Celldweller “Breakout (feat. Scandroid)” Lyric Video Premiere [Exclusive]
“To Hell with this cell, we’re breaking out tonight!”
We’ve teamed up once again with the incredible Detroit electronic rock artist Celldweller for another premiere! This time, we’ve got the lyric video for “Breakout”, which features electronic duo Scandroid. The track appears on the brand new album End of an Empire, which comes out today, so make sure to pick up a copy at one of the below links.
Celldweller tells Bloody-Disgusting:
What tales do cyborgs tell when they sit around campfires and share stories of their distant past? One of them might be about a faction of cyborgs imprisoned for being what they are – part machine, part human. Their escape from the Helion prison system made the historic jailbreak of Alcatraz seem like a child’s tale.
The track is a fast-paced blast of energy, a shot of adrenaline to the arm. It’s full of pulsing and throbbing beats mixed with a Carpenter-esque snarl.
And what better day to release it than the end of the work week. After all, who doesn’t feel like they’re breaking out come the end of their shift before the weekend?

‘The Haunting of Pennhurst’ Exclusive Clip Trains Scare Actors For Historic Haunt in Tribeca Doc
The past and present collide in haunting, poignant ways in the genre documentary The Haunting of Pennhurst, which sees a Halloween haunt serve as a reclamation of true historic horrors.
Ahead of its world premiere at the 25th Tribeca Film Festival, we have an exclusive clip that sees scare actors in training for the Halloween season. The catch? This haunt is opening at the historic Pennhurst State School & Hospital site, a facility that caused immense harm to its disabled patients over decades of its operation.
In the documentary, “For over seventy years, Pennhurst State School & Hospital was called a place of care. What happened inside killed over half its population. It closed in 1987, leaving behind unmarked graves and an unresolved history. Today, on those same grounds, disabled performers – many living with the same conditions that once sent people to Pennhurst – put on their makeup, pull on their costumes, and prepare to scare people for a living.
“Through grit, compassion, and buckets of blood, the eclectic performers of the Pennhurst Asylum haunted attraction are wrestling with a space that is at once a lucrative business and a gravesite.”
The upcoming documentary hails from directing trio Nathan Stenberg, Mike Attie, and Katarina Poljak, who explore their socially-relevant subject through archival footage, first-hand accounts, and an immersive verité.
“Pennhurst has haunted us since we first passed through its dragon-tooth gates; the horrors of the institution echo through the site today. We are so grateful to bring this film to the Tribeca Festival, particularly the Escape from Tribeca section, which feels right for a story where past and present bleed together. We hope audiences leave unnerved and asking the same uncomfortable questions we did,” Attie, Stenberg, and Poljak said in a statement.
Watch the clip below that sees disabled and neurodivergent scare actors learning the ropes of a Halloween haunt, reclaiming the site’s grim history in the process.
