Devildriver’s Dez Fafara And Lamb Of God’s Mark Morton Have Music Written Together

Published

on

As a big fan of both Devildriver and Lamb Of God, I’m really excited to hear (via Dez Fafara’s Twitter) that Dez Fafara (singer of Devildriver) and Mark Morton (guitarist of Lamb Of God) have collaborated on a music project. According to these tweets, 14 tracks have been put together over the past four years and there is no expected release date. Dez says that the end result is unlike what people would normally expect.

Fafara used the opportunity of announcing this project to also clear the air about some other issues. Although Dez has said he would love to do some shows with Coal Chamber, he is quick to make sure that people don’t think Devildriver is taking a hiatus. In fact, he states that the band is booked through Feb. of 2013 (!!!) and that a new album will be recorded in that time.

Alright people, what do you think this project sounds like? More importantly, how much do you want to hear it?

‘The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only Live’ Concert Event to Make Streaming Debut Next Month

Published

The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only Live

AMC has announced that The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only LIVE, the standing-room-only performance celebrating AMC’s premiere of its newly-released The Vampire Lestat at New York City’s iconic Beacon Theatre last month, will debut on streaming.

The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only LIVE begins streaming on AMC+ on August 23.

Ahead of its streaming premiere, fans can preview the concert event, featuring original songs from series composer Daniel Hart and performed by Sam Reid, in Hall H at Comic Con International on July 24. 

Our own Daniel Kurland attended the special event, highlighting how electric the Immortal Vampire is on stage: “It’s clear in this season of television that Reid was born to be a rock star, but it’s surreal to see him effortlessly command the stage — and the audience — at every step of the concert. He recites Shakespeare monologues and bitches out Armand between songs, all while the audience screams in support. For the duration of this concert, Reid is Lestat, and he’s given thousands of fans a memory that’s as immortal as any vampire.”

Based on Anne Rice‘s The Vampire Chronicles book series, The Vampire Lestat is the rock and roll-centric third season of AMC’s “Interview with the Vampire” created by showrunner Rolin Jones.

The Vampire Lestat goes on an electric multi-city tour while being haunted by “muses” from his wild and rebellious past. As his band’s popularity and star power rises, so does Lestat’s influence over vampires and humans alike, leaving others to contend with Lestat’s power in the face of the Great Conversion, an unnatural surge in the vampire population.

Jacob Anderson, Assad Zaman, Eric Bogosian, Delainey Hayles and Jennifer Ehle star with Reid. Executive producers include Jones, Mark Johnson, Hannah Moscovitch, the late Anne Rice, and her son Christopher Rice.

The series finale airs this Sunday, July 19, on AMC and AMC+.
