“When it comes to putting shows together, there are few people more important than the roadies and techs that make sure shit runs smoothly. Without them, you’d have bands doing all the work and while that’s fine for smaller acts or kids getting their feet under them, it’s impossible for major acts touring all over the world. So you’d think an act like Slaughter To Prevail would hire a tour manager that would make sure the people making the shows run would be properly taken care of. Yet according to allegations from the band’s (now former) drum tech Thomas Finch, that’s allegedly not been the case. In a post on his personal Facebook account over the weekend, he laid out a working condition that at face value seems exploitative, abusive, and likely illegal. And while he claims the band themselves are “all WONDERFUL, fun, loving humans,” his main beef lands squarely at their management. Finch’s statement alleges that all of the issues happened while the band was on its run with Marilyn Manson and deals with Slaughter To Prevail’s “new band manager and current [tour manager’s]” alleged “disorganization, mismanagement, financial instability, and blatant disrespect toward crew members.” (Loudwire)

It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning," his family said in a statement on Tuesday (July 22). "He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis."-Loudwire

“John Michael "Ozzy" Osbourne (3 December 1948 – 22 July 2025) was an English singer, songwriter, and media personality. He rose to prominence during the 1970s as the lead vocalist of the heavy metal band Black Sabbath, during which period he adopted the nickname "Prince of Darkness". Osbourne became a founding member of Black Sabbath in 1968, providing lead vocals from their eponymous debut studio album in 1970 to Never Say Die! in 1978. The band was highly influential in the development of heavy metal music, in particular their critically acclaimed releases Paranoid (1970), Master of Reality (1971), and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath (1973). Osbourne was fired from Black Sabbath in 1979 due to problems with alcohol and other drugs. He then began a successful solo career with Blizzard of Ozz in 1980 and released 13 studio albums, the first seven of which received multi-platinum certifications in the US. He reunited with Black Sabbath on several occasions. He rejoined in 1997 and helped record the band's final studio album, 13 (2013), before they embarked on a farewell tour that ended with a 2017 performance in their native Birmingham.” (Wiki)

“My Chemical Romance kicked off their Long Live the Black Parade tour in Seattle last weekend in grand, theatrical fashion — though some casual observers have expressed confusion and criticized the band’s “weird demonic” stunts and “theatrical propaganda. My Chemical Romance are playing their landmark 2006 album, The Black Parade, in full on their latest tour — and much of the online discourse stems from one key moment during last Saturday’s tour kickoff show. Between “Welcome to the Black Parade” and “I Don’t Love You,” frontman Gerard Way led the audience in an “experiment” and “a practice of democracy.” The band trotted out four “candidates” with sacks over their heads and held an “election,” beckoning audience members to hold up a sign that said either “YEA” or “NAY.” Apparently, the majority of the audience voted “NAY,” as the four candidates were “shot” execution-style and removed from the B-stage on which they stood. “Thank you so very much for participating in democracy,” Way said with a wry smile before the band continued playing.” (Loudwire)

BACK TO THE BEGINNING Was Great! (Farewell Ozzy!) = https://youtu.be/qDGi6c6_9Us

“Back to the Beginning was a concert by the English rock band Black Sabbath, with a number of supporting artists. It took place on 5 July 2025 at Villa Park in Aston, Birmingham, England, very near where the band was formed in 1968. The event concluded with the final live performances of both the band and lead singer Ozzy Osbourne; it also marked the first time since 2005 that the original line-up of the band (Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward) had performed together live. Osbourne, no longer able to walk due to advanced Parkinson's disease, sang while seated on a throne. The widely-lauded concert was streamed worldwide via pay per view with a broadcast delay. It featured an all-star lineup of supporting acts, including two supergroups of musicians serving as the house band. Proceeds from the event totalled £140 million, and will be donated to charity.” (Wiki)

“Everybody wants a piece of humble pie apparently, as ex-Asking Alexandria frontman Dennis Stoff fires off on Instagram about the band's recent shoddy performance at Warped Tour, and the fact that they – according to Stoff – owe him $5,000,000 in unpaid royalties. Dennis Stoff was a member of Asking Alexandria from 2015 to 2016, through the duration of their The Black record. Current vocalist Danny Worsnop fronted the band from 2008 until 2015 before leaving for almost two years and rejoining in 2016. Dennis Stoff was the frontman during this time.” (Metal Injection)

“Hinds has never made a public comment about what happened or how he feels about his split with Mastodon… though a comment on a recent Mastodon Instagram post about Once More 'Round The Sun turning 10 certainly sheds some light on that. One fan commented that "Halloween" is their favorite track on the record and that they'll miss Hinds being in the band. Hinds responded: "I want [sic] miss being in a shit band with horrible humans." So I'm guessing this split wasn't exactly amicable.” (Metal Injection)

SONG OF THE WEEK: Parkway Drive “Sacred” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8v4oxxvs8iY

“Seether’s May 29th performance at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tulsa, OK took an unexpected detour when frontman Shaun Morgan called out venue security over the removal of his 7-year-old daughter from the stage during the set. Given the casino setting, the venue enforces a strict 21+ policy—something that seemingly extended beyond the gaming floor and bar area last night, leading to a heated moment in front of a packed crowd. According to fan accounts and footage, Morgan’s daughter was standing side-stage with credentials when she was removed by a member of the venue staff. While not in a public area of the casino, the underage policy apparently extended to the stage itself. The decision didn’t sit well with Morgan, who stopped the show and tore into security before launching into a particularly scathing version of “Remedy”. (The Mosh Network)
