This past Friday (2nd), the Foo Fighters did a medley during their live show in Curitiba, Brazil. Not only did the mashup include songs “Billie Jean” by Michael Jackson and “Blitzkrieg Bop” by the Ramones, but they also mixed John Lennon’s “Imagine” and Van Halen’s “Jump.” This particular mashup was inspired by a rare mix […]

To say that it’s hard to define 3’s sound is a bit of an understatement. While the obvious label would be prog rock, the band’s music combines so many different elements and styles that they truly stand out amongst fellow modern bands.

Ozzy Osbourne is the first one to admit that The Beatles were the biggest influence on him as a child. So it’s fitting that the Prince Of Darkness would do something special in honor of the late John Lennon’s 70th Birthday, which would have been this Friday (10/8). Ozzy has recorded a cover of the […]
