Alice Cooper has released a video for "White Line Frankenstein." Tom Morello plays the guitar solo on the track. In a release, Cooper stated: "“White Line Frankenstein is a monster that we created. It’s a truck driver who’s been out there a long time. He's the king of the road. He doesn't live in a house. He lives in that truck,” Alice says. “In the song, this surreal tough guy is driving on white lines for his whole life. So, ‘White Line Frankenstein’ would be his CB handle. It’s monstrous and definitely a stage song.”" That's off Road Road coming out August 25 on earMUSIC. You can see the video below.

<p>In retrospect, Warner Bros.’ decision to put their slate out on HBO Max may have had another silver lining beyond simply allowing subscribers to watch Dune at home. The company wide-chaos it inspired, which is still being litigated to this very day, freed Christopher Nolan from his longtime studio home and allowed him to make a different kind of film than the one he’d spent the last 20-odd years producing for WB. It may not surprise you that Nolan’s heart […]</p>

That run begins today (July 19) with “Vampire Empire,” and chances are the Bandcamp url will get snagged by the time the splashy track concludes its 3:12 runtime.
