Shatner Drops Heavy Metal Album | Winnipeg News

Ninety-five-year-old Star Trek legend William Shatner is unleashing his first heavy metal album this summer, set to debut at Riot Fest in Chicago — the very festival that chased him with letters for years. Fronting his band The F\\\ers, which includes Ozzy Osbourne’s bassist and Vixen’s guitarist, Shatner’s metal sound blends his iconic voice with reimagined classics and fresh tracks. But this isn’t just a concert — it’s a full-blown Shatner spectacle: fire breathers, a custom “Shag Shack” dressing room, a signed Canadiens jersey, and even a boat renamed in his honor for him to captain. He’s also demanding to sing at a baseball game, co-anchor Chicago’s weather, and have a street food named after him — proving that even at 95, Captain Kirk’s got his sights set on the ultimate rock ‘n’ roll legacy.
