SONG OF THE WEEK
MEGADETH - "Symphony of Destruction"
Listing every band I have ever seen, one classic one that shook the house and rocked hard was Megadeth. They are a classic band that is often forgotten so this week is a classic 1992 hit song from their album Countdown to Extinction.

"THE EVIL DEAD" REMAKE..
How they CAN make it better before they ruin it
Check out this news from Aylse Wax:
Knowing that the remake is happening and there is nothing to stop it, understanding that you cannot save the original and realizing that you will see this film for curiosity should give you enough reason to care about what this remake actually is. Hey, I love some remakes, but with this news I know it’s already a disaster
- So here are the
Top 5 ways to make this remake great:
Why is the original 'Evil Dead" so good in the first pace, This one is easy - Because it is a low-budget, independent shitty little film that has "no-body"s in it. Nobody even cared about Betsy Baker ("Linda"), and Hell, if you are ever bored or anything I highly suggest reading a book that tells you that Bruce Campbell ("Ash") was placed in his High school films and worked with Sam Raimi because not only were they friends and Bruce loved to act, but "It gave the girls something to look at".. Are you seriously telling me that you pick up a Horror movie and like to read an synopsis that tells nothing about the film but all its shitty awards, director of some film you don't care about and how well known the actors are? No! you don't care, you just want to know what the film is about and not that it is nominated for awards and entered in an international film contest. That will not make you see it, the best best is word-of mouth, the artwork on the cover and if it sounds good. Get Hollywood's vulture claws out of this one, it will only put things in that believes the "audience" likes, and if we don't like it they will say it was made for 'fun' and hope you 'spend your money on seeing it for curiosity anyway'.
Once you add drugs..the Film doesn't automatically become Funny!
Lets face it, most people have tried drugs, do drugs or sell drugs. Putting in drug references to make the rating higher, to grab a bigger audience and to make some sort of comedy in it is just fucking stupid! You either have a drug comedy, a drug film, a horror comedy, or a horror.. For shits sake, don't use drugs as a form of comedy in a horror film. The whole point of "Evil Dead' is that demonic Spirits are brought back to life and that little cabin in the middle of the woods is that last place you would want to be! Lets not make this into another "Friday the 13th remake" where the films is based around pot smoking G.P.S obsessive teens and we are supposed to feel we can relate or have sympathy or something into these idiots?3. Easy up on Special Effects
If you watch the original "Evil Dead" closely, you can actually see the bad effects, the fake white-out eyelids, the latex harshly plastered on faces and a simple (but effective) dolly shot with a camera. All of this makes pure GOLD. Only Just imagining a chick running away from C.G.I unrealistic coyotes makes me sick, and we are supposed to put up with it, embrace it, and pretend its all real and not a trailer for a video game. I'm not a basher for new films or c.g.i, but this is a horror movie so we all know that blood will not be that classic corn syrup mix and all animals will be computer generated and in Hollywood's hands-you know its a disaster waiting to happen.. kind of like "twilight" fans version of a drug addicted nightmare. 
4. Please...No more 'tough Chicks'
How do we replace an average Hot Guy? Hmm... Get a hot chick wearing boots with shorts and make her...really strong!
I love tough chick films.. LOVE them to pieces. Films like "Coffee", "Thriller" the 90's version of "Night of the living dead", or even "Savage Streets". But this is because they are believable characters. Take a look at that Hollywood disaster film "Charlies Angles", that is not believable I bet a room full of experienced, trained martial artists and men with guns would have raped the shit out of Drew Barrymore and popped a cap in Cameron Diaz's big mouth in the first 10 minutes of the film. Make the characters believable, and then this will be saved. I don't even want to get into the remake of "Hitcher". It's fine to have a hot chick as the lead in the film, but for the love of all mankind.. please just make her believable. I want to relate to the characters, and feel sympathy for their deaths..
5. This is not Asia
Most Asian Horrors evolve around the idea that the main character is in-fact insane, or that its all just a dream. Trust me on this one I have seen hundreds of these, I used to watch Asian films to help me with learning the language. Having a character INSANE and having everyone else not believe her crazy claims is retarded. This isn't even Evil Dead anymore, they just bought the name and have old fans mixed with new ones make plenty of money. That's what is all about right?- making the big bucks.
'The Evil Dead' is real, the people actually get possessed and the Main character has to go through the tough decision to kill the ones he loves. He doesn't wake up find out it's all a dream, he doesn't go through a psychological nightmare or a drug run, and he is not the actual killer in the end and he is defiantly not Mental in the Head!
The Best way around this Film?
1. Easy, They could make an Evil Dead Prequel- What on earth really happened in that cabin before Ash and his crew got there? well, we do see what happened, but non-the less so long as it didn't ruin the original characters it would at least let the new audience of a different generation seek out and explore the other films.
2. Evil Dead 4 should have been made. Years ago when rumors were being spread and Bruce Campbell wasn't on Burn Notice. This could have tied in with Army of Darkness even if it was a piece of crap, at least there would be another evil Dead film with ol' Brucey boy and you could separate fans accordingly.
3. Change the name. Make this film as described but call it something else. Usually films these days love to have one worded titles don't they (saw, cut, triangle..etc.) why not just call it "cabin", or something other than Evil Dead. That was an easy idea to come up with.
4. Watch it and make your own judgement. Hey, this might be a really good film but from the news it won't come close to the original Evil Dead. Instead of having the same debate on "remakes vs. originals" just separate the two films altogether. See it at a cinema and have an open mind.. I mean more open than Madonna legs because you will be in for a ride of your blood-thirsty life.

Coroner is a Swiss thrash metal/progressive metal band from Zurich. They garnered relatively little attention outside of Europe. Formed in 1983, the band broke up in 1996, but decided to reform 14 years later. The band performed at multiple live venues and festivals around the world in 2011, and have said that new material is a possibility. Coroner's music combines elements of thrash, progressive rock, jazz, and industrial metal with suitably gruff vocals. With their increasingly complex style of progressive rock-infused thrash, they are often labeled as "the Rush of thrash metal" by music critics. Coroner's sound then progressed and the production became more refined, resulting in the more progressive No More Color, Mental Vortex and Grin albums.
