What's That Bombastic Metal Song in the ‘Stranger Things 5' Trailer?
Metallica and the Eddie Munson character might be out of the picture in the fifth and final season of 'Stranger Things,' but judging by the show's latest trailer, released today, heavy metal most definitely is not. Amid now-familiar apocalyptic scenes with the show's cast, we hear a bombastic riff, buttressed by a symphonic arrangement and featuring high-pitched, operatic wailing that is a definitive example of the kind of heavy metal singing often referred to as 'air-raid siren.' More from Variety Roblox Launches New Licensing Platform With Lionsgate, Netflix, Sega and Kodansha as Founding Partners (EXCLUSIVE) Netflix Shares New Details of Philadelphia and Dallas Destinations to Open in Late 2025, Plans Third Venue in Las Vegas David Harbour Loved 'Stranger Things' at the Start but Then Began Asking: 'How Much More Story Is There?... You're Having to Play a Lot of the Same Beat' While the show takes place in the '80s, here they've broken with tradition: The song is one of the most popular tracks by the pioneering hard-rock band Deep Purple, 1970's 'Child in Time' from their pivotal album 'In Rock.' While much of the instrumental backing is apparently new — with lots of strings and synthesizers mostly obscuring the original's organ and guitars — the vocal does indeed appear to be Deep Purple's Ian Gillan, along with brief elements of the band's instrumental work. The song's deafening volume appears to be key to its use, as the trailer opens with the Steve Harrington character (Joe Keery, aka the musician Djo) cueing up a song at the 50,000-watt WSQK radio station, apparently planning to use it as a weapon against the monsters who are gearing up for yet another assault on the citizens of Hawkins, Indiana. Reps for Netflix and Deep Purple did not immediately respond to requests for comment or clarification. 'Child in Time' was one of the early epics of heavy metal, clocking in at nearly ten and a half minutes, with a soft opening (inspired by the song 'Bombay Calling' by the British band It's a Beautiful Day) that builds dramatically in intensity with each verse until the song bursts open with what functions as the chorus: a long, hummed melody that gets louder as Gillan's delivery grows to a full-throated, shrieking wail. The song then segues into a long, progressive-rock-style instrumental section centered around a long solo by guitarist Ritchie Blackmore, before it returns to the quiet section. 'Child in Time,' with its lyrics evoking nuclear war, was first performed publicly by the band in the fall of 1969 and recorded that December, with the album, the band's fourth, being released in June of 1970. Deep Purple's pivotal 1972 live album, 'Made in Japan,' features an even longer version that clocks in at over 12 minutes; the song would be a centerpiece of the band's concerts for the next 25 years, even as the lineup constantly fluctuated. Gillan — whose trademark shriek is also present on the original 'Jesus Christ Superstar' album, in which he played the Jesus character — would become renowned for his sky-scraping wail. Yet the song is no small challenge for the singer, as he admitted to the Spanish radio channel RockFM in 2022. 'I always thought of 'Child in Time' not as a song but more like an Olympic event,' he said, when asked why he stopped performing the track. 'It was so challenging. But when I was young, it was effortless. So we got to the point when I got to about 38 years old, and it just didn't sound right. So I thought, 'Better not to do it badly. Better not to do it.' So it's been the same, and I never looked [back]. 'When I was 38, when I made that decision, I thought, 'My god. I'm nearly halfway through my life now,' and it made me think about the future. Do I want to be a singer for the rest of my life? Well, of course. I must. [But] I don't wanna just be known for this scream, as it was called; I don't wanna be screaming when I'm 80 years old or 70 years old. It's undignified. But here I am, at 77, and I'm still screaming — up to a point. But the control element and the elevation of that note is beyond me, to be honest.'

Mom of five fights tech addiction by pushing families to spend 1,000 hours outside
One thousand hours outdoors? That's the ambitious goal of a homeschool mom of five. Michigan mom Ginny Yurich, spoke with Fox News Digital about her work in inspiring families to turn off the screens and spend more time outdoors and away from technology. Yurich is the founder of '1,000 Hours Outside', advocating for families to aim for their children to spend approximately the equivalent of about six full weeks outside each year. Yurich said her work 'is meant to bring back the balance between real life and virtual life, which is completely needed right now.' 'The average kid in America is outside for four to seven minutes a day, but on screens for four to seven hours,' Yurich said. Her work began as a struggling mother with young children trying to make it through long days. 'A friend of mine told me about this woman named Charlotte Mason, who was actually from the 1800s, who said kids should be outside for four to six hours a day whenever the weather is tolerable, and it changed my life,' Yurich recalled. Ginny Yurich holding her book, 'Homeschooling: You're Doing It Right Just by Doing It.' Facebook/1000 Hours Outside Everything changed from that point. 'We went outside one time in September of 2011, from 9 in the morning till 1 in the afternoon. And the amount of peace that I felt in relief and joy, it was astronomical,' she said. 'I never felt like that before. It was the best day I've ever had. It was [the] first good day I had as a mom.' Yurich spoke about the importance of children spending time outside on their overall development, saying it boosts everything from emotional regulation to physical strength, from mental cognition to spiritual growth. Yurich advocates for a variety of activities for children away from screens besides the outdoors.

'Do what you can to do as much hands-on living as you can during the day,' she said. 'Have friends over, bake food, have these long play dates that extend for all the meals. Go out in your neighborhood, go on a hike, get out all of the water toys, get out the hose, and you do all these things that kids love. And then what happens is, when the day closes, you've run out of time for screens.' Yurich added that kids need more time outside now 'more than ever.' 'At some point in our society, screen time was limited automatically. The screens turned off, the cartoons were over at noon on a Saturday, and so it's tricky because now the parent has to be the one that is in charge of that. The teacher has to be in charge of that, but it really is worthwhile,' she observed. According to her website Yurich said she hopes families are inspired to match and hopefully surpass time on screens with time outdoors. Yurich also hosts 'The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast' and is author of the book, 'Homeschooling: You're Doing It Right Just By Doing it.' Ginny Yurich at the beach with her five children. 1000 Hours Outside In June, The Daily Mail shared a study that indicates more screen time among children results in smaller brains and lower intelligence. In the article, a study was done obtaining information from children regarding IQ, screen time and physical exercise using databases from across Europe. The researchers based in China discovered that from the research, excessive screen time has a negative impact on a child's brain development. 'These findings highlight the critical need to manage and regulate children's media use while also promoting increased physical activity,' they wrote in the journal Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience.

Gunman in 2022 mass shooting at suburban Chicago July Fourth parade to be sentenced in court
Judge Victoria Rossetti (AP) WAUKEGAN: The man who admitted to a 2022 mass shooting at a suburban Chicago Independence Day parade was set to be sentenced Thursday, a day after survivors and witnesses gave emotional testimony about how their lives have changed since he killed seven people and hurt dozens more. Robert E. Crimo III , 24, changed his plea to guilty last month, mere moments before the start of his trial. His case has progressed slowly, in part because of his erratic behavior. That history continued Wednesday when he refused to attend court despite a judge's previous warnings that the case would proceed without him. Keely Roberts, whose 8-year-old son Cooper Roberts was the youngest person wounded and is paralyzed from the waist down, called Crimo "cowardly" for not attending. "You will not hear my grief," she said. "You are now irrelevant." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 3 Reasons to Plug This Into Your Home Today elecTrick - Save upto 80% on Power Bill Learn More Undo Some survivors called Crimo a "monster" while another cited their faith in forgiving him. Many described feeling empty or facing deep sadness since the shooting. Some no longer attend public gatherings. Crimo is certain to spend the rest of his life behind bars. He pleaded guilty to 21 counts of first-degree murder - three counts for each person killed - and 48 counts of attempted murder. Each first-degree murder count carries a maximum life sentence in Illinois. But even in his absence, prosecutors made sure Crimo's own words about the attack took center stage ahead of Judge Victoria Rossetti's sentencing decision. They used the first day of the hearing to reveal parts of the trove of evidence prepared for trial, including key parts of Crimo's videotaped confession. In a recording of the police interview, which defense attorneys tried to have thrown out, a blank-faced Crimo slumped in a chair with arms crossed. He told officers that he briefly reconsidered the attack because of a problem with the gun. He later fixed the weapon. "I walked up the stairs, jumped on the roof and opened fire," he said. Crimo was calm and cavalier, even laughing and joking, said Brian Bodden, a Highland Park police officer. Prosecutors recreated the horror of the day in the upscale community of about 30,000 people north of Chicago, showing video taken along the parade route and asking witnesses to recount the terrifying aftermath of the attack. In one video, a marching band played "You're a Grand Old Flag" before shots were fired. Musicians carrying instruments ran as emergency sirens blared, fleeing along with other attendees. Many cried during the testimony, while others put their arms around each other inside the Lake County courtroom . The seven people killed were Katherine Goldstein, 64; Jacquelyn Sundheim, 63; Stephen Straus, 88; Nicolas Toledo-Zaragoza, 78; Eduardo Uvaldo, 69; and married couple Kevin McCarthy, 37, and Irina McCarthy, 35. Crimo's father, Robert Crimo Jr., a former mayoral candidate, was charged in connection with how his son obtained a gun license. He pleaded guilty in 2023 to seven misdemeanor counts of reckless conduct. He served less than two months in jail.
