 Five Finger Death Punchs Ivan Moody To Record Voice Work For Dolor: Lila
Here’s a comment from author Rick Florino: ”This new release finally fleshes out the intricacies and mythology of the town itself. The connections between each individual diary become clearer and the web of intrigue at the heart of Dolor slowly comes into focus. The characters cycle in and out, but the darkness, fear, anxiety, and evil all remain key elements in each story. Psychologically, Dolor exists in the space between the heinous things people do in real life and the unknown evil we fear in nightmares and that may or may not exist. The text is streamlined. Certain nuances have been changed, so Dolor readers will get a new experience in Books I-III in addition to two new books. This is the trip that I always meant for Dolor to be, and it’s only the beginning.”
You can pre-order the book for $6.66 (fitting price) from the Official Dolor Website as well as get an Amazon Kindle version here. Also, make sure to keep up-to-date with Five Finger Death Punch through their Official Website, MySpace, and Facebook.

Exclusive: Escape The Fate’s Max Green Talks Horror

“I’m a big fan of horror movies from the ’80s and the early ’90s,” exclaims Escape the Fate bassist Max Green. “I like old school horror movies because they were actually ‘horror’ movies. People died, and it got brutal. There was slashing, gashing, blood and guts. It was genuinely some fucked-up shit!”
Max’s brand new album, Escape the Fate (DGC/Interscope), could be the soundtrack to some film with a lot of “fucked-up shit.” In fact, this epic offering sits somewhere between the thrash violence of early Metallica, anthemic grunge and Danny Elfman-style Nightmare Before Christmas bombast. Hard rock fans everywhere rejoice!
Max talked to Bloody-Disgusting.com contributor and Dolor author Rick Florino about his favorite horror flicks for this exclusive feature.
