In a new interview with some of the members of Slipknot, Corey Taylor discussed the theories about their new mystery member. Though Slipknot willingly shared the identity of their newest member, drummer Eloy Casagrande, they still haven’t let up on who the keyboardist that replaced Craig Jones is.

However, in a video posted to Instagram on Tuesday morning (which you can watch below), John 5 addressed these accusations and offered a technical explanation for what he was doing. “I do this thing wh...

Did you know a certified jazz legend played drums on Crazy Town‘s debut album The Gift of Game? Crazy Town had, for lack of a better word, a pretty crazy lineup as a band. Former members include the late Adam “DJ AM” Goldstein, who after leaving the band went on to have an illustrious career in dance music, including the Travis Barker collaboration TRV$DJAM. Their first DJ, Adam Bravin would go onto form popular darkwave duo She Wants Revenge and become personal DJ for former president Barack Obama. But maybe the most insane former member to grace the band’s roster was drummer James “JBJ” Brad...

Could a long-awaited Sepultura reunion actually happen? It seems more likely than before now that estranged member Max Cavalera and classic guitarist Andreas Kisser have both expressed interest in doing so. It’s been nearly 30 years since the frontman departed the Brazilian metal legends in a contentious split. Neither side has appeared very willing to come to the table to discuss getting back together and putting the past behind them. With Sepultura’s farewell tour in motion, perhaps Cavalera and Kisser are looking at things with a new perspective. What Max Cavalera Is SayingFor years, Max Ca...
