BENEFIT FOR "DANGEROUS" DAN TOLER

Posted: 26 Oct 2011 04:22 PM PDT

A Note to Family, Friends & Fans from Dan Toler:

Hello Friends & Family, First of all I thank each and every one of you for being such good people and I want all of you to know I love you very much with all my heart and soul. Rhino is correct in stating that he and I happen to be in the same boat with illnesses trying to take us down.

We are both fighters and a couple of strong willed men that happen to love playing music for our family, friends and fans. We both have been dealt a tough way out of this life. Jesus Christ is going to take care of the both of us and just maybe a cure will come along. Rhino has the liver to deal with and I have been diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease).

Neither one of us know how much time we have left but then again this is true with each and every one of us. I know in my heart without God I am doomed. I thank my wife Debby Toler for taking care of me like no other person in this world could. She has been my rock for many many years and I love Debby with all my heart and soul. Thank you Lord for having Debby in my life.

I love doing benefits for people that need help and I never ever thought a benefit would have to be held for me. It definetly breaks my heart but I want to thank everyone helping out with this event. Without our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ there is no reason to exist and He is offering everlasting life to all who believe in Him. Trust in the Lord. May God bless you all and keep you forever, Amen.

Your Friend,
Dan Toler

STELLAR CORPSES VIDEO RELEASE: VIPER ROOM

Stellar Corpses Band Info

"We met in the drunk tank. I came to, and there they were! The acoustics were great, but it gets pretty boring when your only audience is the police." – Dusty Grave, lead singer, Stellar Corpses.

Well, if that leaves you with your jaw on the floor, read on.

The band's sense of humor is evident in the above quote. The four guys in Stellar Corpses (which literally means "dead stars") not only rock, but are also intelligent, cool people and have kick ass personalities. Their album Dead Stars Drive-In (Santa Carla Records) drops on January 24, 2012. And they're not bad to look at either, for all the females reading this.

Good looks aside, they can rock the hell out of any venue they play. They're hard core rockers to the bone, and they prove it every time they hit the stage or whenever their music is played. Their new album, Dead Stars Drive-In (Santa Carla Records), will be released on January 24, 2012, and was produced by Joe McGrath (AFI, Tiger Army, Alkaline Trio and many more). "It was amazing to record in the same place that so many of my influences recorded," Dusty exudes. "Black Flag, Descendents and Pennywise to name a few. And working with Joe McGrath was incredible. He helped us to make the best record of our lives. "We are excited to have some really special guests on the album like Hunter Burgan (AFI), Jade Puget (AFI) and Michale Graves (Misfits)!"

Stellar Corpses list their musical influences as Elvis, Black Flag, Social Distortion, Stray Cats, Bad Religion, Black Sabbath, AFI, The Misfits, Danzig, Rancid, Sepultura and Megadeth.

With a mix like that, it's no wonder Stellar Corpses blended their musical tastes into something really special. Says the whole band, "We hope we can inspire some young kid who's life is changing and needs some music to relate to. Morbid music saves lives…we don't care what anyone says."




VIDEO RELEASE PARTY!!

WHO: Santa Cruz punk rockers Stellar Corpses

WHAT: Video premiere and party for single "Vampire Kiss"

WHEN: Sunday, October 30, 8:00pm

WHERE: The Viper Room, downstairs, 8852 W. Sunset Blvd. Hollywood, CA 90069

MORE:

On October 30, Stellar Corpses will be debuting/screening their new video for "Vampire Kiss." There will also be a raffle and a band meet-and-greet.

The video for "Vampire Kiss" is a wink and a nod to a certain cult classic movie that was shot in Santa Cruz. "Shooting a professional video was a new experience for us, so we didn't know what to expect,"

Dusty continues. "We knew director Justin Janowitz was good, but we didn't know he was THAT good! Watching him pour himself into his work was truly inspirational. He is a real artist, fully present in every aspect of the project from casting to location scouting to set design to making sure each shot was perfect.

He made it really easy for us to get into our roles as artists and entertainers. It being our first pro video, we were all pretty nervous, but Justin and his awesome crew helped us relax and deliver the best performance possible."

The video also boasts cameos from producer Joe McGrath (Tiger Army, Offspring, Alkaline Trio, AFI, etc.), who produced Dead Stars Drive-In, and AFI's Hunter Bergan, who sings backup vocals on the track. "Working with Hunter Burgan was amazing.

He took the video to a deeper, darker level, which was perfect... way more than we expected. When I heard he was going to do a cameo, we thought he would just walk by in the background and then bail, but he didn't. He fully embraced his role and brought some serious intensity to the set."

Stellar Corpses release their full album Dead Stars Drive In (Santa Carla Records) on January 24, 2012, and release the "Vampire Kiss" single on iTunes on Halloween 2011, the day after the video premiere event.
