Rancid's Tim Armstrong Launching Online Show

The debut episode will premier exclusively on VEVO, the world's leading all-premium music video and entertainment platform, on October 21, 2011 with a trailer airing beginning on October 4, 2011.

Homage to the classic American Musicals, Tim Timebomb's RockNRoll Theater will center on Armstrong as today's punk rock Rod Serling, leading and narrating suspenseful episodes with a variety of special guest actors and musicians. Each episode will feature extensive song and dance numbers with hard-hitting rock musical songs and rousing dance numbers all wrapped in a dark edge all written by Armstrong.

"I'll play music til the day I die, and this takes everything in an exciting new direction," Armstrong adds. "I love collaborating with other artists and all I want to do is continue to make these episodes. That's the spirit of the project."

The pilot episode of Tim Timebomb's RockNRoll Theater entitled "Dante," will bring the 14th Century epic poem, Dante's Inferno, roaring into the 21th Century with a new take on greed and corporate corruption. The episode stars AFI frontman Davey Havok, guitarist and vocalist Lars Frederiksen of Rancid, and actor Robert David Hall known for his extensive work on CSI.
