Lady GaGa managed to bag all the awards given to international artists at the Brits. That is, except for the Best International Male, which went to Jay-Z. But, had she had some peen, she would have probably gotten that sexist award. Anyway, she deserved every bit and looked like a glamazon receiving them.

If you are looking for the drunken one , this is not it. This was her acceptance for the People's Choice Awards show for the category of Best R&B Artist. She seems to be wearing the same old dress she wore for the Oscars that year "When You Believe" was nominated for an award. It's really not our cup of tea, but Mariah's a diva who can "sang," and she puts it so we are not expecting her to look like a supermodel of the world.

I really had to post this because 1. this went down in my home state of connecticut; and 2. What exactly are the odds of 4 siblings all making it into one the of the most respected and selective Ivy league schools in the country? Very slim. Kenny, Martina, Ray and Carol Crouch's perfect batting average represents a first for Yale — the first time in anyone's memory that it has offered admission to quadruplets. This whole situation is so Hip-Hop to me in the sense that these kids beat [...]

Wolf photo by Mark Coatsworth Text by Cosmo Lee Traditional metal has long been a staple of my workouts. The beats are simple, the riffs are strong, and the melodies cut through surrounding noise. It's only a matter of time before I do a proper Manowar workout. Here are three of my current workout favorites. Wolf - Whisky Psycho Hellions 2006's The Black Flame bored me , so I took my [...]
Did you know that if you eat before you start slamming shots, you'll get a little less drunk, but you'll also have something to vomit up later? It's true. Also, sometimes when you smoke weed, you get the munchies. These are just two great reasons why you should care about Hellbent for Cooking: The Heavy [...]
As much as I still can't accept the fact that someone other than Udo will be singing for Accept when they do their reunion tour, I will always be able to accept that Accept kick serious amounts of ass. So much ass that their photo is our Twitter icon (follow us!). So much ass that [...]
The fine folks at the unfuckwithable Deciblog have published a list of the Top 10 Manliest Metal Album Covers of all time, and the results are extremely manly indeed. I was thrilled at the inclusion of Accept's super-studly Balls to the Wall, and not one but two Manowar covers. My only suggestion would have been [...]
Over the weekend I had a lengthy conversation with one of my music buddies about a broad range of topics. One of the things we discussed was, of course, our favorite bands of all-time. Unfortunately for me, 2 of my top 5 favorites have broken up and are no longer making music. One of these bands is Acceptance.Acceptance released their first album in 2000 and were around long enough to make a
Holy shitballs. Former Anthrax guitarist and current Christian midget watchmaker Dan Spitz has started a new project, DeuxMonkey, and it's so objectively stupid that I'm amazed it's not directed by Michael Bay. First of all, there's the name of the band. Technically, "DeuxMonkey" means "two monkeys," except that a) "monkey" isn't pluralized for some reason and [...]

After relentlessly touring KC multiple times over the past year, Bethany finally caught up with Alt rockers Anberlin . Guitarist Christian McAlhaney , formerly of Acceptance , filled PopWreckoning in on life on the road and at a major label. Bethany, PopWreckoning: You guys are one of the most popular alternative bands now, but it wasn't always that way. What were some of the challenges of breaking into mainstream? Christian McAlhaney , Anberlin: It is endless. Anberlin has been a band…some of these [...]
Bravewords.com tells me that Germans balls-to-the-wallers Accept are going to reunite and tour with Mark Tornillo of TT Quick on vocals. No offense to Mr. Tornillo, I mean, I'm sure he's a nice dude and a pretty good singer and all of that. But how can some schmuck from New Jersey replace fucking UDO??? Blasphemy! [...]
Accept were a German heavy metal band from the town of Solingen, originally assembled in the early 1970s by Udo Dirkschneider. They played an important role in the development of speed metal [1] and Teutonic thrash metal, being part of the German heavy/speed/power metal scene to emerge in the early to mid 1980s along with bands such as Helloween, Running Wild, Grave Digger, Sinner, and Rage. 1.

Revolver has their annual "Hottest Chicks in Metal" issue, which is great if you're Revolver and want to sell an assload of copies to horny teens and unhappily married men you want to oggle at semi-hot babes that you'll never have. But for those just looking for a little shot in the arm of self-esteem, [...]

It's time again for our weekly top songs: the six-pack that features two songs from each of us that have been in heavy rotation for the last couple weeks. Normally it would only be songs that have been in heavy rotation over the last week, but we've gotten a little lazy on the Six Packs lately; please accept our sincerest apologies. Without further ado, here goes Stu! (he's rhyming too!) Acceptance - In Too Far These guys were sooo good. It would have been really interesting to [...]

So I was listening to Accept's landmark Balls to the Wall last night, and I decided to head on over to YouTube to enjoy the video fruits of the five leather-clad German men. Which is when I was reminded of the question I've always had about Accept... what the fuck is that singer doing in the band?? He looks nothing like the rest of them. It's almost like their real singer was absent the day of the video shoot and the grip on the set was the best replacement they could come up with. Seriously. What UP with [...]

The original release of Rhino's Heavy Metal Box last month slipped under my radar. I wasn't aware of it until my jaw hit the counter this weekend at the local record store. I was pretty impressed with the Marshall head packaging of the box set...and you bet your ass that volume control goes up to 11!! The set is arranged chronologically from '68 to '91. While I question their choice of the songs and ommission of several bands I hold near and dear, this [...]
