After 14 years of playing with Korn, guitarist Brian “Head” Welch has decided to leave the band. Headʼs decision came after weeks of speculation that he was unhappy with the direction the band is taking and has cited his moral obligations to Christianity as the main reason he is departing. In more possible breakup news, Blink-182 have confi rmed that the band will be going on an “indefi nite hiatus” so they can take the time to enjoy family life. Prepping for an April 12 release, Mudvayne recently announced a U.S. tour with Life of Agony, American Head Charge and Bloodsimple. West coast dates for the trek have yet to be revealed. If youʼve ever wanted to talk to Usher, Lindsay Lohan or Fred Durst, all you had to do was call. This past weekend, a hacker tapped in to Paris Hiltonʼs T-Mobile Sidekick and posted pictures, schedules and celebrity phone numbers on the Web. Although most celebrities have either turned off or changed their cell numbers by now, one can always thank Hilton with a “Paris Made Me Change My Number” t-shirt being sold online. Fans of the animated band Gorillaz donʼt have to wait much longer for the bandʼs second album. Danger Mouse has fi nished production on the untitled disc which has been slated for a March 24 release. The O.C.ʼs fourth mixtape installment will be on shelves April 5. The compilation will include a cover of “Champagne Supernova” by Matt Pond PA, “The View” by Modest Mouse and “Scarecrow” from Beckʼs upcoming album, Guero. DJ John Digweed has set March 8 as the date to drop his album Fabric 20. The DJ will follow up the release with a string of US dates in March to support the effort. Judas Priest has rejoined with Rob Halford and will release their fi rst album with him in 14 years. The band is gearing up to deliver Angel of Retribution to their masses of
fans on March 1. House of Blues, Anaheim will feature Dead Kennedys on Feb. 24. Duran Duran will be at Staples Center on Feb. 26. Writers Guild of America announced the winners of its annual prizes over the weekend. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind won best original screenplay and won best original screenplay and Super Size Me took best documentary honors.
