The rejected working titles of 20 famous rock albums:, metallica – ‘metal up your ass’ (final title: ‘kill ‘em all’).
Metallica's seminal debut album 'Kill 'Em All' from 1983 was originally set to be called 'Metal Up Your Ass' and featured artwork of a hand clutching a dagger emerging from a toilet bowl. The band changed it to 'Kill 'Em All' upon the advice of late Megaforce Records founder Jon Zazula who was rightfully worried that distributors may refuse to stock the album. Metallica did later release a 'Metal Up Your Ass' T-shirt containing the proposed artwork, and a 1982 bootleg recording of Metallica's show at the Old Waldorf also featured the sleeve.
Metallica's rejected 'Metal Up Your Ass' artwork and album title. Fan sites claims that late-great bassist Cliff Burton renamed the album when out of anger, he said, "I hate the managers. Let's just Kill 'Em All".
Iron Maiden – ‘Food for Thought’ (final title: ‘Piece of Mind’)
Iron Maiden initially called their fourth studio album 'Food for Thought' after the heavy metal legends opted to include a lobotomised Eddie on the sleeve. However, when Maiden decamped to Jersey to write songs for the 1983 record, they changed the title to 'Piece of Mind' during a boozy session in the pub.
Red Hot Chili Peppers – ‘Dr Johnny Skinz's Disproportionately Rambunctious Polar Express Machine-head’ (final title: ‘I’m With You’)
Easily the most jaw-dropping working title on our list, Red Hot Chili Peppers took inspiration for the 'Dr Johnny Skinz's Disproportionately Rambunctious Polar Express Machine-head' album moniker from an acid trip one of Anthony Kiedis' friends had. Kiedis told Spin: "(My friend) was reminiscing about one of his legendary acid trips and told us that he had been playing a sold-out show to the planets and moons, and his Number One hit was, well, that title." Red Hot Chili Peppers sadly ditched the title and called their 2011 album 'I'm With You.' Boo!
Pixies – ‘Whore’ (final title: ‘Doolittle’)
In keeping with many of the biblical themes embraced on Pixies' second studio album, Black Francis initially called it 'Whore' in reference to the Whore of Babylon. The song 'Hey' also features the lyrics "Must be a devil between us / Or whores in my head / Whores at the door / Whore in my bed." In the end, Pixies called their 1989 album 'Doolittle.'
Pink Floyd – ‘Eclipse’ (final title: ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’)
Pink Floyd had always wanted to call their 1973 magnum opus 'The Dark Side of the Moon', however they were forced into a rethink when they discovered that blues rock band Medicine Head had called their third album 'Dark Side of the Moon' a year earlier. The title was temporarily change to 'Eclipse'; however Pink Floyd ditched the title once they discovered that Medicine Head's album was a commercial flop. Pink Floyd's 'The Dark Side of the Moon' went on to become one of the best-selling albums of all time.
Green Day – ‘Liquid Dookie’ (final title: ‘Dookie’)
Inspired by their poor diets on tour that led them to get bouts of diarrhoea, pop punk stalwarts Green Day initially wanted to call their third studio album 'Liquid Dookie.' "We had a faecal fascination in those years," admitted drummer Tré Cool. The title was deemed "too gross" by their label Reprise and trio settled on a shortened 'Dookie' for their 1993 tour-de-force.
KISS – ‘Who Dares Wins’ (final title: ‘Crazy Nights’)
Late drummer Eric Carr came up with the idea to call KISS's 14th album 'Who Dares Wins' after seeing the slogan on a piece of clothing. "During a photo session, our wardrobe girl had this commando patch lying around with 'Who Dares Wins' on it, and I said, 'Hey, what a great idea for an album title!'," Carr said. "Then she brought it over to Paul (Stanley) who said the same thing. We ended up not using it because it didn't look good in print, and it sounded as if no one would understand it." Despite KISS ditching the title for 'Crazy Nights', 'Who Dares Wins' featured in some Japanese advertisements for the record.
Fleetwood Mac – ‘Yesterday’s Gone’ (final title: ‘Rumours’)
While recording their 11th studio album at the Record Plant in Sausalito, California back in 1976, Fleetwood Mac gave it the title 'Yesterday's Gone' from the lyrics to their future single 'Don't Stop.' John McVie came up with the final 'Rumours' title as he felt the respective Fleetwood Mac band members were writing "journals and diaries" about each other through the music.
U2 – ‘The Two Americas’ (final title: ‘The Joshua Tree’)
With many of the lyrics contrasting antipathy towards the politics of the United States with the band's deep fascination with the vast country, U2 frontman and lyricist Bono initially wanted to call the band's fifth album 'The Two Americas'. He said, "I started to see two Americas, the mythic America and the real America." Another working title was 'The Desert Songs', however it was changed to 'The Joshua Tree' when U2 decamped to the Mojave Desert with photographer Anton Corbijn to shoot some images for the sleeve. Corbijn suggested the title and Bono was suitably impressed when he read up about Joshua trees' (Yucca brevifolia) links to Mormon legend.
The Clash – ‘Last Testament’ (final title: ‘London Calling’)
According to Billboard, The Clash were going to call their third album 'Last Testament' in keeping with the notion that the double LP would close a chapter in music history that had begun with Elvis Presley's RCA debut in 1956. Although the working title was ditched in favour of 'London Calling', The Clash directly parodied the design for the 'Elvis Presley' sleeve on their album cover. Instead of Elvis it featured the iconic Pennie Smith photograph of bassist Paul Simonon smashing his Fender Precision Bass on stage in New York in September 1979.
David Bowie – ‘New Music: Night and Day’ (final title: ‘Low’)
David Bowie called his experimental 11th studio album 'New Music: Night And Day' and it still had the title when Bowie's schoolfriend George Underwood commenced work on the album artwork. Bowie changed the title to 'Low' at the eleventh hour and the album was already mentioned in various forthcoming release lists for January 1977 as 'New Music: Night And Day.' The labels on some international cassette editions of 'Low' also featured the 'New Music: Night and Day' title on the cassette sticker but the final title on the sleeve.
Led Zeppelin – ‘Thanksgiving’ (final title: ‘Presence’)
Led Zeppelin completed work on their seventh album on 26th November 1975, the day before Thanksgiving, leading Robert Plant to suggest naming it after the American holiday. The idea was quickly abandoned. Designer Aubrey Powell suggest the title 'Obelisk' in reference to the mysterious black object on the record sleeve, however the band opted for 'Presence' instead. Jimmy Page explains: "The record-jacket designer said 'When I think of the group, I always think of power and force. There's a definite presence there.' That was it. He wanted to call it 'Obelisk'. To me, it was more important what was behind the obelisk."
The Who – ‘Deaf, Dumb and Blind Boy’ (final title ‘Tommy’)
In keeping with the story of Tommy Walker, The Who wanted to call their upcoming rock opera album 'Deaf, Dumb and Blind Boy'. Pete Townshend said in 1968: "The package I hope is going to be called 'Deaf, Dumb and Blind Boy' is a story about a kid that's born deaf, dumb and blind and what happens to him throughout his life ... But what it's really all about is the fact that ... he's seeing things basically as vibrations which we translate as music." When the album was released in 1969, they settled on Tommy Walker's first name 'Tommy' for its title.
Queen – ‘The Invisible Men’ (final title: ‘The Miracle’)
Queen's 13th studio album was all set to be called 'The Invisible Men' after the song 'The Invisible Man', however drummer Roger Taylor says that just three weeks prior to release they changed it to 'The Miracle.'
Bon Jovi - ‘Sons of Beaches’ (final title: ‘New Jersey’)
After achieving global success with their blockbuster third album 'Slippery When Wet', Bon Jovi commenced work on the follow-up in early 1988 under the working title of 'Sons of Beaches'. It's lifted from the lines " I can see those sons of beaches / With the surf and the sand and they're living it up" from penultimate album song '99 in the Shade.' It was eventually ditched in favour of 'New Jersey' in homage to Bon Jovi's home state.
Nirvana – ‘I Hate Myself And I Want To Die’ (final title: ‘In Utero’)
Now reluctant global rock icons thanks to the surprise success of 'Nevermind', Kurt Cobain wanted to call Nirvana's third album 'I Hate Myself And I Want To Die.' The title was based on Cobain's standard reply whenever someone asked him how he was doing and was intended as a joke. Bassist Krist Novoselic talked Cobain out of the idea and Nirvana adopted a new title 'Verse Chorus Verse' before settling on 'In Utero', which was lifted from a line in one of Courtney Love's poems.
Sex Pistols – ‘God Save the Sex Pistols’ (final title: ‘Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols’)
Sex Pistols were originally going to give their only studio album the relatively tame title of 'God Save the Sex Pistols'; a play on the title of their anti-monarchy anthem 'God Save the Sex Pistols.' At Steve Jones' suggestion, album name was changed to the more anarchic 'Never Mind the Bollocks…' after Jones heard two fans using the phrase. John Lydon said it was a working classic expression meaning to "stop talking rubbish."
The Rolling Stones - ‘Automatic Changer’ (final title: ‘Let It Bleed’)
The artwork to The Rolling Stones' eighth studio album, which depicts a surreal sculpture of a phonograph designed by Robert Brownjohn and a cake made my Delia Smith, was inspired by the working title 'Automatic Changer'. The 'Let It Bleed' title reportedly came from when Keith Richards' fingers were bleeding while recording the album. Refusing to stop playing his guitar, Keith apparently said "let it bleed."
David Bowie – ‘Shilling the Rubes’ (final title: ‘Young Americans’)
Seemingly unable to choose a suitable name for his ninth studio album, David Bowie gave it a number of working titles including 'Dancin', 'Somebody Up There Likes Me', 'One Damned Song', 'The Gouster', 'Fascination' and the somewhat bizarre 'Shilling the Rubes.' He eventually called it 'Young Americans' in keeping with his blue-eyed soul anthem of the same name, which opened the record.
Nirvana – ‘Sheep’ (final title: ‘Nevermind’)
Kurt Cobain initially called Nirvana's second album 'Sheep' in an apparent dig at the flocks of people who might buy the record. He even poked fun at the title in his journal, writing: "Because you want to not; because everyone else is." They eventually settle on the deliberately misspelt title 'Nevermind' as it was a metaphor for Cobain's attitude on life.

Rival Sons Add UK Headline Dates To European Summer Festival Shows
Rival Sons will return to England this summer for two headline shows in addition to their extensive summer run of festivals and their ZZ Top Wembley support. Rival Sons will play the following shows:
SUNDAY June 9th 2024: Oxford O2 Academy, UK MONDAY June 10th 2024: Northampton Roadmender, UK
Guitarist Scott Holiday (a.k.a. Mr. Fuzzlord) states: “We always try to get back to the U.K. whenever we can. Being the place that we first broke out of, it’s very close to our hearts…so we’re pleased to be able to squeeze two U.K. headline shows in this year! We’ll be playing songs from across our catalogue, including last year’s two releases Lightbringer and Darkfighter. We may even throw a couple extra from Head Down as we’re celebrating its 10th anniversary! Looking very forward to celebrating with you all! Get your tickets, these two shows will probably sell out quick!”
Rival Sons will then return to the U.K. in July. “We couldn’t possibly be more honoured to support ZZ Top at Wembley in July!” Scott continues “I grew up with ZZ Top as a staple in my home …and cut my teeth on those records as a young budding guitar player. Gibbons is on my short list of greatest! We’re gonna have fun with it!”
Last year (2023) the Double Grammy-nominated band released two albums Darkfighter and Lightbringer [Low Country Sound/Atlantic Records]. These two records built on Rival Sons legacy of stellar song writing that has always put them ahead of the curve.
“ Darkfighter is a new Rival Sons, and Lightbringer is the clear definition of what we are now,” states Jay Buchanan, Rival Sons frontman. “We broke ground on Darkfighter , but Lightbringer is a step beyond the personal innovation and exploration. It goes a little further. We really took everything into our own hands and pushed to see how far we could go. It was a self-exploration to see who we were and who we’ll be now. We had more friction and compromise than ever, because we isolated the bare essence of where we needed to go—and then we went there.”

Last week, Rival Sons released the third visual instalment in their narrative series of videos that have accompanied new music from the forthcoming Darkfighter album. The series tells the story of a double-cross and a heist gone wrong and stars the band themselves as a gang of crooks. It’s a caper that results in explosive consequences. Jay Buchanan as Preacher throws dynamite verse in the “Nobody Wants To Die” video, the first single from Darkfighter , from their own vintage cars; (Scott’s own 1956 Pontiac Chieftain and Jay’s 1982 Mercedes 300SD) while stunt-driving across the California dessert. In the latest video for new hit single “Bird In The Hand” the explosive consequences are contextualised with the video adding another vignette to the trilogy. With a large dose of humour and a devil-may-care attitude, “Bird In The Hand”, directed by Kurt Kubicek, and written by Jay Buchanan and Scott Holiday, is a prequel for the deadly single, “Nobody Wants To Die” (dir. Eli Sokhn) and “Rapture” (dir. Kurt Kubicek), both streaming now at the official Rival Sons YouTube channel.
Jay Buchanan comments:
It’s been a great time writing and producing these videos along with great directors and crew. With video production we’re really at that sweet spot where we don’t know the rules so we’re not afraid of breaking them. We’ll see where it goes from here.
Darkfighter (out June 2nd) will be accompanied by companion volume, Lightbringer, arriving later this year. Both produced by long-time collaborator and 8x GRAMMY® Award-winner Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell). The two new LPs marks the first new music from Rival Sons in more than four years, following 2019’s critically acclaimed, GRAMMY® Award-nominated sixth studio album, Feral Roots .

Discussing the albums, Buchanan comments:
In comparison to our previous records, we certainly took our time both writing and recording this collection. When we set out, the intention was mostly to dig as deep as possible. Even in the beginning before the body had formed, we agreed to throw the map away and chop our way through the woods to make a new path. Then lockdown hit and it felt like the whole damn country decided to throw the map away too. For myself, 2022 was like an eight-stage rocket of life changing events, so every time I thought I was finished writing, a new bull would come tearing through the clothesline and I’d have to illustrate it in some way. By the end, there were really two different sides to the same story being told. On one side, you’re fighting the darkness and, on the other, you’re bringing your own light to where there is none. One side in a corner, on the ropes, and the other advancing, cleaning the ring. Without an intermission, a refractory period, the collection would be too big a bite, so splitting it in two was the only way to do it.

We’re finally able to come back to you and bring you NEW music! Music that has been firmly situated in our hearts. Nothing makes me happier than to think about experiencing these albums together and making them into something entirely new and different every night. Let’s make something symbiotic, alive, that we’ll want to remember forever!”

Full UK/ European tour dates below.
Bird In The Hand
Last week, Rival Sons released the third visual instalment in their narrative series of videos that have accompanied new music from the forthcoming DARKFIGHTER album. The series tells the story of a double-cross and a heist gone wrong and stars the band themselves as a gang of crooks. It’s a caper that results in explosive consequences.
Jay Buchanan as Preacher throws dynamite verse in the Nobody Wants To Die video, the first single from DARKFIGHTER , from their own vintage cars; (Scott’s own 1956 Pontiac Chieftain and Jay’s 1982 Mercedes 300SD) while stunt-driving across the California dessert. In the latest video for new hit single Bird In The Hand the explosive consequences are contextualised with the video adding another vignette to the trilogy.
With a large dose of humour and a devil-may-care attitude Bird In The Hand , directed by Kurt Kubicek, and written by Jay Buchanan and Scott Holiday, is a prequel for the deadly single, “ Nobody Wants To Die “ (dir. Eli Sokhn) and “ Rapture “ (dir. Kurt Kubicek), both streaming now at the official Rival Sons YouTube channel HERE .
Jay Buchanan comments: “ It’s been a great time writing and producing these videos along with great directors and crew. With video production we’re really at that sweet spot where we don’t know the rules so we’re not afraid of breaking them. We’ll see where it goes from here.”
“Nobody Wants To Die” was hailed by Rolling Stone as “ hard-charging, ” adding “ The video has Kill Bill grindhouse vibes for days and is a literal blast. ” “ It would be cliché to say it’s been worth the wait, ” wrote Guitar World , “ but the phrase applies: ‘Nobody Wants to Die’ has enough high-gain riffage and classic rock fretboard throwdowns to more than make up for Rival Sons’ absence. “
Rival Sons and The Smashing Pumpkins
Rival Sons forthcoming new album DARKFIGHTER will be released June 2 nd via Elektra/Low Country Sound (Parlophone in UK/Warner across Europe). Rival Sons will mark the arrival of DARKFIGHTER with a truly epic live schedule, embarking on their own extensive North American headline run, “The DARKFIGHTER Tour,” beginning May 11 at Oklahoma City, OK’s Diamond Ballroom and then traveling through mid-June. Special guests throughout include The Black Angels and The Record Company, with Starcrawler also appearing on select dates.
The band will then play a special guest run on Smashing Pumpkins’ “The World Is a Vampire” Summer 2023 North American Tour, also featuring Stone Temple Pilots and Interpol, getting underway August 1 at Salt Lake City, UT’s USANA Amphitheatre and then continuing through early September. Tickets for all announced dates are on sale now. For compete details and ticket information, please visit www.rivalsons.com .
DARKFIGHTER and LIGHTBRINGER
DARKFIGHTER (out June 2 nd ) will be accompanied by companion volume, LIGHTBRINGER, arriving later this year. Both produced by long-time collaborator and 8x GRAMMY® Award-winner Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell). The two new LPs marks the first new music from Rival Sons in more than four years, following 2019’s critically acclaimed, GRAMMY® Award-nominated sixth studio album, FERAL ROOTS .
“ In comparison to our previous records, we certainly took our time both writing and recording this collection, ” says Rival Sons vocalist Jay Buchanan. “ When we set out, the intention was mostly to dig as deep as possible. Even in the beginning before the body had formed, we agreed to throw the map away and chop our way through the woods to make a new path.
Then lockdown hit and it felt like the whole damn country decided to throw the map away too. For myself, 2022 was like an eight-stage rocket of life changing events, so every time I thought I was finished writing, a new bull would come tearing through the clothesline and I’d have to illustrate it in some way.
By the end, there were really two different sides to the same story being told. On one side, you’re fighting the darkness and, on the other, you’re bringing your own light to where there is none. One side in a corner, on the ropes, and the other advancing, cleaning the ring. Without an intermission, a refractory period, the collection would be too big a bite, so splitting it in two was the only way to do it.
Rival Sons play rock ‘n’ roll in its purest form without apology or pretence. Instead, they simply plug in, turn up, and rip on a path of their own. Along the way, they’ve architected a critically acclaimed catalogue, including PRESSURE & TIME (2011), HEAD DOWN (2012), GREAT WESTERN VALKYRIE (2014), HOLLOW BONES (2016), and FERAL ROOTS (2019).
Highlighted by the chart-topping lead single, “Do Your Worst,” the latter album stands tall as a creative and critical high watermark for Rival Sons, scoring a GRAMMY® Award nomination for “Best Rock Album,” with the standout track, “Too Bad” receiving a nod in the “Best Rock Performance” category. In addition, the album’s lead single, “Do Your Worst,” proved the band’s biggest hit to date, ascending to #1 at Rock radio outlets nationwide while tallying north of 60M streams and counting.
Hailed as an electrifying, well-honed live act, Rival Sons have played countless headline shows, shared stages with everyone from Black Sabbath, The Rolling Stones, and AC/DC to Guns N’ Roses and Lenny Kravitz and made high-profile late-night TV appearances including CBS’ The Late Late Show with James Corden . In 2021, the band launched their own label, Sacred Tongue Recordings distributed by Thirty Tigers.
That same year saw Rival Sons celebrate the 10 th anniversary of 2011’s PRESSURE AND TIME , by performing the landmark LP live in its entirety for the first time ever on the sold out “Pressure and Time Tour.” The band also presented a very special two-night livestream event, Pair Of Aces , which saw them performing 2009’s debut album, BEFORE THE FIRE , and 2010’s self-titled RIVAL SONS EP in their entirety live from the historic Catalina Casino on Santa Catalina Island off the coast of California.
Rival Sons is: Jay Buchanan (vocals, harmonica, rhythm guitar), Scott Holiday (lead guitar), Mike Miley (drums), and Dave Beste (bass).
