New York’s punk band H2O is going to have a good month next month. And if you’re a fan, you’re gonna have a good month next month, too! Starting off at the beginning of December, H2O will be doing a quick 4-day tour with Man Overboard and Wisdom In Chains. Then, at the end of the month, they will be playing 3 shows with 3 different bands: Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Hatebreed, and the Bouncing Souls.

All should be good shows, but here’s the best part for the fans: On December 30th, H2O is playing a show and is going to let the fans pick the set. Nice! It’s easy. You go over here and participate in this poll, where you choose your favorite songs for them to play. Sick, huh?

Here are the show dates. This seems like something you would not want to miss out on.

I remember back in March when My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Way told MTV that the band was going to unveil the new album in “a special way this time. Maybe some sort of event, something fun...” Well, they’ve been having way too much fun lately going around in masks and toy laser guns and making videos of it. Apparently, another video will be surfacing on November 16th at 12pm PST as a way to premiere their new mouthful of an album Danger Days: The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys. It’s apparently going to be hosted by Dr. Death Defying (the Killjoys pirate radio DJ guide…or something like that) directly from his lair. I hope it’s an underground lair, so I can call him Dr. Evil.

Danger Days, a concept album (surprise, surprise), will be out November 22nd on Reprise Records, and this is My Chemical Romance’s first studio album in four years, since The Black Parade.

Huntington Beach’s metal act Avenged Sevenfold is doing something for the fans, who had so much of an “UPROAR”. From mid-January to mid-February, A7X is going to be traveling the States, playing shows in a tour called the Nightmare After Christmas Tour. You get it? They released an album called Nightmare…and it’s a play on that one movie with Jack Skellington and the ragdoll…

Anywho, you can find the tour dates right here. Avenged Sevenfold will be joined by Stone Sour and Hollywood Undead.

Avenged Sevenfold’s last album Nightmare was released this past July on Warner Bros. Records. Haha, that always makes me think of Bugs Bunny throwing the horns and moshing like a madman…
