Being on the road all the time can make anybody start acting goofy. Luckily, with camera technology, these moments can be documented for all to see. Take Killswitch Engage frontman Jesse Leach. He's been out on the road on the Trespass America tour and might be going a lil nutso. Thus his alter-ego was unleashed! [...]

A few weeks later somebody found the flyer you see here at the Musician's Institute and shared it on the internet. We all laugh. Then, 5FDP's management comes out says it was a mistake and the band never approved of it. [...]

We haven't done one of these in a while, but this week there were so many videos posted that we felt this would be a good time to bring this back. So, let's get started shall we… First, let's start with a video that is being reposted all over the internet, Super Mario Bros Theme [...]

Fresh off this summer's Mayhem Fest, FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH vocalist Ivan Moody sat down with Headbangers Blog to discuss Moody the success of the band's recent release, The Way of the Fist, the band’s history, FFDP’s love for mixed martial arts fighting, and the emotional and physical scars that have impacted the band’s churning, [...]
