On Today’s Briefing (Monday, May 4, 2026): THE MOROTTI APOLOGY: Following a chaotic exit from Suffocation, drummer Eric Morotti issues a public apology for his "toxic" comments, expressing regret and wishing the band the best as he takes responsibility for how he handled the situation. PRIEST IS COOKING: Guitarist Richie Faulkner confirms that Judas Priest has already completed drum, bass, and rhythm guitar tracks for the follow-up to Invincible Shield. The band is using the organic, together-in-the-room "Firepower" recording method outside of Nashville. MUSTAINE RECLAIMS THE "LIGHTNING": Dave Mustaine explains his decision to include Megadeth’s version of Metallica’s "Ride The Lightning" on the final album. Mustaine claims the song showcases the techniques he invented, like the "spider chord," and that the new version is faster, more frantic, and features updated drum fills by Dirk Verbeuren. BRUCE KULICK RECOVERY: Former KISS guitarist Bruce Kulick shares a recovery update twelve days after undergoing planned heart valve surgery.
