Weekend Wildcard - Silvery Sometimes (Ghosts)

Brand new Smashing Pumpkins for this Weekend's Wildcard. Silvery Sometimes (Ghosts) sounds like it was recorded during the Mellon Collie years. If you like 1979 you'll like this one for sure. Really excited about what they'll do now that most of the gang is back together.

Scott's Metal Track of the Day - No Shelter by Rage Against The Machine

There be no shelter here
The frontline is everywhere

Today's Metal Track is No Shelter by Rage Against The Machine. This was recorded for the 1998 film Godzilla. The overlying theme of the song is about how the mass media manipulates people and distracts them from the real important issues that are going on. It's funny that Nike is called out in the lyrics and here we are 20 years later with Nike at the forefront of social commentary.

Scott's Metal Track of the Day - Nightmare by Avenged Sevenfold

Today's Metal Track is Nightmare by Avenged Sevenfold. This is the opening and title travmck off of their 2010 album by the same name. There are many homages paid to The Rev in the video. He was their drummer who wrote most of the drums for the album but died before recording. His drum kit is seen in the video and the video itself is based off of Jacob's Ladder, his favorite movie.

RIP Rev.
