Hello all! Here’s the latest: Pulse Of Radio reports Metallica bassist Robert Trujillo told Rock Cellar magazine in a new interview the band is “blueprinting” the songs for its new album at the moment, saying, “There are a lot of ideas, a lot of song bodies; you gotta go through the process. For me personally, I’m really excited about what we’ve been able to jam out.” Trujillo added, “I don’t like to make predictions, but I’d like to think — at least for me — that I’m really happy with what’s happening instrumentally.” Trujillo told us the band is enjoying the writing process this time around: “We’re having a really amazing time. It’s fun, it’s a lot of hard work, it’s like you’re looking at that mountain of ideas and you’re like, ‘Okay, it’s time to climb this beast and do what we’ve got to do.’ I’d say we’ve pretty much exhausted our touring cycles, so we’re really, really excited about nurturing the songs and bringing them to life and that’s where we’re at right now.” New album in 2015? We hope so! …Man! You’ve seen the video for Slipknot‘s “The Devil In I,” right? But have you seen this?? (Warning, if you just ate breakfast, wait a while…)….Congrats to Trent Reznor and his writing partner Atticus Ross. They’ve received their third Golden Globe nomination for Best Score, this time for “Gone Girl.” They already own hardware for “The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo” and “The Social Network.”….Former Korn drummer David Silveria told Rolling Stone he thinks he should’ve been asked to tour with Korn on their 20th anniversary tour. The way he left things with the band, it is doubtful this could happen. With Korn, it is an all or nothing democracy. All in or all out. And so far, all ain’t in on this sentiment when it comes to David. And he should know that by now. Granted, many things have changed with each member of the band who have found new paths and changed old habits. But this one is a hard pill to swallow, that’s for sure. Let’s see how it plays out in the end. I can tell you they will never part ways with Ray Luzier…..AC/DC has announced first leg of their 2015 European tour. See Road Rage!…Today, Happy Birthday to Korn’s documentarian Sebastien Paquet! Saturday, Happy 33rd to Amy Lee of Evanessence, Happy 39th to Blink 182’s and Angels & Airwaves Tom Delonge. Sunday, Happy 65th to Cliff Williams of AC/DC and Happy 39th to Blue October’s Justin Furstenfeld.
