RIP, Adam “MCA” Yauch of the Beastie Boys.
“Foot on the pedal―never ever false metal!” \m/
Did you know the Beastie Boys actually originated as a hardcore punk band in the New York hardcore scene and were on a compilation called “New York Thrash?” Back when they got their start, they shared the stage with awesome bands like the Misfits, Black Flag, and so many other legends from punk and hardcore. No one did hip-hop as cool as they did, and they did it with lots of badass guitar riffs. \m/
All amps to 10: A moment of deafening Marshall crankage in memory of Jim Marshall.
Jim Marshall, founder of legendary Marshall Amplification, has passed away. Who knows where rock and metal would be today without his work… To the Father of Loud, Jim Marshall: Thank you for everything. Rest in peace.

If rock and/or metal are a big part of your life, reblog this forever.
RIP Jim Marshall.
Not only is the game absolutely BADASS, but it was made by metalheads. If you love shooters and metal, buy this game.
First one had a couple songs in it by a some sick metal and hard rock bands from Sweden I’d never heard of before: The Duskfall - “Shoot It In” and Sparzanza - “Going Down.” Check them out!

Love. This is getting harder,
And I can’t seem to pick you out of the crowd.
But you, my dear, have been discoverd a liar.
And I’m afraid that this is building up for far too long.
And this is not the time and place for us to speak like this.
If I had the thought, I’d never dream of it.
So dry your hollow eyes and let’s go down to the water.
In a different time and place the words could make more sense.
In a perfect world, the future wouldn’t make a dent.
So dry your hollow eyes and let’s go down to the water,
Even though it’s the last time.
Love. This is getting the best of me.
And truth be told, you were the start of it all.
Now you, my dear, might end up lonely.
Before you go, there’s something you should know.
And this is not the time and place for us to speak like this.
If I had the thought, I’d never dream of it.
So dry your hollow eyes and let’s go down to the water.
In a different time and place the words could make more sense.
In a perfect world, the future wouldn’t make a dent.
So dry your hollow eyes and let’s go down to the water,
Even though it’s the last time.
And this is not the time and place for us to speak like this.
If I had the thought, I’d never dream of it.
So dry your hollow eyes and let’s go down to the water.
In a different time and place the words could make more sense.
In a perfect world, the future wouldn’t make a dent.
So dry your hollow eyes and let’s go down to the water,
Even though it’s the last time.
Please let’s not speak.
Don’t breathe a word,
Even though it’s the last time.
How perfect this was for July, 2011.
