Sevendust

For over three decades, Sevendust have made countless fans feel a part of something special. The group’s community isn’t passive. Members of the “7D Army” make a very active commitment to being part of this family—as evinced by sold-out shows worldwide and innumerable tattoos of the band’s logo and lyrics. Since 1994, the iconic Atlanta quintet have quietly built a legacy without parallel, encompassing sales of nearly eight million albums, a GRAMMY® Award nomination for “Best Metal Performance,” three Top 15 entries on the Billboard 200, hundreds of millions of streams, and the fierce loyalty of millions of listeners in every corner of the globe. Along the way, they’ve shined as an outlier equally comfortable on tracks with either members of Deftones, Creed, and Periphery or Xzibit and Daughtry. V13 spotlighted it with a cover story, Consequence hailed the music as “hard-hitting,” and Guitar World marveled at how, “more than 25 years after releasing their gold-selling self-titled debut, Sevendust’s music still has plenty of bite.” Speaking to their longevity, they notably notched their biggest radio success to date with “Everything” in 2024, netting a career-high entry on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. However, the guys really delivered for their diehard base with 2026’s ONE[Napalm Records]. Sevendust’s 15th full-length LP forges ten simultaneously lean and gut-punching tracks out of gargantuan riffs, seismic grooves, and signature soul-stirring hooks. Rallying together around a common goal as bandmates and brothers, Lajon Witherspoon [vocals], Clint Lowery [lead guitar, backing vocals], John Connolly [rhythm guitar, backing vocals], Vince Hornsby [bass], and Morgan Rose [drums] have crafted a body of work that both day-one devotees and new fans alike can hold onto forever.

Theory Of A Deadman

Theory Of A Deadman have blazed their own path as one of the most unapologetic forces in the rock world today with several multi-platinum hits, albums and sold out shows worldwide. Combining witty, candid songwriting with incontrovertible riffs and melodic choruses, the Canadian band – comprised of Tyler Connolly, Dean Back, Dave Brenner and Joe Dandeneau – has transcended the zeitgeist, persisting as a multi-faceted rock powerhouse. Including hits like the fan favorite “Santa Monica”; the gold-certified “All Or Nothing”; the platinum-certified “Hate My Life” and “Bitch Came Back”; the double-platinum “Not Meant To Be” – the quartet has notched twelve songs in the Top 10 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Chart with four of those being #1s, the set staples “Bad Girlfriend,” “Lowlife,” “History Of Violence” & “Rx (Medicate).” The latter being the biggest smash of their career thus far, garnering them a nomination for “Rock Song of the Year” at the iHeartRadio Music Awards. The band has logged two Top 10 debuts on the Billboard Top 200, four Top 5 debuts on Billboard’s Canadian Albums Chart, nominated for five Juno Awards, and has earned high praise from American Songwriter, Billboard, and Classic Rock Magazine and various other publications. Now, the foursome once again deliver a triumph in their latest studio effort, Funeral Songs, Vol 1 – the first part of two EPs, undeniably anthemic and undeniably rock and roll including the songs “Barricade” and “Winnebago (Lay Low)” with much more to come.

Blade Runner Live
Experience Ridley Scott’s cult classic, Blade Runner, on a vast HD screen while Vangelis’s iconic, synthesizer-led score is performed live in sync with the film by The Avex Ensemble. This multi-Academy Award-nominated film is presented in its 2007 Final Cut edition, offering a unique cinematic and musical experience. In this stylish noir thriller set in a dystopian future, former police officer Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford) is pulled back into duty as a Replicant Hunter after four bioengineered beings escape from an off-world colony and return to Earth. Tasked with eliminating them, Deckard’s mission grows increasingly complex when he crosses paths with Rachel (Sean Young), a Replicant who believes she’s human, raising questions of identity, emotion, and what it truly means to be alive. Vangelis’ legendary score, anchored by the expressive synthesized sound, redefined what electronic music could do in cinema. His use of sweeping synthesizers and atmospheric textures created a haunting soundscape that became inseparable from the film’s emotional and visual identity. More than four decades later, its influence on film scoring and electronic music remains undeniable. Following its North American premiere on February 17, 2024, Blade Runner Live in Concert launches its first U.S. tour, inviting audiences to rediscover this genre-defining classic through a powerful fusion of image and sound.

This movie is rated “R”.

Blade Runner LIVE is a production of Avex Classics International.

This movie is in English with English subtitles/caption.
