Good questions that I have zero answers to!
Yeah we still have those seizure warnings. I'm glad I don't have that trouble!
Yeah I don't have any answers either. I know some authors get paid for product placement in books. Movies get paid for the same thing. Having a band wear clothes/shoes/whatever with maybe only a thank you in the liner notes but not any actual ads wouldn't be out of the question. I suppose if a company wanted their name spoken and used it would cost more, but just wearing products probably doesn't cost much. The best bit is how many wouldn't even realise what they are noticing. I never took much notice of Dave's Nike boots but now 30 years on I remember he seemed to wear them a lot. Advertising really does work!!
Yeah I'm glad too. It's interesting how powerful that subliminal advertising can work though. Flashing colours might make me wear red tomorrow but why did I buy this pumpkin and egg flip?

I was just trying to check out Jnr's new album and who does what on it too see if there was anything even worth trying to listen too. But his own emp merch website has been hacked and there is a redirect on the main page that takes viewers to some internet survey site. Loading it a second time the redirect disappears and the whole site works again but that's supremely bad.
Actually as I type that I seem to remember typing it before. I think I found the redirect on Jnr's site a few months back, which makes it even worse that they haven't fixed it.

FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCKITY FUCK MC FUCKING HELL!!
Someone hand me a couple of red hot fire pokers I need to shove them in my ears!
Geezus christ if the music industry wants to stop people download music they ought to make sure No Covers (which is all covers) is emailed to everyone in the world immediately. This fucking woeful piece of shit could stop music piracy in its tracks if all any body got when they downloaded an MP3 for the next week was this.
Look I'll be fair and give them a couple of points for songs like Riff Raff and Nailed To The Gun which are listenable but when listenable is your crowning glory it's not a good sign. Over The Mountain also kind of works because of whoever it is singing I'm sure it's not Thom.
Holiday In Cambodia sucks, how the fuck can someone sing that worse then a stoned and fucked up Jello?
Love Machine, is beyond fucking terrible...even Chris Holmes Decibel Shower was better than Thom fucking this song up.
Love Me Like A Reptile and Sheer Heart Attack are only saved by Doro.
And Beth, what the fuck possesses someone to fuck up such a classic heart breaker with a voice of a horny self serving baboon with two broken hands.
God this is fucking terrible. I'm having serious doubts about how good the Megadeth album is going to be given how many times Jnr has praised the songs on it. This album proves without a doubt that the guy is stone cold fucking deaf!
If I'd paid for this album it would definitely be immediately relegated to the worst album in my collection. Thank fuck I can just delete it.
Now excuse me I'm off to listen to Madonna sing American Pie, it's a classic compared to the POS!!

I'll bet the weren't the only band to have that endorsement. I think almost everyone in thrash were wearing high top sneakers and there were only so many brands. I'd bet a band like Anthrax would have had something like that too.Yeah I don't have any answers either. I know some authors get paid for product placement in books.

Oh holy crap. Now that's a fucking review!! And I don't doubt one word of it for a second. And sigh, what you say about the Megadeth album scares me now. I could have shrugged off Jnr's misstep's in the past. But he's praising his album and the new Megadeth at the same time and if the album is as bad as you say. He is not to be trusted lol.

Yeah I would imagine nearly every band had something. Anthrax probably had support by Target for those shorts

In their defence it may not pop up for them because there cache would always show a working cached version. It's part of the reason hackers write the script they way they do. But you'd think a dedicated fan...who obviously isn't myself...would have told them

The music is as good as any other cover band. If you've been playing instruments for as many years as these guys they should be able to play a song and make it sound as good as the original. But Thom's voice is fucking horrific. I knew it wasn't great from those other things Jnr as done with him but on parts of this album it's worse. The song choice for the voice could have been so much better, even with his lack of singing ability. It's almost like Thom is bribing Jnr and Jnr's to scared to not let him sing.
Jnr, one nod if you're being held to ransom by Thom and we'll send in the police dogs to save you!
