HELLYEAH

HellYeah's self-titled debut drop's April 10th. The band is comprised of members from Mudvayne, Nothingface and marks the return of former Pantera/Damageplan drummer, Vinnie Paul. In a recent interview with Billboard.com, Vinnie talks about the initial difficulty of recording HellYeah's debut album in the same studio he and his late brother Dimebag shared. HellYeah will take part in this year's Family Values Tour which will make a stop in San Antonio.

BLACK LIGHT BURNS

Former Limp Bizkit guitarist Wes Borland's new group, Black Light Burns, will release their debut CD on June 5th. "Cruel Melody" will focus more on Borland's musical whims and less on the style that made him famous with his previous band. The album was produced by former Nine Inch Nails member Danny Lohner with drums on the album performed by Josh Freese.

The Deftones return to San Antonio on May 18th & 19th at Sunset Station. Tickets are on sale today and are $25 in advance and $27.50 the-day-of-show. You can purchase your tickets at the Sunset Station box office, Ticketmaster outlets, Livenation.com and by phone at 224-9600.
