Take a listen to two songs from Rob Zombie’s ‘The Munsters’ soundtrack

Two tracks from Rob Zombie’s upcoming The Munsters movie have been released, called “It’s Zombo (The Zombo Theme)” and “The House of Zombo.”

The two tunes are already available on the It’s Zombo! 12″ single from Waxwork Records; the full soundtrack arrives in September. Zombie’s The Munsters comes to home video (digital, Blu-ray and DVD) on Sept. 27, and will then stream on Netflix.

Zombo is a character from the original The Munsters TV sitcom from the 1960s, which follows the fictional lives of the Frankenstein-like Herman Munster, his vampiric wife, Lily, her grandfather, their niece, Marilyn, and the couple’s werewolf son, Eddie. Zombie’s “Dragula” was named after a vehicle from the show.

Check out the two new tracks – here.

Metallica release animated lyric video for “Master Of Puppets”

36 years after its release, Metallica have finally shared the music video for the title track to their 1986 Master of Puppets album. The animated lyric video was created by UK design agency ILOVEDUST, which helped in creating Ozzy Osbourne’s Patient Number 9 artwork and worked with the Foo Fighters for their Studio 666 movie.

Master of Puppets has received major attention lately, thanks to its inclusion in the Season 4 finale of the Netflix mega-hit series Stranger Things.  Metallica had previously released live performances of Master of Puppets, but this is the first official video released from their first three albums spanning 1983-1986. The group’s first-ever video was issued in 1988 for “One” which appears on …And Justice For All.

The signature song from the band jumped from 47-23 in its first appearance in the UK Top 40 more than three decades after its initial release. The song also climbed up the Billboard charts dated July 16, making its first appearance on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100 at No. 40 and marking the bands’ first time on the chart since “The Day That Never Comes” wrapped its run in November 2008, after reaching No. 31 that September.

QUEENSRŸCHE release official video for their new single ‘Forest’

QUEENSRŸCHE have released the music video for their new track “Forest” from their upcoming album, “Digital Noise Alliance“, which arrives on October 7th.

QUEENSRŸCHE said of the track: “The ballad of the album, ‘Forest’ embodies the sorrow of losing a loved one, trying to cope with such a profound loss, while occasionally feeling that person’s presence around you and asking for a sign. It is a topic very relatable to people, as we will all at some point experience the great loss of a parent, child, sibling, spouse, or dear friend.”

Following the release of “Digital Noise Alliance“, QUEENSRŸCHE will hit the road to open for JUDAS PRIEST on their “50 Heavy Metal Years” tour.   Check out the official video for “Forest” – here.

Red Hot Chili Peppers to release second LP this year ‘Return of the Dream Canteen’

Red Hot Chili Peppers have announced their second album of the year, Return of the Dream Canteen, will be released on Oct. 14 via Warner Records.  Produced by Rick Rubin, the forthcoming LP comes just six months after the band’s ‘Unlimited Love’ was released (also produced by Rubin.).  Return of the Dream Canteen can be pre-ordered here.

The band wrote in a statement posted to their website“We went in search of ourselves as the band that we have somehow always been. Just for the fun of it we jammed and learned some old songs. Before long we started the mysterious process of building new songs. A beautiful bit of chemistry meddling that had befriended us hundreds of times along the way. Once we found that slip stream of sound and vision, we just kept mining. With time turned into an elastic waist band of oversized underwear, we had no reason to stop writing and rocking. It felt like a dream. When all was said and done, our moody love for each other and the magic of music had gifted us with more songs than we knew what to do with. Well we figured it out. Two double albums released back to back. The second of which is easily as meaningful as the first or should that be reversed. Return of the Dream Canteen is everything we are and ever dreamed of being. It’s packed. Made with the blood of our hearts, yours truly, the Red Hot Chili Peppers.”

Red Hot Chili Peppers are also currently on tour across North America, featuring special guests Thundercat, Haim, Beck, the Strokes and King Princess.

U2, George Clooney, Gladys Knight are among the 2022 Kennedy Center Honorees

The recipients of the 45th Kennedy Center Honors have been announced, with performing artists recognized for their lifetime contributions to American culture.

The list of honorees include four Irish musicians you may know best as the rock band U2; as well as actor and filmmaker George Clooney; contemporary Christian and pop singer Amy Grant; venerable gospel, soul and R&B star Gladys Knight; Pulitzer Prize-winning composer, and conductor and educator Tania León.

In a statement, bandmates Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr. said they consider America a home away from home: “In December 1980, we made our first trip across the Atlantic to America. We had big dreams then, fueled in part by the commonly held belief at home that America smiles on Ireland. And it turned out to be true, yet again. But even in the wilder thoughts, we never imagined that 40 years on, we would be invited back to receive one of the nation’s greatest honors. It has been a four-decade love affair with the country and its people, its artists, and culture.”

The Honors are designed to raise money for the Kennedy Center as well as recognize talent. The annual ceremony is slated for Dec. 4, to be broadcast later on CBS and streamed on Paramount +.
