Combichrist news

In addition to being added to the previously announced NYC show at Madison Square Garden on December 11th, Combichrist has been tapped to support Rammstein on Dec. 9th at Montreal’s Bell Centre (1260 De la Gauchetière West, Montreal, QC). Since both bands had toured Europe for four months earlier this year, Rammstein has invited Combichrist to reclaim the energy from those shows for North America.

To make these two very dates even more special, Wes Borland (Limp Bizkit, Black Light Burns) will be joining Combichrist on stage for both shows.

Making Monsters was released on September 28, 2010 via Metropolis Records.

SUNS offers debut for free download

Chicago’s SUNS are offering up their debut for free download. The band’s first release is the double EP entitled Close Calls in the U.S. Space Program / The Howl and the Many. A solid band of six, including everything from guitar, mandolin, banjo and bass to synth, glockenspiel and dual drummers, SUNS’ progressive indie rock is truly a sound to behold. It is not very often you see a debut shrouded in such confident ambition but SUNS are anything but ordinary.

Listen to “Everything Changes” from The Howl and the Many

New National video for “Terrible Love”

In homage to the rich tradition of “road dawg” music videos (ref. Pavement’s “Range Life”), and virtually every power ballad third single released between 1986-1989, we present the brand new video for the alternate version of “Terrible Love,” a bonus track from the expanded edition of The National’s High Violet set for Nov. 22 release on 4AD.

The video, directed by Tom Berninger, features tons of behind-the-scenes footage from the band’s never-ending 2010 tour, including their European festival stops and their performance at a rally for President Obama in Madison, WI last month.

Other highlights from the expanded edition of High Violet include two new previously unreleased tracks, b-sides and live recordings.

Roger Daltrey of the Who to rock NYC as Rock N’ Roll Fantasy Camp Special Guest Counselor

Can you imagine playing lead guitar for front man Roger Daltrey of The Who in front of a live, screaming and standing-room-only crowd at an iconic rock venue? For many people, this is a lifelong fantasy; at Rock ‘N’ Roll Fantasy Camp, it becomes reality. From January 12th to 17th in New York City, rock enthusiasts and amateur musicians from all walks of life will have the opportunity to interact with, learn from, jam with and perform alongside their idols as part of the rock camp that became the centerpiece of VH1 Classic’s new series – also called Rock ‘N’ Roll Fantasy Camp – which debuted October 16th as the most watched series premiere in network history.

Rock ‘N’ Roll Fantasy Camp New York City will feature several of the rock star counselors from the Mark Burnett produced VH1 Classic show, which, according to the New York Post’s Michael Starr, “far exceeded VH1’s expectations.” With the help of special guest counselor Roger Daltrey, one of the most iconic lead singers in rock ‘n’ roll history, rock greats the likes of Grammy Award-winning mega-producer Phil Ramone, Tommy James, Simon Kirke of Bad Company, Rudy Sarzo of Quiet Riot, Kip Winger of Winger, renowned singer/songwriter Mark Hudson, and many others, will be transforming campers from rock hobbyists into arena maestros.

_________________________________________________________________________
Rock ‘N’ Roll Fantasy Camp was founded by David Fishof in 1997 as the ultimate music experience for the amateur or aficionado, pairing music lovers of all levels together with rock icons for a first-hand immersion in the rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle. Camp attendees move from spectator to band member, sharing the stage – and limelight – with rock icons for an once-in-a-lifetime experience. More details available at www.rockcamp.com.
