Headbangers Brawl: Is punk “rubbish?”

Posted by on June 27, 2014

Iron Maiden’s Bruce Dickinson is usually calm, cool and collected, but when talking to The Guardian earlier this week with punk/folk singer Frank Turner, he went off on a bit of a rant about punk music, calling it ‘rubbish.’ Was Dickinson’s rant just, or has his resentment toward punk something that’s been building up for […]

Black Flag get another singer

Posted by on January 30, 2014

When we last heard from Black Flag (not Flag) their graphic designer had been kicked out of the band. That’s completely understandable, given what the art for What The… looked like.

Metal By Numbers 12/11: The Charts Show a Bit of Common Courtesy

Posted by on December 11, 2013

Metal By Numbers is a weekly column in which we look at the top metal sellers and debuts of the week. I could talk about the elephant in the room in that we, unfortunately, had to skip over Metal By Numbers last week. But I’d rather talk records, specifically how the Metal Insider staff has […]

Posted by on October 11, 2013

While Greg Ginn might have founded Black Flag, that apparently isn’t worth much in a court of law. The guitarist has lost a lawsuit against FLAG, a spinoff of the band featuring former Black Flag members Keith Morris, Dez Cadena and Bill Stevenson. Ginn’s lawsuit also alleged that Henry Rollins was continuing to use the […]
