Twisted Sister on XBox Game With Fame – TOMORROW 7/1

To celebrate the impending release of this collection, vocalist Dee Snider will play Call of Duty®: World at War™ and guitarist Jay Jay French will play Gears of War® 2 with Xbox LIVE® Gold Members July 1.

The band has released seven studio albums, the most recent of which is A Twisted Christmas from 2006, and numerous live albums and compilations. Stay Hungry is their third album, released in 1984, and it quickly went triple platinum on the strength of two of the most iconic songs of the mid-80s, “I Wanna Rock” and “We’re Not Going To Take It.” Now, on June 30, Rhino will re-release the album with a number of bonuses, including a brand new song, “30,” written by Dee Snider, Marc Beeman, and Sharon Lawson.
