Last week's lusty entry in Uber Rock's erotic Album Cover Of The Week feature drove the metal boys crazy. The sex symbol featured did call me and everything looked good - it was on like Donkey Kong. Then she asked me who was gonna be featured this week and, well, she just couldn't handle the competition from a Canadian love rival.....

Some of the classic cover art featured in Uber Rock's Album Cover Of The Week feature scares, some inspires, some angers, some humours - today's excites. It titillates. Wherever the vixen featured on this week's cover is right now, whatever she is doing, call me.....

How foolish of this bunch of Christian metallers. How foolish that they think that they can forget about the original cover of their album? That they can re-release it with a different cover and act like the original, like the dinosaurs, never happened. Uber Rock's unforgiving Album Cover Of The Week feature, thank the good lord, does not forget.....

A conversation past the witching hour of one of the crazed days of this past weekend saw Uber Rock conversing with a couple of Scutty Neighbours regarding the high quality of a certain legendary metal band. It would be rude to not feature said band in Week 61 of Uber Rock's shameless Album Cover Of The Week feature, wouldn't it?.....

As our now-fabled Album Cover Of The Week series hits double figures what better way to celebrate than by giving all the hot-blooded male Über Röckers a foxy young lady to salivate over? It may not be politically correct but sometimes you just have to give the fellas what they want......

 When is an album review not an album review, and an interview not really an interview? Well, when we're talking a band like Tesla we like to do something different for our friends from Sacramento, go the extra yard so to speak. And with many an uber fan of the band here at URHQ we gave Rob Watkins the task of covering their latest venture into the realms of acoustic music whilst Attila Timar got to share some words with the band's bassist Brian Wheat.

 Not wanting to be like that dirty journo who told everyone that Black Sabbath were reforming....when they weren't, our man Craggy visited Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery to see the Home Of Metal exhibition and only wants to distribute facts - cold, hard facts. What's that? Led Zeppelin to reform with Cronos on vocals? Read on for Craggy's critique....

Last week's monumental (emphasis on the latter) classic album art was one purely for the gents. This week we show that we are 90's men by showcasing something for the ladies. Be warned girls, this album cover will make your rabbit feel like a maggot......

 Good evening. He comes from Gwent, in case you couldn't tell, his given name is Johnny and he comes from Abertillery, and he's doing very well. H-Bomb couldn't be more obscener, as he reviews the new 'Rare And Unseen' DVD from Ian Dury.
