To close out their 20th Anniversary Celebration (which we first told you about here), Bouncing Souls have released their final single in their "song of the month" series. "Never Say Die/When you're Young" is described by the band as "3 chords and a message to end the year with. It's a battle cry for the lifers to keep carrying that torch and burning it bright, but it's also directed at the youngest ears of tomorrow's generation. Find the truth inside, express it, and never give up."
In an announcement on the band's Facebook page, Bouncing Souls confirm the rumor that all 12 songs will be collected into a stand-alone album entitled Ghosts On The Boardwalk. A January release is mentioned, but no firm date is given.

Dream Theater release doc for new single; Tour in progress
13 hours ago
“Of the 10 videos we've done through the years, I felt we have never been truly captured ‘in our element...which of course is on tour, playing to our fans, with our lighting and video show. So I thought it was time to do a video that showed us in our ‘real world’ (unlike the ‘fake worlds’ that are usually created when shooting a promo video),” says Mike Portoy of Dream Theater about the band’s new documentary road video for their new single “Wither” from their 10th studio release Black Clouds & Silver Linings (Roadrunner). See interview with Portnoy about the video below.
Directed by Ramon Boutviseth, who did the same honors for the first clip for the album’s first single “A Rite Of Passage,” the “Wither” video was shot on location in the U.K. (London, Manchester), France (Paris, Lille) and Rotterdam (the Netherlands) as part of Dream Theater »

Exclusive Pics, Preview Dementium II
14 hours ago
You thought the terror was over, but the worst is yet to come
Renegade Kid has done it again. Dementium II is the follow up to Dementium: The Ward which pushed the Nintendo DS graphically to heights never seen before on a handheld platform. Slated for a February 2010 release, Dementium II improves on its predecessor’s game play and offers controllability that is usually reserved for larger systems, bringing it into the palm of your hand. Below the jump you'll find our hands-on first impressions of the game, along with photos from the development process, and a a gallery of 31 screenshots!
Dementium II picks up right where the critically-acclaimed original left off. Waking up from brain surgery in a mysterious prison, you must find your way to freedom. That alone would be hard enough, but why do you sometimes shift to a hellish parallel world?
And how is it that »

The Sound of Fright Night: An Interview with David Chackler
19 hours ago
A few weeks ago I peeled open my rib cage to reveal my raw, beating heart and the sound of that heart was (to the tune of “thump-thump, thump-thump”) : Fright-night, Fright-night, Fright….
Yeah, I worship writer/director Tom Holland’s 1985 vampire gem and I fly that fanged flag with pride.
But outside of the ace performances from Chris Sarandon, William Ragsdale and Roddy McDowell, outside of Holland’s sharp, affectionate script and tense – yet playful – direction and outside of Richard Edlund’s gorgeous special effects, one of the major hooks that Fright Night jabbed into me was the soundtrack, a sexy, atmospheric synth score by Brad Fiedel and a motley collection of 80’s pop and metal tunes that fit the material perfectly, almost as if they were written specifically for the action on screen.
Well, it turns out for the most part, they were.

Oh Yeah! Haunt Me Morella!
19 hours ago
You ever have one of those nights you can’t sleep? So you go down to the living room, turn off all the lights, make sure no one is home, and “accidentally” turn on Cinemax? If you’ve done so, then you know about the cavalcade of skin that takes over the late night airwaves, especially during the late 80’s and early 90’s. Many of these films stay with us, occupying a special place in the back of our minds. We know they’re there; we just would never admit seeing them to anyone else.
While doing my weekly foraging at the Goodwill searching the VHS rack looking for rare horror titles, I stumbled upon a memory. I exclaimed aloud, “Holy shit! The Haunting Of Morella! Where have I seen that before?” I glanced over at my fellow horror comrades and saw the look of shame in the eyes of »
