Falling In Reverse Premiere New Music Video
Months after his disappearance from social media, Ronnie Radke, the controversial frontman of the multi-platinum alternative metal band Falling In Reverse, has announced a July 26th release date for the band's new album.
Titled "Popular Monster," the album is preceded by the newly released track "Ronald." The song features guest appearances from multi-platinum rapper Tech N9ne and Alex Terrible, vocalist of Russian deathcore band Slaughter To Prevail. Radke previously stood up for Terrible last summer amid backlash from the LGBTQ community over his divisive comments.
"Popular Monster" will include several of Falling In Reverse's past hit singles, such as the 2x multi-platinum title track, as well as the gold-certified "Voices In My Head," "Watch The World Burn," and "Zombified." Radke's significant other, AEW wrestler Saraya-Jade Bevis, is featured on the song "Bad Guy." The album was co-produced by Radke and Tyler Smyth (known for his work with I Prevail and Lights).
The music video for "Ronald" has just premiered online, directed by Jensen Noen (known for his work with Motionless In White and Black Veil Brides). In a bold move, the album/single cover features Radke's booking photo from his 2012 domestic assault arrest, a charge that was ultimately dropped, with Radke pleading no contest to a charge of disturbing the peace.
