Blackest Of The Black Festival – Silverado, California
As the earth shook and the ground parted, so did the gates to another world open, spewing forth demons of the Blackest of the Black. Bands, fans, vendors and the occasional celebrity descended upon Oak Canyon Park—a quaint little camping spot nestled in the hills of Silverado, California—for the Blackest of the Black Festival. This gathering of the depraved and debauched was the brainchild of none other than Jersey native and trailblazer of horror punk and doom-goth-metal, Glenn Danzig. Opening day of the festival coincided with the release of Danzig’s new album, Black Laden Crown (Nuclear Blast Records), his follow-up to 2015’s Skeletons. Continue reading

Janes Addiction Guitarist Creates The Strap via The Stockroom
Janes Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro has teamed up with The Stockroom to create a signature line of exclusive products. It includes:
- “The Strap” – unique guitar strap design, combining the functionality of a guitar strap, BDSM restraints, a wearable belt, and locking collar.
“When The Stockroom first approached me to do a signature line, I was truly honored,” said Navarro in a press release. “I have been a customer and a fan of the company for years.
“Fetish lifestyle and fashion have inspired me since the early days of JANE’S ADDICTION and the community will forever have a special place in my life.“I worked very closely with the team at The Stockroom and have come up with a few pieces that marry both aspects that are important to me, customer aesthetic and usability.”
The Strap is available for immediate sale and the first 500 straps will be signed by Dave. The remainder of the product line is set to officially debut in the New Year. Included in the line will be Dave Navarro’s infamous custom-made black latex performance pants, dubbed Dave Navarro’s Black Latex Jeans. Dave’s Jeans feature a 2″ lower waistline and more slim-fitted legs than other men’s pants from The Stockroom’s latex brand Syren Couture — a fit and silhouette that Dave has custom-ordered for years. Striking black latex Blazers will also be offered in three designs.
Additionally, the line will include Black Gloves with heavy steel zippers, and Latex Gauntlets. All five pieces in the collection are made by hand by the artisan staff at The Stockroom’s Los Angeles facility on West Sunset Blvd in Silverlake and were designed with Dave.
Dave wears all pieces of the line regularly, and with pride.
Dave will debut a very unique version of The Blazer on the finale of “Ink Master” on the Spike network Tuesday, December 16 at 10 p.m. EST.
