While the internet is full of terrible mashups, it makes the good ones stand out that much more. We’ll never forget Linkin Park/”Gangam Style”, or the time Meshuggah mixed well with Space Jam. Other notable ones include Mötley Crüe and The Beatles, Hall and Oates/Metallica, Avenged Sevenfold/Katy Perry, Drake/Danzig, and let’s not forget, the legendary David […]

TMZ wrote about 18 year-old Paris Jackson, one of Michael Jackson’s daughters. She’s dating Michael Snoddy one of the drummers in Street Drum Corps, and Jackson’s family is pretty upset about his tattoo. […]

Metal Insider’s Top 5 is a column where we count down the top five of…well basically anything.

Wild Throne is pretty cool and their music is solid and quite enjoyable, therefore, they can branch out a little bit from their style to try something different and expect some decent results.

But even […]

[youtube]http://youtu.be/WwNsRs5dKyA[/youtube] Didn’t have enough of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” from the The Walking Dead/”Thriller” mashup we posted yesterday? Maybe you’d like to hear it in a few different styles? Maybe like 20 different styles? Ten Second Songs’ Anthony Vincent, who we’ve covered before, has returned to cover the song in 20 different vocal styles, including Marilyn Manson, […]

It’s about time that Michael Jackson got his own metal tribute. I mean, anyone that was alive in the ’80s and ’90s heard the King of Pop over and over again, and Jackson’s run from 1979’s Off the Wall to 1991’s Dangerous made him an unstoppable force in the music industry that any other musician […]

Earlier this week, it was reported that Michael Jackson’s daughter Paris attempted to commit suicide after she wasn’t allowed to see Marilyn Manson in concert. Did Ms. Jackson really attempt suicide because she couldn’t see Manson live? Whether that’s true or not, the news was enough to supposedly arouse a comment from the shock rocker […]

This morning, Michael Jackson’s daughter Paris was rushed to the hospital after attempting to commit suicide. She is reportedly in a Los Angeles hospital recovering after she overdosed and was found with cuts on her wrists. By now, you probably are asking (and rightfully so) “Why the hell is a metal site covering this?” Well, […]
