Corgan rails against "reality"

He’s got a new album out and he’s using that as a platform to wake people up from their matrix stupor. Smashing Pumpkins front man Billy Corgan appeared on The Alex Jones Show, an alternative theory talk show that talks about the global elite controlling every aspect of our lives. Corgan talked about his new album, Oceania, and provides insight into several of the songs from the new attempt. Jones and Corgan talked about the zombie and robot class being brainwashed by false emotion ploys in order to get compliance. For years, Corgan has been bucking the system, refusing to “sell out” to the man and keep silent about his philosophies. Having a new album that is commercially released and doing quite well just gave Corgan another oprotunity to speak out.

Rollins rolling to Springfield

Speaking of speaking out—Black Flag founder and radical commentarian Henry Rollins will be coming to Springfield for his “Capitalism” tour. The gimmick is that Rollins, who’s had huge success with his punk band Black Flag and also with his other project (rightly named) The Henry Rollins Band, will be going to the capital city of every state to share his spoken word. The plan is to start in Honolulu September 6th. He’ll be in Springfield October 11th and then in the nation’s capital just before Election Day in November.

Lawsuit settled

And, Anthrax settled a $2.65 million lawsuit filed by their former singer Dan Nelson. Apparently Nelson was fired from the band. The band said he left because of illness. Nelson denied that and sued. They settled with undisclosed terms.
