Don't believe everything you see on social media. Despite Behemoth posting pictures of themselves with producer Ross Robinson on Facebook, and Robinson himself tweeting cryptically about possibly working with the band while in their native Poland, he has issued a tweet to an inquisitive fan who asked if he is producing the black metal band's next record. "Not confirmed!" was Robinson's reply. They're just teasin' us, people. [Twitter]

Rammstein released a six-track single of "Mien Hertz Brent" from 2001's Mutter. It is a new version available only via tunes and includes a digital booklet along with the previously

unreleased track, "Gib Mir Dene Au gen." The band's DVD Videos 1995-2012 is due out on Jan. 15.

Bassist Colin Edwin of Porcupine Tree and guitarist/composer Jon Durant have shared an audio teaser to their collaborative effort Burnt Belief. The eight-track release drops December 21 on Alchemy Records.
