IMV RELEASES NEW “BEHIND THE PLAYER” DVD
FEATURING JOHN 5 – THE LEAD GUITARIST FOR ROB ZOMBIE

LOS ANGELES, CA — November 18, 2008 — IMV LLC announces the release of a new Interactive Music Video featuring Rob Zombie guitarist, John 5. John 5 has played with great artists including: Marilyn Manson, K.D. Lang and David Lee Roth and his virtuoso talents span many styles, from bluegrass to heavy metal.

The IMV: Behind the Player DVD series -- which features personal music lessons from members of some of the world’s most influential bands like Godsmack, Ozzy Osbourne, Slipknot, Atreyu and Velvet Revolver -- provides music fans with an exciting new way to learn their to play favorite songs: right from the artists that recorded them.

In his IMV: Behind the Player DVD, John 5 gives an intimate behind-the scenes look at his life as a professional musician – including rare photos and video footage. He gives in-depth lessons for how to play “Let It All Bleed Out” and “Lords of Salem”; then jams the tracks with Rob Zombie drummer Tommy Clufetos.

The DVD also includes exclusive VideoTab™, which shows exactly how John 5 plays the two tracks. The video-game-style animated tablature is similar to GuitarHero®, except shows how to play the tracks for real.

“This IMV video is an incredible & easy way to learn songs from your favorite artist!” said John 5, “ I wish I had something like this when I was first starting out.”
