I was under the assumption that he had a solo album in the pipeline, poor man. Anyway the important part of the evening was the nominations, and the above was merely a suspense building mechanism. So here they are the nominations for 2005 KERRANG! AWARDS BEST INTERNATIONAL NEWCOMER (2004 winner Velvet Revolver) TRIVIUM Eighteen Visions Emanuel Lordi STILL REMAINS BEST ALBUM (2004 winner í¢äåäóì Muse í¢äåäóì Absolution) Green Day ‘American Idiot’ System Of A Down ‘Mezmerize’ My Chemical Romance ‘Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge’ Foo Fighters ‘ In Your Honour’ TRIVIUM ‘ASCENDANCY’ BEST LIVE ACT (2004 winner í¢äåäóì The Darkness) Rammstein Green Day System Of A Down SLIPKNOT Avenge Sevenfold BEST BRITISH BAND (2004 winner í¢äåäóì The Darkness) Feeder Stereophonics Funeral For A Friend Placebo CRADLE OF FILTH On hearing the great Paulo from Trivium is quoted as saying í¢äåñExpletive, expletive, that’s expletive bad-assí¢äå. Roadrunner would like to thank all those fans that voted for our artists on the KERRANG! site. ROCK n’ FUCKIN’ ROLL
