94XPOSED TUESDAY OCTOBER 11TH

Some new Rock has been released as it is Tuesday! I'll kick off the show today with some Parlor Mob! Parlor Mob, “Dogs” – Here’s a potential breakout band, as the group are starting to build some buzz around the single “Into The Sun.”

PARLOR MOB - INTO THE SUN
NIRVANA SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT

After making its mark as an alt-rock anthem 20 years ago, Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” has been re-appropriated by everyone from Patti Smith to Chris Brown to the folks behind Moulin Rouge. Later this fall, the song might get its most startling reworking when it’s delivered by some of our Muppet pals in the new film, The Muppets. Ultimate Classic Rock reports that the movie’s soundtrack includes the Nirvana track performed by The Muppets Barbershop Quartet. Seeing as it’s been reported that Dave Grohl has a cameo in the movie, we’re wondering if the two instances aren’t connected. The film stars Jason Segel and Amy Adams, who attempt to help Kermit, Gonzo and the gang save their theater from evil oilman Tex Richman (played by Chris Cooper). The movie opens on November 23.

Ozzy Osbourne has confirmed what an off the record Tony Iommi comment had previously started rumors of — a full-on Black Sabbath reunion. In a recent interview with The Prince of Darkness, Billboard asked about the possibilty of the rumored Black Sabbath reunion. Ozzy confirmed the rumors to be true, but didn’t sound hopeful that the reunion would go full term: “Yes, it’s a very, very strong possibility. It’s in the very early stages, so we haven’t recorded anything yet. If it works out, it’ll work out. If it doesn’t, I’ll keep doing my thing.” While the original lineup did tour in 2005, they haven’t released a new studio album since 1978′s ‘Never Say Die!’. Ozzy’s latest statements seem to indicate that a new album will be part of the plan this time around — that is — if things don’t fall apart too early. In the meantime the Ozzman will be busy promoting his upcoming book of…uh, medical advice — ‘Trust Me, I’m Dr. Ozzy’ — which will go on sale October 11th.

BLACK SABBATH - PARANOID
WEEZER - SAY IT AIN'T SO

Weezer's former bass player Mikey Welsh was in Chicago to see his old band perform, the 40-year old was found dead by hotel staff prior to the show. The strangest part of the story is that he actually foresaw his untimely passing. News of his "unexpected" death was first reported by his family via Twitter, yet it was not a surprise to everyone. On September 26th, Welsh posted the following eerily cryptic message on Twitter himself: "Dreamt I died in Chicago next weekend (heart attack in my sleep). Need to write my will today." Welsh later corrected his timing mix up saying, "Correction: weekend after next." Whether this was a desperate cry for help or a genuine vision of his own doom will probably never be clear.
