Music


New Music/Video
ROSÉ & Bruno Mars - APT. https://youtu.be/ekr2nIex040 CATCHY AF!! But that is par for the course with Bruno Mars. Apparently the lyrics (and title) are a play on words for a Korean drinking game. Rose from Blackpink.
Cradle of Filth - Malignant Perfection https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FiF-PAt6N9U surprisingly restrained for a Cradle song. Trying to rekindle Nymphetamine? Video is VERY fitting for the season.
Dead Icarus - 1 Million Days https://youtu.be/EjBGU-hF4js MUCH more Atreyu than anything previously released. This has Curse vibes all over it, even the video.
Better Lovers - Love as an Act of Rebellion https://youtu.be/5qCT4puiPJY I almost like these guys as much as Miss Machine era Dillinger… almost. What is with the 4:3 aesthetic these days?
Bloodywood - Nu Delhi https://youtu.be/A3C9NwGKgq4?si=k5I2p2CYtUofhYfE A little less on the NU sound. Still well put together, if slightly forgettable.
Breaking Benjamin - Awaken https://youtu.be/cHj8PtRdMQk Decent breakdown/solo section, but don’t believe the hype. NOT extra heavy.
Loss Becomes - Broken Mirrors Feat Jesse Leach https://youtu.be/_dTIV7xI9jM THIS is how you use a Jesse Leach vocal spot.

Tours/Festivals
Jerry Cantrell - Runs from Jan 31 through March 9. Support from Filter.
Claudio Simonetti’s Goblin - Oct 31 through Dec 15. Screening Demons in select cities.

Reg ‘ol News
Iron Maiden - Paul Di’anno passed at 66. The band’s first vocalist on their debut “Iron Maiden” and “Killers.” His years long battle with Lymphedema seems to have ended. Official documentary coming in 2025.
Papa Roach - Jacoby Shaddix says the next record “makes sense” to be a heavy record. The heaviest record they have ever done he claims. Seems like another trend hop to me.
As I Lay Dying - Bassist and vocalist Ryan Neff has left the band, with a very curt exit statement on his socials. This can’t be an issue with Lambesis’ past, this has to be just Tim being difficult to work with at this point.
Static-X - Hoping to release the documentary “Evil Disco: The Rise, Fall, and Regeneration of Static-X” in 2025. 

Suggests
Korn - Self Titled
Released in ‘94.  From the haunting intro of “Blind” to the twisted, primal aggression in “Clown” and “Daddy,” the album is a sonic trip through the dark corners of the mind. Its themes of isolation, fear, and inner torment align perfectly with the spooky season. 

Gaming/Tech


Follow-ups/Corrections
Netflix - Closing their AAA gaming studio. Team Blue has been shuddered with 90 projects in various stages of development, and with staff that included Joseph Staten (Halo) and Rafael Grassetti (God of War). https://www.gamefile.news/p/netflix-team-blue-socal-studio 
Phasmophobia - Set for Xbox Series and Playstation 5/ VR2 Oct 29th. Multi-player horror FINALLY making its way onto consoles. https://www.engadget.com/gaming/aaaaaah-phsamophobia-haunts-consoles-this-month-182546124.html 

Reg ‘ol News
Halo 2 - Project Cartographer (MOD) is rolling out a Spooky event for Halloween. You can now play as a skeleton in Halo 2.
Elon VS Bladerunner - Alcon Entertainment has accused Elon of copyright infringement over an image included in the Cybercab/Robotaxi event earlier this month. Calling the image “nearly identical” to images from the movie.
Ford X Tesla - The free Ford adapter the company gave out to connect to Tesla chargers. There is a long term issue with the current adaptors that will negatively affect charge times over time. They will be issuing replacements “in the coming weeks.”
Nintendo Beta - The strange beta test for Nintendo has gone live for people on the beta list. Seems that Nintendo is trying their hand at an MMORPG, with their unique twist. Kinda seems like Second Life meets Starfield. You are basically populating a planet.

Suggests
MK1 - Halloween Towers running all week.

Comic Books/Books

Suggests

Secret Wars - Thanos returning to fight God Emperor Doom.
Big Bang Theory - Stuart-centric spinoff series about the comic book shop.
