It may be a digital world, but Papa Roach are urging fans to get the physical copy of their latest album, "Time For Annihilation." One of the reasons is the great picture collage that’s part of the artwork for the disc. Singer Jacoby Shaddix says, "My favorite shot [on here] is me in my women’s footed Wal-Mart PJ’s at soundcheck. It was on a tour with Shinedown and we were getting ready to rehearse. We covered ‘Beautiful Day’ with Shinedown….They are Eeyore PJs." For guitarist Jerry Horton, he says his favorite photo is of Tobin Esperance losing his bass during a performance. {CLIP} For those and other fun Papa Roach moments, pick up a copy of "Time For Annihilation," in stores now.

Danko Jones has just released the second video in his planned trilogy, and it stars Ralph Macchio from The Karate Kid movie. The video is for Had Enough, from Danko’s current album Below The Belt. It’s said to be one part Guy Ritchie, one part Quentin Tarantino and one part Sabotage (we assume this is the 90s movie, not the Sabbath album). Also featured in it is Don Jamieson from That Metal Show. This is actually the prequel to the first video, for Full Of Regret. The storyline this time has mad scientist Macchio ordering Danko Jones to deal with the fact that the former’s found a way to clone himself. The band’s ultimate failure to do so leads on to Full Of Regret.

Jason Bonham says that the never fully off the ground regrouping of Led Zeppelin without Robert Plant did produce some new music: "I was in a band for a year after the O2 reunion, with Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones writing material," Bonham tells Nightwatcher. "It didn't come out, but that was a very good time in my life, just jamming with them and coming up with material. Even though nothing came out, it felt like a band." The Jason Bonham Experience is in town Oct. 9th. The high tech and state of the art multimedia/live rock exerience is sure to blow the minds of every hardcore Zeppelin fan!
