Mtv metal weekend

Recommended Posts

Guest razazteca

Did anybody catch the Headbangers Uncensored special or the 25 Loud video show?  This is the second time that MTV has taunted me at bringing back metal, well the metal that I prefer.  Last time they had Rob Zombie host a half hour show with videos by current Ozzfest and Family Values wanna-be bands.  Then this week they teased bringing back Headbangers Ball with the "History of" special, then followed it up with 25 Loud, with several potential hosts, making funny comments about the videos.

 

If Headbangers Ball or any show that featured metal who should be the host?  Matt Pinfield, or Ian that looks like Pinfield, Ian from Anthrax, Tenadious D, Jesse Camp, Jack Osbourne?  I think Ian "I'm not Pinfield's clone" would be perfect

Scott Ian the perfect host of any hard rock/metal show. Why? Because of the jokes he makes about every band, including his own (Anthrax, SOD), and the fact that he actually studies the histories of the band, so he knows their influences.

 

I actually wouldn't mind seeing Jesse Camp's skinny ass back on MTV, either...

Today was an all rock weekend on MTV1&2. Cool for me. Loved the Special on the Mosh pit (Esp. the part with Smashing Pumpkins) and then the H.B show. Will it come back? Most likely a form of Headbanger's Ball will return On MTV2 (where it ought to be) and you can have Ian Scott (take his ROCKSHOW from VH1 and add better graphics and you got the right show), Iann Robbinson (He seems very intelligent about ROCK music), Matt Pinfield is Matt Pinfield. Tenacious D would be a comedy show and that won't suck but JackBlack may be more focused on Movies to host a show. Jack Osbourne? I don't know how "in" he is with ROCK music, and he does not seem like a "host" looks like a horrible interviewer, just have him guest appear often to plug the family. Jesse Camp? As long as Thalia and Ray stay away.

Well MuchMusic already has a Headbangers Ball type show. It comes on at 11pm saturday nights and it's called loud and it's not bad it plays some good stuff. I believe that MuchMusic now has a new channel which is a metal channel(like mtvx) called Loud. However i know that everyone doesn't get MuchMusic. I also have no clue how you get the channel loud.

 

Jack Osbourne is into "ROCK music" and i think he has his own label(gee i wonder how he got a record label).

I don't remember Headbanger's Ball ever playing any punk videos. I just remember the musical intros using S.O.D. "Chromatic Death"!!! Is anyone here even old enough to remember the original headbanger's ball? They certainly played alot of white lion and great white videos!

headbangers ball would rule with Ian, jack osbourne(the first person i thought of when they were teasing bringing it back at the end of the show) and someone(preferrably a metal band member) doing road reports.

I like how on "rock weekend" MTV fucking cancels my MTVX channel and replaces it with MTV Jams!!!

 

i could live with Jack osbourne as host of a new HBall...he seems like a jerk, but he knows his music

just use Iann Robinson. He has a strong rapport with metal fans and he's already under contract. J.O will likely turn it down as he'd perfer to run his label.

Extreme Rock, the other metal show hosted by Rob Zombie, was a sweet show during the weekend.  It started with Slayer "Bloodlines", then got weaker with Andrew WK, then Sugercult, Rob Zombie "Feel so good", then Aphex Theory, and finish strong with Korn's new video.  I don't know WTF is Extreme Rock considered by MTV standards since they had Slayer with heavy guitars then had Sugercult & Aphex Theory which sound alot like regular rock that is played on MTV.

 

Now if only MTV would have a regular time spot for this show, or at least run promos so people know that it exist.

 

If MTV is bringing back the metal show, then I think that the host could be Ian Robinson with "on the road reporters" of Scott Ian and Rob Zombie, then have the Osbourne family do updates on the Ozzfest tour.

There is also a new rock show on late on MTV called All things Rock hosted by two guys from Good Charlotte.
