Ozzy: I Was Molested


The Prince of Darkness is opening up about his dark past. In a candid interview appearing Monday in London’s Daily Mirror, Ozzy Osbourne revealed that he was molested as an 11-year-old schoolboy while growing up in the working-class city of Birmingham, England. “I was sexually abused when I was a kid,” the heavy-metal icon told the Mirror. “Two boys used to wait for me to come after school. Then they would f-k around with me. They didn’t f-k me, but they messed around with me. “They would force me to drop my pants and all that s-t. They felt me… Read more »

When I… Read more »

In their 13 years together, the members of P.O.D. have never denied their faith. And frontman Sonny Sandoval says the group never will. “It’s going to come out, whether I build houses or collect garbage,” he says.

The Cougars Pounces "Nice Nice"


The Cougars have released their latest album “Nice Nice!”. Although a different sound for Go Kart Records, The Cougars’ music and live show blew them away so much that the label was determined to work with them. “If you like Rocket From The Crypt, but want something a bit harder, “Nice Nice,” will surely be your new favorite CD”.

Even in these harrowing times dominated by nu metal, vapid… Read more »
