Former sigh Limp Bizkit guitarist Wes Borland is vexing, friends. From some angles, he's an annoying no-talent in a bear suit or some shit. Yet there are times when I think it's just as possible that Borland is a cool, adventurous musician whose work in all honesty might not actually exist; that's how little he even registers on the Hoom!ometer (said like thermometer not smell-o-vision). So who knows? But check out how he sticks it in everybody's face just weeks after sigh joining Marilyn Manson's band; Borland talks about his band Black Light Burns via Blabbermouth:
That's right. Although there will be songs played off Cruel Melody and Cover Your Heart, this tour is going to be primarily used as a proving ground for the new shit. One of the new songs will be released at the beginning of next year on an upcoming soundtrack (more on that later) and we'll be playing that as well. It's been a long time and this band is far from over. We're all looking forward to hanging out and having a few laughs and drinks with some familiar faces as well! These shows are going to go off!
While that's kinda Billy Corgan ("You'll listen to whatEVer I PLAY! SWINE!") to load a setlist with mostly unheard, unproven shit, Borland is cool enough or dumb enough to tell everybody up front. Cuz that pisses people off when bands haul off and play 90 minutes of new songs without warning. Even knowing in advance sucks cuz it's way more fun to be surprised by the opening notes of each song. Shit have you ever seen guys starting screaming really scarily at the band to stop playing new shit? Then other, drunker guys yell at the screaming guys to shut the motherfuck UP and ugh you're in a riot fucking again. Rock on, Wes!
