Beauty lovers and Green Day fans, rejoice! That epic Kat Von D collaboration, the properly titled “Basket Case” liner, is officially here, and Kat Von D explains just how that collaboration of epic proportions came together. Kat Von D talks music influence for Billie Joe Armstrong “Basket Case” liner "I pitched the idea of shooting the campaign paying homage to this poster I used to have up on my wall, and it was this old photograph of Sid and Nancy and they were handcuffed together, and I just remember staring at that as a teenager," she tells Billboard. "Nancy had this blown out black eye look and I was like, 'Oh, this totally makes sense.' I could totally see that image being translated with myself and Billie Joe." The formula is perfect to create the smudge-inspired Billie Joe look, with Kat Von D Beauty's site explaining that the formula glides on creamy, letting you "build, blend, smudge and smoke it out" to achieve your desire...

Corey Taylor Vows To Stop Engaging Trolls About Politics On Twitter Corey Taylor has told the Kerrang! magazine in the UK that his New Year's Resolution is to stop engaging trolls about politics on Twitter. The outspoken Slipknot and Stone Sour frontman, whose disdain for Donald Trump is quite prevalent throughout his latest book, last year's "America 51", said: "Honestly, I would rather take a f***ing saw to my own face than deal with that kind of bulls**t anymore. It's so unnecessary and pathetic, and I can't take any more of that shit. It's not even that I have a problem with their politics: it's their self-righteous indignation that comes with it. "For all the harrumphing that the right does about the left being a bunch of snowflakes, they are the ones that are so hurt about so much s**t, it's not even funny," he continued. "I look at them and think, 'I'm not going to sit here and debate a crying child....

“Through your art you will live forever” Good Charlotte has shared a studio recording of Lil Peep's "Awful Things," available for streaming now. And along with sharing the track, the band penned a heartfelt message about Lil Peep's life and lasting legacy. "Every now and then a new artist comes along, who you know is sure to change music. Lil Peep was one of those artists." The band covered Peep's song earlier this month at Lil Peep's special fan memorial service, and Good Charlotte's Joel Madden says they were happy to be a part of the memorial and show their love for Peep, fans, family, and his friends. “They asked us if we wanted to do something to participate in the memorial. We were overseas on tour in the U.K., so we put together that cover. It was kind of crazy - we put it together, recorded it, filmed it, all in a matter of two or three days. We just wanted to do something to be a part of the memorial and show our love t...

Insane Clown Posse fight against the FBI

Image
Insane Clown Posse just can't get any love from the FBI. In the newest development from Insane Clown Posse 's protracted legal battle over the FBI labeling their fans "Juggalos" as a gang, the horrorcore duo has lost their latest appeal to overturn the criminal designation. As reported by The Washington Post, the FBI's Juggalo gang label "could be here to stay." The paper notes that the 6th U.S. Circuit Court Of Appeals, in a strange statement of legalese, ruled that the FBI's move to call Juggalos a gang wasn't a "final agency action" and, therefore, can't be challenged in court. Um, what? This new ruling nixes a 2014 lawsuit brought by Insane Clown Posse that claimed the FBI's decision violated their constitutional rights and caused Insane Clown Posse concert cancellations due to concerns from law enforcement. All of this stems from the FBI's National Gang Intelligence Center listing the Juggalos as ...
