BREAKING NEWS: Rizz reads my email on-air

Dear Rizz...It looks like justice can finally be served. After looking at the photo of King James being served on tmz.com it's clear to me that the footage was shot by the same person responsible for filming Erin Andrews in her hotel room. It's good to be alive!!!

BACKSTORY: A couple of weeks ago Lebron James conducted a basketball skills clinic. In a pick-up game after the clinic a college player [Xavier's Jordan Crawford] made an epic slam dunk on Lebron which was caught on video. Representatives from Nike are reported to have confiscated the footage. Now TMZ is reporting that they have footage shot by someone else. They posted a still on their website:

The quality of the image is similar in quality to the hotel room footage of ESPN sideline reporter Erin Andrews that's been circulating around the internet. This footage became a hot topic this past weekend. Read more about that here.

Happy Birthday, Spongebob!

BEHEMOTH reveals new album's cover art!!!

Polish juggernaut's BEHEMOTH have announced that their new album - Evangelion - will be released in the US on the eleventh of August. They also released the image that will be gracing the cover:



Behemoth frontman Nergal posted the following on the band's website:

Evangelion combines a pure art form with a direct message. It was also important for us to ensure that the graphical presentation did justice to the record. Again, we have worked with Tomasz Danilowicz who has created his best illustration yet for Behemoth. The picture is of The Great Harlot of Babylon riding the seven-headed beast. Saints bow before her in worship whilst the tablets of the Ten Commandments lie broken at her feet. It represents our vision and the interpretation of the New Testament parable where the “Whore of Babylon” is a symbol of rebellion and resistance against God. I am fascinated by stories whose source lies in the Bible and we have used biblical symbolism, coupled with my own experience and outlook, in our lyrics or on the covers of previous Behemoth records. I love to juggle with meanings and play around with symbolism which is exactly what I have done in this case. The main character of our new cover is an archetype of disobedience, individualism, self-determination and a free, unfettered will – these are universal keywords which are typical and crucial in understanding the character of our works, life as a whole and the true nature of man.

The band will be part of the Rockstar "MAYHEM FEST 2009" tour which kicks off in Sacramento, CA on July 10. Slayer and Marilyn Manson are the tour headliners. Look for tales from the final two shows of the tour in late August.

Live Footage of MBV in Dallas

I just stumbled across this nice little piece of footage on YouTube.  This is roughly around ten minutes into the coda/"holocaust section" of "You Made Me Realise."  You get a pretty good idea of just how frikkin' loud that show was.  To whoever captured this video I say "Good job...thanks for sharing!"
