In Brief: Linkin Park, Van Halen, Clutch, Filter

Linkin Park Video For "Breaking The Habit" Posted Online

Linkin Park's video for the track "Breaking The Habit" has made its way online and can be viewed by going to their official website. The video features some illustrations by the acclaimed anime illustrator/director Kazuto Nakazawa, whose work can be seen in "Kill Bill: Vol. 1". The song comes the band's album "Metora", which was released in March 2003.

Filter Frontman To Dedicate New Album To Fan

Filter frontman Richard Patrick has announced that he will be dedicating the band's new album in memory of Justin Eyerly, a fan of the band who was killed in action while serving in Iraq.

Patrick wrote the following message on the band's website:

"I was saddened to learn of the passing of Sgt. Justin Eyerly who was killed in action while serving his country in Iraq. My heart goes out to his family and friends. Although he was only 23 years old, Justin contributed a great deal to the Filter online community through the website he created and maintained since 1996. I was fortunate enough to have thanked him personally before his tour of duty. As a tribute to this courageous young man, whose passion for my music will not be forgotten, I will dedicate Filter’s upcoming album to his memory - Richard Patrick"

Van Halen Ticket Auction

When Van Halen hits the stage on Friday (6/11) to kick off its first tour with Sammy Hagar at the mic in almost a decade, some fans will find themselves right in the middle of the action.

The group's stage, which is designed to look like the band's swirling "VH" logo, features two standing-room-only pits that will corral a limited number of concertgoers. Tickets for the special seating area--which is dubbed the Golden Ring--are available for various stops on the outing via an online auction hosted by Ticketmaster.
