How could I forget about the new Monster Magnet? Of course I'm looking forward to that too. As far as Billy Talent, Grinchy I think you and me are the only ones here who care about that one, buddy.

Yeah, Brown Bomber, I really like The Novaks' album. I first heard them on Little Steven's Underground Garage. He has been playing them weekly since at least September. I take it Little Steven is a big fan. I saw them open for Matt Mays & El Torpedo and they had a good set. They are tight and have a good sound, but their stage presence leaves something to be desired. I hope they work on their live shows. They sound great, but they are lacking something that makes them less than exciting to see live. I really enjoy their record, though. It is good stuff.

I too heard them on Little Steven's Underground Garage, he featured them for weeks! I agree with you on their stage presence, it is a little bit lacking so its a good thing they play good music. They seem a bit subdued on stage, but when I saw them live I found that it kind of sucked me in. They seemed so into the music that I felt I should be too. When I saw them open for MM, the singer broke into a wicked slide guitar version of Amazing Grace that was just killer.

Yeah, last week I heard about a new Slayer offering in 2006, but I heard it would be summer or fall.

You know how I love Blabbermouth: SLAYER's KERRY KING: 'We're Not Close To Hanging It Up' - Jan. 15, 2006 SLAYER guitarist Kerry King recently spoke to Decibel magazine (web site) about the progress of the songwriting sessions for the band's much-anticipated follow-up to 2001's "God Hates Us All", tentatively due late summer/early fall via American Recordings.
According to King, the upcoming CD doesn't have a working title just yet ("every time you give one of those out, it always changes anyway," he explained), and it contains no overriding lyrical theme a la the war stories of "Diabolus In Musica" or "Divine Intervention"'s explorations of madness.
"I think the idea is to get eleven [songs] on there," King offered. "We have the music for ten and I have lyrics for four of those, so we're in the home stretch."
King is hoping to enter the studio shortly and promises a quick recording process.
"We've been playing together for so long now, we can just nail it and get it out there so we can go out and tour again."
The upcoming CD will be the group's first studio recording since drummer Dave Lombardo rejoined the band back in December 2001. While King claims Lombardo hasn't directly influenced the songwriting, "it definitely changes the complexion of the final product. I think if anybody's gonan fit the band best it's gonna be Dave, because he was there when we started."
"I think it'll be an extension of 'God Hates Us All', but with Dave's unique style," King told Revolver magazine for its February 2006 issue. "Dave's such a natural. He's a loose cannon, but in a good way. He'll go off and play something crazy, and we'll be like, 'Holy shit, remember that!'"
Although King was previously quoted as saying that he wants Dave Sardy to produce SLAYER's next album, there is currently talk about about a possible collaboration with "Reign in Blood" producer Rick Rubin on the upcoming CD. "I don't know if he's heard what we've been doing lately, so we'll probably have to go do a demo in Dave's garage again, like the old days, get it to Rubin and see what he thinks," King told Decibel.
While most of the album's lyrics have yet to be penned, the final product is sure to be as scathing, misanthropic and controversial as anything SLAYER have written. One of guitarist Jeff Hanneman's songs may even address the attacks of 9/11 from the terrorists' perspective. "We're SLAYER, dude," King told Revolver. "We have to be dangerous."
Although SLAYER are obviously in no danger of being forgotten, King promises that the classic lineup "isn't a reunion 'cash-in-and-go-away' thing. We're not close to hanging it up; we've still got a lot left," he told Decibel.

Yes and I hope they will tour after the release, because I'd really like to see them again live.
