THE MERCILESS BOOK OF METAL LISTS: New Quote Snippets from Kerry King and Philip Anselmo Released!
Hitting Stores April 9, 2013 — Written by NYC Music Scene Veterans Howie Abrams and Sacha Jenkins
Featuring Exclusive Photography by Iconic East Coast Photographer Frank White
“The Merciless Book Of Metal Lists, compiled by Howie Abrams and Sacha Jenkins, is the ultimate look at the world of heavy metal via the ease and convenience of a list. No stone is left unturned here, and I mean no stone. If you think you have a list about metal that isn’t in this book, chances are you’re wrong. Both Jenkins and Abrams have exhaustively researched and brainstormed Merciless and delivered a look at their beloved genre that is informative and fun.” – Iann Robinson, CraveOnline.com
THE MERCILESS BOOK OF METAL LISTS, written by NYC music scene veterans Howie Abrams and Sacha Jenkins, is set to be released on April 9, 2013. Touted as being “the most opinionated compendium ever written concerning Heavy Metal”, THE MERCILESS BOOK OF METAL LISTS is comprised of 208 jam-packed pages representing all that is glorious across the world of Heavy Metal. The book features dozens of never-before-seen photographs from iconic East Coast photographer Frank White.
The foreword for THE MERCILESS BOOK OF METAL LISTS comes from one of the most respected names in the genre, Slayer guitarist extraordinaire Kerry King, with a candid and passionate afterword from Pantera/Down frontman Philip Anselmo.
“This book will appeal to metalheads because it’s what they love. They’ll get to laugh at the industry and at themselves. Any information is good information, and metal kids want it.” – Kerry King (Slayer)
“I am an unabashed heavy metal fan, and I know as well as anyone, that metal fans can be an extremely loyal lot. But we are a very critical lot too. With each new movement, a new, defiant, outspoken, and sovereign audience is born. Music is older than all of us, so its history is ours to writhe in and absorb.” – Philip Anselmo(Pantera/Down)
There are numerous other contributions from key metal luminaries and industry personnel like:
Scott Ian (Anthrax)
Gary Holt (Exodus)
Max Cavalera (Sepultura/Soulfly)
Katon W. DePena (Hirax)
John Gallagher (Raven)
Danny Lilker (Nuclear Assault/SOD)
Eddie Trunk (That Metal Show)
Jon & Marsha Zazula (Megaforce Records)
Brian Slagel (Metal Blade Records)
Flemming Rasmussen (Metallica Producer)
ILL BILL (Heavy Metal Kings/La Coka Nostra)
MC Serch (3rd Bass)
Richard Christy (Charred Walls of the Damned/The Howard Stern Show)
Monte Conner (Roadrunner Records/Nuclear Blast Records)
Borivoj Krgin (Blabbermouth.net)
Shaun Glass (Soil/Dirge Within)
Betsy Weiss (Bitch)
Presented in the form of dozens of factual, random and often outrageous lists, THE MERCILESS BOOK OF METAL LISTS dares to call many out for being the worst instead of being the best. It points out the triumphs, as well as the miserable failures concerning metal, from a diehard fan’s point-of-view.
TMBML leaves no stone unturned, often blurring the lines separating fact and hilarity. You want to know about album covers that feature goats on them? WhatMotorhead icon Lemmy’s warts might tell you if they could speak? The achievements Iron Maiden would never have reached had their original vocalist Paul Dianno remained in the band? Well then, this book is for you.

New Jersey birthed heavy metal in the United States in the early 1980’s. The state of New Jersey was an integral part of launching the careers of these bands, as well as everyone from Bruce Springsteen to The Misfits to Bon Jovi and more. Now, ROCK N’ ROLL HEAVEN and the OLD BRIDGE METAL MILITIAare bringing these genre-founding metal bands together for this special event.
Eddie Trunk (That Metal Show) will perform Master of Ceremonies duties with special guest hosts and an all-star jam to be announced. With a now confirmed line-up of Anvil, Raven, The Rods and Lords of Mercy this evening is poised for a metal pounders delight.
Doors will open at 7:00pm and there will be a drinking section for those 21+. Tickets will go on sale shortly so stay tuned for purchase links coming soon.

ROCK N’ ROLL HEAVEN/Megaforce Records/ Crazed Management founders Jon and Marsha Zazula are gearing up for the reunion. “It’s really great to bring the Militia together again and we look forward to seeing all of the old faces and new faces, both young and old,” state the Zazula’s. “We’ve already heard that fans are coming in from Germany and even up from Florida. They don’t even know the line-up yet, that’s how cool this is! We can’t wait to bang with the best of them for this really good cause.”
John Gallagher of Raven adds, “We are proud to be part of this historic gathering of the clans of our old stomping grounds for such a worthy cause and are ready to kick major ass!!!”
“The Zazula’s and I made some great albums together,” adds Carl Canedy of The Rods. “Rock, Garry and I look forward to working with our good friends once again. No one throws a metal bash like the Z’s.”
Lips of Anvil states, “Doing this gig in NJ is exceptionally special to Anvil. We are expecting to see many of the original people we met back in ’82 when we played the Route 18 Flea Market. We have remained close friends through the metal ages… we look forward to our moments together again. See you all soon.”
Rockin Ray and Metal Joe, of the OLD BRIDGE METAL MILITIA adds, “We would like to take this opportunity to invite music lovers to a reunion of ROCK N’ ROLL HEAVEN and the OLD BRIDGE METAL MILITIA. It should be a rockin’ night that will benefit the victims of Superstorm Sandy. Please come and show your support.”
“Lords of Mercy are proud to be a part of such a historical event,” states Pete Perrina of local metal band Lords of Mercy. “We are ready to promote this show and kick ass come show time. This show is guaranteed to be one of the HEAVEST shows of 2013!”

Scattered Hamlet – Skeleton Dixie CD cover
1. Shelter
2. Outlaw Anthem
3. Warning
4. In Good Company
5. It’s Alright With Me
6. Falling Off The Wagon (Featuring Randy “The Arsonist” Cooper)
7. Guilty Plea
8. Mississippi Queen
9. Powder Kegs and Gasoline
10. Family Tree
11. Skeleton Dixie
I have anxiously awaited this CD for a while now. Now that I’ve had the chance to listen to it several times, it was worth the wait. This CD restores my faith in good old-fashioned guitar driven Rock N’ Roll. With nods to their various influences the members of Scattered Hamlet infuse this CD with the sound that makes Scattered Hamlet unique. This ain’t no pretty record, it’s loud, it’s dirty, and G-d bless it it’s ROCK N’ ROLL!!! These new songs coupled with their live performance makes Scattered Hamlet a band not miss when they invade a town near you. There is an outstanding guest on the track “Falling Off The Wagon” guitar great Randy “The Arsonist” Cooper. Randy’s guitar work in the track shows off his amazing playing skills. One of the earmarks for a great CD for me is that when I listen to it there is no need to skip tracks, there is no filler or throw away tracks on this. I cannot pick a favorite track because they are all worthy of that praise, I can, however, point out a couple of standout tracks: “Warning”, “Shelter”, “Powder Kegs and Gasoline”, and “Skeleton Dixie”. If you want a good time, feel good, driving down the road with the windows open, drinking beer with your buds, CD this is the one for 2013, look no further. Scattered Hamlet……HELL YES!!!! Pick it up here: http://scatteredhamletgeneralstore.bigcartel.com/
