ITP V.026 ONLY ONE PER COFFIN: R.I.P. DOLLY PARTON (COUNTRY ROCK, SINGER SONGWRITER)

noreply@blogger.com (SPAK) — Wed, 26 Aug 2026 10:00:00 +0000

Legendary U.S.A. country and rock singer, songwriter DOLLY PARTON passed away 8/25/2026 of cancer at 80.

DOLLY PARTON supported LGBTQ and many great causes and even donated 1 million dollars to MODERNA for research of the COVID vaccine.

DOLLY PARTON had hits with "Working 9 to 5", "JOLENE" and Whitney Houston's cover of PARTON'S song "I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU".

DOLLY PARTON unleashed a rock album "ROCKSTAR", 11/17/2023 via BUTTERFLY/BIG MACHINE.

FROM DOLLY PARTON (FACEBOOK)

Global icon and humanitarian, Dolly Parton, known to the world as a beloved singer, songwriter, philanthropist, actress, playwright, and author died peacefully today in Nashville, Tennessee. She was 80 years old. Dolly is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 59 years Carl Thomas Dean (1942 – 2025), her mother Avie Lee Caroline Owens (1923 – 2003), and father, Robert Lee Parton, Sr. (1921 – 2000). A rhinestone life that shone bright enough for the world to see, Dolly will forever stand as an inspiration not only through her timeless music and prolific songwriting, but also her wit, warmth, and kindness that made us all feel like family. Dolly Parton’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and resilience. With a seven-decade career, she inspired multiple generations of artists and fans with her music and an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. Her songs will continue to resonate with people of all ages, and her philanthropic work will have a lasting impact. At Dolly’s request, a small, private service will be held for immediate family. Dolly’s fans and friends from around the world are encouraged to pay tribute to Dolly on social media by tagging @DollyParton or by leaving a message at www.dollyparton.com In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at www.imaginationlibrary.com

FROM LOUDWIRE:

REMEMBER THIS? In light of the news of country legend Dolly Parton's death, we're reminded of that incredible moment where her and the Metal God took the stage together at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony in 2022.

During the all-star jam to close out the ceremony, Rob Halford sang "Jolene" with Parton as she donned Judas Priest's signature studded leather look.

Dolly even released a rock album titled 'Rockstar' in 2023, featuring a lot of rock and metal royalty as guests, including Halford.

"I had to do a rock album, because if I’m going to be in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, I’m going to by God earn it!" she told Pollstar prior to the induction ceremony. "I even wrote a song about the whole situation to sing at the ceremony. A fine, cute little rock ‘n’ roll song that’ll probably go on the rock ‘n’ roll album. It’s called 'Rockin’': 'You know I’ve been rockin’ since the day I was born…' You know, listening to Elvis and Journey and Chuck Berry, all those great people. It’s a fine little song, and it’s real rock-y, so I’ll have something fun to play off of, to ease some of the tension."

FROM STANDING BEAR NETWORK:

When a Light Leaves the Circle

My relatives…

Today, the world lost Dolly Parton.

Many will remember the rhinestones.

The unmistakable voice.

The laughter.

And the songs that somehow became part of our own lives.

But I find myself thinking about something quieter.

A woman born into poverty

who never became ashamed of where she came from.

A woman who reached some of the highest places in this world

and still remembered the children

who had very little.

She understood that a song could accompany someone through sorrow.

That laughter could soften a difficult day.

And that placing a book into the hands of a child

could open a door long after she was gone.

Dolly Parton became famous because the world saw her.

But she remained beloved

because she never stopped seeing the world.

She saw working people.

Struggling families.

Children with dreams larger than their circumstances.

She saw those who felt different

and somehow made room for them without demanding

that everyone become the same.

In a time when so many people build their names

by dividing others…

Dolly built hers by bringing people together.

Not through arguments.

Not through anger.

But through warmth.

Humor.

Music.

And kindness.

She once said that her songs would be her legacy.

And perhaps they will be.

But legacy is not only what carries our name.

It is what continues working

after we are no longer here.

It is every child who opened a book

because she believed imagination mattered.

Every person who found comfort in one of her songs.

Every woman who saw that she could be intelligent, strong, generous, and entirely herself.

Every human being who was reminded

that humility does not require us to make ourselves small.

The measure of Dolly Parton’s life

was not simply how brightly she shone.

It was how much of that light

she chose to give away.

Tonight, one voice has grown quiet.

But the songs remain.

The stories remain.

The laughter remains.

And somewhere tonight…

a child will open a book

that arrived because Dolly Parton remembered

what it was like to begin with very little.

That, my relatives…

is how a person becomes an ancestor.

Not by refusing to leave.

But by placing something loving into this world

that continues walking after them.

Journey well, Dolly.

May you find Carl waiting for you.

And may the love you gave so freely

now surround you.

Êkwa.

Walk gently.

Rock In Peace Ms Dolly Parton, singer, songwriter, guitar picker, she did it her way every time. She was a whole lotta country, but you can’t get much more rock and roll than Dolly. Gone to that big gig in the sky. #DollyParton #RockHonorRoll

FROM GARY HOLT (EXODUS/SLAYER):

RIP Dolly Parton, one of my fathers favorite singers

FROM ALEX SKOLNICK (TESTAMENT):

It will be difficult to imagine a world without Dolly Parton. It’s hard to think of anyone so definitively country, yet crossed over completely without ever leaving the genre behind, unlike other icons who began with country roots but came to be known as something else ie Elvis & Taylor Swift (like those two, she became a true ambassador for the guitar). By the time I discovered her, aground the time of the “9 to 5”movie and single, I was already into rock and her music at this time felt a bit mainstream for my tastes. But later, discovering earlier tracks like Jolene (of course) and my favorite, “Daddy’s Moonshine Still,” this era felt like the “real deal”.

She was also as serious and smart a businesswoman as can be. Sure she played up the “ditzy blond” role like no other (and I’d be lying to say my attention wasn’t grabbed as a prepubescent male) but it always felt she was having fun, in on the joke and laughing all the way to the bank. She also put her success to great use as a philanthropist and was by all accounts, an incredibly kind and genuine person. Her recent embrace of hard rock & metal (and Rob Halford and other guests) was fun to witness. It looked as though more such unpredictable experiments were on the horizon and her seemingly eternal youth made that seem possible. Sadly that is not the case. Today’s a day that seemed it would never come.

A true queen has left us You didn’t have to be a country fan to think “I will always love you” about Dolly. RIP

FROM FIGHT FOR A UNION:

Dolly Parton could’ve been a billionaire but instead she cared more about the working class people in her Tennessee community.

While Republican states are banning books from schools, Dolly donated 300 million free books to schools and libraries across the US.

While dozens of Pharma executive make billions price gouging patients who need life-saving medicines, Dolly funded the development of the COVID vaccine out of her pocket. In that one act, Dolly helped save millions of lives in the US and around the world!

Rather than hoard her wealth like predator billionaires Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos, Dolly gave back to her community and built an unmatched legacy. Dolly Parton's life reminds us that tech CEOs and the billionaire class contribute nothing to our society.

FROM JIMMY CARTER PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY:

The Jimmy Carter Presidential Library and Museum joins people across America and around the world in mourning the loss of Dolly Parton.

A proud daughter of the South, Dolly brought joy to generations through her music, her unmistakable humor, and a spirit of generosity that extended far beyond the stage. Her commitment to literacy, education, and improving the lives of others reflected a belief shared by President and Mrs. Carter: that our greatest measure is what we do for one another.

President and Mrs. Carter were fortunate to know Dolly and shared with millions an admiration for her extraordinary talent, warmth, and kindness. From evenings celebrating country music together in Washington to their shared commitment to improving the lives of others, theirs was a friendship rooted in a deep love of people and the place they called home.

Today, we remember an American original and a wonderful friend. Dolly, we will always love you!

Our thoughts are with the Parton family and all those who loved her.

FROM JIM MARCUS:

Fun ways we can honor Dolly Parton forever

1. Never again slut shame anyone. Hussies forever.

2. Never look down on anyone for their appearance or clothing.

3. Drop a book or two off at kids’ schools or libraries when possible.

4. Watch out for any sign of racism. Dolly was raised in a way that she could have easily been racist. She worked hard not to be.

5. Be a good Queer ally. Remember how many times Dolly made her support clear. She wasn’t quiet. People knew where she stood before they needed to.

6. Make things. She wrote 3,000 great songs. She listened to her muse and did it, no matter what was in the way.

7. Be kind. Dolly Parton was rich and famous. She didn’t need to be as kind as she was. But there she was every time.

8. Support health and medicine. No one knows how many lives were saved by her early large donations to develop the Covid Vaccine. The doctors were clear it gave them months head start. Those were all lives she saved.

9. We can try to be there for people, the way she donated endlessly to people after disasters and tried to help them get by.

10. Be kind to animals. Her work to save the Eagle from extinction made a huge difference

FROM CROWBAR:

Rest In Peace Dolly Parton !! What a talented and lovely lady. She definitely kept up with the times!!! She will be greatly missed!! -#dollyparton #rip #country #jolene

FROM SHARON OSBOURNE:

Dolly Parton was an angel.

She was sent here to bring joy, kindness and light to us all.

Her work is done and she’s gone home. We will always love you, Dolly

FROM BILLY JOEL:

Today we have lost a legend.

Dolly Parton has transcended time and become one of those iconic artists who is known for just being Dolly, beyond a specific song or moment in time. I was one of the lucky ones whose music she covered.

Our family visited Dollywood last year. Our children looked up to her and knew her music. The love for Dolly spanned generations. Her work in acknowledging endometriosis before most people knew what it was, and her philanthropic efforts have been inspirational to our family and our foundation.

We will miss her and her presence on this earth, but we will reap all the rewards of her life dedicated to making it a better place.

Love,

The Joel Family

FROM DOLLYWOOD:

With heavy hearts, the Dollywood family mourns the passing of our beloved Dreamer-in-Chief, Dolly Parton. Everyone at Dollywood shares the sorrow of countless people around the world touched by Dolly’s warmth, wisdom and generous spirit.

Dolly’s heartfelt wish was that Dollywood always remain a place of joy, hope and togetherness—a space where families and friends could honor her memory, not with silence, but with laughter, music and shared dreams.

“The greatest privilege of my life has been helping Dolly bring her dreams to life at Dollywood,” said Eugene Naughton, Dollywood Parks & Resorts President. “Dolly’s heart was as vast as the mountains she cherished, and her compassion knew no bounds. She inspired generations to dream boldly and love deeply. While we grieve her loss, we are honored and committed to carry her light forward. Her legacy will continue to shine in every melody sung, every smile shared and every dream kindled within these gates.”

Dolly’s enduring legacy extends beyond her music and generosity to her remarkable work ethic—an inspiration to people everywhere. In her spirit, Dollywood will be open Wednesday as Dolly wanted, always reminding everyone with her signature sparkle -- “the show must go on.” Together, we honor her by carrying forward her message of love, perseverance, and hope.

Those wishing to give in honor of Dolly may consider making a gift to the organization she was so deeply passionate about, Dolly Parton's Imagination Library.

FROM CHRIS ISAAK:

I’m saddened to hear Dolly’s gone. Every time I saw her she seemed so positive and full of energy. In person she was gracious and gorgeous. I remember doing a Kenny Rogers special with Dolly. There was a moment when she and I were backstage. I asked her if she could tell me if a story I heard was true and she said OK. I said I’d heard that she once bought Porter Wagoner‘s song catalog when he was on hard times and a few years later, Porter asked if he could buy his songs back. She said no, she wouldn’t sell him back his songs but would give him back his songs. I asked if that was true. She said yes and nothing more. I think she didn’t like to speak of her good deeds, but being a songwriter, knowing how much songs mean to a writer, it made me have great respect for her. God bless her

Thanks-R.I.P. DOLLY PARTON and thank you.

FROM INTO THE NECROPSHERE:

I'm back after a week away and on this episode of Into The Necrosphere I’m joined by Rhevok Vermithrax, frontman for the almighty US black metal upstarts, Mordant Rhed. We get into the band’s origins, their killer new split with Lord Humongous, playing Dead by Dawg 2, building a band entirely on their own terms, the importance of actually having a personality in 2026, and plenty of bullshit about professional wrestling, Broken Hope, W.A.S.P., music documentaries and Christmas movies.

Then it’s on to the weekly news rant where I’m rounding up the latest singles by Down, Enslaved, Master Fluisteraars, Wolves In The Throne Room, Mother Of Graves and Skuggor. I also run down my favourite album covers of all time, my top 5 Icelandic bands and ten releases by newcomers that prove black metal hasn’t run out of steam.

Episode 329 is out now on all digital platforms.

CELESTIAL SCOURGE: SET TO UNLEASH "EXOMIA”

noreply@blogger.com (SPAK) — Mon, 24 Aug 2026 13:17:10 +0000

Norway based technical, brutal death metal warriors CELESTIAL SCOURGE have revealed the art work and track listing for the bands anticipated new release "EXOMIA”, due to be unleashed soon (release date T.B.A.) via TIME TO KILL RECORDS.

CELESTIAL SCOURGE have posted the bands anticipated new release "OBSERVERS OF THE INEVITABLE", unleashed 2/28/2025 via TIME TO KILL RECORDS.

FROM CELESTIAL SCOURGE:

Celestial Scourge announce NEW ALBUM “EXOMIA”

Norwegian technical death metal force CELESTIAL SCOURGE will return with their second full-length album “Exomia”, due later this year via Time To Kill Records.

Following 2025’s “Observers of the Inevitable”, the new album continues the band’s sci-fi narrative, following humanity’s evacuation from Earth and arrival on a seemingly deserted new world hiding a terrifying reality.

Musically, “Exomia” delivers a sharper and more aggressive take on the band’s technical/brutal death metal, combining crushing intensity, intricate musicianship and memorable riffs.

The album features Devin Swank (Sanguisugabogg) on additional vocals on “Spherical Aberrations”.

TRACKLIST:

1. Welcoming the Wretched

2. Foreseen Systematic Malfunctions

3. The Merciless Conflagration

4. Enshrined in Putrefying Flesh

5. Nebulous Malediction

6. Spherical Aberrations (feat. Devin Swank of Sanguisugabogg)

7. Colossal Maleficent Solar Winds

8. Exomia I

9. Exomia II (The Evacuation)

Release date, first single and more details coming soon.
