This is so wrong. Annihilator‘s Jeff Waters wrote a song for his kids. And now there is a video for it.

Red Fang have released a new song, titled Dirt Wizard, off their forthcoming album Murder The Mountains. Listen to it streaming here:
The only song of theirs I had heard before was Prehistoric Dog, mostly due to its wonderful video…
Murder The Mountains will get an April 12 US release and is available for pre-order from Relapse Records.
Either High on Fire are one of the unluckiest bands on the planet, or they’re more metal than anything we’ve ever encountered before on this earth.
In sixteen days, they’ve survived two devastating earthquakes across the globe. The first was in Christchurch (NZ), and the other yesterday (followed by a tsunami) while they were in Tokyo.
Sucks to be them.
Like the previous Monster Magnet album 4 Way Diablo, the new one didn’t exactly blow me away on the first listen or two. Although it did seem that there is more variety in the songs this time around, sometimes invoking more of a feel of their older more stoner type of approach.
After a few listens it still hadn’t really clicked with me and when I played a track recently (one of the bonus tracks on the version I have) on the Anger Management show I commented that when I select a bonus track as the first track to play, then that might be a telling sign that the album isn’t all that special.
But some more listens later and I’m backtracking on that a bit. It is a very good album, and as mentioned previously nicely diverse compared to recent efforts. On the downside, only two songs stick in my head – Dig That Hole and Gods And Punks. Also the delivery of the main line from the track Perish In Fire, “I’ve got three words for you now / Perish in fire”.
It still doesn’t rate up with what I think was their last great album, Monolithic Baby! That one is definitely buy or die in my book, and the best of the four albums since Powertrip.
