The Sex Pistols to record new material

The SEX PISTOLS are set to record their first new material in 30 years after being spurred on by the success of their recent reunion tour. The legendary rockers got back on stage for a series of live dates last year (07) and the positive reaction from fans has convinced them to start work new tracks.The group hope to start recording in the first half of 2008 so that the new songs will be ready for their appearance at the Isle of Wight Festival in June (08).

Drummer Paul Cook says, “There’s talk of new material. The only problem is that it’s a bit hard to work on anything as John (Lydon) and Steve (Jones) are in America and Glen (Matlock) and I are in the U.K.. so it’s a case of finding the time to get together.

“We might not pull together an album but hopefully there will be some new stuff in time for the summer.“

Ron Paul and The US Bombs

The US Bombs are touring and will soon be in Atlanta on 1/28/08 at Vinyl, the same place they played last year and the perfect place for them to play in my opinion. It’s all about Ron Paul and of course the Bombs awesome music. We plan to be there in full force with camera and this year with a camcorder to document all the damage.

The Konks – Revisited

A few days ago myself and my favorite people got together to start a band, go on tour and rock out……..on one of my favorite X-mas gifts “Rock Star”. We cranked up the PS3 and began our tour as the “Ragdolls”. We played for a few hours, took a break in our makeshift green room (the kitchen) and went on to play a few more gigs. As we played a random setlist, the song “29 Fingers by The Konks” came up. As we were rockin it out our groupie exclaimed “this song is awesome” and we all agreed. I was thinking to myself at the time that I knew of the band The Konks and the thought quickly passed through my rock and roll addled brain. End.

Today as I resurrected MusicFilter back to its awesomeness with a full upgrade to the newest version which last night wasn’t too awesome, I was going through all my links and came across “The Konks” link which needed to be repaired. I went to the page and glanced over it and realized that on March 14th, 2005 I had done a review of their cd which was sent to me by Bomp! Records around that time to review.

Read the review right here. It is so cool when we find great music right in our awesome library of music. I turned the Musica on and the entire cd was on there, including the awesome “Rock Star” song by The Konks “29 Fingers”.
