“Roadrunner United: The Concert” Juicy DVD Details

Roadrunner is to release Roadrunner United The Concert on December 9. The double-disc set hits shelves almost three years to the day after the “now-legendary” concert held at the Nokia Theater in Times Square in New York City on December 15, 2005.

Roadrunner United The Concert captures the festive intensity of the evening. A house band, featuring members of core Roadrunner acts such as Slipknot, Sepultura and Machine Head, performed hits and classics culled from the entirety of the Roadrunner catalog.

Some of the highlights included Slipknot/Stone Sour vocalist Corey Taylor performing “Bother” with Life of Agony’s Keith Caputo; former Killswitch Engage singer Jesse Leach dueting with current vocalist Howard Jones for KsE’s “My Last Serenade”; an assortment of frontmen handling vocals for staple songs like Slipknot’s “(Sic)” and “Surfacing,” Machine Head’s “Davidian,” King Diamond’s “Abigail,” Sepultura’s “Refuse/Resist,” Type O Negative’s “Black No. 1,” Soulfly’s “Eye For an Eye” as well as four songs from the Roadrunner United: The All-Star Sessions album.

The double disc set also includes a 75-minute documentary, complete with interviews and behind-the-scenes footage.
