In This Moment (interview here) have been announced as one of the acts on the upcoming ‘Music As A Weapon’ tour, which is going to be headlined by Korn and Disturbed (interview here). In the week leading up to the festival, the band will be playing a few headlining shows with support coming from local acts. Tour dates for these headlining shows are after the jump. 

Guitarist Chris Howorth comments: “When we received the news that we were a part of the music as a weapon tour we were overwhelmed with emotion, Maria and I were literally moved to tears. Our band has been constantly clawing our way up the ladder in this business and its very hard to get on a big tour like this, getting this news is like getting the best Christmas present we could hope for. We are truly blessed and extremely excited for this huge opportunity! We have been fans of Disturbed since their first record and have always wanted to tour with them. We adore Korn (our Mayhem Festival buddies) and Sevendust are some of the coolest guys we’ve met during our travels! This is going to be an amazing kick off to our 2011 tour cycle! Eternal thanks to Monster and Disturbed for allowing us to be a part of such an epic event.”

‘Wolfenstein 3D’, ‘Doom’ Composer Bobby Prince Has Passed Away at 81

Bobby Prince, the composer who provided the soundtracks to legendary titles such as Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, and Doom II, has passed away.

Prince’s family confirmed the composer’s death on June 16 late last week at the age of 81. No cause of death was released.

id Software, the company that gave Prince his first job in the industry, paid tribute to the composer, referring to him as a “video game music pioneer.”

Indeed, in addition to providing the soundtracks to id Software’s hits in the FPS genre, Bobby Prince also provided the soundtracks to other id Software classics, such as portions of the scores for Commander Keen series and the forerunner to the modern FPS, Catacomb 3-D. Prince also worked with Apogee Software and 3D Realms, providing the soundtrack for Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold, and teaming with Lee Jackson for Rise of the Triad and Duke Nukem 3D.

Bobby Prince’s death comes just after the Library of Congress announced back in May that his soundtrack for Doom would be preserved in the National Recording Registry.

The soundtrack for Doom and its sequel took inspiration from designer John Romero‘s collection of CDs at the studio, which included the likes of Alice in Chains, Pantera, and Metallica. In spite of the limitations composers faced with the sound cards of the era, Prince was able to replicate riffs from songs like “Master of Puppets” and “Painkiller” for tracks like “At Doom’s Gate”, the iconic opening track for Doom‘s first level, E1M1.

For Doom II‘s soundtrack, Prince continued to employ the same tactic, lifting rifts from songs like “Sex Type Thing”, “After All (The Dead)”, “South of Heaven” and more.

In addition to composing, Bobby Prince was also a practicing lawyer, and had pursued a career as an attorney before making his way into the video games industry.

Bobby Prince is survived by his wife Connie, and his sons, Robert Caskin Prince IV and Andrew (Cristy) Prince.
