ZZ Top Amassed '20 CDs of Starter Material' Before Creating 'La Futura'

Chad Childers — Sat, 25 Aug 2012 12:04:33 +0000

ZZ Top aren’t exactly the “turn around a new album every year” kind of band anymore, but even by their standards, their latest stint between records was rather long. Part of the reason for that is the perfectionist streak that went into the ‘La Futura’ disc, courtesy of noted producer Rick Rubin.

The one time Led Zeppelin frontman has a new band, the Sensational Space Shifters, who made their US debut by headlining the 25th annual Sunflower Blues Festival on Aug. 11.

Jeff Giles — Tue, 24 Jul 2012 14:18:22 +0000

As anyone who’s ever read a Steven Tyler press release knows, it can be difficult to understand where he’s really coming from on any particular subject, and Tyler’s rambling explanation for the last-minute scheduling bump for the new Aerosmith record is no exception. Happily, we have guitarist Brad Whitford to set the record straight.

Bret Michaels Works With Michael Anthony, Ace Frehley, Lynyrd Skynyrd + More for New Solo Album

Billy Dukes — Sat, 14 Jul 2012 11:45:01 +0000

It’s somewhat misleading to call Bret Michaels‘ next album a solo effort, as he’s teamed up with nearly a dozen well-known rockers and country musicians. The Poison frontman has recorded the project without the band that made him famous. Instead, artists like Ace Frehley, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Aerosmith’s Joe Perry and many more will join him on Poison hits.

Dave Lifton — Sat, 07 Jul 2012 11:10:28 +0000

Often when a band breaks up, they take a handful of years off, then get back together for a tour. If that works well, then they get back into the studio for a new album. The Scorpions have subverted that formula, first by deciding not to break up, but also by announcing that they are working on a new album.

Aerosmith Album Rumored to Include Carrie Underwood Duet

Billy Dukes — Tue, 05 Jun 2012 14:35:30 +0000

At this point it’s only a rumor that country star Carrie Underwood recently dipped into a recording studio to cut vocals for the upcoming Aerosmith album, but it’s a rumor with a little sizzle. MJSBigBlog.com was the first to point out a well-connected Aerosmith fan’s Facebook post, claiming Underwood and Steven Tyler sing together on [...]

AC/DC Says When We Can Expect Their New Album

Dave Lifton — Mon, 14 May 2012 15:05:28 +0000

For a band that began their career by putting out 12 albums in the first 15 years of their career, AC/DC have become almost invisible as a studio entity in the ensuing 22 years. Despite still having massive global appeal, they’ve only released three albums since 1990′s ‘The Razor’s Edge,’ and nothing since 2008′s ‘Black Ice.’

Aerosmith's New Album Could Be Out in July

Jeff Giles — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 18:35:37 +0000

Amy Sciarretto — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 16:20:45 +0000

Soundgarden fans will have to wait a little bit longer for the band’s first album since 1996. The “reunion” album had a spring release date loosely attached to it, and singer Chris Cornell made the press rounds saying so. Now, Cornell has revealed the new album, the band’s first since ‘Down on the Upside,’ has been bumped to fall of this year. We’ve been waiting long enough — what’s a few more months? Patience, young Skywalker, right?
