13 Stupid Questions with Riot Inside

By CEON FOOSHEYS Chicago rockers Riot Inside will release their second EP title 404 on Oct. 9, a six-song collection of energetic rhythm and bottom heavy swagger.

Warrant Singer Jani Lane Dead at 47 – An R.I.P. Retrospective

Jani Lane – R.I.P. The writers of RUFKM have always found Jani Lane to be an underrated singer/songwriter that simply wrote some great songs during and after Warrant’s heyday. Unfortunately for most he is known as the “Cherry Pie Guy” but wrote melodies and lyrics that were superior to most of his peers – “Heaven”, [...]

Shaman’s Harvest – Rock on the Range audio interview

Audio interview with Shaman’s Harvest guitarist Josh Hamler. He breaks down the band’s history, their recent success with “Dragonfly”, and how they are prone to injury.

13 Stupid Questions with Maylene and the Sons of Disaster

Since last summer, one album is in constant rotation in our cars and iPods, reassuring the RUFKM writers will achieve our goal to go deaf by March. That album? Maylene and the Sons of Disaster: III.

Ryan Mccombs of Drowning Pool – Stupid Video Interview

Here is a YouTube clip of an interview we did with Ryan Mccombs of Drowning Pool at Crue Fest in W. Palm Beach.   You wouldn’t think that Ryan has a sense of humor since he’s usually singing angry songs about killing poodles *  but he is quite witty …. and obscene.  In other words, it was [...]

13 Stupid Questions with Jason McMaster of Broken Teeth, Dangerous Toys

The economy has taken it’s toll on many industries, but nobody has been hit harder than the publicity department at Broken Teeth LLC.

13 Stupid Questions with Pop Evil

Before you read this interview, you should know that RUFKM and Pop Evil have a rich history together.  In the beginning of 2009, Boondoggle had recommended their new album Lipstick on the Mirror,  so TylerDFC and I bought a copy and it was pretty damn good. Hell, Boondoggle even wrote an in depth review of [...]

[...]

13 Stupid Questions answered by…umm… The Answer

About a year ago while perusing a local “classic rock” station a sound both strangely familiar but entirely new began to emit from the speakers of my car. I immediately lunged towards the volume knob to crank the volume to 11, proceeded to sing like a fool while simultaneously banging my head like a crack-addict. [...]

13 Stupid Questions with The Last Vegas

Have you ever asked yourself: “What would Motley Crue sound like if they did not have Vince Neil stumbling around the stage incoherently mumbling the lyrics to their greatest hits and instead hired Josh Todd of Buckcherry as their lead singer?” No. How about dreaming of a band that redefines sleaze, brings back the Sunset Strip in all its glory and offers original and insightful [...]
