welcome to rockmegeddon each week we will go to the depth of hell to choose the best song of the issue and the best album. hope u enjoy.
ok for the 1st rock megeddon in metal mash history i had to choose a song that was explosive. no better song to choose then south of heaven by slayer. This classic rift on the intro is nought to get any rock fan ecstatic. check it out on the website.
my album of the issue is balls out by steel panther. This is there 2nd album and features songs such as tiger woods and 17 girls in a row. there mixture of heavy metal rifts and sexual lyrics produce a band like no other. This is a valentines album for anyone who don't give a ^&%^ about valentines just wanna rock :P .

Bristol based metal band featuring the unrelenting force of ex-Clockwork Sniper members Dean Jordan & Richard White, fused together with the intense and brutal vocals of ex-Blood Of Ash front man Lewis Capaldi and the furious back beats of Richard Hall. This combination of disturbed minds, diverse musical influences and 'heavy know how' have produced a monstrous audio delight which we call MIND FOR MURDER! Mind For Murder was formed in September 2010 after the sudden demise of the popular Bristol thrash metal band Clockwork Sniper. Wanting to carry on with playing music and still holding the desire to be in a kick-ass band, Rich White and Dean Jordan teamed up with Rich Hall. Rich was the clear favorite for a drummer who possessed the necessary skills and shared the same passion and desires as the rest. Rich had also worked with Dean on other projects and also jammed out together in their younger years. His compatibility in the band was a no brain-er and within weeks the foundations of Mind for Murder was formed. 15

Lewis Capaldi, ex-Blood of ash vocalist applied for the position and was immediately snapped up. His vocal range and skill gave them that extra edge that MFM were looking for. Browner became the rhythm guitarist and sang backing vocals. After several successful gigs, Browner decided to leave the band and MFM carried on regardless. With nothing to hold them back and nothing to lose The music got tighter, the determination got stronger and MFM still thrive as a 4 piece. The dynamic as a four piece has actually made the sound punchier, tight and sound better than ever before and people ponder on how it is possible four a four piece to sound so heavy and big. Always on the up, MFM is fast on the path of audio domination. written by Mind for murder
