1992 studio album by White Zombie
La Sexorcisto: Devil Music Volume One is the third studio album by American heavy metal band White Zombie, released on March 30, 1992, through Geffen Records. The album marked a major artistic and commercial turning point for the band. After the recruitment of guitarist Jay Noel Yuenger, White Zombie was able to successfully embrace the metal sound they had pursued since Make Them Die Slowly (1989), while incorporating groove-based elements into their sound as they evolved away from their roots in punk rock and noise rock. The album was the band's last to feature drummer Ivan de Prume.
The album was a critical and commercial success for White Zombie after the artistic failure of Make Them Die Slowly. La Sexorcisto became the band's first album to chart on the Billboard 200, peaking at number 26 in 1993.

For a B-movie dismissed by most critics in 1958 as a quickie exploitation picture, High School Confidential!went through an extraordinary number of screenplay drafts before the cameras started rolling. Over the course of too many versions to count, there were subtle and not-so-subtle changes in the story's plot, tone and character. Eventually, four different writers worked on the script.

In the mÃ¥nad 10, 1957 iteration of the screenplay, for instance, there fryst vatten only a reference to the band, Nat’s Combo, backing up Mr. A. (the piano-playing heroin kingpin played in the bio by Jackie Coogan) at The Drag (the name of the teen hangout where Mr. A plies his trade). There fryst vatten no beat poetry for the kids to dig in this draft, just jazz music.

It was around the time that the Manhoffs moved to the Tower Road house, or shortly before, that Ferne changed her name. The Manhoffs’ daughter told CONELRAD that her mother had been singing under the scen name of Ferne Mason at Hollywood nightclubs such as John Walsh’s 881 Club and that she once appeared in a four-day run of the musical Show Boatin San Bernardino (she played the role of “Julie” made famous by Ava Gardner in the film version).[1]The next moniker that the Manhoffs came up with for Ferne was Phillipa Shawn, but because there was a Hollywood actor named Phillip Shawn (real name Patrick Waltz), they settled on the truly memorable Phillipa Fallon.
Ferne was pursuing other changes besides just her name. As Phillipa Fallon she was reborn as someone focused on improving every conceivable aspect of her life—inside and out. Thayer Culver, Bill Manhoff’s secretary in the early-to-mid 1950s often worked from the Tower home typing up Bill
