New record label

We’re all eagerly anticipating the release of Metallica’s live concert video Quebec Magnetic, and the news now says that the band will release the video on their newly created record label. What’s the label’s name? Well, the band posted to their website that they haven’t quite finished dotting all the i’s and crossing all the t’s, so they can’t reveal all the detail quite yet, but they did confirm that the live video DVD/Blu-Ray release will be the label’s first official release. Expect to pick up the disc December 10th, just in time to pick it up for that Metallica fan this Christmas.

Another teaser

Soundgarden has given us another taste of the forthcoming album King Animal with a clip of the tune “Bones Of Birds.” The minute-and-a-half video features a clip of the song with front man Chris Cornell and Matt Cameron talking about how the tune is about children losing their innocence. King Animal hits stores November 13th.  Watch the video below or at this link.

Canceled shows

It wasn’t a band member getting arrested for holding up a pharmacy this time. It’s the singer’s swollen throat. That’s the reason given for Coheed and Cambria calling of shows through the end of November. A statement from the band says that singer Claudio Sanchez saw a doctor in St. Louis Monday who said he could have long-term damage if he doesn’t rest. The band plans to reschedule all the postponed dates.
