Veteran hard-rock act Extreme have announced their first new studio album in 15 years. The band’s sixth LP overall is appropriately titled Six, and features the just-released raw rocker “Rise” as the first single.
Extreme — featuring Gary Cherone (vocals), Nuno Bettencourt (guitar), Pat Badger (bass), and Kevin Figueiredo (drums) — will release Six on June 9th via earMUSIC.
“Musically, it’s aggressive,” Cherone stated of “Rise.” “Lyrically, it’s a cautionary tale on the rise and fall of fame. You get seduced into it. Once you’re on top, they’ll rip you apart and tear you down. That’s the nature of the beast.”
“When Eddie Van Halen passed, it really hit me,” Bettencourt added. “I’m not going to be the one who will take the throne, but I felt some responsibility to keep guitar playing alive. So, you hear a lot of fire on the record.”

Some of you may not remember the first live-action Mortal Kombat television show that aired in the late 90s, but that's okay! Because for the first time ever, WB is finally bringing the complete series to DVD! Come inside for all the details.
I'm not going to sit here and say that Mortal Kombat: Conquest was a good show (it only lasted one season), but I will tell you that I watched the crap out of this show every week when I was younger and they first came out. For some reason, the campy little show has stuck with me, but sadly they've never made it into any home entertainment format before (at least not in the Us). Thankfully that's all going to change as Warner Bros. is finally releasing the show on DVD (I was hoping for blu-ray, but I'll take what I can get) on March 31, 2015.

If you’ve seen Drive, Nicolas Winding Refn‘s culty arthouse noir starring Ryan Gosling, you’ll know exactly what I mean when I say Nightcall immediately and effectively set the tone for the entire film. Music turned out to play an unexpectedly important role in the movie, but then again, what about that movie ended up as expected?
I loved Drive and could gush about it here all day, but if I did that I’d never get around to telling you the good news. Johnny Jewel, the mastermind behind Drive‘s brilliant soundtrack and part of the featured Chromatics and Desire, just released Symmetry: Themes for an Imaginary Film. At 2.5 hours long, it’s every bit as 80′s synth-driven as the real film score we’ve come to love, plus we’ve got it streaming free. Check it out below.
