Bill Corgan has been in the news lately more for who he hangs out with than his music. The trend now continues….Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan may have lots of love for rumored romantic partner Jessica Simpson, but he has little to spare for former friend and collaborator Courtney Love. Although Corgan worked on songs with Love for the upcoming album from her revived band Hole, he does not want those tracks to see the light of day. Corgan told Rolling Stone, “It would be a real big problem, because I haven’t given my permission.”

Corgan, who at some point severed his ties with Love completely, added, “I have no interest in supporting her in any way, shape or form. You can’t throw enough things down the abyss with a person like that.”

Corgan and Love were rumored to have dated at one point years ago and Corgan also co-wrote five songs on Hole’s last album, 1998’s Celebrity Skin.

The new Hole record, Nobody’s Daughter, is due out on April 27th. Corgan and the Pumpkins are working on a 44-song album called Kaleidyscope By Teargarden.

The cash cow continues for Gene and Paul. Kiss is partnering with E1 Entertainment in Canada to produce and all new comedic TV series, according to The Canadian Press. Both Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley will serve as executive producers on the project. Stanley said in a press statement, “Coupling E1’s successes and ingenuity with the global force of Kiss guarantees an express pass into the homes of our youngest Kiss Army members with a show of superior quality.”

There’s been no title, plot line, or premiere date announced for the new Kiss TV show.

Kiss kicks off its next series of dates on May 1st in Sheffield, England.

Foo Fighters will begin recording their seventh studio album in September, frontman Dave Grohl told RollingStone.com at the Independent Spirit Awards in Los Angeles on Friday night (March 5th). Grohl said, “Me and (Foos drummer) Taylor (Hawkins) have already started demoing songs,” adding, “I think this could be our heaviest album yet.” Grohl also revealed that the record will be produced by Butch Vig, partially in honor of the 20th anniversary of Nirvana’s classic 1991 album Nevermind, which Vig also produced and on which Grohl debuted as that band’s drummer.

A benefit album compiled in 1995 but never released, featuring rare, unreleased and live tracks from Rage Against The Machine, the Beastie Boys, Josh Homme, Helmet, Corrosion Of Conformity and others, has surfaced online. The record, called Exiled In The Land Of The Free, was aimed at raising legal defense funds for convicted murderer Leonard Peltier, who supporters allege was wrongly imprisoned for the 1975 killing of two FBI agents. According to Pitchfork Media, a former employee of Columbia Records, which was supposed to distribute the album, has made the tracks available online after finding them in some old files.

The anonymous employee wrote, “I apologize for the release of these materials without getting anyone’s approval. But I believe the cause needs to be heard and I trust you will remember why you chose to take place in this benefit 16 years past.”

Peltier, a former member of the American Indian Movement, is serving two consecutive life sentences for the killings, which occurred during a shoot-out between FBI agents and members of the American Indian Movement on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota.

Tracks on the compilation include a live version of “Wake Up” by Rage Against The Machine, a demo version of the Queens Of The Stone Age track “If Only” by Homme, and a duet between Corrosion Of Conformity and Rage frontman Zack de la Rocha on “The Punchline.” Other featured artists include Quicksand, Chavez, Superchunk, Bad Religion, Mike Watt and more.
