More Metallica Guitar Hero
antiMusic reports: Metallica had big news for Guitar Hero fans this week. Here is what they had to say: "If you've been playing Guitar Hero on the Wii, you may have noticed that we were short a few songs when it came to 'Death Magnetic' - well no more!

Our friends at Guitar Hero have been working long and hard with Nintendo so that Wii fans can now play the eight 'Death Magnetic' songs not previously available for that gaming system.

Starting November 24, additional tracks from 'Death Magnetic' will be available as downloadable singles for 200 Wii points each. If you're keeping score, that would be 'All Nightmare Long', 'That Was Just Your Life', 'The Day That Never Comes', 'The Judas Kiss', 'The End Of The Line', 'The Unforgiven III', 'Suicide & Redemption J.H.' and 'Suicide & Redemption K.H.' Enjoy!

In other news that band provided a massive recap of their Rock Hall concert performance with photos etc. Check it out - here

PR reports: On November 2 at 11pm ET, Fuse, Madison Square Garden's national music television network, will televise the worldwide premiere of Nirvana Live at Reading, the band's legendary, never-before-released 1992 Reading concert.

Joe Elliott's Down'N'Outz Recording An Album
antiMusic reports: Did you miss Def Leppard frontman Joe Elliott's Down'N'Outz one off gig at the Hammersmith Apollo? Have no fear, the one-off nature of the project has changed according to this update from the Def Lep site:

Classic Rock can exclusively reveal that Joe Elliott's Down'N'Outz are in the process of recording a studio album. The Down'N'Outz are the supposedly 'one night only' group comprising Leppard frontman Elliott on vocals, rhythm guitar and piano, plus assorted members of The Quireboys - guitarists Paul Guerin and Guy Griffin, keyboard player Keith Weir and drummer Phil Martini - and completed by bassist Ronnie Garrity (a member of the band Raw Glory which features former Gillan drummer Mick Underwood and ex-Heavy Metal Kids guitarist Cosmo).

The Down'N'Outz got together to open for Mott The Hoople on the final night of the reunited band's recent string of dates at London's Hammersmith Apollo, ostensibly to perform material the members of Mott The Hoople had been involved with after splitting in 1974. This treat included material from the back catalogue of Ian Hunter, the band Mott and British Lions. - more on this story

Smile Empty Soul, Anthrax, Fuel, White Zombie, The Cult, and Candiria Stars Rock New Leiana Album
Kerosene reports: Leiana, one of the freshest and most articulate artists to emerge in the alt-rock scene in quite some time, has signed with FOF Label Group for the release of her upcoming new album "Lucky #3", which is slated to hit stores on January 26th, 2010.

Leiana's Lucky #3 is an action packed rock/metal/punk extravaganza that features an all star line-up of musicians, which include Sean Danielson form Smile Empty Soul, Rob Caggiano of Anthrax, Brett Scallion of Fuel, John Tempesta of White Zombie and The Cult, and Ken Schalk of Candiria.

The Philadelphia-based band is spearheaded by writer and singer, Leiana, who provides the soundtrack for people who love for nothing more than to surf, skate and have their fill of great live music. Leiana utilizes the same "do it yourself" work ethic that was the foundation for early punk-rock movement.

Anthrax Talks Reunion
HeadbangerNYC.com reports: Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante has told HeadbangerNYC.com that the band is "in the process of regrouping with" singer John Bush following the departure of Dan Nelson in late July.

"We played two shows with [John] [Sonisphere festival in the U.K. in early August and Loud Park festival in Japan earlier this month], and we are looking forward to proceeding with this lineup."

Regarding why the band doesn't try to reunite with Joey Belladonna, the singer during Anthrax's heyday and part of the band's most commercially successful lineup, Benante said, "It's a difficult thing to talk about."

Jason Ellis & Benji Madden's Taintstick Debut
PR reports: Taintstick, featuring Sirius XM Radio host Jason Ellis and Good Charlotte's Benji Madden, have debuted the song "Moto Dick" online at Myspace. The band recently made their live debut with a sold-out show at Wasted Space in Las Vegas, NV, where the band was joined on stage by Ozzy Osbourne bassist Blasko for a cover of "Crazy Train".

"Shoutout to everyone who came to Ellismania and Taintstick this weekend," said Ellis in a statement. "Mad love to all the fans that came out, I really love you all. Thanks to Blasko for coming on stage and playing "Crazy Train" with us, that was one of the craziest things ever! We are releasing the 'Monkeys of War' video when I get back from Australia and then shooting another video. Watch out for all that shit. Boom!"

Quite possibly the best thing to hit rock n' roll since the Beatles, Taintstick is a once-in-a-generation explosion of heavy metal ecstasy. The band arouses the once-proud demons of rock and roll from their long and shameful slumber with their debut album, "6lbs of Sound". Fronted by none other than pro skateboarder/MMA fighter Jason Ellis, alongside drummer/studio mastermind Shoebox, Cowfucker on guitar, and Good Charlotte's Benji Madden handling the bass, Taintstick are a powerful musical wrecking crew.

Armor For Sleep Split
antiMusic reports: Armor For Sleep is no more according to Ben's blog post on the band's Myspace page: so long, and thanks for all the fish! D.Neeht, it's been a little over a year since our last tour and some of you out there have kind of figured out whats been going on with us. we never wanted to burden you all with a formal announcement of any kind and cause some type of commotion- we just thought it would be better to kind of drift away nice and easy…

i am writing this strictly speaking for myself and i honestly don't really know how pj anthony and nash will react to me being the one to write this, but i feel like it should come from me because ultimately it was me who decided it was best to leave things where they were. to me a song is like a snapshot of a moment, real or made-up, and the band that takes that snapshot is like a camera. i was really happy and proud of the pictures that came out of our little camera, but i would have much rather put in on a shelf for me and all of us to look at with fond memories than to feel this intense need to make it take high-def panoramic mosaics when maybe it was constructed to handle polaroid film. it's as simple as that.

i guess someone could examine our inter-personal relationships and weird habits and attribute them to the reason for this decision, but we were like brothers and no clash was ever too great to slow us down. i hope that time won't obscure that fact…i know it won't for me. that being said, i think the real and only reason i am writing this is for you who have been fans of armor for sleep. even though it hasn't been a secret that we are not working on an album or touring, it has felt really weird to not come out and say that the needles been lifted from the record.
