Nine Inch Nails is back. Their new album Hesitation Marks will be released on September 3rd of this year and their single “Came Back Haunted” has been released accompanied by a music video done by David Lynch.  

It is the moment fans have been waiting for. Upon finishing this game we have all been rendered useless waiting and praying for announcements of the DLC’s so we can get more of Booker and Elizabeth in our lives. Well, fear no more friends Irrational Games has confirmed to IGN that new BioShock Infinite downloadable content will be revealed in late July.  

There has been a lot of talk about The Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver controversy amongst fans recently. Last month it was revealed that Bryan Singer and Joss Wheadon will both be featuring the brother/ sister duo in Days of Future Past as well as Avengers 2. Both 20th Century Fox and Marvel own and are allowed to feature the characters in their films, however will working against each other with separate concepts be destructive to both creative ideas?  

This week at the Ripley’s Believe It Or Not Museum, Mez-itz (A brand off of Mezco Toys) released their new brand of Batman themed toys. Oh and what a sight it was. On top of the usual bright eyed and bushy tailed tourist filtering in to see what was going on there were many individuals wielding Batman costumes and even a 70’s bat mobile parked inside. On top of working the event Metal Machine was lucky enough to wander the halls of the building to be shocked and awed by it’s exhibits.  

Vin Diesel has put some very interesting critic information up on his twitter. This news comes in the form of a special requested meeting with Marvel Studios.  

Sony Pictures has released information that they will be making a live action Captain Planet film! This film will be developed by producers Mark Gordon, Don Murphy and Susan Montford.  

There is so much more destruction involved in this film than appears merely on screen. Amidst the drama in budgeting, rewrites of the script, and complete reshoot of the ending it was shocking to actually see this film finally make it to theaters. One would think with a multi-million hit selling book series and a producing/starring combination of Brad Pitt that this film would have ample backing to be an instant hit. Well friends, think again.  

Following their recent performance at the Fifth Annual Scion Fest in Memphis, CORROSION OF CONFORMITY has announced live assaults for August. In addition to their already planned participation at Gwar’s annual BBQ, the trio will perform a headlining show in Wilmington, Delaware before heading to South America for a string of dates. The August shows mark a break from continued work in the recording studio on the band’s new album, expected for release in early 2014. “We need a little escape from the studio,” comments vocalist/bassist Mike Dean. “We thought it would be good to see the light of the day a little bit. We are excited to play Brazil, Peru, Columbia, and Argentina for the first time ever. Of course... 

This game looks so awesome. There hasn’t been a great Ninja Turtles game in years. Marketing is pretty decent considering they are releasing game play for all of the characters separately. They actually look like mutants for once as well from concept art. Oh, the ingenuity of gaming. Look out for this game this summer.  

There has been rumors of Marvel’s long awaited side project of a live action Doctor Strange film coming to fruition. The company has long spoken of the film potentially being done and it’s seeming like as phase 3 in their films approaches that it may actually be true.  

D.O.A., the Hardcore Punk Kings are gearing up for a farewell tour of the America’s midwest and east coast this September. As well they will tour Europe and the U.K. this October. Canada’s punk godfather Joe Keithley will lead his talented henchmen: Dirty Dan Sedan (bass) and JJ Heath (drums) on a punk rock rampage to forty, soon to be shaken to the core, cities this fall. The Men of Action will employ their over the top, no holds barred, deafening combo of riffs, politics and humor to a wide collection of older D.O.A. classics, as well they will jolt you with some more recent nuggets as well. This farewell tour also serves as promotion for the latest studio album We Come in Peace and the upcoming... 

Volbeat returns to North America on August 23rd to headline the third installment of the Monster Energy Rock Allegiance Tour.  Since the band returned to Europe as a festival headliner for the late-Spring and Summer, their growth has shown no signs of slowing down.
