Creature Comforts With JOHN 5

2024/10/13

The name John 5 is akin to God in the world of guitars.Over his career, John has played not only as part of bands, but also as a guest musician and gun for hire, to the extent that it would probably be easier to list the musicians he HASN'T played with before rather than the ones he has. But try this on for size. Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson, Rob Halford, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, David Lee Roth, Alice Cooper and Jim Root…Need I go on?But it is John 5's most recent role as guitarist for Motley Crue

Smelling The Coffee With SUMMER From KITSUNEVI

HEAVY Music Interviews ·

2024/10/07

Heavy metal music is alive and well in Japan.For a country more recognised for being conservative and polite when it comes to social interactions, the amount of talented, unrecognised and socially unacceptable bands doing the rounds is almost unfathomable.Over six previous visits to Japan with different touring bands I have witnessed everything from jazz to metal to rock to acoustic, but if there is one common denominator it is the universal wealth of talent that seems to be dripping from the

2024/10/05

As fans expectations for live performances grow, so do the elaborate stages and set pieces that bands are increasingly using in order to gain even the slightest of edges.
