Rock 'n' Roll Will Never Die
Just as the world is recovering from the loss of Cat O' Nine Tails comes news that the jet carrying the band has mysteriously re-appeared in the same air space from which it had vanished six months ago. Was it a publicity stunt? The band is unable—or unwilling—to answer that question. They were "lost. But now we're back…" with the promise of a new album with a killer new sound coming soon.
There's something definitely not right with the band, but the nation is too firmly in the grip of Cat O' Nine Fever to notice. And as the formerly affable, much-loved Cat O' Nine Tails gears up for a new stadium show, it falls to Cat's original front man, sacked years before, and the members of a virtually unknown punk band, Lucifer Sam, to uncover the real threat behind the massive publicity drive.
Sex and drugs and rock-n-roll meet murder and mayhem in this heavy metal horror story.
When renowned band Cat O' Nine Tails miraculously reappears in the same spot as their mysterious disappearance 6 months earlier, their fans are elated. So what if they look younger and speak in faltering monotones. Who cares if they can't or won't say where they've been? What counts is the music and that they are back with a brand new sound. It's not that odd that they keep themselves secluded from friends and family is it? They're just too busy preparing for a concert and recording their new CD. Their new music is like nothing anyone has ever heard before. Those who listen to it are changed. For some it only takes the first few malignant notes to turn their thoughts to murder. For others it's a more gradual decline into wickedness. Either way, if a recording holds such power, one wonders what evil could be conjured by listening to them live and in person at their upcoming concert. A few unlikely heroes band together to try to thwart what one believes is the coming apocalypse.
