Seriously, this has to be the best news I’ve heard yet today.
Gamers familiar with the Guitar Hero franchise know how addicting the games can be. Well, I’ve recently learned that the Sex Pistols (three of the four original Pistols, including Johnny “Rotten” Lydon, Paul Cook and Steve Jones) collaborated with Chris Thomas to re-record their famous track “Anarchy in the UK” for the upcoming Guitar Hero III.
I. Am. Excited. I love Guitar Hero, I love the Pistols, and this addition to the Guitar Hero franchise is going to rock.
Anti-Flag has recently entered the studio to work on recording their next full length. The band will be working with producer Tony Visconti this time around, and the album will be the follow up to 2006’s RCA release For Blood and Empire.
Also, keep an eye out for October 2nd when Anti-Flag will be releasing their EP, A Benefit for Victims of Violent Crime.
Proceeds from the sale of this EP will go to The Center for Victims of Violence and Crime.

Curiouser and curiouser…
Apparently, sources are saying that the New Jersey quartet The Gaslight Anthem have been removed from the Saints and Sinners Festival lineup.
The group, currently touring Germany, was notified that due to a “conflicting show,” they would be unable to play the festival.
Here’s the weird part – the alleged conflict of interests does not occur anywhere NEAR the Saints and Sinners Festival. As a matter of fact, it doesn’t even occur within the same month as the fest.
Something smells rotten, if you ask me.
In any case, check out their Myspace for the songs they are currently streaming and keep …read more
