AC/DC Release Play Ball Video

Directed by David Mallett, the clip was shot in London in early October, along with the album's title track. "The spirit of 'Play Ball' is sort of a m�lange, ie mess up, of all sorts of outrageous videos of people playing ball," says Mallett, "plus a relative performance from the band."

"Rock Or Bust" was recorded at Vancouver's Warehouse Studio with producer Brendan O'Brien (Aerosmith, Pearl Jam) and engineer Mike Fraser.

AC/DC will launch a world tour in support of the album in 2015. Watch the video here.

Motorhead's Lemmy Reveals Surprising Favorite Band

Lemmy tells the Huffington Post: "We're hearing a lot of guff about young male musicians requesting peppermint tea and biscuits rather than Jack Daniel's and strippers. Do you think the identity of the male rock star has changed?

"It depends who you're talking to really, doesn't it. I mean some people are still wild, although it's getting more and more difficult and some people, you know, like the mineral water. I don't know. I have to drink some of that sh*t now, but there you go."

Asked to reveal something that would surprise his fans, he adds: "One of my favourite bands is ABBA." Meanwhile, Motorhead drummer Mikkey Dee says writing new material that sounds like their old songs is "very hard." Read what he had to say here.

Pink Floyd In The Studio To Discuss New Album The Endless River

The project features material recorded by Gilmour, Mason and keyboardist Rick Wright during sessions for 1994's "The Division Bell", and serves as the band's tribute to Wright, who died from cancer in 2008 at the age of 65.

"I think on this record, there's an element of homage and a recognition of Rick," explains Mason. "It's perhaps making up for lack of recognition prior to this. He's always perhaps been the unsung hero."

"We could not have made this record 20 years ago. It would have been impossible," adds Gilmour. Read more and grab the link to listen to the full episode here.

Igor Cavalera Hoping For A Classic Sepultura Reunion

He left the band over "artistic differences" in 2006 following brother and frontman Max's acrimonious departure in 1996. The current formation, consisting of vocalist Derrick Green, guitarist Andreas Kisser, bassist Paulo Pinto and drummer Eloy Casagrande have been working together since 2011.

But Igor hopes he and Max - who currently lead Cavalera Conspiracy - can work again with Kisser and Pinto. He tells Metal Wani: "I hope so. It's something that we don't know if it's going to happen or not. To be honest, I really hope one day we can do this in a very cool way."

Syd Arthur Release Autograph Video

The follow-up to 2012's On An On was launched via Harvest Records, who described it as: "the archetypal Canterbury sound evolving into a surprisingly heartfelt mutation of Arcadian acoustic, and Syd Arthur's uniquely modern voice."

Frontman Liam Magill recently said: "The weirder stuff comes as naturally as the more traditional; it's all the same to us, really. Everything filters through and comes out as us four guys and the sound we make."

Blondie's Debbie Harry Reacts To Be Labeled An Icon

Looking at the images from throughout her career, she says she is uncomfortable with the tag 'icon.' Harry, 69, tells Hello Magazine: "Someone like Judi Dench is a great icon. Icon is such a strange word and when they started using it about me, I thought it was kind of silly.

"It's interesting, I suppose, that I ended up having such a different life than I ever thought. I'm happy that it worked. I didn't really have an artistic upbringing, or background in music or anything." Read more here.

Arch Enemy New Frontwoman Inspired By Old Singer On New Album

Her first album with the band launched earlier this year via Century Media and the singer reveals she also brought a new balance to the group's ninth studio album.

She tells SkullsNBones: "I made a conscious effort to write a little bit like Angela - but guitarist Michael Amott also wrote some of the lyrics so those are automatically Arch Enemy.

"The end result was a good balance - opening new doors to more experimental, progressive zones while keeping that traditional Arch Enemy sound. We have the extremes of softness and heaviness on the album."

Singled Out: Roxanna's Here With Me

The hit single, off of my debut album, Exotica is "Here With Me," a story about the love between my mother and father. When my father first met my mother, he presented her with rose and a beautiful poetry book written in Farsi. She bookmarked all of her favorite poems that he wrote for her in the book. When my mother passed away, I inherited the poetry book and the first bookmarked page I opened was this song, "Here With Me".

At this time, I had an amazing opportunity to work with Chris Botti. I always loved Chris Botti. I was on a very bad date in 2008 and his song, "My Romance," came on I fell in love with his music-- it's what got me through the date, ha! I knew then that I had to collaborate with him. When I began writing "Here With Me," I translated the poem from Farsi to English, made a few alterations and I could already hear the smokey jazz sound, the romantic trumpet, it was everything Chris is fantastic at creating. The song soon became this beautiful piece of art, and the first of many collaborations with Chris.

In addition to narrating my parents' love, it also speaks to my own experiences with falling in love, and because they are real life experiences I think it feels even more powerful. This is why I decided to make a music video for this song. I knew I wanted something classy and romantic and James Scott (soap heartthrob) was the perfect fit. I met with James and he immediately loved my sound and the meaning behind the song. We brought in director, Samuel Gonzales Jr. who was really able to bring life to my vision. I truly tried to embody my mother, wearing the classic, chic, style as she used to, dancing with same passion she used to, I wanted to convey her relationship with my father, her yearning for the deepest possible love. Their relationship has inspired mine, because of them I know what it means to find your soul mate, and that is what "Here With Me," is really about.

I hope whoever listens to the song and watches the video understands it is a narration of honest, true love.

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself as you check out a preview for the upcoming video here and learn more about Roxanna and her album "Exotica" right here!
