Spinal Tap-ped Again (Where Are They Now)

1984, 1992 and now 2024(ish) will see Spinal Tap back on the stage. 

Michael McKean (David St Hubbins), Harry Shearer (Derek Smalls) and Christopher Guest (Nigel Tufnel) will be joined by Rob Reiner (Marty DiBergi) and this time around Garth Brooks, Paul McCartney and Elton John will be along for the ride.  38 years later I wonder if they're still big in Japan. A true cult classic makes it's way back for a new (and old) generation. Hope they don't screw it up....

EXHALE INTERVIEW:

Exhale is: Corey McLane - Vocals/Rhythm Guitar/Songwriter John Burns - Drums/Backing Vocals/Songwriter Matt Vigeant - Bassist/Backing Vocals Mike Fintonis - Lead Guitar   Buy Music Here: BOOTLEG METAL: So let’s get things started with the name. Who came up with the name and what’s behind it? EXHALE:  What's in a name? Well, our original drummer and close friend, Ken Billingsley, came up with the band name 'Exhale'.. We wanted something easy to spell, say and understand.. Plus, we were all partial to the idea of having a one word band name. I suppose you can get all deep and meaningful about it and say things like, "It's the last thing we do before we die." Or "It's an'exhale' of notes".. but really, we just thought 'Exhale' sounded like a pretty cool band name.  BOOTLEG METAL:  Where is the band from? EXHALE:  Exhale is a 4-piece, hard rock/grunge band from Boston, MA. BOOTLEG METAL: Is this the original l...

SEBASTIAN BACH proves he's got nothing to lose

It's been a decade since Sebastian has put out new music and this one was worth the wait. Co-written with Myles Kennedy, "WHAT DO I GOT TO LOSE" is what you would expect (and hope for) from the former Skid Row singer. A great song, a killer mix and a pretty good video to compliment the song writing effort. Former Skid Row bandmate was behind the drums for this one and was nice to see them together again. Reigning Phoenix Music has a release to be proud of and I wish all involved the best. Can't wait to hear some more.  -PJ

CHUGGER INTERVIEW:

Chugger is: David Dahl - Vocals Robert Bjärmyr - Lead guitars Robin Lagerborg - Rhythm guitars Eric Skjuttorp - Drums               Buy music here:                   BOOTLEG METAL: So let’s get things started with the name. Who came up with the name and what’s behind it? CHUGGER: Hey, Robert from Chugger here! The name was my suggestion and after a quick discussion internally we settled for it. The name comes from the chugging sound of a distorted guitar; which coincidentally also describes the sound of an unstoppable freight train running down the tracks, and the very definition of the word itself; a muffled explosive sound. We wanted a name that suit the music and describes what you can expect from us; a whole lot of guitars chugging! BOOTLEG METAL:  Where is the band from? CHUGGER: We're based in Gothenburg, Sweden, but our members are hailing from all over the nat...
