Footage from Morse’s October 5th show in Mexico City has surfaced featuring Morse and drummer Portnoy switching places for a cover of THE OSMONDS’ 1972 hit ‘Crazy Horses’. Check it out below.

 

Century Media Records have announced the following: With best of categories in Pop, R’n’B and Rock, iTunes (UK) has recognized ADRENALINE MOB’s stunning inaugurate album, “Omertá” as their metal album of the year. It will feature on iTunes over Christmas at the special price of £ 5.99 / € 6,99 from December 14th on!

 

Bringing together acclaimed SYMPHONY X singer Russell Allen, former DREAM THEATER and AVENGED SEVENFOLD drum virtuoso Mike Portnoy, and SONIC STOMP shred extraordinaire Mike Orlando, ADRENALINE MOB is a musical mafia of the highest order! Russell Allen comments: “We are extremely honored to be voted Metal Album of the year by ITunes UK and we can’t wait to cross the pond and  rock out with all the awesome UK metal heads!”

 

On “Omertá”, the group cranks out one bruising hard rock anthem after another. Songs like the first single “Undaunted” and “Hit the Wall” hijack the right level of instrumental intricacy and taut technicality while grooving and moving fluidly. At the same time, “Angel Sky” takes flight on a massive lead and heavenly refrain. The band is currently gearing up to record a number of cover songs for a Special CD Edition of “Omertá” to be released in 2013.

Says Moyer: “Mike Portnoy called me about auditioning for his new band Adrenaline Mob. He had heard through the grapevine that I was looking to stay busy while Disturbed is on hiatus. After jamming with Russ, MO, and Portnoy, the chemistry as musicians was undeniable. I am super stoked about joining “The Family” and I can’t wait to hit the road with these guys and see what kind of musical mayhem we can create!”
