October 12, 2006

In celebration of GameTap's first birthday and TWISTED SISTER's 30th anniversary, starting today (Oct. 12) at GameTap.com, TWISTED SISTER fans can hear "A Twisted Christmas", the final album of the celebrated band's career.

In addition, subscribers of GameTap, the first-of-its-kind broadband entertainment network from Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. (TBS, Inc.),will get exclusive access to all-new, original GameTap TV shows featuring Dee Snider and the band.

"With GameTap, we are connecting with fans in a way you just couldn't back in the '80s and '90s," said Dee Snider, lead singer of TWISTED SISTER. "It's about building buzz for our CD, sharing our story through the videos and interviews, and talking about the games and music we love."

Along with more than 600 games and 400 shows that GameTap's network currently offers on demand, starting now and continuing through Christmas, subscribers and TWISTED SISTER fans will be able to: Get inside the band's head on October 17, as Dee Snider and Jay Jay French talk about the band's new album, their 30th anniversary and their 9000th performance on a brand new episode of "Quick Hit"; Laugh it up while Dee Snider takes his turn in the hot seat with "Space Ghost Coast-to-Coast" on November 16; Watch an exclusive performance of TWISTED SISTER's new song "Heavy Metal Christmas" on the new show "GameTap Tracks" on November 30; Experience the fun as the heavy metal legends get animated by the twisted minds at Soup2Nuts in a special Christmas episode of GameTap TV's popular series "Computer Lab".

"The programs we are making with TWISTED SISTER are a great example of the way GameTap uses the capabilities of broadband to bring together the different facets of pop culture that our audience is passionate about," said Ricardo Sanchez, GameTap's vice president of content. "Our unique service allows us to satisfy gamers' cravings for top-notch entertainment that can't be found anywhere else and the blockbusters of the video game world old and new."

With hit songs like "We are Not Gonna Take It" and "I Wanna Rock", TWISTED SISTER has shaped the evolution of heavy metal music since they stepped onto the scene 30 years ago. On October 15 the band will be inducted into the Long Island Music Hall of Fame.
