Metallica Release 360 Video For Classic Song

The American Epic Sessions features modern artists replicating early recording processes. For this scene, John is asked to improvise a new track from the lyrics Bernie Taupin hands him.

The yearning love song is sparse and melancholy and features strings and a military beat: 'I won't run away no more, I promise," sings Thom Yorke. "Even when I get bored, I promise/ Even when you lock me out, I promise."

Stanley said (via KISS Asylum) "The years that we were without the makeup were fine for me. I found them very satisfying because I got a chance to be out there without makeup, which I craved at that point. I think it was easier for me because my persona wasn't really defined by the makeup - it was embellished.

System of a Down singer Serj Tankian saw Cornell at Elton John's 70th birthday on March 25. They had a 'long chat" during which Tankian says he asked Cornell if touring was beginning to feel old hat.

"For myself, it's fun but nothing new under the sun," Tankian said. '[Cornell] was just the opposite: 'I'm really excited. I'm doing this tour with Soundgarden. I've got these other ideas.' He had plans, man," Tankian told Rolling Stone.

Producer Brendan O'Brien mixed legendary Soundgarden material, including their 1994 breakthrough Superunknown, and produced Cornell's final solo album Higher Truth in 2015. He saw the frontman on The Tonight Show, where they performed 'The Promise" from the film of the same name.

"Goodbye Soleil" is the third song the group has revealed as a preview from the upcoming album, following the previously released"J-Boy" and the title track.

It will be released in various formats including digitally, CD and vinyl. Roy Orbison's son Alex had the following to say, "If ever there were a singer whose body of work benefits from a collaboration with the Royal Philharmonic it would be Roy Orbison.

During the course of his career and after his passing it was constantly noted that his transcendent vocal ability made him something of an anomaly in the world of pop and rock and that, in another life, he would have taken the classical music/opera world by storm.

The new set will feature 55 previously unreleased songs among its 121 tracks. Highlights include key tracks from all of their classic albums, single B-sides, BBC Radio Sessions, 5 songs from the French TV programme, 'Pop 2' (December 1970), 5 songs from the Television show, 'The Man They Couldn't Hang' (1971) and the audio for an entire concert at The Fairfield Halls, Croydon (December 16th 1973) plus 2 songs recorded live for the Scottish Television programme, 'Anne Lorne Gillies - The World of Music' (1976).

The celebration begins July 11, when Rhino releases a new collection from the Grateful Dead, Smiling On A Cloudy Day, which features tracks like "Morning Dew," "China Cat Sunflower" and "St. Stephen."

The frontman for the Russian metalcore group Roma Sadygov had the following to say, "'Fall To Rise' is the main song from the album. The title holds the history of my life and our band. We are all working on ourselves to get better at what we do. Not always was everything perfect, we faced many fails and hard times, but they only made us stronger and actually made us better.
