American Fangs announce national tour with FOUR YEAR STRONG. The Houston rockers join for 33 dates hitting some of the nations major cities including New York, L.A., Boston, Philly, and much more!

American Fangs is a Houston born rock band (Gabe – Vocals, Micah – Drums, Jerry – Guitar, Kyle - Bass) whose energetic shows and intelligent music have brought them out of their southern roots and into national recognition.

Started by long time friends Gabe and Micah in 2008, the young group of artisans met in the local music scene of Houston and has been close friends for sometime now.  The “unscripted” tale of success began with casual jam sessions where the multi-talented foursome collaborated and the music synergy grew.

Boosting new rock edge in their effectual tracks, this quartet of twenty something’s deliver a sound that will evoke the inner rock star in you, or anti-rock star. “We like our rough edges” Gabe explains about their catchy lyrics and eclectic influence. “Sometimes I have an indie pop moment and I lose my mind, and it’s cool”.

Grammy nominated, multi-platinum hard rock band Disturbed is celebrating its 10th anniversary with a special gift to fans: a documentary entitled Decade of Disturbed.  Starting August 26th, five days before the release of their new album Asylum, Decade of Disturbed will play on the big screen in movie theaters in 13 cities across the country.  Decade of Disturbed will be also included with every purchase of Asylum.

The 75 + minute film, directed by Rafa Alcantara of TWENTYFOURCORE Productions, candidly captures the band's ten-year history, with extensive behind the scenes and never before seen footage.  "It basically tells the story of the band, from its inception to present day, says front man David Draiman.  "The band has had its share of ups and downs along the way and I think we tried to be as open and honest about all of it as we could. It's very insightful and we hope its something the fans will appreciate."  Full preview screening information can be found at www.disturbed1.com or http://cinemapurgatorio.com/movies/decade-of-disturbed.

The first single off Asylum, "Another Way to Die," is a #1 hit at Active Rock Radio. This is the highest Billboard Active Rock debut in Disturbed's history and the fastest # 1 for the band on Billboard's Active Rock chart, getting to #1 in just 4 weeks.  It is also the fastest # 1 on Billboard's Active Rock chart in over 3 years and is the band's 7th # 1 single on Billboard's Active Rock chart: they are tied with Metallica for the 3rd most #1's on the Active Rock chart.

On August 17th the Chicago four-piece will hit the road to headline the first annual Rockstar Energy Drink UPROAR Festival, which runs through October 4th.  Also on the bill are Avenged Sevenfold, Stone Sour, Halestorm, and Hell Yeah. Tickets for UPROAR are on sale now. Please visit http://www.rockstaruproar.com  for details.

Richie Hayward from Little Feat died from liver cancer on August 12, 2010.”
RIP Richie and thanks for some great drumfills...

From Wikipedia: "In August 2009, Richie Hayward announced that he had recently been diagnosed with liver cancer and would not be at work indefinitely. A benefit concert was organized and a website created where fans unable to attend could donate towards his treatment costs. Hayward lived in Canada, outside of his native USA, and did not have health insurance. Little Feat have announced that their drum technician Ford will take his place. "

As THE BLACK CROWES' "Say Goodnight To The Bad Guys" tour gets set to start Friday, August 13-their last before the group takes an extended hiatus-the band has put together a web series of interviews with frontman CHRIS ROBINSON chronicling the multi-million selling band's storied career.  The "20 Years of Tall Tales" webseries-available at www.blackcrowes.com and via YouTube throughout August--is a candid look inside the band's history.  In a recent webisode, CHRIS talks about the bacchanalian party the band threw upon the completion of the amorica album, replete with bizarre costumes, psychedelic mushrooms and cameras rolling.

 The webisodes debuted Tuesday, August 3, the street date for CROWEOLOGY (Silver Arrow/Megaforce Records), their first-ever double album of all-acoustic material with new arrangements of their best-loved songs and deep cuts. In a four-star review, David Fricke of Rolling Stone proclaimed, "...the album is much better than a greatest hits affair, it's a reason to go on (8/19/10)."
 
The web series has received attention from Ad Age. In a story headlined "Black Crowes Interview Series Shows How to Market Music," the magazine described the series as a "a daily series of interview clips that, taken together, forge an oral history of the band." The piece also noted: "What's surprising is that so few performers have attempted to sidle up to their fans in a similar manner. Granted, there aren't too many acts that can pull something like this off, whether owing to deficiencies in backstory or charisma, but I'm amazed by how few are trying (8/5/10)."
 
New webisodes are appearing over the next month, but check out these that have appeared so far...with more to come.
