Hard rock band The Lonely Ones released their new single "Bedroom Door" along with the official music video to all major platforms today, October 14, 2022.

“'Bedroom door' can play out in two ways. If you find me attractive then the song is sexy and flattering. If you don’t then the lyrics are creepy and predatory. It’s up to the listener. Either you found the man of your dreams or a restraining order is the next step," says Marty McCoy.

Rising Singer-Songwriter Chase Wright Releases New Track, "Hurt No More," Out Now

October 16, 2022

RISING SINGER-SONGWRITER CHASE WRIGHT
RELEASES NEW TRACK “HURT NO MORE,”
AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE NOW

“Hurt No More” Comes Off the Heels of Wright Being Named SiriusXM’s
Newest “Highway Find” Early Last Month

Accompanying Music Video to Premiere Exclusively on PEOPLE,
Next Wednesday, Oct. 19 at 10am CT

Off the heels of being named SiriusXM’s newest “Highway Find” early last month, rising singer-songwriter and Indiana native Chase Wright continues the momentum of a breakthrough year with the release of his latest track “Hurt No More.”

Written by Kane Brown, Jeremy Bussey, Ben Johnson, Taylor Philips and Wright, “Hurt No More” details the inner turmoil of longing for a past love, while simultaneously acknowledging its toxic effects. Wright, dubbed a 2022 Artist to Watch by Spotify, takes listeners on an emotional rollercoaster, toggling the line between self-destruction and self-preservation.

Yeah, baby I could let you start
Pouring that gas, striking that match
Setting this bed on fire
Shutting those blinds, hitting rewind
And go where we ain’t been in a while
I could kiss you once, forget the past
Act like this time’s gonna last
And I could, and I would
Let you walk back through that door
But I don’t want to hurt no more…

“Getting out of toxic relationships has always been hard for me, so I wanted to write a song that shows the other side of that goodbye. In “Hurt No More” the subject of the song is finally calling it quits to their toxic back and forth. I hope this song empowers, and inspires listeners to do the same.”

After being discovered posting covers on Instagram, then ASCAP executive Robert Filhart invited Wright to Music City for an ASCAP songwriters’ workshop where he met many of his future collaborators. He began making monthly trips to town to write and eventually would sign his first publishing deal with Toby and Molly Music before graduating from college. The finance major would go on to sign with Filhart and Clint Higham at Morris Higham for management. From Instagram to life on the road, Wright spent 2021 on a 12-city headlining trek for Tin Roof’s “Nashville Hit the Roof” Series. He kicked off a headlining run of shows on Sept. 30 in Bristol, Tenn. which continues through next month.

The artist Billboard noted “continues to impress with original material” released debut album Intertwined last year. Produced by Jared Keim and Zach Abend, tracks like “Lying With You,” which has been getting airplay on SiriusXM The Highway’s On The Horizon show, “Hangin’ On” and “What She Sees In Me” join fan-favorites on the album, including “Why Should We,” Wright’s debut single “My Kinda Morning” which MusicRow celebrated for its “melodies wrapped in spacious production, and rap-inspired cadences,” “Wish You’d Miss Me” that Country Now called “the quintessential heartbreak ballad” and “Drive” which led Sounds Like Nashville to implore listeners to “get in early with…this promising young artist.”

Upcoming Tour Dates
10/22 The Nash News Presents: Live Country Music at Cowboy Up Greenville, SC
11/3 The Whiskey Baron Colorado Springs, CO
11/4 Warehouse 25 Sixty-Five Grand Junction, CO
11/5 Sundance Steakhouse & Saloon Fort Collins, CO

About Chase Wright:
Chase Wright is doing more than make his childhood dreams come true: he’s introducing himself as a bold new Nashville artist with a freewheeling approach to genre, firm footing in relatable storytelling and soft spot for big choruses. Respect for country music’s way around a story without feeling beholden to it defines the Indiana native’s energetic songs, which rely on electric loops and pop-rock chords alongside more traditional sounds made from steel strings and wood. It’s a confident blend that belies the fact that 26-year-old Chase first picked up a guitar as a freshman track star at DePauw University. After graduating with a degree in economics, Chase packed his bags for Nashville, where he has since earned a publishing deal with Toby & Molly Music and signed with Morris Higham for management. Named a Spotify Hot Country Artist to Watch for 2022, fans have been streaming his music to the tune of 120 million times. Wright’s debut album Intertwined is available now.

Think about how small our community is compared to all of the huge festivals, bands, and fundraisers out there. We are having a real, tangible impact, and I am inspired thinking about how powerful we are when we rally together...

WILL YOU HELP US WIN A SPOT ON A CONCERT CRUISE WITH TRAIN, FITZ AND THE TANTRUMS, G-LOVE, AND LISA LOEB??

This incredible festival cruise, Sail Across The Sun, asked fans from around the country to vote on who they'd also like to see in the line-up, and we are one of the 10 most requested acts!!

Even though the cruise is already sold out, we would be so grateful if you felt like voting for us, here!!

About Nate Smith
Featuring a mix of gritty backwoods soul, rock ‘n’ roll swagger and velvet-thunder vocals, Nate Smith is Sony Music Nashville’s latest signing whose personal journey inspired him to be a beacon of country-music hope, an inspirational mission he puts front-and-center. A California native, former worship leader, and lifelong music lover, Smith approaches that mission with a background as eclectic as it gets. Learning guitar at 13, Garth Brooks, Elvis Presley and Bob Seger were among those informing his powerful, fire-from-within vocals, while Michael Jackson made him crave the spotlight and Nirvana gave his sound a jagged edge. He first chased his neon dreams to Nashville in his early 20s – but it didn’t stick. The disheartened Smith returned home and thought he was “100-percent done” with his artistic journey…until a crucible of change burned away the past.

In 2018, Smith lost everything he owned in the devastating Camp Fire which tore through Paradise, California, now known as the deadliest and most destructive wildfire in the state’s history. Although his family was safe, he struggled to cope and turned back to music, hoping that it would help comfort himself and others. Help it did, inspiring a month-long road trip across the U.S. to Music City, writing music and playing dive bars along the way. Soon after his arrival to Nashville, Nate released his biggest song to date, “Wildfire,” and landed a publishing deal with Sony ATV. Since then, he’s released new music including “Sleeve” and “Under My Skin,” which has amassed over 60 million on-demand streams to date. The singer was named a Spotify Hot Country Artist to Watch for 2021 – an accurate prediction as he rounded out the year with a record deal and two brand new songs: “Raised Up” and the viral TikTok hit “I Don’t Wanna Go To Heaven.” The powerhouse vocalist is now making waves with his latest release, "Whiskey On You," which is currently climbing the country radio charts. Nate is managed by Kevin “Chief” Zaruk and Simon Tikhman with The Core Entertainment.

TALLAH Drop New Track & Music Video "For The Recognition"; New Album Out November 18th Via Earache Records

October 13, 2022

Nu-Core quintet Tallah have released the latest chapter of their ongoing world-building saga that will become their sophomore album, The Generation Of Danger (out November 18th via Earache Records). The brand new single is titled "For The Recognition" and lands with a suitably frenetic accompanying music video. Find the new track on streaming platforms HERE and watch the official music video below. Pre-order The Generation Of Danger HERE.

Speaking on the release of their latest track, Tallah frontman, Justin Bonitz, adds

“For The Recognition is a song about justifying why you are doing what you are doing. Blind ambition can only get you so far. If you have a dream, and you want to follow it to the end, you have to push yourself, be confident, and not allow anything or anyone to stand in your way. This is your vision, your story, and you have to do whatever it takes to bring all that hidden power to the surface and use it as fuel to show everyone how amazing you really are. Be honest and be the best”

Tallah founder and drummer, Max Portnoy adds

“When I wrote this song, I made sure the ending pit hit really hard but was simple enough for us to trash our set up live. We took that mindset into the studio as well and smashed tons of lamps, microwaves, vases, etc and put those recordings in the song.”

Tallah's sophomore album, The Generation Of Danger, will be released on November 18th via Earache Records and much like their debut album, Matriphagy, will revolve around around an elaborate and horrific story dreamt up by the band, that continues to unfold in the build up to release. Pre-orders are available now, HERE. "For The Recognition" follows previous singles "Shaken (Not Stirred)", 'The Impressionist' and 'Telescope', which have clocked up over 1.07 million Spotify streams and 308k views on YouTube combined.

The Generation Of Danger is a concept album about a genius scientist who gets fed up with being swept under the run. After the multi-billion-dollar corporation that employs him takes credit for his latest, award-winning invention, he snaps and retaliates against them by forcing them to take part in the greatest experiment the world of science has ever seen.

The album offers fans more than just an album of pioneering nu-core metal. Whilst it will most certainly be lauded for Justin Bonitz's acclaimed aptitude for embodying numerous characters and emotions in his outstanding vocal shape-shifting and ability to meld the ever-blossoming ingenuity of Tallah's intrepid musicians, The Generation Of Danger will reward those who delve deeper into the album and its supplementary content. The album was recorded once more with producer Josh Schroeder at Random Awesome Studio and continues to build the fascinatingly dark nu-core metalbeast Tallah have created and set loose. Pre-orders for the album are available now from earache.com/tallah

n celebration of The Generation Of Danger, Tallah have a stacked schedule of touring across the US. Currently on the road with Attila until October 19th, the band will then hit the road again on Friday, 4th November through November 19th with Drowning Pool.

ABOUT TALLAH

Emerging from Pennsylvania in 2018 and combining the percussive force of second-generation drummer Max Portnoy with the pure, war-torn fury of vocalist and YouTube sensation Justin Bonitz, nu-core gang Tallah are on a mission to revamp and modernize the much-loved sound of popular nu-metal sensations of the early 2000s.

Drawing inspiration from the musical influences of their youth (the likes of Slipknot, Korn and Linkin Park), Tallah fuse the razor-sharp precision of these acts with the raw edges of modern hardcore music displayed by current sensations Code Orange, Vein, Candy and Fire From The Gods.

The band's debut album Matriphagy, a harrowing concept album of brutally disturbing metal, was met with critical acclaim, with Slipknot’s Knotfest crowning it “one of the best metal releases of the year” and Metal Hammer declaring Tallah are ‘leading the charge on the new wave of Nu-Metal”. Matriphagy was also devoured by the fans, with the album racking up 13 million Spotify streams in the months since its release.

2021 saw Tallah indulged fans with a colossal collaboration “Vanilla Paste” (where they were joined by members of the formidable Chelsea Grin, Fire From The Gods and Guerrilla Warfare), team up with Avatar for their North American tour in Sept/Oct 2021, hit up spots at major USA festivals such as Blue Ridge Rock Fest and Welcome To Rockville, and receive nominations for Best International Breakthrough Band at the UK's Heavy Music Awards and Best Live [Streamed] Act at the AIM Independent Music Awards.

Tallah's cruelly ferocious new album The Generation Of Danger, due for release on November 18th, 2022 via Earache Records will only serve to extend their fascinatingly dark nu-core metal further into the metal community.

To date, Tallah have clocked up 16 million streams and 6 million YouTube views. They have over 114k monthly Spotify listeners and have had tracks added to 25 Spotify editorial playlists.

Mike Campbell & The Dirty Knobs, together for 20 years but touring for the first time, perform at the Brooklyn Bowl with a set list that covers the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame guitarist’s career, introducing songs with his current band, including “Wicked Mind” and “Wreckless Abandon” plus “Refugee,” “You Got Lucky” and “Runnin’ Down a Dream” from his days with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.

Multi-platinum singer and songwriter Gavin DeGraw brings a fusion of pop, soul, country, folk and funk to Analog at Hutton Hotel in Nashville performing songs from his latest, Face the River, along with hits “Follow Through,” “Chariot,” “I Don’t Want to Be” and “Not Over You.”

As Judah & the Lion, Judah Akers and Brian Macdonald bring their Alternative Folk sound back to their Nashville roots at Analog at Hutton Hotel performing “Suit and Jacket,” “Take it All Back,” and more including covers of Blink-182’s “All the Small Things” and Tom Petty’s “I Won’t Back Down.”

The Americana band Drew Holcomb and The Neighbors give an intimate performance at Analog at Hutton Hotel in Nashville of “What Would I Do Without You,” “Dragons,” “American Beauty” and more.

Country Blues legend Hank Williams Jr. is joined by special guest/producer Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys for a concert of songs from his latest release, Rich White Honky Blues including “.44 Special Blues” and classics by Robert Johnson, Lightnin’ Hopkins, R.L. Burnside and more.

HAMMERHEDD Premiere "Tunnel" Music Video via Metal Injection - Tour Dates with IN FLAMES This Month!

October 13, 2022

Fraternal thrash metal trio HAMMERHEDD are back with their first new track since the release of their 2021 debut album, 'Grand Currents'. The Kansas City-based band is partnering with their friends at Metal Injection to premiere the music video for "Tunnel", which can be seen below.

Speaking with Injection about the influence on their latest single, the Ismert brothers share: “We wrote this song about a year ago while listening to The Police nonstop. There’s Stewart Copeland-influenced drums, a few Andy Summers-type chord shapes, and a Sting-style bass riff in the midsection. Aside from that, we (as usual) took heavy influence from Tool, Meshuggah, Mastodon, etc. - the gods of the newer generation of metal, as well as the classics; Rush, Zeppelin, Floyd, etc. We like to think we put these influences together in a way that sounds new, fresh, and uniquely HAMMERHEDD."

HAMMERHEDD is very excited to play "Tunnel" on their upcoming shows with In Flames! The band will join forces with the Swedish metal juggernauts starting October 17 in St. Petersberg, FL. A complete list of dates can be found below.

An entry at #1 on the Official German Album Charts with the massive streaming event The Monumental Mass: A Cinematic Metal Event, a celebrated headline show at the legendary Wacken Open Air, impressive shows with Iron Maiden and KISS, as well as their upcoming headline tour across the biggest stages in Europe are just some of the highlights of this last year.

They will be supported by Dragonforce and Warkings.

Just in time for the tour, the successful album 'Call Of The Wild' will be released on November 11 as a special tour edition, as well as the vocal cover album 'Missa Cantorem II', on which eleven well-known international singers reinterpret all songs of 'Call Of The Wild'.

About POWERWOLF:

The story of POWERWOLF, beginning in 2004, reads like a true fairytale, but is the result of the efforts of one of the most hard-working and entertaining live band on the heavy metal planet.

POWERWOLF have secured a remarkable collection of gold and platinum awards, starting in 2015, when they reached Gold status for the first time in the Czech Republic with their album, 'Blessed & Possessed'. Additionally, both 'Preachers Of The Night' (2013) and the subsequent masterpiece 'The Sacrament Of Sin' (2018), as well as the groundbreaking streaming event 'The Monumental Mass: A Cinematic Metal Event' (2022), entered the German album and DVD charts at #1 (a massive achievement for an audio-visual release).

The thrilling DVD, 'The Metal Mass', (2016) also secured the #1 spot on the German DVD charts. Most recently, the new studio album, 'Call Of The Wild', entered the album charts at #2 (and staying for 16 weeks in the charts) while the hit single "Dancing With The Dead" went gold and platinum. The Best Of album, 'Best Of The Blessed', released in 2020, also successfully entered the German charts at #2. POWERWOLF achieved massive success as they headlined large venues with their phenomenal stage performances on the almost completely sold out Wolfsnächte headline tour (2019), as well as numerous summer festival shows in which crowds were thrilled and completely captivated by the wolves and their unique, (un)holy metal mass.

Beyond many others, they’ve also headlined Wacken, Masters of Rock, Summer Breeze – all massive live successes. Once POWERWOLF performs the new studio album, 'Call of the Wild', live at Europe’s largest venues on their upcoming Wolfsnächte 2022 headlining tour – and, for the first time ever, at their long-awaited debut North American shows in 2023 – the whole world will be completely under the sign of the wolfpack once again!

POWERWOLF are:

Attila Dorn – vocals

Falk Maria Schlegel – organ

Charles Greywolf – guitar

Matthew Greywolf – guitar

Roel van Helden – drums

Epica Release New Single "The Great Tribulation" ft. Fleshgod Apocalypse from Forthcoming EP 'The Alchemy Project'

October 12, 2022

With 'The Alchemy Project', out on November 11th through Atomic Fire Records, symphonic metal titans EPICA finish their 20th anniversary year with a bang and will deliver seven new songs that were all created with a unique concept in mind: They invited 13 bands and musicians to co-write and perform the tracks with them and the result is a mind-bending mini-album ranging from melodic hard rock hymns, via progressive melodeath to even the heaviest track you've ever heard from EPICA.

For this new single, which once again thematically dives into apocalyptic realms, the band teamed up with none less than Italy's symphonic tech-death pioneers FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE - a collaboration that many fans have been waiting for, not only since both bands shared the stage on their North American Tour in 2016.

Mark Jansen explains how the new song came to life: "We know the guys and girl from FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE already for quite a long time and toured together. There’s a lot of mutual respect for each other’s music, so when we approached them to work together on a track, they were right away enthusiastic. I did send them some very basic ideas I had for two songs, so they could pick what they liked the most. They ended up using all the ideas and combining them into one song. That was already very promising. From there on, we organized several sessions where we worked on the song together. The process was very smooth and very inspiring. I think the result is a perfect blend between both bands!"

Sleep Signals Announce 'The Death Do Us Part' Tour This Fall!

October 12, 2022

Minneapolis, MN-based rockers Sleep Signals have announced that they will return to the road on the The Death Do Us Part Tour with QUOR, which begins November 30th at The Big Dipper in Spokane, Washington and concludes on December 11th.

Tickets and VIP for the tour are available on Friday 10/14 at www.sleepsignals.net

Sleep Signals, have garnered a dedicated following through relentless touring, their explosive live performances, and their ability to blend catchy hooks with their high-energy songwriting style.

In 2021 the band released a new EP, Ethereal, featuring the single, "Fireproof," which garnered the band's first commercial radio success. The single was featured on Sirius XM's Octane and received spins on 80+ US FM radio stations, spending 11 weeks on the Billboard Active Rock radio chart.

Unfortunately, 2021 also saw the band experience a severe bus accident on tour with POD, From Ashes To New, and All Good Things that left several members in the hospital and rehabbing injuries for months. The band released the music video for "The Return" to commemorate their comeback from the accident and look to get back to the touring circuit as soon as late 2022.

Founded in 2014, the band hit the road in early 2015 and has since played over 500 shows in 45 states. Prior to the accident, the band was coming off of major full US tours with heavy hitters Hellyeah and Nonpoint, as well as Atreyu, Memphis May Fire, Ice Nine Kills, All That Remains, Attila, Escape the Fate, and Like A Storm.

“Sleep Signals embodies the same DIY hustling ethic that Ice Nine Kills has used since the beginning. Great songs, and a work ethic that is quickly making this band stand out" says Spencer Charnas of (Ice Nine Kills).

Alex Varkatzas (Ex-Atreyu) adds, “Seeing Sleep Signals' tireless work ethic and energetic live shows nightly, it’s only a matter of time before this band is a household name."

SOEN RELEASE SINGLE & VIDEO FOR SPELLBINDING SLIPKNOT COVER “SNUFF”

October 12, 2022

From Upcoming Release

'ATLANTIS' - AN ALTERNATE UTOPIA

North American Dates Start November 22nd

Today, the engaging, enchanting, cutting, yet beautiful Swedish metal supergroup Soenrelease the mesmerizing video for their interpretation of Slipknot classic, “Snuff”.

The track is taken from the forthcoming release ATLANTIS, out via Silver Lining Musicon November 18, 2022.

Founding members Martin Lopez and Joel Ekelöf explain their selection of Slipknot’s deeply dark meditation on darkness rejecting love “Snuff”: “We wanted to do something extra special during the ATLANTIS concert. The obvious path would have been to pick an epic progressive song from the likes of Genesis, Pink Floyd etc. Instead, we went for the opposite with ‘Snuff’, a scaled down and brutally honest song that we all love in its powerful sincerity.”

Watch/Listen to "Snuff"

ATLANTIS is a special concert film featuring thirteen of the group’s most popular compositions reinterpreted with live orchestral accompaniment. ATLANTIS was created within the mystic and magical confines of Atlantis Grammofon Studio in Stockholm, Sweden, which has seen a wide range of international artists record, from Quincy Jonesto Lenny Kravitz to Green Day. Formerly a movie house in 1941, it went on to become Metronome Studio (during which time ABBA was born) before becoming Atlantis Grammofon in 1983.

Filmed and recorded on December 10, 2021, Martin Lopez (drums & percussion), Joel Ekelöf (lead vocals), Lars Enok Åhlund (guitars & piano), Cody Lee Ford (lead guitar) and Oleksii “Zlatoyar” Kobel (bass) worked together with an 8-piece orchestra to reinterpret and rediscover fresh energy and elements in classic Soen songs, such as “Antagonist”, “Monarch”, “Jinn” and “Lucidity”.

The end result of this 80 minutes performance is some remarkable new aural refractions of Soen’s greatest material for fans to absorb and enjoy. As has always been the way with Soen: the deepest dives yield the greatest treasures.

Pre-orders Available HERE

The first track released from Soen’s “alternative utopia” was their piece

“Trials”, which can be streamed/watched HERE

Following the success of the IMPERIAL European Tour, the relentless metal quintet is preparing to embark on a twenty-date North American Tour this winter, kicking-off at Chicago’s Lincoln Hall. The tour will also see Soen perform as special guests of Katatonia in Dallas and Austin on December 6th and 7th. The band are excited to be on the road again and show no signs of slowing down in their quest to bring the Soen experience to the world.

“It's a dream come true to finally be able to do an extensive North American tour,” enthuses Lopez. “It's a milestone for any band to tour a continent with such a rich musical history and we are very excited about finally getting to meet our North American audience. See you all there!”

BRKN LOVE Announce New Album 'Black Box' & Share Video for "Under the Knife"

October 10, 2022

OUT NOW ON US TOUR WITH DEAD POET SOCIETY

CANADIAN TOUR WITH THE BLUE STONES STARTS NOVEMBER 4TH

Toronto-based alt-rock band BRKN LOVE are pleased to announce their new album 'Black Box' in the midst of their busy US/CAN touring schedule. It will be released on Nov. 4th and is available for preorder HERE

After the success of their 'Vol.1' and 'Vol.2' EPs, the trend continues with the band’s sophomore album, which once again showcases how well songwriter/front man Justin Benlolo uses all the tools in his arsenal to firmly position BRKN LOVE in the young, modern rock revolution.

Justin says, “We couldn’t be more excited to announce the release of our new LP 'Black Box'. This album is the next evolution of BRKN LOVE. Imagine everything you loved about our band and then turn it up to 11. It’s truly a milestone record for us. After the release of our first record and all the complications that came along with it (namely the pandemic), we really wanted to a chance to redeem ourselves. This is our redemption record. We’re back at full force and we’re not pulling any punches this time.

Making this album was a challenge unto itself. We had come off the back end of several tours and essentially had two weeks to write, record and mix the album. They say diamonds are formed under pressure, and I believe that the added weight forced us to come up with the best songs we have ever written.

The overall theme revolving around 'Black Box' is the concept of learning from your mistakes and bettering yourself because of them. When we were writing the record, our producer Anton Delost and I had become obsessed with flight recorders, that are put into airplanes to keep track of anything that happens. The idea came from how the people will assess a plane crash by what the black box has recorded. It’s a metaphor for our band, our lives and everything we have been through up until this point.

We truly hope you enjoy this piece of music as much we do. Make sure you turn it up and as always, rock on. Thank you.”

Pre-Order 'Black Box' HERE

The four singles that have been released so far from the album have garnered praise from fans, media and radio personalities alike. “Under The Knife” is the most recent, with previous singles “Forever’s Enough”, “Like A Drug” and “Dead Weight” being heralded by BBC Radio One’s Indie Show presenter Jack Saunders as “The new age of rock and roll.”

Meanwhile, BRKN LOVE are currently playing a number of shows across North America in support of Dead Poet Society and The Blue Stones, while also playing some of their first U.S. headline dates along the way.

QUEENSRŸCHE – Release Video for New Single “Hold On”

October 10, 2022

New Album

“Digital Noise Alliance”

Out Now!

Upon the release of their new studio album, 'Digital Noise Alliance', QUEENSRŸCHEhave released a video clip for the song “Hold On”

The band comments: “‘Hold On’ primarily focuses on the misfortune of social media and how this new societal landscape has become a false barometer of ones’ value, essentially, influencing and affecting peoples’ self-worth. Reminding people to not believe everything they see, and to not buy into the glorification of fame, money, and popularity. It strives to empower those that have been blinded by the distorted reality of the glorified social media lifestyles. It is a song reminiscent of older, simpler times.”

In less than a week the band will embark on another US tour with Judas Priest.

Once again teaming up with producer Zeuss (Rob Zombie, Hatebreed), 'Digital Noise Alliance' not only refracts QUEENSRŸCHE’s past accomplishments but also pushes into the band’s future. It is the band effortlessly moving from strength to strength: immediate and thought-provoking.

Quintessentially QUEENSRŸCHE.

“Where a Small Town Meets a Big Country Music Cast” – Variety

Following an invitation to become the newest member of the Grand Ole Opry, Ashley McBryde invites you to the revered Ryman Auditorium to experience Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville, featuring the cast of collaborators and special guests performing songs from her critically acclaimed album, February 15 and 16. Tickets will go on sale this Friday, Oct. 14 at AshleyMcBryde.com.

“In a perfect world, it needs to be a live show,” McBryde shared with AP upon album’s release. “In my heart, it would be at the Ryman, done in the style of a community theater, kind of Prairie Home Companion it. To deliver those performances in that way I think would be really beautiful and a lot of fun.”

Paying homage to the radio programs of yesteryear, McBryde confirms Stereogum’s observation of the ringleader: “Here’s someone who loves and respects the age-old storytelling traditions of country music and who wants to find strange new ways to honor those traditions.”

Developing Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville for the stage won’t require too much stretching, as Variety notes, “It sounds like the beginnings of a solid country music musical,” while Saving Country Music asserts, “You could consider Lindeville just as much like a stage production as you could a studio album, with the cast of characters unfolding before you as the songs transpire.”

Cited by NPR as a “glorious detour into downhome character studies,” the Arkansas-native and her collaborators leaned all the way in on Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville, garnering applause from critics upon its debut.

Produced by John Osborne, Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville includes performances from McBryde, Brothers Osborne, Brandy Clark, Aaron Raitiere, Pillbox Patti, Caylee Hammack and Benjy Davis, with NPR calling it “a mischievous, and mightily pleasing, departure from the prescribed progression of a mainstream country career,” while AP praises, “McBryde and crew created detail-rich storylines with a John Prine level of empathy and compassion.”

“The very existence of an album like Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville is enough to restore your faith in Nashville, however far afield it might have wandered,” Variety boasts, making it “Country music’s most ambitious and oddball album in recent memory,” emphasizes Esquire.

Celebrated by Rolling Stone as “one of Nashville’s most exciting new exports, an ace songwriter who is also an ace singer and performer,” McBryde “has made abundantly clear over the course of her short but fruitful career, she is principally interested in peeling back the layers and speaking the truth,” boasts Vulture.

Summed up by Stereogum, “There’s a whole lot of beautiful writerly vision at work on Lindeville, but it wouldn’t matter if the songs weren’t great. Guess what? The songs are great… A lot of people put a lot of work into this record, and they made something that resonates on a deep, emotional level. Give it up for them.”

“When it comes out,” McBryde shared with Esquire, “I hope everybody laughs a little bit and I hope everybody says ‘What the f*ck?’ a little bit. Sometimes you look and realize, this town is such a mess, everybody here is a disaster. And in the same breath, in that same three minutes, everybody’s okay. And I love those times. Sometimes I wish I could make that stand still a little bit longer—we’re all a disaster, and it’s beautiful. And that’s true whether it’s a small town or a big city.”

About Ashley McBryde
CMA and ACM award winner Ashley McBryde cut her teeth playing country songs in rural biker bars – and it shows. Her 2018 major label debut Girl Going Nowhere (Warner Music Nashville) charmed the New York Times, NPR, Rolling Stone, Paste, The Washington Post and more, all en route to landing a GRAMMY nomination for Best Country Album. McBryde closed out 2019 with ACM New Female Artist, CMT Breakout Artist of the Year, a New Artist of the Year win at the 53rd Annual CMA Awards and two nominations for the 2020 GRAMMYs for Best Country Song and Best Country Solo Performance for “Girl Goin’ Nowhere.” Her follow-up Never Will was tagged by Rolling Stone as one of the most anticipated of the year alongside NPR, who also ranked her Top 10 RIAA Platinum-Certified single “One Night Standards” as one of the best songs of 2019. Produced once again by Jay Joyce, Never Will reveals the witty, confessional, detail-driven songwriting addressing a wide spectrum of blue-collar Southern women’s experience introduced on Girl Going Nowhere is still here, but perhaps even sharper. The album earned McBryde a 2021 GRAMMY nomination for Best Country Album, making Never Will the only album nominated for Country Album of the Year by the ACMs, CMAs and the Recording Academy in the same award season. Her critically acclaimed duet with Carly Pearce, “Never Wanted To Be That Girl,” went all the way to No. 1 and earned McBryde and Pearce the ACM award for Musical Event of the Year. McBryde earned five total 2022 CMA nominations including her third consecutive nod for Female Vocalist of the Year along with Single of the Year, Song of the Year, Musical Event of the Year and Music Video of the Year for her duet with Pearce. The Arkansas-native invites listeners to Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville, a collaborative new project featuring Brothers Osborne, Brandy Clark, Pillbox Patti, Caylee Hammack, Aaron Raitiere and more. Praised by The New York Times as “a fluorescent carnival of pedal steel and thumping guitar that proves McBryde can be a skilled curator, as well as a performer,” Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville is available now. Tickets for the two-night special event Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville Live at Ryman Auditorium will go on sale Friday, Oct. 14.

Dmitry Wild lets go of fear on Jesus & Mary Chain-inspired 'Sweetest Thing' ahead of 'Electric Souls' LP (out Oct. 14)

October 9, 2022

"A sonic and visual storyteller... channeling Johnny Cash, Nick Cave, Jesus and Mary Chain, and Lee Hazlewood" ~ Post-Punk.com

"Shatteringly propulsive garage-psych romper... it kills" ~ Vanyaland

"A rock and roll smash that has both groove and heart. An infectious piece of foot-on-the-monitor rock that blends power with poignancy. It’s precisely what the world needs right now" ~ Big Takeover Magazine

"Bringing together sound, influence, and relevance. Taking the best bits of epic rock, garage, and punk, Dmitry Wild brings the bombastic and writes the drama with this rock musical style production" ~ Sound Read Six

"Wild, swaggering and buoyant... hyper full-band rhythm and feel-good factor" ~ Amplify Music Magazine

As New York-based garage rock purveyor Dmitry Wild gears up to release his 'Electric Souls' album, he brings us the Jesus and Mary Chain-flavored single 'Sweetest Thing', which is about fear and our tendency to cyclically return to that feeling before we can finally overcome it.

The accompanying video was filmed and edited by Strange House Media with a backing video by BamIam. Filmed around Woodstock and Hudson, New York, including on-site at Hudson Brewing and Co, the video features Tommy Love and Robert Paley (of Dmitry Wild & The Spells), as well as appearances by Jennifer Claroscura and Tryst as the witch.

Showcasing his trademark blend of 70’s vintage rock, garage rock and punk ethos, this single follows the lead track 'Liberation' feat. Tryst with its accompanying video, featuring imagery that is symbolic of protest and hope, filmed in Ukraine, Spain, Czech Republic and various US locales, including Florida, Massachusetts, Tennessee and San Francisco.

"'Sweetest Thing' is also about evolving and growing as a person and one day you let the fear go and swim in the ocean rain, but all that is done to punk shoegaze raunchy guitars that are reminiscent of Jesus and Mary Chain and perhaps about of New Order in the bridge to have it all explode in the guitar attack till the end," says Dmitry Wild.

Very passionate about the craft of songwriting, Dmitry Wild used the downtime of the great pandemic to get some serious work done, completing the final writing for this solo album and gradually recording this material. Some material from earlier is also included, dating back to when he was living in California.

With music steeped in garage rock and rock n roll, this album also brings in the flair of 80’s epic synths, bluesy songs, gypsy-inspired compositions, and 70’s-inspired driving tunes.

On this album, Wild collaborated with Strange House Media, their main engineer, Byron Frayne, mixing most of the songs included here and mastering the full album. This collaboration also extended to the two songs released from this album to date - the videos for 'Don’t Need Anybody' and 'Castle Walls' were also created in collaboration with Strange House Media, Byron Frayne and Tryst as editor.

On the live music scene, Dmitry's shows take on a more rocking sound. His band Dmitry Wild & The Spells currently involves drummer Tommy Love, bassist Robert Paley, keyboardist Garret Smelcer and David Varlow on rhythm guitar. When also sometimes joined by notable Rockabilly bassist Chops LaConte, things take on a more theatrical turn.

'Sweetest Thing' is out now, available at all fine online music platforms, including Apple Music, Spotify and Bandcamp, where the 'Electric Souls' LP (out October 14) can already be ordered.

Postpunk outfit Candy Coffins release 'Seaside Girls', a tribute to the playful abandon of youth. 'Once Do It With Feeling' LP out Oct. 21

October 9, 2022

"Lush instrumentation and sombre storytelling. Their gothic post-punk vortex engulfs you. Poignant vocal melodies swoon amongst soft guitars and expansive synths to craft a song that will continue wandering the sonic corridors of your mind" ~ The Record Stache

"A passionately powerful collection that, while steeped in pop nostalgia, is loaded with resonant melodies and an overall denser shimmer...channels the best from 1980s music in modern compositions that are entirely appealing for the here and now" ~ The Spill Magazine

"The band at their considerable best, walking a fine-tuned line between darkness and the silver-lining of new romanticism. Haunting with loads of energy... nervous, edgy vocal delivery" ~ Amplify Music Magazine

"An enthralling and fascinating listen with their sonic imagery, emotional turbulence and new romantic underpinnings" ~ Skylight Webzine

Post-punk new romantics Candy Coffins present 'Seaside Girls', along with a video companion, paying tribute to the playful abandon of youth with a healthy dose of indierock. This is the second taste of the band's new album 'Once Do It With Feeling', a loaded 10-track collection that arrives two years after their 'Somehow Misplaced' EP.

"When the pandemic hit, I decided I would not write a dark song as the first one written during the period. It seemed too easy given the times. It took me three months, but we got 'Seaside Girls' from the effort, which is an upbeat sun-drenched rocker on the new album, 'Once Do It With Feeling'. It’s all the rage," says frontman-songwriter Jame Lathren.

Earlier, the band released 'Every Day A Fresh Atrocity' and an accompanying video created by Jame Lathren, exploring the dark corners and haunting suffocation of a broken relationship.

This album showcases mature strides in songwriting, the band relating the themes addressed both confidently and cohesively. Emotionally and sonically saturated, their music boasts Cure-esque textures and melody, as well as the thematic elements and visceral delivery of The Afghan Whigs.

Lathren notes, "The full album chronicles a relationship from the onset of the first crack to its complete crumbling dissolution. All the feelings and emotions of tumult are captured here, from both persons’ perspectives."

Vocalist, guitarist and songwriter Jame Lathren, a small-town boy who admired artists who were not on popular radio, formed Candy Coffins in 2018 in Columbia, South Carolina. A cultural outcast, his resilience, sensitivity and hyper-awareness of his emotional state would ultimately permeate his own music, getting right to the heart of the emotions surrounding the human condition.

After disbanding his previous post-punk band Crown The Cake, he formed Candy Coffins with hometown guitar legend Tom Alewine (Bachelors of Art), followed by seasoned music scene veterans Alex Mabrey on bass and Justin Purdy on keys, and former Iron & Wine touring drummer Jonathan Bradley. Their dynamic and textured approach has contributed to the band's trademark lush sound, channeling and bolstering Lathren’s emotive songwriting and delivery.

With tasteful nods to Joy Division, The Cure, The Psychedelic Furs, The Afghan Whigs and The Cult, as well as contemporaries like The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Spiritualized, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and Interpol, Candy Coffins’ sound is dark and emotionally restless, but with elements of hope and elation. Defiantly unique, their sound is a welcome respite from musical mediocrity.

'Seaside Girls' is out now, available everywhere digitally, including Spotify, Apple Music and Bandcamp, where 'Every Day A Fresh Atrocity' can also be found. The 'Once Do It With Feeling' LP will be released on October 21 and can be ordered at https://candycoffins.bandcamp.com.

New Album, 'The Final Battle' Out October 21, 2022

As previously announced, legendary heavy metal band Stryper will release their new studio album, 'The Final Battle' on October 21, 2022.

Today, the band has premiered a fourth track from the album, and second music video, "Same Old Story".

'The Final Battle' was crafted during the most challenging time of the band's career. Rather than let the adversity get them down, Stryper accepted these challenges and channeled it into writing some of the greatest songs of their storied career.

One of those great songs is the band’s latest single “Transgressor” off of 'The Final Battle'. When asked about this new single Stryper front man Michael Sweet said, “'Transgressor' is a ride like no other. You take off at 100 MPH and it doesn’t let up until the very last note. It’s definitely one of our heaviest songs yet we wanted to incorporate melody and structure. We’re really excited about this one and we can’t wait to perform it live!”

When it comes to groundbreaking bands in the metal genre, Stryper is renowned for their distinctive brand of “heavenly metal,” extraordinary crossover success, and venerable endurance. The group ascended to prominence in the 1980s with Billboard Top 40 hits like “Calling on You", “Honestly", and “Always There for You” and has maintained a global fan base since.

Stryper’s career album sales exceed 10 million worldwide, including 1986’s multi-platinum release 'To Hell with the Devil'. The band also made history when it notched two songs simultaneously on MTV’s Top 10 with videos “Free” and “Honestly".

While Stryper is known for their Christian faith, their decades plus career in heavy metal has made them much more than just a ‘Christian metal’ band. Sure, that is part of who they are, but at the end of the day, they are simply a long-running and well-respected heavy metal band with a late-career rebirth that has proved their enduring talent and musical skills are well intact.

Today, some 37+ years after emerging from the southern California nightclub scene, Stryper continues to record, tour and perform for loyal fans around the globe. With three original members including brothers Michael Sweet (lead vocals, guitar) and Robert Sweet (drums), Oz Fox (guitar) and newest bandmate, seasoned bassist Perry Richardson (formerly of Firehouse), the group finds itself creating their finest, most powerful music yet.

Stay tuned to Stryper’s socials below for updates on the release of more singles in the buildup to the release of 'The Final Battle' as well as upcoming tour dates from the legendary metal group.
