Celldweller Plans New Music, Book Series, And More

Electronic rocker Celldweller has made some pretty big announcements this week detailing his plans for 2013. He states that there will be a “…pretty nonexistent touring schedule” this year because he plans on releasing a new album, which will be the followup to last year’s Wish Upon A Blackstar.

He also states that Wish Upon A Blackstar is a conceptual album and that “… the visuals surrounding it were there to help tell the story.” As a result, he has teamed up with 5 time award winning author Josh Viola (The Bane of Yoto) & renowned author Keith Ferrel (Bloodmoon: Birth of the Beast) to write a Blackstar novel, which will be released in three acts. Upon their initial release, the books will only be available digitally but a physical release is planned once all acts are out.

Additionally, Celldweller will be releasing a soundtrack to accompany each act of the book. There are hopes but no official plans to release a full score album upon the full book release.

You can read Celldweller’s entire plan below. READ MORE

[Exclusive] Something Isn’t Right In Suburbia In Blue Stahli’s “ULTRAnumb” Music Video

If the thought of living in suburbia doesn’t fill you with dread, perhaps Blue Stahli‘s latest video for “ULTRAnumb” will take care of that! Directed by Grant Mohrman, the video features Blue Stahli standing in a kiddie pool full of blood, a lovely couple sharing a human heart at a picnic, latex-clad people straight out of American Horror Story engaged in choreographed dance, and more. It’s also got a great deal of humor as well as a guest appearance from Celldweller! Check out the video below!

Now, I want to let you all know that there is a little hidden gem somewhere towards the end of the video. If you can find it and figure it out, I’ll give you a cookie.

The song comes from Blue Stahli’s 2011 self-titled album, which you can snag here. READ MORE

Exclusive Top 10: Celldweller Share Their Favorites

Detroit electronic rocker Celldweller has sent Bloody-Disgusting his Top 10 Horror Movie list and it’s full of some fun and awesome choices! Several of them are VERY unorthodox and some might make you question whether or not they are horror. Well, to Celldweller they fit the bill and I’m not going to argue (because I honestly feel that all the unorthodox ones can be considered horror in their own right).
