The Ridiculousness theme song, which is a reworked version of the Devo track “Uncontrollable Urge” is a big money maker according to vocalist Mark Mothersbaugh Even though “Whip It” is the band’s best-known song, “Uncontrollable Urge” is their biggest earner, bringing in over a million dollars a year thanks to the show with Rob Dyrdek. “I’ve written so many other songs for films and television shows,” Mothersbaugh told Rolling Stone. “I would’ve been shocked [years ago] if you told me this is the one that would become this prime source of income.” He continued, “MTV stopped playing us but we came to the other side of the circle. It’s a nice ironic twist because this was one of the songs we never even made a music video for. And now it’s maybe the most-played song ever on MTV.” #rock #alternative #ridiculousness

Shinedown is teasing a new song called “365” Shinedown vocalist Brent Smith and bassist Eric Bass debuted the track live last November during an acoustic set at the Lovepup Foundation. Today, the band shared a recap video of the past year with a snippet of what sounds like a studio version of the track. What do you think of it? @Shinedown #rock #metal #metalhead #hardrock #shinedown

Slipknot, Falling in Reverse, and Five Finger Death Punch will headline this year’s Inkcarceration Festival. The fest returns July 18-20, 2025, featuring over 66 bands including Knocked Loose, Beartooth, Marilyn Manson, Slaughter to Prevail, Three Days Grace (with Adam Gontier), Crossfade and many more. One band name is still blurred out on the festival graphic. Any guesses? Clown of Slipknot said, “Slipknot is playing very few shows in the U.S. this year, so this will be special. It will be good to be back with our friends, family, and culture at the Inkcarceration Music & Tattoo Festival. Stay safe! Stay (sic)!" Ronnie Radke of Falling In Reverse said, “I am honored to play side by side with legends like Slipknot, a band that I grew up listening to. See you soon, Ohio!!!” #slipknot #fallinginreverse #rock #metal #metalcore #numetal

Slaughter To Prevail frontman Alex Terrible will make his return to bare knuckle boxing after suffering an injury during a sparring match last November. On January 25th, the RCC Hard league will host a bare knuckle match between Terrible and Kazakh fighter Mukhamedkhan Ospanov. The fight will likely be available on the RCC Hard League YouTube channel, but I’m not 100% sure because I don’t speak Russian. #slaughtertoprevail #rock #metal #metalhead #deathcore

You know Limp Bizkit’s song, but do you know the surprisingly tender story behind it? This holiday season, gather around as the man with a beard and red hat tells us the real meaning of “Nookie” Fred Durst was doing an interview with Dazed for the new A24 film “Y2K” where he plays himself and when asked what he does it all for now, the nu-metal frontman said: "The funny thing about that though, nobody listened to the story in 'Nookie' they just listened to the catchphrase. It's like when I say Rage Against The Machine they listen to 'fuck you, I won't do what you tell me', they don't listen to the rest of it," said Durst. "'Nookie'. The first time I had been intimate with someone it happened later and I was very much head over heels in love because of that and I was just that guy. I was very much a vulnerable person in that world and I couldn't believe it even happened. So I fell in love and then this person was sleeping with other people and people would say 'Fred, you're so upset, why are you staying?' and I'd say 'because, we made love' and I found a different way to say that: I did it all for the nookie. That sounded more fun. So what I did it for then was the love. And what I do it for now is for the love. I have a new daughter, she's eight months old." #limpbizkit #numetal #metal #rock

ARE YOU READYYYY?! Well calm down, you’re gonna have to wait. Korn is currently working on their follow-up to the 2022 album “Requiem“, but it’s gonna be awhile before we hear it. The nu metal band’s guitarist Brian “Head” told the Everblack Podcast: “…We got a lot of it [written]. We’re still working. Dude, it’s a trip 30 years later, man, to try to keep doing it. And we’re very happy with what we got, but it’s just gonna take a while. And I don’t know how long — maybe next summer, maybe next year, the next winter, I don’t know, but it’s not gonna be soon.” Maybe we’ll hear some of it before the System of a Down stadium show? #korn #numetal #rock #metal #metalhead

In a new interview with Mythical Kitchen, Mike Shinoda explains their decision to keep the name Linkin Park when returning with new single Emily Armstrong “The simple answer to that is because the music sounds like Linkin Park, like the DNA is all still in there. It’s obvious to anybody who listens to it and gives it a chance” “The second thing though, that like as we were navigating the decisions we were making about like what is the band like what do we want to, who's in the band who's playing what, all that…we could have chosen a male singer, we could have chosen somebody that sounded very different, we could have chosen somebody that sounded very similar. We could have had the singer of one of our cover bands who covers Linkin Park and is like a doppelganger like so close to Chester, yeah could have had them.” “So what we did end up doing, which just naturally felt better, not like it was a strategy, when Emily came in, it's like she sings so well she's a ton of fun to hang out with. We end up just sitting around for like two hours just talking yeah like that's the thing at the end of the day that made it obvious what direction we should go” #linkinpark #chesterbennington #mikeshinoda #emilyarmstrong #numetal #rock #metal
