Vinnie Apicella at Electricbasement.com spoke with WASP’s Blackie Lawless, who says that the tour for the new record, Dying for the World, will be brief, in order to make time for another he is working on: "We're going to tour this record, and I'm not trying to downplay it, but I know we're not going to be out for very long. We're gonna be out maybe seven to eight weeks and that's it because we're going to be working on another record that's a concept like The Crimson Idol. So that's really where my head's at right now. I wanna go back and finish that. It's going to be a double record set probably."

Screaming Ferret Wreckords is preparing the live Nuclear Assault disc, for release this fall, that was recorded from one of the band’s 2002 reunion shows, as well as a Meliah Rage compilation disc that will feature rare and unreleased material, featuring vocalist Sully Erna (Godsmack) on drums.

More dates will be announced in the coming weeks.

Yngwie Malmsteen keyboardist Derek Sherinian (ex- Dream Theater) will be touring with Billy Idol, replacing Joe Simon, for the upcoming Kiss the Skull summer tour.

Gene Simmons (Kiss) conducted an interview with drummer Peter Criss at a New York City hotel room last week for the second issue of Gene Simmons Tongue magazine, due on the stands in early September.

Blabbermouth.net reports that Sepultura are tentatively set to enter the studios in Brazil during August to record a mini-CD consisting of five or six cover songs, to be released later in the year through an as-yet-undetermined label. At the moment, the plan is for the EP to be issued in Brazil only, although a possibility exists that it will be released in other parts of the world, "depending on how [the CD] turns out," according to drummer Igor Cavalera.

Among the songs currently being considered for inclusion on the upcoming EP are the following:

01. Hellhammer - "Messiah"

Shortly thereafter, the band will make the trek to Brazil for six shows before heading back to Europe to play festivals and shows through Europe, leading them into their highly-anticipated appearance at this year's ProgPower Fest on November 15th.

Pressure 4-5 have parted with their drummer Tom Schmidt. This is the second departure for the band in the past couple of weeks. Bassist Lyle McKeany recently left, thus the remaining members are currently holding auditions while working on new material for their next release. Contrary to the rumors, the band states that they have no plans of breaking up, with replacements for drum and bass to be announced shortly.

Powerman 5000 are expected to enter the studio in August to begin work on their long-delayed new album. As you may recall, the album was "complete" last summer with a late August release date set, but the band decided to make the bold move of going back into the studio to record new material at the last moment, effectively shelving the ready-to-be-released album. An early 2003 release through Dreamworks is being anticipated for these new recordings.

Nothingface guitarist Tom Maxwell denies “Internet rumors” that Here Comes The Butchers will be the title of their forthcoming album, due to be recorded in September, and released in early 2003 through TVT. Says Maxwell, “'Butchers' is just a song title.”
