SLAYER Is NOT Replacing Tom Araya With Jason Newsted!!!

The main reason why Horns Up Rocks does not fool around on April Fools Day is because it can hurt our reputation as a reliable PROFESSIONAL news source. Also, we don't believe in posting false news in order to score web hits. And come on, it is very disrespectful towards you the fans, to mislead and misinform you.

Earlier this week, another website (that shall remain nameless) "pranked" a lot of Heavy Music fans by reporting that Jason Newsted (ex-METALLICA) was replacing Tom Araya on vocals and bass during SLAYER's upcoming Summer tour. This is false!

In the wise words of Max Cavalera (SOULFLY, CAVALERA CONSPIRACY, ex-SEPULTURA) "Don't, don't believe what you see... Don't, don't believe what you read". Specially if it is not Horns Up Rocks reporting it! \m/

VH1 Classic's THAT METAL SHOW Announces Season 10 - Details Revealed!

As exciting as the last season of VH1 Classic’s That Metal Show, you ain’t seen nothing yet! Eddie Trunk, Don Jamieson and Jim Florentine are back for the tenth season of the show that’s revered by Metalheads and musicians alike, and although the show won’t be back until Saturday, March 31, we just got our hands on a sneak preview of the first batch of confirmed guests and it’s a DOOZY.

Leading the way will be a first time That Metal Show appearance by Adrian Smith of Iron Maiden, which we are totally geeking out in anticipation of. “I’ve known the Maiden guys for a long time and been a fan since day one,” host Eddie Trunk told us. “They are easily one of the most requested bands to have a member of on TMS. Because they are such a global band it’s been hard to track them down, but thrilled we were able to catch up with Adrian. It will be cool because we don’t hear from him often, he’s a great guy, has a huge history with the band, and has a NEW side project to discuss.”

We asked Eddie if there’s any chance that he’d dress up as Iron Maiden’s infamous mascot, Eddie The Head, for the show. His reply? “I do have a mask, so you never know…”

Also on the docket this season will be appearances from Jason Newsted (another TMS newbie!), Metallica‘s Lars Ulrich, Motorhead‘s Lemmy Kilmister and the one and only Alice Cooper. “We’re super psyched about this lineup, as is Eddie Trunk. “I’m so excited about the evolution of the show, having Rock and Metal artists, and first time and returning guests,” he told us. “I love all the variety and am thrilled for a huge 2012!”
