see ya tomorrow
The world is full of monsters. As a parent I am aware of this everyday. My children are now grown and young adults out in the world. I was often told as they were growing up that I was to overprotective and that nothing would happen. I tried and we were lucky so far, and I hope to remain so. My Friends in NJ were not so lucky as to the recent events that have befallen them. The loss of their daughter Autumn has touched me deeply, the callousness in the way the alleged perpetrators treated her sickens me. Now the blame game will begin, “I was mistreated as a child”, “My father wasn’t around”, etc. etc., well I got news for you, I WAS mistreated as a child, and my parents were at times neglectful. But you know what? I CHOSE NOT TO CARRY ON THAT CYCLE. YES, YOU HEARD ME, I MADE THE DECISION. All of your actions are chosen by you. Own them they’re yours. Now, take the time and talk to your loved ones and be a part of their life.
Rest In Piece Autumn Pasquale, the world dimmed a bit with your loss. If you want to donate to Autumn’s family and make sure that your donations

“Wires”
some cool cameos in it
the Hellion
MISSING…..Our friend’s daughter AUTUMN PASQUALE has not been seen since yesterday afternoon at her fathers house in Clayton, NJ. 12 years old, 5’4
In 1991 I first heard of theses guys and was totally wowed. Killer vocals, riffs, and talented players made these guys contenders .
Formed by the Gioeli brothers Johnny (vocals) and Joey (guitars) in 1991 they recruited Neal Schon (guitar), Todd Jensen (bass) and Deen Castronovo (drums) to round out the group. “Hot Cherie” and “Rhythm From A Red Car” were but two of the outstanding track from their debut release Double Eclipse.
It was ten years before we got II and there had been lineup changes. Johnny Gioeli – vocals, Josh Ramos – lead guitar, Joey Gioeli – guitar, Bobby Rock – drums, Christopher Maloney – bass guitar, Michael T. Ross – keyboards. Another solid release from Hardline!
2009’s Leaving The End Open brought more line-up changes: Johnny Gioeli – Vocals, Josh Ramos – Guitars, Michael T. Ross – Keyboards, Jamie Brown – Bass, Atma Anur – Drums, Jun Senoue – Solo Guitar in “Before This”. Hardline continued to develop and grow as a band with this release.
The future looks bright for Hardline with the release of 2012’s Danger Zone and yes more line up changes: Johnny Gioeli (Vocals, 1991–1992, 1999–present), Alessandro Del Vecchio (Keyboards, 2011–present), Thorsten Koehne (Guitars, 2011–present), Anna Portalupi (Bass, 2011–present), Francesco Jovino (Drums, 2011–present). They are solid as ever and things are looking great for the future.
Check out Hardline and enjoy!

Another smoking edition of bands you should be listening to! They just keep coming and coming, so listen up!

http://www.crashandburncartel.com/
Soilent Green is:Ben Falgoust (Goatwhore), Brian Patton (Eyehategod), Tommy Buckley (Crowbar) and Scott Crochet. They say only the strong survive and for Louisiana swamp grinders Soilent Green, no truer words were ever spoken. Hardly strangers to adversity, Soilent’s two-decade-old history is fraught with lineup changes, van collisions, murder, suicide and a hurricane casualty. And yet, they soldier on, driven by passion, patience, perseverance and a will to dominate.
2. GOATWHORE

Goatwhore was formed by singer/guitarist Sammy Duet following the breakup of his previous band, Acid Bath. Soilent Green singer L. Ben Falgoust II, guitarist Ben Stout, bassist Patrick Bruders, and drummer Zak Nolan completed the lineup, which debuted with the demo Serenades to the Tides of Blood; Goatwhore’s proper debut LP, The Eclipse of Ages into Black, followed in early 2000. Funeral Dirge for the Rotting Sun appeared in 2003 before the band jumped to Metal Blade for the fall release of 2006’s A Haunting Curse. They performed at both Ozzfest 2008 and Ozzfest 2010.
In 2009, Goatwhore released their fourth album, entitled Carving out the Eyes of God, and toured with Obituary, among others.
In January and February 2010, Goatwhore embarked on the ‘Bound By The Road’ Tour with DevilDriver, Suffocation, and Thy Will Be Done.
In early 2012, the band released their fifth album, entitled Blood for the Master.

http://www.youtube.com/orangegoblinofficial
Inspired by the gods of hard rock, heavy metal, punk rock and underground extremity, from Sabbath, Motörhead and Thin Lizzy through to Celtic Frost, Danzig and Black Flag, Orange Goblin were initially seen as major contenders amid the mid-90s stoner rock explosion, but it soon became apparent that this band had much more up their collective wizard’s sleeve than red-eyed boogie and flapping flares. In fact, over the course of their roller coaster career, the band have proved themselves to be one of the most consistent and persistent forces in modern heavy music, amassing a catalogue of albums that rivals anything released during the same period. From the rambunctious, heads-down exuberance of their Frequencies From Planet Ten debut in 1997 through to the multi-genre bonfire of insanities that was 2007’s Healing Through Fire, Orange Goblin have always kicked arse, always written songs that hit home like a stage diver’s boot connecting with your forehead, always delivered the rampaging heavy metal goods while meaning every last riff, beat, solo and bellow.
7. THE WRETCHED END
http://www.facebook.com/thewretchedend
Musically THE WRETCHED END can best be described as EXTREME METAL, with influences from both black, death and thrash metal.
8. SWITCHBLADE SCARLETT
http://www.facebook.com/switchbladescarlett
What do you get when you have an MTV “MADE” coach, two of the hottest indie-rock producers and one of Guitar Player Magazine’s top five guitar players under 30? You have Switchblade Scarlett!
9. RAGDOLL
http://www.facebook.com/ragdollrock
With an authentic sound and an unrivalled dedication to the music, nothing’s discounted in developing a Ragdoll original, that’s why each and every tune evokes that certain something… something almost indescribable… something you can’t quite put your finger on. It’s that ‘something’ that’s at the heart and soul of every Ragdoll song and every Ragdoll performance. It’s music steeped in tradition, paying homage to the greats and ghosts of the past while forging its own exciting new path through the Rock wilderness.
10. A PALE HORSE NAMED DEATH
http://apalehorsenameddeath.com/
A Pale Horse Named Death is an American goth metal band based out of Brooklyn, New York. It was created by Sal Abruscato (a former drummer for Type O Negative) and produced / engineered by Matt Brown of Seventh Void / Uranium 235.
