Shame-free recently interviewed one of the bands below that can currently be seen on Projekt Revolution. Who do YOU think it is? If you already know, then you can't play.

In case you missed it.
Here it be:

What’s the most rock-star thing you’ve ever done?
That’s really hard to come up with. I haven’t done anything rock star. I walked into a club in Canada with sunglasses on. I thought it would be cool. It was a total dick move.
What was your favorite album at age fourteen?
Live After Death by Iron Maiden. Easily. I listened to that thing for five years straight. That’s one of the things that really made me want to be a live performer.
How do you like to spend downtime on tour?
I write my comic book, which is amazingly fun. And I want to do serious paintings of Joan of Arc and squids. Joan of Arc is my favorite historical-legendary-whatever figure. Number one, it’s a boyish, waifish girl in a suit of armor on a white horse, and that’s badass. I’ve always been attracted to that character because it was somebody who was willing to die for what they believed in, and they were probably fucking crazy and like, touched by the hand of God, and I believe in that shit. I totally believe in that stuff. I believe that it can happen to anybody. Like when we started this band, there was a brief amount of time where it felt like you drank gasoline and shit glass, and you were always covered in your own sweat, somebody else’s spit or blood or something. And I felt that, you know what I mean? I would make crazy speeches that made no sense onstage. I would talk about purifying flames being shot out of our cabinets at max volume to destroy evil and shit like that. I was, you know, touched in the head. And really, when you get touched in the head like that, I think your job at that point for the rest of your career is to remember what it was like to be touched in the head, and kind of keep that going. ‘Cause that can’t last forever, you’ll be dead, I think. Like Joan of Arc. So, yeah, I love Joan of Arc. And squids. Honestly, the shapes, the disgustingness of them, the suckers, the fact that they’re in the ocean. I’m a huge Hellboy fan so I draw lots of squids.
Who’s the coolest famous person you’ve ever met?Johnny Marr. It was in Norway at a festival. He was amazing. He came up to get something signed for his daughter, and I basically nerded out on him. We talked a lot about Portland, OR, because he’s living there and I’m thinking of living there.
Name three records on your current playlist.
1) LostAlone, Say No to the World. They’re a really young, three-piece band from Nottingham. It’s a perfect record. There aren’t a lot of those. It’s a rock band but it’s really new-sounding. It’s fresh. It makes me feel angsty again and I haven’t heard anything that makes me feel that way in a long time.
2) David Bowie, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars. I listen to that all the time, but lately I’ve been listening to it front to back. It’s my desert-island album.
3) Mew, Frengers. It’s the album before the new one, and it’s great. They’re one of my favorite new bands ever.
When do you think you’ll know it’s time to retire?
When inside it doesn’t feel special anymore. Or if I can’t keep a personal sense of ownership anymore. If we can’t keep a sense it’s ours anymore, we’ll walk away.

and here is some new footage from HIM's set at PR in Michigan:
Nine Inch Nails vs Smashing Pumpkins vs Sluts
Trent Reznor has taken issue with what he's sees as a corporate approach to the new Smashing Pumpkins. Firstly, he called British girls sluts too - or whatever nationality that girl with no clothes on was. Secondly, what the f*ck is he talking about? What does that even mean, the "isn't it great to be alternative" stuff? It doesn't even make any sense. He's been hanging out with Courtney Love too much.

I'm really trying to get into this album guys. I like the first single but I just don't get the direction they're going in. I know everything won't sound like GLS666 or RR, but seriously, I'm digging deep to like this "Bleed Well" song. I own every HIM album, all the HIM shit, blah, blah, blah, but if this album produces 5 great songs and 5 unlistenable ones like Dark Light did I'm going to be sorely disappointed.
Some Alice in Chains live performances - they're killer.

How old are you again?
Whether temporarily or permanently the fact that Van Halen have erased or did erase Michael Anthony from their album covers listed on their site to replace him with Wolfgang, Eddie's son is quite possibly the most juvenile thing I have ever heard.

Interview with Avenged Sevenfold from Singapore (yay Singapore!) The questions are pretty cheezy but it's a good interview. Best line is when Matt says, "when I was a young kid I had a stupid opinion too." hahahaha I know some of you hate them/him but I love them all, so there!

Got the itch to start some sh*t
They were apparently embarrassed to have their picture taken with a KY intimacy kit. Yeah, I'm embarrassed just hearing about it, thanks. Ew.
A few days later I read she was jealous of other girls and acting all high-school and shit when people wanted a picture with him. What's with the facial expressions?

Then I see some silliness with Pete's modeling pics - here. Really? A model?
Finally, Vanity Fair has succumb to the silliness of the tabloids by putting Pete along with other, hmm...morally questionable characters in an article about boys who date starlets.
From left to right that would be Kevin Federline, Pete Wentz, Steve Aoki, Benji Madden, Cisco Adler and Joel Madden. God, they're all so amazing, especially that Kevin with the wife beater and shaved head - he looks like an extra from American History X.
As a side note (and one more pot to stir) I was recently stalking Jonny Radtke of Kill Hannah's MySpace profile and was lead to his girlfriend/wife. She's pretty, she's a model and she's also been hanging out with Cisco Adler (pictured above and also below). Why the F*CK is she hanging out with Cisco Adler? In case you're unfamiliar with him - get very familiar with him here <----fair warning: NSFW and really gross.

Hanging out with the likes of someone who is best know for that picture I told you was gross can't possibly lead to anything good.
A7X new song, "Almost Easy" live & new Fightstar
I think Fightstar is a really underrated band. They're not revolutionary or particularly technically talented but they're good at what they're doing - much better than most other bands in this category - maybe the same could be said for me and this page, hahaha. Check out their new video, "We Apologize for Nothing."

She's crunk as a skunk
Finally, Amy Winehouse has been put on extended rest after suffering from exhaustion, and by exhaustion they mean a 2 year hangover. I keed, I keed, I jok-a wit you. Ok, not really, the chicks a drunk but I love her ass.Somebody give her a cheeseburger - stat. ---->
She is also scheduled to appear in an episode of the Simpsons. Maybe she'll be Barney's girlfriend and they could change the lyrics to the Plow King song to add in screwed up relationships, and cancelling shows - I think they covered the booze part pretty well.
"When the snow starts a-fallin'
There's a man you should be callin'
That's KL5-4796,Let it ring!
Mr. Plow is a loser,
And I think he is a boozer,
So you better make that call to the Plow King!"
You don't want no drama, drama.
Courtney Love and Lily Allen have kissed and made up after someone apparently broke into Lily's MySpace and left this in a blog:according to Yahoo, "I am not bfs (best friends) w/ (with) C (Courtney) Love, one night with her made me realise why Kurt (Cobain) killed himself."
I won't play detective here, but I know for a fact Lily has an incorrect habit of putting spaces after all of her commas and clearly whoever wrote this did not. - NEXT!
Courtney responded with a message on her own MySpace blog that Yahoo was kind enough to decipher - the original was completely illegible.
"I wouldn't pick on me if I was Miss Lily, as it wouldn't take TOO much to swat, but we've known each other far too long, like each other far too much and if she was gonna say something nasty she has the acerbic wit and intelligence to say something cutting, that would actually really hurt, not some cliched hoary old chestnut some obsessed blogger would say.
Oh girls - I'm glad we could all be friends.
Lordi's frontman is being attacked by Oderus of Gwar and not by the giant be-toothed vagina that usually attacks people at their shows. After finding out Lordi had cancelled their appearance at "Rue Morgue Horror Con" Oderus stated, "I am very saddened that this Finnish fuck lacks the balls to show up and meet the true master of this Earth, ME! I was planning on giving him his head back!"
Part of me wants to think he's kidding - most of me thinks he's not.
