Ayria premiered their new, and first, music video online today. Ayria is a Canadian electro-industrial-pop band with a sexified lead singer by the name of Jennifer Parkin, in case you were wondering.

Meat Loaf has announced a new slew of tour dates. I plan on attending the Atlanta, GA show on September 3 seeing as I will already be in town for Dragon*Con anyway. I was raised on Meat Loaf’s music, as my mother has always been on the obsessive side when it comes to his music. [...]
