If You Need A Gift For That Metalhead At Work...

Apparently you can now buy Slayer branded coolers. Yes, this comes in the "playmate" lunchbox size and it is $40. I saw this pop up on my Facebook feed and I thought it was hilarious. You know you're getting super old when the most brutal metal bands of your youth have partnerships with companies that sell tailgating and camping supplies.


Almost as funny as a punk band - Green Day - licensing music to Taco Bell for commercials. Money makes the world go 'round as they say.


No lie though, I would totally love to have a Slayer lunchbox.

The Coverups Do Motley Crue's 'Live Wire' 

Billie Joe Armstrong and Mike Dirnt of Green Day also have a side project called The Coverups... and they do cover songs. For whatever reason, I was surprised to see them do a Motley Crue tune.


Watch as The Coverups do "Live Wire." It is kind of crazy how Billie Joe Armstrong can make his voice sound high just like Vince Neil did on that original recording.

'Rock and Roll All Nite' -- New Cover

Here's a fun cover of the KISS class "Rock and Roll All Nite." Green Day performed the song during the Hella Mega Tour and released the track and video officially yesterday. It's a great cover. The guys in Green Day did the original justice. It doesn't sound cartoony or corny. Just straight up rock and fun. Enjoy!
