Popdose (Free subscription) | 08/31/2009

Everything you’re about to read is apocryphal. No proof exists that anything that follows is true. But I heard it from someone, who heard it from someone, who likely heard it from yet another someone, who should know. Here goes: When then-Alice Cooper bassist Kip Winger met model Rachel Hunter in the late ’80s, at a [...]

Modern Rifles: I Was Young, It Was Dark

Sound As Language (Free subscription) | 08/05/2009

Modern Rifles play the type of post-hardcore that I would have absolutely loved about ten years ago. That’s not to say I don’t enjoy I Was Young, It Was Dark now though. But I do think I would have appreciated this a lot more before the genre got so saturated after At The Drive-In blew [...]

Duffonomics Rocks

Chicagoist (Free subscription) | 02/06/2009

As you might have noticed, the 1980s hard rock scene produced very few great scholars. There is no Kip Winger, Ph.D., or Mark Slaughter, M.Ed. Vince Neil implored us to call Dr. Feelgood, but never himself M.D.'ed. (Nikki Sixx OD 'ed, though.) Blackie Lawless is not an Esq. However! Duff McKagan is an exception. After a pancreas explosion incident in 1994 caused him to drop drugs and his gallon-a-day...
