Fan-filmed video footage of the reactivated MURDERDOLLS - the band consisting of Joey Jordison (SLIPKNOT, ROB ZOMBIE) and Wednesday 13 - performing their new single, "My Dark Place Alone", during last night's (Tuesday, June 15) headlining concert at The Glass House in Pomona, California can be viewed below.

In his review of last night's show, Rick Florino of ARTISTdirect writes, "'My Dark Place Alone' careened with a cathartic chaos as Wednesday belted out the massive hook mid-song. Powered by a riff that could've come off NINE INCH NAILS' 'Broken' or MARILYN MANSON's 'Antichrist Superstar', the song elicited fist-pumping across the floor. Meanwhile, 'Drug Me to Hell' kickstarted a whirlwind moshpit with its thrash elegance and dirty drumbeat. 'Death Valley Superstars' packed similar heat with an incendiary groove and another devilishly catchy chorus."

Los Angeles rockers VAMPIRES EVERYWHERE! — whose sound has been described as an infusion of music genres, including screamo, dance, pop and hardcore — will support the MUDERDOLLS at The Glasshouse in Pomona, California on Tuesday, June 15 and the Key Club in West Hollywood, California on Thursday, June 17.

VAMPIRES EVERYWHERE! recently entered the studio in the band's hometown with producer Fred Archambault (AVENGED SEVENFOLD, DEFTONES) to begin recording its full-length debut for a fall 2010 release via Century Media Records.

Commented vocalist Michael Vampire: "The band is excited to take two days off from the recording process to play with the MURDERDOLLS. We greatly respect and admire this band and it should be a great two shows.

"We have been hammering away in the studio on the new record and things are going amazing! Fred really gets our artistic vision.

"Right after the tracking is done in the studio, we will be leaving on a six-week tour throughout North America, which we are super-excited for. The tour is called 'The Sacred Ceremony Tour' with BLACK VEIL BRIDES, MODERN DAY ESCAPE and GET SCARED. It should be an amazing tour and we're excited to meet all of our fans.

"Everyone should definitely come out next week and watch us rock out with the MURDERDOLLS and also catch our show on the road all summer long."
