In the latest issue of RockRevolt Magazine, we included our first movie review for Detention of the Dead. With the movie coming out shortly (on demand on June 18th, and in select theaters on June 28th), we had to dig further and deeper. Per a post on the Detention of the Dead’s Facebook page, “Open PUS OOZING SORES and a LUST for fresh meat? YES!!!” With promises such as these, how could we NOT follow up with the film’s director, Alex Craig Mann? The film delivered sufficient gore filled morsels of horror to induce horror fanatic wet dreams; however, we wanted to know MORE about what was going on behind the camera and get to know who could deliver such succulent teenage zombie pleasure.
And a pleasure it was to speak to the affable Alex Craig Mann!

The final tour date of Killswitch Engage was bound to be messy: a royal bloodbath. It looked like it was going to be crazy from the moment Disarm the Descent hit the shelves, with rock fans flocking to hear what Jesse sounded like being back with Killswitch. What you hear on the album is nothing compared to what they sound like live.

Tom Keifer started out his solo tour almost two months before his debut solo album released on April 30, 2013. Read the review of the show that started it all for an artist & tour still going strong!

Anyone familiar with the play of Macbeth knows that the witches brewed poisoned entrails, toad venom, fillet of a fenny snake, eye of a newt and any other thing they can use to create a spell. Now, it seems that they’ve tried it again, and cocked up, thus creating The Bunny The Bear. This isn’t a bad thing – as a whole concoction of scream/clean vocals and party anthems, these are provided to make one hell of an album.

The name says it all for the Finnish quartet – an album potentially full of cliché horror punk lyrics, themes, music and just another band to laugh at for having a rather ludicrous name. However, take note that I used the word “potentially.” It could have happened, there’s no doubt about that, but having been to quite a few horror punk gigs myself, this album is something not to be laughed at and dismissed easily. Containing near pop punk before divulging into massive breakdowns, this is one of the best releases I’ve heard of this year so far.
