RIP Proof
 |
D12 rapper Proof shot to death. |
LIMP Bizkit frontman Fred Durst has utilised a new song and his Myspace.com blog to bash former guitarist Wes Borland, who left the band in recent months to pursue a new group, Black Light Burns. Bizkit has been off the radar since last year, when its Borland-featuring EP, The Unquestionable Truth Pt. 1, was released to dismal sales. Durst strikes back in a minute-long song called Unacceptableinterlude, which features such lyrics as “Stop making plans to manipulate fans and finally stick to something you believe / ’Cause you had us all fooled and, I’ll admit, even me / Manipulating like a crook who’s arrestable / It’s unacceptable, ****ing unacceptable.”
Borland responded on Black Light Burns’ Myspace page, admitting, “After years and years of dealing with each other, it seems that Fred and I still have not figured out how to keep it positive. I’m to blame, he’s to blame. It sucks. We never talk.” He added, “I still have zero plans to work with (Limp Bizkit) in the future, but anything is possible.”
ALICE In Chains has lined up more than two-dozen European dates for its first tour since 1996. The veteran Seattle rock act will return to the road beginning May 26 at the Super Bock Festival in Lisbon and has festival and headlining shows on tap through July 2 in Nijmegen, Holland. Original members guitarist Jerry Cantrell, bassist Mike Inez and drummer Sean Kinney will be joined in Europe by new vocalist William DuVall. He replaces the late Layne Staley, who died of a drug overdose in 2002.
