Rock and Metal Legends Shine at Shoreline Amphitheatre

October 15, 2025

The night at Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View was one for the books, a true celebration of rock and metal that spanned generations. The show started off as Corrosion of Conformity hit the stage with raw intensity, setting the tone for what was to come. Their heavy riffs and tight grooves had the crowd chanting C-O-C with fists in the air.

As the amphitheater filled to capacity, Alice Cooper took over and transformed the venue into his own twisted theatrical world. Watching Alice perform is never just attending a concert, it’s stepping into a darkly whimsical rock opera, rich with storytelling, shock, and production.

The song was performed by Leo Unnermark on vocals, Parker Halub on Lead guitar and Stefan Bailet on rhythm guitar and the session directed/filmed by Christian & Jean-Babtiste Lamet (METALXS/HARDFORCE). The event was organized by Olivier Garnier. The video was shot during a promotion day at Hard Rock Cafe Paris (before its permanent closing) on May 15, 2024. They comment about the track, “It’s no secret that we are inspired by the early beginnings of Heavy metal music. “Dreamer Deceiver” is a Deep cut from Judas Priest early work off of the album “Sad wings of destiny” that speaks to the diversity of the band and the genre as a whole. While many bands might cover the classics, we decided to take on the challenge of playing an acoustic version of what we believe to be one of their greatest songs. This cover also helps to showcase our own musical abilities and diversity that is part of our sound” [Read More]
