On The Metallic Onslaught: Shoebox...Well, what do you think? Right.
Important update though: everyone else was there as usual! The electronic
keyboard played "Wake Me Up Before You Go Go", and Jeffie was there. He
asked the others who the girl in the princess outfit was. They asked him
what the hell he was talking about. He repeated it. They said they had no
idea what he was talking about (as usual), and that he must be even crazier
than he normally is. They claimed there was no such person there, so Jeffie
concluded that he now had a princess in his head. However, we could in fact
hear the princess. Jeffie started talking about Joe's vibrating cell phone,
and how cool it was, and the princess commanded him to get it for her. So,
Jeffie tried to do just that, which resulted in a brawl between him and Joe
in which Jeffie was unsuccessful in obtaining the phone. The next talk
break, the princess said she was extremely disappointed in Jeffie (she was
not the first nor will she be the last to say that), and commanded him to
try again to bring her the phone. The others told Jeffie that Rick now had
the phone..Jeffie tried to take the phone from Rick, and Rick demolished him
with a big block of Styrofoam.. Next break the princess was still upset with
Jeffie for not bringing her the phone. She told him to try yet again..Jeffie
did and got beaten down once again with Styrofoam and CD's..After this
failure, the princess became very upset with Jeffie, beat him down with
Styrafoam, and then left..Although the others claimed to Jeffie that they
could not see or hear a princess, behind Jeffie's back they spoke to
her..Jeffie caught them doing this, and asked them why they could in fact
talk to the princess in his head..He was not happy about this..After Rick
had gone (but remember because it's very important, he was there), Jeffie
said that he was sad because the show was just not right without Rick
there..Oh, and before he left, Rick said that he will probably not be there
this coming week because he will be attending the Shadows Fall concert. So,
the show will just have to try and find some way to manage without him, as
hard as that may be...
On The Last Exit: First off, it was not, after all, a re-airing of the
Armageddon show from 2002, as the gangs' plans for that day and night
(attending a wrestling show and / or a concert, fell through for various
reasons), so, the well deserved night off will have to wait for another
time..Too bad for them, but nice for us to hear a live show (although the
Armageddon show was a great show!). Amazingly, co-host David finally showed
back up again. Just Joe was also there. He related an event from his week
which was the latest in a long series of illustrations of just how stupid he
is. It seems he managed to drive off the road, into an embankment, and into
a creek. He was told that there would be a special guest coming up just for
him. It turned out to be a garden gnome which they later dubbed Sally
(although it was a male gnome). :) It was decided that, in an attempt to
conduct a social experiment, Just Joe and Rahul from Ithaska would take the
garden gnome out for a walk..Azkath accompanied them, so David filled in for
a bit. He let Foul Mouth Girl talk on the air for one talk break, and she
actually somehow managed to get through it without swearing once! Will
wonders never cease, another sign that Armageddon is indeed near perhaps?)
:) When they returned and reported on the experiment, we learned the
following information: No. 1: Girls apparently love you when you are covered
in stickers. No. 2: they apparently do not like you when you are in a giant
pair of pants. And, now, No 3: When you are accompanied by a garden gnome,
apparently the guys love you, or, at least, they love the garden gnome, as
many of them wanted to pose with it, and some kissed it. So, take note of
that ladies, get yourself a garden gnome, and you too could attract a lot of
guys. I must remember to try it sometime. And who said you couldn't learn
anything from this show?!! After this, the adventures were not over yet for
Just Joe. Stephanie aka Mynx was back, and as she had done when she was
there a few weeks ago, she brought hand cuffs with her. When she was there a
few weeks back it was hoped that she would be able to hand cuff Just Joe.
That time it didn't happen (although Azkath did beat him down with them).
This time, however, it did. And she also wrapped him up in duct tape, so,
now he was the duct tape mummy...Just Joe did manage to power out of it
(rather impressively, actually) and ripped off skin doing so. Very cool! So,
another fun filled show. And, my apologies to everyone for my mistakenly
identifying Vicki as a member of the band Dope Stars Inc. in my recap last
week, instead of as a part of their street team, which, she is. Sorry for my
mistake.
*********************************************************************
I have not heard from If Man is Five who I wanted at The Last Exit this
week, so I doubt they will be making it up, but you never know. Should be
an interesting show, maybe we will even declare it our season premiere, you
know, cause everything seems to have one, even WWE RAW and Smackdown, why
not The Last Exit? We shall see. Also not sure what is up for The Metallic
Onslaught, but I myself, Azkath, was thinking about stopping in and giving
them a few interesting suggestions. Have to see if I make it. Oh, and I
have yet to put the latest Best of CD up on the website. Yeah, sorry, will
be there soon...

For Immediate Release:
ANTHRAX GIVES THE POWER TO THE PEOPLE
Throughout their infamous 20 year career, the mighty ANTHRAX has always
prided themselves on being a band of the people, for the people and by the
people. This being said and with 2004 being an election year, ANTHRAX have
taken that ideal one step further with their upcoming release, THE GREATER
OF TWO EVILS, an all out assault on their history with each song being voted
on by their fans via the Internet.
Recorded “live” in the studio over the course of two days, THE GREATER OF
TWO EVILS stands out, as guitarist Scott Ian puts it, “As a raw, balls out,
and in your face representation of how brutal this band is, was, and will
always be.”
Covering their history from 1984 – 1990, THE GREATER OF TWO EVILS is made up
of fourteen classic ANTHRAX songs the fans demanded by way of the thousands
of votes from all over the world received on the band’s official website,
anthrax.com. Based on those votes, the band entered Avatar studios in NYC
one cold and snowy weekend last winter and took a trip back in time to
revisit songs from their formative releases Fistful Of Metal(1984),
Spreading The Disease(1985), Among The Living(1987), State Of
Euphoria(1988), and Persistence Of Time(1990).
“It was just the five of us in a room ripping. It was intense,” Ian
continues, “like when we first wrote these songs and started playing them
for the first time. Except now the songs have evolved after years of
playing them live to where I wish they were when we first recorded them.
Like good whisky, they’ve aged wonderfully. There’s so much energy on this
record. Busting the tracks out live in two days was definitely the way to do
it. What’s crazy is when I listen to it it’s like I’m listening to it from
outside the band because it’s made up of all these old songs that we haven’t
played much over the years and I really only know the studio versions so
when I hear John singing them, it’s like I get to here it from your point of
view if that makes any sense. And let me tell ya, John and Rob are killing
on this.”
“Our fans have been so loyal over the years that we wanted to give them
something special,” explains drummer Charlie Benante, “so we came up with
the idea of letting them pick the songs for this album. Not to take away
from our past, but ever since John has been in the band, people are always
coming up to us and saying ‘I wish you would re-record this’ or ‘I would
love to hear John sing that,’ so we did it and it came out great.”
A point that lead singer John Bush expounds upon, “When I joined Anthrax 12
years ago we wrote and recorded Sound Of White Noise. Although, at that
time, we felt we were going to play a lot of those tunes live, there was
still a giant catalog of older songs for me to learn. From that time until
now I’ve embraced those older songs like they were children of my own.
Taking nothing away from the original versions, because they definitely
stand tall on their own, it felt like a good idea to give the fans the
choice if they wanted to hear new versions of these songs and which songs
they wanted to hear the most. This is not an attempt to relive the past,
just an attempt to kick 'em out with the 21st century line-up of Anthrax.”
And kick ‘em out they do. Well known songs like “Caught In A Mosh,”
“Madhouse,” and “Indians,” get the update as well as lesser know songs such
as “Panic,” “Gung Ho,” and “Deathrider,” with the latter getting the biggest
over-haul. Charlie Benante explains: “While we didn’t want to deviate too
much from the original recordings, we didn’t want to be strapped to them
either. There are a few changes here and there with “Deathrider” being the
one that stands out the most. On our first album, Fistful Of Metal, that
song is a blast from the beginning to the end, one speed, that’s it. On the
new version it's still fast, but we pull-up a bit in the verses going to
half-time, which makes it heavier and flow better. No one will be
disappointed…Trust me.”
Complete tracklisting includes:
1. Deathrider
2. Metal Thrashing Mad
3. Caught In A Mosh
4. A.I.R.
5. Among The Living
6. Keep It In The Family
7. Indians
8. Madhouse
9. Panic
10. I Am The Law
11. Belly Of The Beast
12. N.F.L.
13. Be All End All
14. Gung-Ho
All the artwork for THE GREATER OF TWO EVILS was done by Shepard Fairey, the
subterranean legend best known for his Andre The Giant inspired OBEY
graphics. “We wanted something different this time out,” says Benante who
serves not only as drummer and songwriter but as the resident art director
as well. “Our last two releases we used famed painter Alex Ross who did two
unbelievable covers for us (2003’s critically acclaimed We’ve Come For You
All and their live DVD/CD Music Of Mass Destruction which was released
earlier this year.), and we wanted to go in a slightly different direction.
The cover is very ‘flat,’ in a good way, and the colors are striking. It
will work great as the cover, in posters, t-shirts, whatever, it's just a
cool image.”
ANTHRAX hopes that THE GREATER OF TWO EVILS serves as a history lesson and a
starting off point for the whole new generation of fans who were turned onto
the band over the course of the last couple of years, something that was
quite evident during their never-ending 2003-04 MUSIC OF MASS DESTRUCTION
World Tour. On that tour, which took them to virtually every continent on
the planet including shows in Russia, the Czech Republic, Poland, and
Hungary, the members of ANTHRAX were noticing that their crowds were being
made up of kids who were not old enough to be around when the previously
mentioned Among The Living was released some years ago. “Its weird,” says
Benante, “when I talk to our fans I find myself amazed that we have made
such an impact for all these years. When we first started we were kids with
nothing to do who just wanted to play. The fact that we have been around
for a generation and continue to play to thousands of kids all around the
world 9 months out of the year, I would have never have believed it. I think
this album brings it back full circle.”

For Immediate Release:
Screaming Ferret Wrecords/Escapi Music Reissues Rare CIA Release Attitude
Intense Solo Album By Glenn Evans Of Nuclear Assault Delivers
9 Tracks Of Pure Aggression
In whetted anticipation of the forthcoming Nuclear Assault studio effort,
Screaming Ferret Wreckords/Escapi Music has delved into the vaults and, on
January 4th, is issuing a re-mastered edition of Attitude, the extremely
rare sophomore solo effort by Nuclear Assault’s legendary drummer Glenn
Evans under the moniker CIA.
Originally released to limited capacity in 1992, Attitude displays both
Glenn’s amazing musical prowess, and his humanity. According to Glenn, “The
CIA Attitude album was recorded in a period of my life when things were
beginning to fall apart…my marriage, Nuclear Assault, and life in general.
Everyone has those periods in their life at one time or another. I had a lot
of emotions flowing through me and the easiest way to get them out was
through music. I was proud of it then, and I’m proud of it now. It never
really had a proper release, and this time around it will.”
Glenn describes this album as “one of the proudest moments of my insane
life.” And for good reason. The 9 blistering tracks on Attitude really show
Glenn’s abilities beyond just amazing skills as a drummer. Glenn is a
songwriter, and it shows. The opening track “Ace in the Hole” compels the
listener to chant along to the chorus, while “No Need to Impress”
illustrates Glenn’s feelings of self-reliance.
The complete tracklisting for Attitude includes:
Ace In The Hole No Remorse
Don’t Waste My Time Pull The Trigger
Can’t Find My Way No Need To Impress
Sword Of Democles Land Of Gloom And Doom
Right Or Wrong
An mp3 of the track “Ace In The Hole” is available for download here:
http://www.screamingferret.com/sfw_audio/CIA_av/CIA_Ace_in_the_Hole.mp3
Perhaps the most impressive fact about this album is that it couples Nuclear
Assault’s trademark aggression with Glenn’s advanced technical musicianship
as he plays guitar, drums, bass, and provides vocals. Glenn shares guitar
duties with original Nuclear Assault axeman Anthony Bramante and longtime
friend, Dave DiPietro. This revival of a creative teaming from the past
would later lead to a strong addition to the Nuclear Assault ranks: “It was
also the beginning of re-uniting with Dave DiPietro, my early co-band mate
with T.T. Quick” says Glenn, “In fact, this album was the stepping-stone for
Dave to joining Nuclear Assault for the Something Wicked album and tour. He
is an amazing guitarist, and I was proud to have him perform on the record.”
With fans eagerly awaiting the new Nuclear Assault album due for release in
early 2005, Attitude is guaranteed to keep the metal masses satisfied.

TOP STORIES OF THE WEEK
--------- Photographer Flashes and Takes Pics, Too ---------
Columbus, Ohio - Stephen Linnen, known as the "naked photo-
grapher" is pleading guilty. It seems that Linnen was
flashing unsuspecting women and then snapping their
reactions. He pleaded guilty to 53 counts as a deal with
prosecutors and will face up to a year in prison. The
original counts hold a possible 15-year sentence. In a few
weeks, the "naked photographer" will be sentenced and may
have to register as a sex offender, pending the judge's
decision. I hope he puts some new snapshots in the prison
newsletter.
_________________________________________________
* People Who Need Better Excuses: (1) A 27-year-old man,
arrested in July after allegedly trying to rob a Bank of America in
Enid, Okla., told police he merely intended to help repay the
national debt. (2) Thomas Pinckney, 18, charged with trespass in
Tomah, Wis., in June after a woman awoke at night to find him
holding her arm, told police that he had found the woman's keys in
her apartment door and was just trying to return them. (3) Mr.
Thubten Dargyel, 53, who was arrested for sexual assault on a
mentally disabled woman in Madison, Wis., in June, explained the
presence of his semen by claiming that he ejaculates when he
sneezes and that, in fact, he was surprised only that his semen
doesn't show up on many other patients, too.
___________________________________________________
* Recurring Themes: The unnamed young man who won the latest
"Jackass" contest, sponsored by Chicho's Restaurant in Virginia
Beach, Va., in August, first came to the attention of police when he
was spotted wandering around at 1 a.m. bleeding from an amateur
Mohawk haircut. Also, his chest, stomach, buttocks, and legs were
heavily industrial-strength-stapled, and he had slice marks on his
side and a broken collarbone (from a back flip off the bar). He had
also swallowed and vomited a live goldfish and broken a beer
bottle over his head, but all in all, he said, he was proud. (The
restaurant manager was fired.)
__________________________________________________
John Hutcherson, 21, was arrested in Marietta,
Ga., in August for vehicular homicide and DUI after he drove 12
miles home and went to bed, allegedly oblivious of the dead body
of his good friend that was hanging out his passenger-side window.
According to police, the 23-year-old pal had been decapitated by a
telephone pole guide wire when he stuck his head out the window
after Hutcherson veered off the road. A neighbor alerted police the
next morning when he saw the body still draped on the door of
Hutcherson's truck.

Rabbi 'dismembered by rent boy'
Press Association
Wednesday September 15, 2004
The Guardian
A trainee rabbi was strangled by a "tattooed rent boy type" and his body
dismembered after a night drinking in a gay bar, a court heard yesterday.
Gifted linguist Andreas Hinz's limbs and head had been "sawn off", they were
wrapped in bin liners and put out for the dustman.
But refuse collectors failed to arrive, and a combination of summer heat, a
"terrible smell" and a cloud of flies eventually led to the gruesome
discovery, London's Southwark crown court was told.
Within days Thomas McDowell had been arrested and confessed to the killing
during a walk with a police officer in an exercise yard, said Michael
Lawson, prosecuting.
He told the jury that the 27-year-old - who denies murder but admits
manslaughter - first described choking his victim to death after laying him
out with a "martial arts" kick.
According to the officer's recollection, the defendant then added: "I sat
with him all night ... it all happened so quickly. I don't understand it. I
have been having nightmares ... I am not a violent man."
A later search of McDowell's flat revealed traces of Mr Hinz's blood despite
intensive efforts to bleach away any incriminating evidence.
The dead man's Hebrew numbered watch was also found along with his
briefcase, as well as a couple of stained bags thought to have been used to
temporarily store his limbs.
McDowell, of Camden, north London, denies one count of murder on July 3,
2002, but has pleaded guilty to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished
responsibility.
Opening the trial, counsel told jurors that they had to decide whether the
defendant intended to kill his victim or at least cause him "really serious
harm". He said that Mr Hinz, a 37-year-old German in the second year of a
course to become a rabbi, had been described by one of his flatmates as
"complex and gifted".
Mr Lawson said Mr Hinz was a gay man who spent two to three evenings a week
at the Black Cap gay bar near Camden tube station. The night before his
death he arrived at the place at about 11pm and spent some time drinking
alone before striking up a conversation with the defendant.
Bar staff, asked to recall the evening, described McDowell as a "somewhat
unkempt rent boy type" with tattooed arms and what they thought was a
Scottish accent. They also spoke of having seen him earlier, drunk and
complaining that he had been "dumped" by his long-term boyfriend.
Mr Hinz's torso was found to have been wrapped in bin liners and tied up
with a length of flex. His limbs and head were then found later by police in
more plastic bags in the bins. With them were his skull cap and credit
cards. The trial continues.

--------------- Suicide Attempt Shot Down ------------------
LEOBEN, Austria - I guess if you're thinking about killing
yourself, you might as well be creative about it. At least
this man decided to be imaginative - he made an attempt to
kill himself using cobra snakes. However, his efforts were
thwarted by Austrian police who hit him with pepper spray
and shot him in the thigh. The suicidal man had over 60
poisonous snakes in his apartment and ended up being bit
by one in the chaos with police officers. While drunk and
upset, he sent a cell phone message to his girlfriend to let
her know about the suicide attempt. Police arrived to find
him entwined by two deadly cobras, which he swung at
officers when they came at him. The man is now suffering
from the gunshot wound and snake bite, and the snakes have
since been given a new home at a zoo in southern Austria.

---------- Maybe She Was Looking for Bananas... ------------
KUALA LUMPUR - "'Til death do us part" came a little too
soon for one Malaysian couple when the man killed his wife
after he thought she was a monkey picking fruit in a tree
behind their house. Apparently the man, 70, didn't get a
very close look before recklessly firing a shotgun at the
tree. He is now being held by police for the death of his
wife who he mistook for a monkey rummaging in their mango-
steen tree on Monday. His wife had climbed a ladder into
the tree and was picking tropical fruit when she was shot
by her hubby. She was pronounced dead on arrival at a
hospital, the New Straits Times said. The couple resided
in central Malaysia and had raised 13 children.

----------------- That's Not Rated Pee-G -------------------
NEW YORK - The manager of a Blockbuster Video was closing up
for the night when an unruly customer refused to vacate the
premises. When the manager asked 33-year-old Steven Scott to
leave, Scott became so angry that he dropped his trousers
and urinated on the store's merchandise. Scott then fled the
store after snatching four DVDs and a blank tape. The manager
called police and provided a description of Scott. Police
were able to locate him outside an apartment building. He was
arrested and charged with possession of stolen property and
criminal trespass. I wonder what he'll do if Blockbuster
tells him he has overdue videos...

From The Onion
Duck Only Interested in Man's Bread
ST. PAUL, MN—Como Park visitor Daryl Wilson, 31, reported that he was
disappointed to discover that the ducks he'd fed for more than 20 minutes
Monday were only interested in his bread. "I thought I'd really connected
with the duckies," Wilson said. "But as soon as the bread ran out, they went
off to another part of the lake. All that time, they were just using me for
my crumbs." Wilson said he has not felt so rejected since the "squirrel and
peanuts incident" last year.
