The journey into music videos (and other bits) continues its mission to deliver you something worthy of your time, perhaps introducing you to something new along the way.

This week I continue compiling videos and various musical related tidbits for your viewing pleasure. Some will be brand spanking new, while others will just be things I like. I am not great with timeliness, but I hope you've been enjoying these video collections.

Yngwie Malmsteen - Live Footage

This footage was recorded a few years ago, I believe it was 2004, and has been posted by Bay Area Backstage in honor of Malmsteen's induction into Hollywood's RockWalk, set for October 13th. Love him or hate him, he is definitely a character and certainly knows his way around an axe. He has never been my favorite guitarist, but he is a blast to watch.

Static X - Cannibal Killers Live DVD Art, Trailer, Track List

I cannot say I have followed these guys terribly closely over the years, but I have always liked their music. It is heavy, tight, and relatively unique sounding, and killer live. Wayne Static has dubbed their music as "evil disco" and that sounds about right. They are on the verge of their first DVD release, featuring a seventeen song set list, plus their videos, and a rare concert from 1997, this looks like a nice package.

Enthrallment - "Cane the Messiah with the Crook"

Brutal death metal from Bulgaria, this song is certainly brutal. I just have to make up my mind if that is a good thing. I certainly can get behind the heaviness of the music, but the vocalist looks seriously constipated. The song comes from their forthcoming album, Immerse into Bloody Bliss. Not sure I like it enough to seek out more.

Michael Monroe - "Pirates of the Baltic Sea"

Remember Michael Monroe? The frontman for 80's era rockers Hanoi Rocks teamed up with members of The 69 Eyes, Backyard Babies,and Warrior Soul to create this video to help raise awareness of the movement to save the Baltic Sea. The Baltic is the most polluted sea in the world and the song has been made in conjunction with a new environmentally themed series that will be airing on Finnish television. The song may have a serious message to it, but it is rather goofy.

[Malmsteen]has never been my favorite guitarist

That's alright Chris... Someday the Metal Community may forgive you for this blasphemy! *Smirk*

Seriously, have you seen the footage on youtube of Malmsteen w/Tim Owens. This new album is gonna be sick & Mr. Ripper does a freakin killer job on the classics!
