Mama said Knock you out!

Slick ROCK Cover By Ivan Moody and the 5FDP Crew!
It's about time Five Finger Death Punch is bringing that FULL RAP STYLE completely into their sounds...It just makes sense!

Alternative Hip Rock has become a Genre of Music!
Like there aren't 1000s of genres already, right? :-P

Check this out - from an old LL COOL J song...One that I personally grew up loving. Now, I love both versions. Thanks 5FDP & Tech N9NE for bringing this classic back! \nn/

Small preview in this video - listen at the end:

You also gotta check out the new cover they did on "The Wrong Side of Heaven and the Righteous side of Hell Vol 2."

They pulled off something sick! WOW! -- House of the Rising Sun ... Really??...Yep! ...And they really modernized it without ruining the original feeling of the song. Amazing!!! Kudos to Five Finger Death Punch!! Also, take a listen at the song "Matter of Time". Another STRONG SONG from that album!!

Getting Disturbed, Hearing Voices in my head

David Draiman briefly talked about the band's 5th studio album, stating that the album will be as dark as their previous album, Indestructible, if not darker. Draiman also stated that the album is still identifiably Disturbed, but showing more maturation. Judging by Draiman's feelings on the last few years of his life, that Disturbed's new album will be aggressive, angry, and "hard-hitting", but will be similar to their album Believe.

In March of 2010, the band released a reissue of their debut album, The Sickness, with the B-side tracks "God of the Mind" and "A Welcome Burden", updated artwork, as well as remastering and remixing the track list. It was also available for the first time in vinyl format. One month earlier, Harmonix announced a second Disturbed pack for download on the Rock Band music store, containing the remastered versions of "Voices", "The Game", and "Meaning of Life".

Here is Voices:

Waiting for the End of Linkin Park

Back in early 2009, Linkin Park announced they were working on a 4th studio album, which was planned to be released in 2010. Mike Shinoda told IGN that the new album would be 'genre-busting,' building off of elements in Minutes to Midnight. He also mentioned that the album would be more experimental and "hopefully more cutting-edge." Chester Bennington also addressed the media to confirm that Rick Rubin would return to produce the new album. They later called this album, "A Thousand Suns".

While working on the new album, Linkin Park worked with Hans Zimmer to produce the score for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. The band released a single for the movie entitled "New Divide". Joe Hahn created a music video for the song, which featured clips from the film. After completing work for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, the band returned to the studio to finalize their album.

A Thousand Suns was released in September. The album’s first single, "The Catalyst", was released one month later. The band promoted their new album by launching a concert tour, which started in Los Angeles right around the release date of the album. Linkin Park also relied on MySpace to promote their album, releasing two additional songs, "Waiting for the End" and "Blackout" in September.

Here's the song, Waiting For The End:
