Kiss did a song once with the lyrics, “I wanna rock n roll all night and party every dayâ€. As old withering men, we feel that partying on down with Zimmer frames and emptying their overflowing piss bags doesn’t count as fun.
Just like The Rolling Stones, Kiss are one of those bands who seem to have been around for ever and won’t disappear. Their records are slowly becoming heirloom for millions of families around the world as this dinosaur band's early recordings are passed down from grandmother to great granddaughter.
In the very beginning of Kiss’s existence, technology wasn’t much of a thing. The wheel had just been discovered and recording techniques were slowly being developed. Fast-forward a few million years and crazy Gene Simmons faces a problem for his band of nutty rockers. Blasted technology has bypassed the band and made it easy for followers of the archaic group to get a Kiss song for free.
This has angered chief Kiss man Gene Simmons wants to club anyone who has down this and stopped him from receiving his royalty payments of two sticks to rub together to generate heat for his homely cave.
So here's the final SLACKERJACK entry of my brief tenure at the top, and by golly is it a doozy. Warning Forever is another download-and-install jobby for you technophobes to be afraid of, but it's yet another one in the list of 'jesus H everything this is bloody brilliant'. One of the most addictive experiences you're ever likely to encounter, this is pure, all-out scorewhore fun.
In a manner not too dissimilar to that of Futurama's TV chef Elzar, we're going to take it up a notch here: BAM! The world of free games just welcomed a new son into its midst, one full of psychics, violence, a crap story and some of the best pure fun you can have in a game - Psi Ops is being given away for free. This, friends, is a wonderful thing.
It’s that time of the year again when music lovers gather in a field to celebrate the thing they love: live music.
There are all sorts of festivals to cater for all sorts of musical tastes in all four corners of the world. The main ones kick off at this time of year and hecklerspray is here to tell you all you need to know about each festival, who the essential people are to see and which act to avoid so you can queue up for the overflowing shit-filled portaloos.
As the sun sneaks out from behind one of his many clouds, the hot weather looks like it may arrive for one of the festivals that kick starts them all. Download is the chance for 75,000 people to gather together and rock out to leather clad men drenched in tattoos and piercings. Sounds like a bit ropey if you ask us.
Keeping with our new-found tradition (one day and counting!) of avoiding throwaway online flash games, here we present you with yet another decent-sized download for your gaming enjoyment. Battle for Wesnoth is a totally free, open source (meaning you can get the code for it and modify it yourself, if you have the time, patience and know-how. In other words: you can't) and feels very professionally made, even with its freebie status. Certainly something of a rarity in the world of gratis games.
How's about something a bit different for today's SLACKERJACK? So, you'll need to actually download something (a fair bit, actually), install it and spend more than four minutes playing it, but... well... it's Command and Conquer, for free, so shut up. The original from the multi-million selling series, released about a billion years ago and home to some wonderful video of hammy acting (hence the large file size), Command and Conquer essentially made real-time strategy games what they are today. It wasn't the first and it isn't the best, but it's damn good fun and how many times does EA give away their classic titles for free? Increasingly often, you say? Well, yes. But still.
Like the title suggests, yet another high profile band is giving its music away for free. Not because it's shit or anything, but purely down to the fact everyone else is doing so.
Sigur Ros creates some of the most amazing music known to

Hey everyone, Coldplay are back! Finally, drearily self-important, emotionally hollow stadium rock for people who don't like music has a voice again! To mark their return, Coldplay recently decided to release their new single Violet Hill as a free download. And apparently Violet Hill has now been downloaded by two million people eager to hear Coldplay's Spanish-influenced, Brian Eno-helmed new direction. Sadly there aren't any figures for how many people only listened to Violet Hill once, rolled their eyes because it's exactly the same as every other Coldplay song ever written and instantly deleted it from their iTunes library. We're guessing it's just a shade off two million.
