A few years ago, it was reported that Lamb Of God vocalist Randy Blythe was going to star in an action movie Taiwanese melodic black metallers Chthonic were making. Well, now the band has released a song called "Souls Of The Revolution" featuring Randy Blythe which is the theme song of this Chthonic long-in-the-works Taiwanese action-comedy "Tshiong", which will receive a Taiwanese premiere on December 29th. You can hear their collaboration below.

The movie was directed by Wen-Tang Cheng, who has produced a number of documentary, short and feature films.







The movie itself follows the antics of protagonist A-Tek and his quest to save his rural hometown from the claws of Chinese capitalism as he travels from southern Taiwan to the capital in search of his heroes, international metal sensation Chthonic, whom he's hoping will help him stand up for his land by holding a protest concert back home. The story takes an unlikely turn when he discovers his would-be saviors aren't quite as he imagined. Constricted by the demands of their China-friendly sponsors (the aptly named Eyeball Corporation, a riff on EyeCTV, a pro-unification news channel), the band is forced to curb their hot-headed nature and put a hold on A-tek's proclivity for rioting and protests.

Blythe plays himself in the film. In the story, he comes to Taiwan for musical collaboration with Chthonic, but becomes good friends with A-tek. They take part in street protests side by side, and clash with the police several times.
