Music Media: Megadeth, AC/DC, Pop Evil, Mushroomhead, The Human Abstract, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Korn, Within Temptation, and Trivium

Part of: Music Media

The journey into music videos (and other bits) continues its mission to deliver you something worthy of your time, perhaps introducing you to something new along the way.

This week I continue compiling videos and various musical related tidbits for your viewing pleasure. Some will be brand spanking new, while others will just be things I like. I am not great with timeliness, but I hope you've been enjoying these video collections.

Megadeth - Set the World Afire

Dave Mustaine and the mighty Megadeth are prepping for the release of a new compilation to be released at the end of the month. This comes hot on the heels of the War Chest set. I have to question if we really need another compilation, but I guess I need not complain, not everyone needs to get it, unless they are compulsive completists or are youngsters looking to discover the greatest of these metal heavyweights. The collection does look pretty good as it covers the band's entire career.

AC/DC - "Rock and Roll Train"

AC/DC has a new album coming out next month (October 20th to be exact), called Black Ice. It will be sold exclusively through Walmart (Ugh). Anyway, they have a new video out for the lead single, and by definition it rocks. Although, I have to question if this was any other band if it would get this sort of attention. AC/DC has not changed at all since their inception, fine tuning their considerable rock and roll skills for decades, but, while I like it, it does seem like more of the same.
