Glass Cloud in Bad Van Crash! -- Mike Patton on Faith No More! -- In Flames Video from San Antonio Texas! -- BTBAM Tommy interview -- New Malmsteen Spellbound track listings and more!

During a new interview with IHeartGuitarBlog.com, FAITH NO MORE singer Mike Patton was asked is there are plans to release live material from the band's reunion tours. "Right now, we have no plans whatsoever — live, recording or anything," he said. "We've done what we set out to do with the reunion, and it's all great, but it's just, 'Let's see what happens next.' And I think you need to take a pause to actually reflect on something like that, because otherwise we could just keep playing, and we're very conscious of overdoing it, y'know, milking material that's so old. You can only do that for so long, and I feel that we've done pretty well. The whole band's naturally came to this conclusion, so now we're just sitting tight."

Stormbringer.at conducted an interview with vocalist Tommy Rogers of BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME before the band's October 24 concert in Vienna, Austria. Check it out here:

On October 31, Resident Rock Star conducted an interview with drummer John Boecklin of DEVILDRIVER.
Asked about the musical direction of DEVILDRIVER's next album, which should be out in September 2013, Boecklin said, "It's a step in a different direction from our last record [2011's 'Beast'], where a huge emphasis on it is based around groove. We didn't try to just do some aggressive, over-the-top, fast album, like we did on the last one. We tried to link it to a technical, slower album — not like 'doom' slow or anything... But the album is definitely something like you can nod your head to.
