During his December 7 show at the House Of Blues in Anaheim, CA, Myles Kennedy (Alter Bridge) was joined onstage by his Slash Featuring Myles Kennedy And The Conspirators bandmate Slash (Guns N’ Roses, etc.) for a performance of “Behind The Veil.” You can check out some fan-filmed footage of that below:
During a recent appearance on the “Talk Louder” podcast, Graham Bonnet (ex-Rainbow, etc.) confirmed that his new collaborative track with Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maiden) will be titled “The Fifth Force Of Nature.” The song will appear on the Graham Bonnet Band’s upcoming album.
Bonnet said the following:
“[Bruce] did his vocal — what? — two months ago. What he’s doing, he’s doing the last verse of the song, the last pre-chorus and then and then the chorus. And then had he ad-libs after the end. And I’ve got the first verse to do with the pre-chorus and then the chorus. So I’ve got my bit to do. We haven’t done it yet. We’re just getting some new equipment together for the studio. And I think we have a new microphone, which is something I’ve got to look forward to.”
He also added:
“It’s about, is this reality or is it something else? That’s basically what it’s about. They really think there is a fifth force of nature, and some scientists or whatever are trying to build this machine that will find that particular place. I looked it up, and it’s real. They’re actually doing that. It sounds ridiculous, I know, but they think that we are manipulated by something else or we’re not even here, which scares the fuck out of me.”

During a recent interview with Capital Chaos TV, Gorguts guitarist/vocalist Luc Lemay offered an update on the band’s upcoming album. According to him, the band are planning to start the recording process for the effort around March.
Lemay said the following about the creative process:
“I was telling myself, as soon as we’re back from that [North American] CANNIBAL [CORPSE] tour that we did [with MAYHEM and BLOOD INCANTATION] two years ago, ‘I’m gonna start writing again.’ And I was really in the right headspace and I felt I had something to say. And I kind of hit myself on the head a bit with this — why do I take these breaks? But sometimes my mind is just not into it. I like to do a million things all the time. But when we came back from the CANNIBAL tour, I started to [think], ‘Okay. What would be the style of this record?’ So I was trying to get a new aesthetic together, but I just couldn’t find anything interesting to spark me up. And then I said, ‘Hey, what if I take ingredients from all the records?’ ‘Cause I hadn’t [written] a riff with tremolo picking and thrash beats since [1993’s] ‘Erosion [Of Sanity]’. That’s a long time. So what about writing riffs like that again? And then I started blending this with dissonant riffs and everything, and then, wow, it gave something really new. You recognize the band right away, but it’s very different from all the other records. So, that was the creative process for this one. So I’m very excited for this one.”
He also added the following about studio plans:
“We should go maybe March-ish or something. We still need to talk about this. But the music, all the music has been done for a while now. And it takes me a lot of time. I have a lot of reading [to do] to find the concept, ’cause I like doing concept records. So it took me a long time to find the topic. But just before this tour, I stumbled against a few topics and I was, like, ‘This is very interesting.’ So that’s been in my mind since. So, I got my topic I want. So I’m very inspired by it. So, it’s gonna be cool.”
