Former Pantera and Down bassist Rex Brown will release his solo debut album next year, he’s revealed. He’ll be heard singing and playing guitar and bass on tracks inspired by his love of 1970s music. And he says the project came about after he began to feel burnt out by life on the road. Brown […]

Make sure lots of blacktooths are flowing today. That’s how Dime would have wanted it! Forever missed. Happy 50th Dime!

Guitarist Christian Brady suggested the 1982 Phil Collins song “I Don’t Care Anymore,” and drummer Vinnie Paul burst out laughing — not because he thought it […]
“It’s taken me a long time to really get in the right headspace to where I feel like it was time to do it. And it wasn’t anything specific; we’ve been offered to do it just about every year since HELLYEAH’s been together. And this year, it just kind of hit me. I said, ‘You […]
