We attended a listening session held by Giles Martin to listen to tracks from the 50th anniversary edition of the Beatles' White Album.

'I still can’t believe it actually happened,' singer William DuVall wrote. 'Robby Krieger is one of my absolute heroes – a rocker with the heart of a jazzman.'

'I don’t think he realizes how inspiring that must have been for so many young metalheads that were gay.'

Nita Strauss, John 5 and Henry Rollins look back at the impact of "Van Halen."

'Bands that are more political, like Sepultura or System of a Down, taught me to be my own person and not take the status quo as acceptable.'

Sevendust's Lajon Witherspoon called him "The Future," and he's probably right. Watch the kid burn up the fretboard.

This is the coolest logo generator we've ever seen.

Guitarist Jake Kiszka says the "never meet your heroes" thing is wrong; he talks about the band's experience opening for Bob Seger in Michigan a few months ago.

'I am not leaving the band,' Tipton notes. 'It’s simply that my role has changed.'
