Quick Bits Upcoming Releases

DANZA Back In The Studio; Those Were Not The Demos

Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza

The good news: The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza is definitely in the studio! The band recently posted they have been at NS Studio since May 23rd with producer Nicholas Scott adding "BEAST MODE!". The bad news? Those tracks we thought were demos, well, turns out it was just guitarist Josh Travis just fucking around. Needless to say, more Danza is a good thing. Tony Danza himself would agree.

Audio Roundup: New music from TONY DANZA, UNLEASHED and VOLTURE

Today may be April Fool's Day but it's also a good day to talk about some new music which has surfaced around the intrawebs.

One of our favorite avant-grind bands are gearing up for a new release, why it's the Tony Danza Tap Dance Extravaganza! The band just released the first (mastered) tracked off their upcoming release,Danza III: The Series Of Unfortunate Events, which hits stores July 6th. The track is called "The Union" and can be streamed on their MySpace page. To see some exclusive Danza studio clips, click here.

MetalSucks is hosting a full album stream of Unleashed's epic new album As Yggdrasil Trembles. If you're into Sweedish death metal, this one is most certainly for you!

Finally, not content with only having a thrash-revival band, Municipal Waste bassist Ryan Waste is forming a New Wave of British Heavy Metal revival act, called Volture. The two tracks posted on the band's MySpace page sound pretty cool, very much in the vein of 80's metal like Priest and Maiden.

Quick Bits

TONY DANZA TAP DANCE EXTRAVAGANZA's new track will blow out your speakers

Rob's Funniest Interviews

THE TONY DANZY TAP DANCE EXTRAVAGANZA NEXT TUESDAY MASSACRE

Metal Injection has been going strong for 5 years now. I thought this would be as good a time as any to go back into our archives and pick out my top 5 favorite interviews that I have conducted. In the middle of the week, I'll post a few hilarious band on band interviews. Stay tuned all week for new updates!

I don't even know where to begin. We attended a tour package in the Spring of 2008 which featured THE TONY DANZA TAP DANCE EXTRAVAGANZA, SEE YOU NEXT TUESDAY and BENEATH THE MASSACRE all of which made cameos in this interview. Before the interview, I was warned that the lead singer, Jesse was really drunk. The band asked if we could just do a text interview but they didn't realize that being drunk results in great footage. Little did I know that this would be a huge trainwreck. Seriously, its just 11 minutes of randomness. (more…)

TONY DANZA TAP DANCE EXTRAVAGANZA Interview Take 2

A few weeks ago, we posted a pretty belligerent interview with members of the TONY DANZA TAP DANCE EXTRAVAGANZA. After that interview concluded, the dudes were like "So could we try this again when we're…like…sober." So, the above interview is the sober version! We caught up with dudes at the New England Metal and Hardcore Fest, and the band talked about it all. It was a pretty sweet interview, so you should just do yourself a favor and hit play above.

TONY DANZA TAP DANCE EXTRAVAGANZA interview is probably most random yet

Its the end of the night, we just watched BENEATH THE MASSACRE get their show stopped because of too much violence, as well as get some interviews with BORN OF OSIRIS and SEE YOU NEXT TUESDAY. Then, Danza was up. As we were approaching the band, drummer Brandon let us know that the singer, Jessie, was pretty drunk. Talk about understatement of the year. This was seriously the most random segment in MI history. It was pretty great. Luckily we caught up with a more sober Danza, this past weekend at the New England Metal and Hardcore Festival and we'll make sure to get that interview up really soon.
