如果你和我一样同时是Beatles和Metallica的Fans，那么没错了，这就是近年来最有趣最创新的乐队 - BEATALLICA！从名字我们都可以看出来这是Beatles和Metallica的混合体。

把BEATLES的作品Thrash起來，也许Beatallica不是第一个做的，但是绝对是做得最出色最让人赞叹的，主唱的声线不但跟 James Hertfield几乎一模一样，而且更是在Beatles的歌曲中添加了大量Metallica式的节奏，甚至是将Beatles某首歌的歌词和 Metallica某首歌的合在一起。当你听到在《Let it be》中出现Hertfield著名的"yeahhhhh"这种Metallica气息，当你听到《Back to the U.S.S.R》最后出现的一声"BLACKENED"，当你听到《All My Loving》居然是《Fight Fire With Fire》的riff...这一切一切一切都是如此叫人喜出望外。

然而这所有之外，更让人欣赏的是，所有Beatallica的作品都可以从他们的站点上免费下载，包括很多网友作的Arts，将Beatles和Metallica的一些海报用PS合成起来，虽然质量良莠不齐，但是足见这种自由的共享精神引起的歌迷热情。

如果我们仔细看，连他们站点上的鼠标形状都是Metallica在举行演唱会的时候最常用的手势，哈哈，简直是细心到极点。

以下是Beatallica的成员组成：
Jaymz Lennfield

Krk Hammettson
- all instruments, lead guitar (live)

Kliff McBurtney

《Beatallica》是Beatallica的第二张EP，通常，又被乐迷们称作Grey Album——这名称来自于Beatles的White Album和Metallica的Black Album的混合——别和DJ Danger Mouse的The Grey Album(
)搞混了。

In a world where the mentality seems to be "work less, yet earn more," Slipknot have done everything they can to work harder and earn what they deserve, much to the chagrin of their so-called peers, yet to the delight of their fans, known affectionately as the Maggots. The latest culmination of their efforts is Slipknot 9.0: Live, a bludgeoning live double CD of the past three album's worth of material that captures all of the noise, hatred, intensity, violence, pain, blood and infection that make the maggots swarm.

</p>"Most of the people that are going to buy this record are core fans, and normally when they listen to an album, they say: 'Oh, this part is brutal, oh, this is bad-ass.' And they rewind over parts and sing along," Crahan explains. "But I think with this record, they're going to be very silent because I think they're going to be painting a picture of us live in their head as they hear it. You're used to seeing us live, but now you're hearing it live, so you're forced to paint the movie in your head, which creates a psychosis - that is what we are doing with rock and roll music."

</p>The 24 recordings on 9.0: Live were made directly from the soundboard in countless cities and capture the immediacy and explosiveness of the Slipknot experience, an experience that took on a new life two years ago. In July of 2003, Slipknot convened in a dilapidated mansion in the Hollywood Hills. By January of 2004, they emerged with Vol 3: The Subliminal Verses, an album that would re-establish them as the premiere hard rock band in the world. And in March of 2004, they set out to remind the world of that by doing what they do best: taking it to the people live - a full-contact concert experience. The album contains blips from the nearly two years of brutal touring the band waded through, rejoicing, suffering, destroying, but most importantly reconnecting as a unit, a family, an unstoppable force that will never be reckoned with, never be duplicated, but always envied.

众所皆知，巨大的成就并未让Linkin Park成员们便得不可一世、恃宠而骄，反之他们一直重视与乐迷之间的互动；是以Linkin Park为了让无法亲临现场的广大全球LP乐迷，也能第一时间感受到这场音乐盛事的演出热力，于是便将八月份在Reliant Stadium与Texas Stadium两场演出的实况录音，集结而成这张Linkin Park的首张官方现场专辑Live in Texas。
