Daily Reload: Randy Blythe, System of a Down + More

Today on Daily Reload, we catch up with the latest on the Randy Blythe situation. The Lamb of God singer, now home from nearly a month in jail in the Czech Republic, offers his first public statement on the incident and his plans to clear his name.

Meanwhile, System of a Down drummer John Dolmayan is of the mindset of a lot of the band's fans in that while it's been great to tour, it might be time to record again. He offers a timeline of when he thinks the band might return to the studio.

Plus, we've got a new feature spotlighting the Best Band Logos, and a wealth of acts serving up new tour dates. Chevelle, Monster Magnet, Warbeast, and the AP Tour and Conquerors of the World Tour participants are all heading to stages across the country soon.
