Certified Psychos Tour: Baltimore Show Review
The Certified Psychos Tour featuring Twiztid, Blaze ya dead homie and Anybody Killa came into Baltimore and not only did they bring the smoke they brought the old school jams.
This Twiztid tour was an old school slobber knocker setlist tour with all 3 headliners intertwining between songs. It’s been a while since I’ve got to see Blaze and ABK, but this tour brought back so many good memories. All 3 pulled out some classic bangers and even some deep cut shit. These were the songs we use to hear banging every time a tour came around those days which seemed to be like 2-3 times a year.
Twiztid did “2nd Hand Smoke”, “Mutant X” “First day Out” . Blaze did “Grave ain’t no place”, “Casket” and Maggot Face”. While ABK did “ Come out and Play”, “Gang Related” and “Hey Y”all”. With a bunch more hits from all 3 as well.
Then they all left the stage which I figured was going to be the “Encore” when they came back out to do a few more songs but I was surprised. We had an encore reunion of the one and only gangstas reppin’ Psychopathic Rydas. The Rydas banged out “Dumpin” “Black Trucks” and “Pimp Suit” .
After a few more songs they all left the stage again and one could only imagine that maybe since the Rydas were in the house maybe Dark Lotus might make an appearance also, and just like that wicked black magic “bammm” The Lotus was on stage also banging out shit like “Ka-Boom”, “Pass the Axe” and ending the night with “Juggalo Family”.
This was such a killer night, it just reminded me how much I loved going to all those shows back in the day in between Pittsburgh and Cleveland. We may never get a full Psychopathic Records “Hayday” reunion but regardless the songs of that ERA will always live on. WHOOP WHOOP

Collective Soul “7EVEN YEAR ITCH” Greatest Hits 1994-2001 Vinyl
I’ve always been a big fan of Collective Soul and have been lucky to have seen them a few times. This band has always been in my music mixes since the 1990s.
The vinyl release is exactly what you would want for a greatest-hits album. All the best songs that collective soul had from 1994–2001 If you were a teenager or an adult in the 90s, you can’t tell me that you didn’t jam out to songs like “Shine,” “Gel,” and “December.”
With other great songs like “Heavy,” “Run,” “The World I Know,” and “Forgiveness,” This greatest hit album sounds amazing on vinyl as well. Craft Recordings has done a really great job of keeping the magic and sound of these amazing songs.
The sleeve cover has some cool photos of the band throughout the years. This vinyl just came out in Collective Soul fashion in December, and is ready to be part of your vinyl collection, and just brings you back to a great time in life.

Otep – Hydra 10th Anniversary Vinyl
I received a copy of the album, and when I first opened it, the artwork struck me first. Otep has always been a great visual artist, with her amazing drawings and characters. I even have one of them tattooed on myself. When you see the artwork on this vinyl release, you will really be drawn in and appreciate the artistry.
The sound of this vinyl is amazing. It’s been years since I’ve listened to anything on vinyl and forgot how much I loved the sound of the medium compared to CDs and digital releases. I love the songs on this album because, as with all Otep albums, it has such raw power and emotions, mixed with the anger and beauty of Otep’s poetry. Otep is one of the greats.
The album starts off with the track “Rising,” and this initial song sets the tone for what you’re about to hear from the balance of the album. The standout tracks on this album have to be “Necromantic,” “Apex Predator,” “Voyeur,” and “Feral Game.” Over all, the album as a complete piece of art is amazing. I would encourage you, if you’re a fan of Otep or a collector of vinyl, to add this vinyl to your collection.

WEDNESDAY 13: Performs Muderdolls Lititz PA Show Review
Wednesday 13 came into Lititz, PA, on November 18th, bringing the music, or The MurderDolls, with him. Continuing the legacy of Joey Jordison and Ben Graves.
Wednesday 13 is on a tour now; that’s all MurderDolls. 21 years have passed since Beyond the Valley of the MurderDolls came out, and 13 years have passed since Women and Children Last was released. Wednesday and his bandmates are sharing the stage with Infected Rain and Gemini Syndrome on this tour.
The show was amazing; this was our first time covering a show at Mickey’s Black Box. The venue, the staff, and our media contact were so hospitable. The venue was amazing, with a cool balcony on the second floor to watch the show as well.
We got to hear a full set of 20 MurderDolls songs, which was pretty much every song on both albums. There were some songs I haven’t gotten to hear in a long time, like “Grave Robbing USA”, “Drug Me To Hell”, and “Summertime Suicide”. Of course, it wouldn’t be a MurderDolls show if they didn’t play “I Love to Say Fuck” and finish the night with “Dead in Hollywood.”
It’s always a blast to see Wednesday 13 in concert, and I was so excited for the band that a lot of these shows were sold out. It was also a special night because it was my GF’s “50th” birthday and my buddy’s GF’s birthday the next day. We got the MC of the show, Don Jamieson, to give them a little birthday shout-out.
Although it’s sad that Joey and Ben are no longer with us, I’m sure Joey is loving that Murderdolls is still kicking ass after all those years, and I know that Wednesday 13 is so appreciative of what MurderDolls has done for his career.
