Static-X to Release First-Ever Live Concert DVD -- Cannibal Killers Live -- on October 7, 2008 on Reprise Records

       Special Package Includes Live Audio CD and Video History
BURBANK, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
Los Angeles-based metal quartet Static-X have just announced the
release of their first full-length live concert DVD, entitled Cannibal
Killers Live, which will be released by Reprise Records on October
7th, 2008. The footage was shot during a show in Spokane, WA, on June
2, 2007, shortly after the release of the band's latest studio album
Cannibal. The 17-song set compiled from the tour includes material
from Static-X's entire 14-year career, showcasing old favorites like
"Push It" and "Bled For Days," along with newer songs from Cannibal,
like the album single "Destroyer" and everything in between. Wayne
Static, who dubs his brand of metal "evil disco," posted the following
message to fans on the band's website: "Cannibal Killers Live looks
and sounds absolutely awesome and I can't wait to share it with you!"

   A complete video history will also be included in the special
package, with every video Static-X has ever made, along with an audio
CD of the concert (track listing below). In addition, a
limited-edition package will be released on October 7th that includes
a bonus DVD featuring the band's 1997 concert at Hollywood's famous
Whiskey A Go-Go club, which was recorded two years prior to the
release of Static-X's platinum-selling debut Wisconsin Death Trip.
Pre-order details will be announced shortly on the band's website.

   Static-X garnered rave reviews for their appearances on the
mainstage at Ozzfest 2007. The Los Angeles Times praised them for
pumping out "a tight, ultra-loud set of rhythm-obsessed 'evil disco'."
The Seattle Post-Intelligencer noted that their "straight-up sonic
brutality through feverish riffs and rhythmic bombasts cast
shrapnel-like grenades into the audience," while the O.C. Register
raved: "Static-X found its groove early on, amping up the crowd with
its brand of hyperactive dissonance."

   Cannibal, which was released April 3, 2007, debuted at Number 36
on Billboard's Top 200 album chart, selling more than 30,000 its first
week out. The album has gone on to sell more than 160,000 copies,
solidifying the band's place as one of the metal's pre-eminent
artists.

   Static-X, which is Wayne Static (vocals, guitar, programming),
Tony Campos (bass, backing vocals), Koichi Fukuda (lead guitar,
keyboards, programming) and Nick Oshiro (drums) will go into the
studio this fall for work on their sixth studio album, to be released
in 2009.
