Stop me if you've heard this one before. Two robots and a mau5 walk into a bar... Seriously though, major props to these guys cosplaying as Daft Punk and DeadMau5 at San Diego Comic-Con 2011!
On June 3rd, 1970 Deep Purple In Rock was unleashed. It was the band's fourth studio album and fifth overall in just under two years. It was the first studio release for the legendary Mk II line up (the live Concerto for Group and Orchestra was released just six months prior, but that's another song) and despite not receiving the lion's share of post-2K resurgent popularity which their peers have, Deep Purple In Rock stands monumentally as an icon of first generation hard rock and a blue print of the future for the genre of heavy metal.
Earlier this week, we lost one of the architects of Hard Rock when Malcolm Young of AC/DC passed away at age 64. Young's rhythm guitar prowess and song writing skills influenced many musicians who followed him, including Dave Grohl, who led a rocking tribute to Young at a Foo Fighters concert in Mexico City. Let there be rock indeed. Source: NME
