MÖTLEY CRÜE: Live Version Of 'Shout At The Devil' Available For Free Download

September 13, 2007

In celebration of the long-awaited, September 18t release of MÖTLEY CRÜE bassist Nikki Sixx's insightful and disturbing book "The Heroin Diaries", Eleven Seven Records opened the vault to release a live EP from MÖTLEY CRÜE, featuring the first five songs from "Carnival of Sin". Fans of Nikki Sixx and MÖTLEY CRÜE can download "Shout at the Devil" for free at this location.

Nikki Sixx was a featured speaker at the 18th annual National Alcohol and Drug Addiction Recovery Month luncheon on Thursday, September 6 on Capitol Hill. Sixx was the first rock musician ever invited to share his story of surviving addiction at such an event. Sixx was invited by the National Association of Alcoholism & Drug Abuse Counselors (NAADAC) and will speak alongside Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Administrator Terry Cline and Center for Substance Abuse Treatment Director H. Westley Clark M.D.

Sixx will publish "The Heroin Diaries" on September 18. The book is taken from actual journals Sixx kept in the late '80s while in the grip of a near-fatal heroin addiction.

A soundtrack album, which Sixx recorded under the name SIXX: A.M., came out last month. It debuted on the Billboard album chart at No. 63, selling 11,000 copies.

Twenty-five percent of Sixx's royalties from the book will go to Running Wild In The Night, a charity he established in conjunction with Covenant House to rescue homeless and runaway youth from the streets.

Sixx will go on a publicity tour to sign copies of the book, beginning on September 18 at Borders in the Westwood district of Los Angeles.
