Easily one of our most anticipated releases for about 2 years now, FOZZY return with their 8th full-length this May and it is well worth the wait after the unexpected banger-maker that Judas turned out to be. In fact, you know what? I’m just going to come out and say it: BOOMBOX is the absolute BEST FOZZY record to date! Yep, better than Judas! Are you intrigued yet???

You may not know the name (yet) but if you’re a fan of wrestling’s hottest promotion right now, then chances are you already know the sounds of AEW’s Music Production Coordinator.

I don’t like KISS, okay? They just never did it for me for some reason. Much like choosing Megadeth over Metallica and Priest over Maiden, my general “meh” towards all things KISS will not win me any fans/new followers. HOWEVER! I’m a recent convert to the ways of the Fozzy and enjoy the hell out of Chris Jericho in the squared circle so, for me, hearing a cover of a song that I’ve never heard in the first place with Le Champion on vocals is pretty friggin’ groovy.
