Motley Crue Enter The Studio To Record New Song

Posted by admin with No Comments

American glam metal legends Motley Crue has entered drummer Tommy Lee’s Atrium Studio today to begin recording a brand new song, their first new material since the 2008 studio album, “Saints of Los Angeles.” A message from bass player Nikki Sixx reads as follows:

“Mötley Crüe and the Crüeheads have pretty much taken over Vegas the last few weeks… It really feels like we’re riding the positive chaos right now. We just did a huge new photo shoot, were finishing up a brand new Crüe song for summer (that will lead to an full album after), European headline shows on festivals and in arenas too, but none of this would happen without you guys. Thank you.” [Source]

MÖTLEY CRÜE’s TOMMY LEE: ‘I Still Love’ Drumming

Posted by admin with No Comments

MÖTLEY CRÜE drummer Tommy Lee was interviewed for the cover story in the March 2012 issue of U.K.’s “best-selling drum magazine” Rhythm.

In addition to his touring and recording obligations with the CRÜE, Lee continues to make appearances around the world with his dance-music partner DJ Aero. He also founded the rap-metal band METHODS OF MAYHEM in the 1990s and has pursued other solo musical projects.

When asked if he still loves loves drumming, Lee said, “I do, I still love it! But it’s not my only thing. It’s weird because whereas early on it was my main thing, then I taught myself guitar and I love to sing. Then I started singing background vocals with MÖTLEY and then I was singing all the time and people would say, ‘Hey, man, your voice sounds really good,’ the I’d sing demos for MÖTLEY and bring them in and Vince [Neil, vocals] would sing on the track. I’m constantly evolving as a musician. Drums isn’t my one thing anymore. I love to produce. I love to make tracks, write tracks, produce tracks and I can’t just sit back as a drummer anymore, I have to have my hands on it and say, ‘The guitar should sound like this, the bass should sound like this, this is how the drums should sound, the vocals would be really cool like this, this melody is not so good, let’s try this.’ I just have to touch all of it now. I just know too much!” [Source]

Motley Crue Invade Sin City: Concert Review

Posted by admin with No Comments

Motley Crue have never been a band with a hidden agenda, so as I entered The Joint last night (Feb. 15) at the Hard Rock Casino in Las Vegas, I knew exactly what I was getting myself into — I just wasn’t expecting it to feel so good.

Motley Crue have always put on a live show of the grandest scale with all the pomp, circumstance and theatrics they can scheme up combined with their special own brand of raunch and roll, making for not just a night of great music, but an experience for anyone in attendance. So, take all of that on an average day for the Crue, mix it with Sin City and you can only imagine the results. They traded in their ‘Carnival of Sins’ for ‘Carnival of Sin City’ and invited all of their friends to come along for the ride.

With a local cross dresser serving as the master/mistress of ceremonies, the show kicked off with ‘Mini-Crue’ dressed in their ‘Theatre of Pain’ attire, before they were booted off the stage by the real deal. Motley Crue started the show on a high note right out of the gate with ‘Livewire,’ getting the crowd involved from the word go. Read the rest of this entry »

New Motley Crue Album and Movie Coming

Posted by admin with No Comments

Motley Crue guitarist Mick Mars has laughed off Vince Neil’s claims that he’s thinking of retiring from the band when their Las Vegas residency ends later this month. And the guitarist reveals his long-awaited solo album could feature elements of death metal.

Mars is currently appearing with the Crue in the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, with two-hour shows scheduled to take place until February 19. But he’s convinced Neil won’t act on his recent comments about leaving the band to pursue other projects he might not otherwise find time for.

The guitarist tells Ultimate Classic Rock: “Okay, here’s my answer: Fat chance. That’s a good neutral answer, I think.” On the contrary, Mars says fans can expect a new album within the next 18 months, along with the much-vaunted movie version of their book The Dirt. [Source]

Rumor Mill: KISS & Motley Crue to Tour Together

Posted by admin with No Comments

It’s only a rumor at this time but, according to the site bravewords.com, a source has reported that KISS and Motley Crue will tour together in the Fall.

If the report is true, it would most likely be a KISS headlining tour in support of their album Monster with Motley Crue in a support role.

KISS should have the recording of the Monsteralbum in the can according to members of the group although no timeframe has been set for the release.

On the other hand, Motley Crue may be in a bit of an upheaval. They are playing a short residency in Las Vegas in February; however, lead Vince Neil has said that he might be leaving the group. “This is all about me thinking about the second half of my life, thinking about my future, and that future might not include Motley Crue after Vegas.”

We will pass along any further developments on this rumor when they become available. [Source]
