the Wild. The American metal band In This Moment was set to collaborate with Idol on the track "Black Wedding" off their sixth album Ritual; the song's chorus contains the line, "it's a nice night for a black wedding," an obvious homage to Idol's "White Wedding." Due to claimed scheduling difficulties, Rob Halford of Judas Priest was featured on the track instead. Slipknot drummer Joey Jordison's side project – the US horror punk band Murderdolls – reached number 24 on the UK Singles chart in 2003 with their cover of "White Wedding." Deathstars made a version of White Wedding as a bonus track for their debut album Synthetic Generation. This version, played in A minor on instruments tuned down two whole steps, is a diminished fifth below the standard B minor version. In the episode "Dyeing is Easy, Comedy is Hard" (S04E15) of Will & Grace (2002), Will Truman references this song when Elliot, Jack McFarland's son, appears with a short blond hair. In the TV series “American Horror Story”, the song played in season 9, episode 2 of 1984, during the wedding massacre scene featuring Emma Roberts’ character. The song was covered by Rowland S. Howard on his album "Teenage Snuff Film" Alternative rock band Queens of the Stone Age album Era Vulgaris featured a cover of the song as a bonus track on two extended versions of the CD.
