CHIMAIRA: New Album Due In April
Ferret Music has reportedly set an April 28, 2009 North American release date for the new album from Cleveland, Ohio's CHIMAIRA. The follow-up to 2007's "Resurrection" will be recorded with producer Ben Schigel. CHIMAIRA is alsolooking for label to release the new album in territories outside North America (the band is no longer signed to Nuclear Blast, which released "Resurrection" in Europe).
CHRIST INVERSION, the project featuring Philip Anselmo (DOWN, PANTERA, SUPERJOINT RITUAL) on guitar/backing vocals, Wayne Fabra (GRAVEYARD RODEO, NECROPHAGIA) on vocals, Jay Gracianette (SINKHOLE) on bass, Ross Karpelman (DOWN, THE MYSTICK KREWE OF CLEARLIGHT, DRIP, SOUTHERN ISOLATION) on keyboards, and Gary Herbert (GRAVEYARD RODEO) on drums, will release its self-titled debut album on October 28 via Housecore Records. The band's second demo, 1995's "13th Century Luciferian Rites", will also be made available at some point in the not-too-distant future.
Formed in 1994, CHRIST INVERSION was a short lived black/death metal project formed by Anton Crowley (a.k.a. Philip Anselmo). Most of their lyrics were based on horror films and Satanism. The band recorded two demos and then disbanded without ever recording a full-length album. The first demo, "Obey The Will Of Hell", was re-released in 2004 by Funeral in Hell Records. On MySpace the band describes its sound as "the venomous vomit of Satan!" and cites its influences as VENOM, CELTIC FROST and Satan.
AC/DC Guitarist Slams Apple's iTunes: 'We Don't Make Singles, We Make Albums'
AC/DC refuse to allow their work to be sold on iTunes because they argue that their albums are complete pieces of work that represent them at a certain time and place in their musical career and are not just a bunch of individual downloads to be cherry-picked by fans.
Because iTunes steadfastly refuses to "lock" any album (the vast majority of songs on the site can be downloaded as individual tracks), AC/DC don't just boycott the online store, but are now active anti-iTunes evangelists.

SHARON OSBOURNE's 'Rock Of Love Charm School' Premiering This Month
Premiering on VH1 on Sunday, October 12 at 9:00 p.m. Osbourne has been given the task of teaching some of the most notorious contestants from "Rock of Love with Bret Michaels" the art of becoming more lady-like.
The contestants will focus on one lesson a week followed by a demanding test, like deftly working the room at a cocktail party, presenting themselves professionally before music industry veterans, or serving high tea with an English duchess. As the girls learn to trade-in pole dancing for polite society, whoever doesn't measure up to the challenges of "Charm School" will be expelled. In the end, the last one standing will be rewarded with $100,000 to put towards her new and improved life.
