Multi-instrumentalist and solo artist Joey Diabolic has released a cover of White Zombie’s classic track “Creature of the Wheel”. The song is from his upcoming EP Through Soundwaves Vol 3 which will be hitting digital music platforms on January 15th, 2021.
Diabolic says, “I gotta be honest, it took me awhile to figure out which Astro Creep 2000 song to cover. When I finally figured out that my next releases were definitely going to be a fan-fiction reinterpretation of the Freddy Krueger/A Nightmare On Elm Street story line, ‘Creature of the Wheel’ was the most obvious choice.”
“It’s pretty obvious that I love White Zombie… So much so that I got their logo tattooed on my right bicep. As far as covering the song, I wanted to encapsulate my experiences of listening to their albums since 1993. There was no one that sounded like them… They were true originals.”

RAGE IN MY EYES are blending heavy/prog metal with elements of milonga (a music genre from southern Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina), the band presents a never-heard metal before.
RAGE IN MY EYES is a heavy metal band from Brazil. For 17 years the band went under the name SCELERATA, that had a huge history in the Brazilian heavy metal scenario. The band had three albums released worldwide, including the acclaimed album “The Sniper”, feat. guest appearances from Paul DiAnno (former Iron Maiden) and Andi Deris (Helloween). Scelerata was also Paul DiAnno’s official Brazilian backing band from 2009 to 2014, playing 50+ shows with this heavy metal icon. On October 9th, 2019, RAGE IN MY EYES joined IRON MAIDEN in Porto Alegre, Brazil, at Gremio Stadium. With this huge background, the musicians are now aiming for the future.
RAGE IN MY EYES’ latest album, entitled “Ice Cell”, is available on all digital platforms. The album was recorded between 2017 and 2018 in the cities of Los Angeles (USA) and Porto Alegre (Brazil) and was produced by Magnus Wichmann at Magneto Studio (Brazil) and Daufembach Studio (USA). It was mixed and mastered in Los Angeles by the renowned Brazilian producer Adair Daufembach. The cover was designed by Tiago Masseti, who has worked with Hibria, Luis Kalil and Daydream XI. According to the band, the graphic art seeks to show the mascot Sage in a darker mood: “We wanted to present a more realistic Sage, with a strong expression and at the same time that seemed marked by life; we brought him closer to us.”

Aside from hearing these guys grow from my teaching, one of the most rewarding parts has been getting kudos from our musical influence and hero SAMMY HAGAR!
