**CROSSBONE SKULLY** have teamed up with **Mötley Crüe** bassist and founding member   
**Nikki Sixx **on their latest track, the seriously red hot “**High On You**,” a song about romantic obsession with an anthemic shout-it-to-the-heavens chorus.

The song and its artwork—designed by **Mark Wilkinson** (Iron Maiden, Judas Priest)—nods to the plight of ‘**Crossbone Skully**,’ the central character in a parallel mythology developed by the band’sfounder and frontman **Tommy Henriksen**. His story is unfolded in **CROSSBONE SKULLY’s **upcoming debut album **EVIL WORLD MACHINE**, set for release on   
**November 22** via **Better Noise Music**. 

The narrative will also expand in a forthcoming graphic novel and animated film, ***Thing #1***, due in 2025, which features voiceovers by **SIXX**.

“*Crossbone Skully is doing something visually unique while blending kickass riffs and great songwriting with this project,*”saysSIXX.* “I’m excited for them and can’t wait for everyone to experience it.”*

**Henriksen **(who’s also the guitarist and musical director for **Alice Cooper**’s band and member of **Hollywood Vampires**) says of the track: “‘*High On You’ shows the taste of young, pure love…the type that gets you hooked on the bug! Love is an everlasting drug!*”

**CROSSBONE SKULLY**’s debut album **EVIL WORLD MACHINE**was executive produced by the legendary **Mutt Lange**, who emerged from retirement just for this project. 

**EVIL WORLD MACHINE** is a rock concept album that echoes similar dystopian visions such as David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars and Diamond Dogs. 

**Henriksen** enlisted a sterling group of supporting musicians for the album including guitarist **Tommy Denander**, keyboardist **Jamie Muhoberac **(My Chemical Romance, John Mayer, Seal), bassist **Chris Wyse** (Hollywood Vampires, **Ace Frehley**, The Cult, Ozzy Osbourne), drummer **Glen Sobel** (Alice Cooper, Hollywood Vampires), the late UFO bassist **Pete Way**, mixer **Olle Romo** (Muse, Bryan Adams) and producer/mixer **Mike Plotnikoff** (AC/DC, Aerosmith). 

Spoken-word appearances appear throughout the album from  A-list actor/musician and fellow **Hollywood Vampires **bandmate **Johnny Depp** as the voice of “The Sorcerer,” **Alice Cooper** as “The Bringer of Light,” **Joe Perry** as “Big Bad Bone Crusher”, **Nikki Sixx** as “The Crooked Crow,” and **Kane Roberts **as “Alpha Watchman.”
