Has any piece of musical equipment proliferated more, or more rapidly, than the humble electric guitar effect unit? Though there is no official tally, suffice it to say that thousands of stomp boxes, effect devices and processors have been created for the electric guitar over the past 60 years (and that’s not including rackmount effects).

Today, GuitarWorld.com presents the exclusive premiere of a new music video by Michael Monroe. The song, "Stained Glass Heart," is the third single from Monroe's new album, Horns and Halos (Spinefarm Records).

Reverend Horton Heat have premiered the music video for their new single, “Let Me Teach You How To Eat,” and you can check it out below. The song is from the band's new album, Rev, which will be released January 21 by Victory Records. It's their first album since 2009's Laughin' & Cryin' with the Reverend Horton Heat.
