Anthony, whose backing vocals are crucial to classics like "Running With the Devil" and "Panama," won't be on the road with Eddie Van Halen and David Lee Roth, who have hired Eddie Van Halen's sixteen-year-old son Wolfgang as a replacement bassist.

TODAY'S PICKS |
|
DAILY TRACK: Underground Kingz - "The Game Belongs to Me" UGK are as Houston as oil rigs, having helped originate the slow-rolling drawl-and-brawl sound that defines H-town hip-hop, but they were sidelined while their city blew up. But several cuts suggest the powerhouse UGK could have been, including the wickedly catchy "The Game Belongs to Me" feels like a beautifully stoned cruise on a humid Houston evening. Click HERE for more on Underground Kingz' album. |

DAILY VIDEO: New Music Tuesdays - Manu Chao, Animal Collective |
|
DAILY REVIEW: Against Me! - New Wave You're not supposed to sing lines like "Similar trends in camera technique and editing" or "Protest songs in response to military aggression." They're stiff, Latinate, artistically self-conscious. But on a major-label debut following a breakthrough album all too rich in intelligent angst, they're also ballsy, and with help from name producer Butch Vig, Tom Gabel's emo-hardcore band makes them rock. Click HERE for more on the Against Me! album. |
