Is the entire "rockstar" dream just a massive, calculated lie? Henrik Ostergaard of Dirty Looks finally steps into the line of fire on THE CLASSIC METAL SHOW, and what he reveals is enough to make the corporate suits at Atlantic Records sweat. Did Henrik actually manipulate his original lineup into returning with a false promise of fame, or is he the only guy in the industry honest enough to admit the game is rigged? We dive into the AC/DC comparisons that both built and haunted his career—find out why the mainstream wanted to bury the "whiskey-drinking rock" sound of the late 80s.

The Ross The Boss BETRAYAL: Don't Buy the Corporate PR Garbage! (VIP)

Ross The Boss is facing a death sentence with ALS, and suddenly the "Kings of Metal" have a heart?. Give us a f*cking break. While the mainstream media laps up Manowar’s "deeply saddened" press release, we’re digging into the 35 years of backstabbing and lawsuits that Manowar wants you to forget. Is this a genuine peace offering, or is Joey DeMaio just terrified of the fans finally seeing him for the greedy "monster" he really is?. Alex and Alicia aren't playing nice—hit play to hear the brutal truth about the "evil" that Ross himself says destroyed the band.

PAUL STANLEY EXPOSED: 35 Years of the SAME Script? (2009)

Is the “Starchild” actually a well-oiled robot repeating the same lines for four decades? Neeley and Chris dig into the archives to prove that Paul Stanley hasn’t had an original thought on stage since 1973. Does the mainstream rock media actually believe this “Public Service Announcement” routine is organic, or are they just too scared to call out the KISS machine for being a total scripted sham? You won’t believe how identical these rants are until you hear the side-by-side evidence—hit play and see the mask slip. This episode originally aired on 9/12/09.

BRAD ARNOLD DEAD AT 47: The Shocking End of a Rock Legend!

The industry just lost its "Kryptonite," but why does the timing feel so damn wrong? Brad Arnold was only 47 years old—practically a kid in rock years—and the CMS News Exclusive is the only place with the balls to ask if the rock lifestyle finally claimed another victim or if the system failed him. The mainstream media is giving you the Hallmark version of the story, but Alicia and Alex are digging into the wreckage. Do you want the sanitized obituary, or do you want the scorched-earth reality of what happens when a rock soul burns out too soon? Hit play and find out why the rock community is actually pissed off.

Masterplan to Release METALMORPHOSIS In June!

Power metal legends MASTERPLAN, who are led by former HELLOWEEN guitarist Roland Grapow, will release their new studio album, "Metalmorphosis", on June 26, 2026 via Frontiers Music Srl.

Get Masterplan's RETURN OF THE KING on Vinyl Here: https://amzn.to/4qpGUT1

To celebrate the announcement, the band has share a new single and accompanying video, "Chase The Light", available below.

Grapow described the single as "a dark and aggressive track about fear, control, and a world that feeds on pain. It shows how power rises while compassion fades, trapping people in silence and despair. The song pushes through chaos and suffering toward release — a call to break free, heal old wounds, and reclaim your strength".

Grapow expressed his enthusiasm for MASTERPLAN's record — the band's first new songs since "Novum Initium", released in 2013. "Metalmorphosis" really captures what this album means to us: a transformation, but still true to the spirit of MASTERPLAN," he said. "We've grown over the ...

John Corabi EXPOSES The "Suits": Why I Refuse To Fit Into Your Music Boxes!

Is the music industry’s obsession with “genre boxes” actually strangling the soul of rock and roll? John Corabi joins the show to reveal why his new solo record, New Day, intentionally ignores every rule the “suits” tried to enforce. Why does one of rock’s most powerful vocalists prefer an acoustic guitar over a wall of Marshalls when crafting a hit, and what did he discover about the legendary Sly Stone that changed his perspective on songwriting forever? The answers inside might make you rethink everything you know about Corabi’s career from The Scream to Motley Crue.

DIRT TALK DUMBASS: The Rev Loses His Mind Over A Single Chat Room Comment!

Is this the most pathetic meltdown in the history of the internet? The Rev from Dirt Talk just had a total “puss” moment, huffing and puffing on air because a CMS cyber-terrorist called him a name in his chat room. Why is a guy with seven listeners begging Eddie Trunk to host a “rumble” he’s too scared to have face-to-face? You have to hear the heavy breathing and the pouting to believe that anyone this thin-skinned actually thinks they belong in real radio.

CMS CLASSIC: DON DOKKEN UNLEASHED: "The Rest of the Band Was Out of Their Minds on Coke!" 2008

Don Dokken just stepped into the line of fire, and he’s naming names. Think you knew why the classic Dokken lineup imploded at the height of their fame? You’ve been fed the mainstream corporate version for decades. Don finally stops the polite act and reveals the absolute degenerate chaos involving George Lynch and Jeff Pilson that made a reunion impossible.

Was Don the "difficult" one, or was he the only sober man in a room full of addicts? Why did he have to take Valium just to survive his own tour bus? Neeley and Chris dig into the grime of the 80s to find out if Dokken is finally back from the brink, or if the bridge is burned forever. You won't hear this version on a "sanitized" rock documentary—hit play to hear the raw, scorched-earth truth. This interview originally aired on 5/10/08.
