| Underworld
Evolution |
Cornerstone reports: Underworld and it's accompanying
soundtrack albums are perhaps the most thoughtful, valued and respected
genre film soundtracks continuing in the proud tradition of The Matrix,
The Crow and Spawn.
As Underworld Evolution continues the saga
of the story, so does the new Soundtrack Album continue the tone set musically.
On this new album is the exclusive debut solo recording from Chester Bennington,
and a new exclusive recording by Puscifer. Chester Bennington is of course
best know as the lead singer of iconic rock band Linkin Park. Likewise
Pusicfer who contributed to the first Underworld album, is a new outlet
for the highly respected, and ommercially successful music genius Maynard
James Keenan. Maynard is best known as the frontman of both Tool and A
Perfect Circle. Also a contributing member of Puscifer is Danny Lohner,
the famed former Nine Inch Nails guitarist who is also a sought out songwriter,
producer and remixer.[see full story for more including tracklisting]-

Update |
Kerosene Media reports: Switched's 2 disc
set Ghosts in the Machine will be in stores January 10th.
Rumors have been flying for the past few
months about the possibilities of the band reuniting for some shows in
support of Ghosts in the Machine. Well, we are very happy to let everyone
know that it is now looking like a reality that Switched will be doing
some limited touring in support of GITM, starting with a February CD release
show in Cleveland, details TBA. The definite lineup will consist of vocalist
Ben Schigel, guitarists Joe Schigel and BC Kochmit, and bassist Josh Jansen
(replacing Corey Lowery who departed to Dark New Day), who also plays in
Kochmit's current vehicle, TINJEN. There is no official word if drummer
Chad Szeliga, currently recording his first LP as the drummer for Breaking
Benjamin, will be available for any/all of the shows, but, if it's humanly
possible, hopefully he'll be there. [see full story for tracklisting]-
