GWAR Invades Australia for Good Things Festival 2025 + Announces Official Action Figures from Trick or Treat Studios
Shock rock overlords GWAR storm back to Australia this December for Good Things Festival 2025, their first Down Under shows in over a decade and they’re bringing the carnage in more ways than one. Alongside their milestone multimedia release, 'The Return of Gor Gor,' GWAR has teamed with Trick or Treat Studios to launch a new series of officially licensed action figures, perfect for fans who want to bring the Scumdogs’ chaos home.
The band’s Australian return follows the release of 'The Return of Gor Gor,' a grotesque, hilarious, and gloriously violent audio/visual assault celebrating 40 years of GWAR’s intergalactic mayhem. Featuring the brutal new single “Tyrant King” and a 32-page comic, the release resurrects GWAR’s legendary reptilian war beast, Gor Gor, in all its blood-drenched glory.
Jizmak Da Gusha says:
“GWAR is obtaining work visas as undercover plumbers to unclog all the disgusting items Aussies put down their drains. But, the truth is, we have been asked to come back to Australia to fix all of their government’s problems. Should take about a week. I’m secretly excited to go down under because it’s shark season and lots of people are being eaten, which is very entertaining for me. Fun vacation all around.”
The Berserker Blöthar adds:
"For the second time in 40 years, GWAR is going down under. That’s right. December 2025, we invade our favorite penile colony. So throw another corpse on the barbie and get ready for metal, mutants, blood, and trickling rivulets of laughter! Because we are the true gods of shock rock, and we are coming to Australia!"

San Francisco's OCTAVIAN WINTERS unveils 'Hermine' ahead of A Murder of Crows appearance
San Francisco post-punk outfit Octavian Winters presents their new single 'Hermine', an invigorating song that channels the band's edgier energy. Erupting with a wall of sound from the first notes, this is the first song written for their debut album, anticipated for early 2026 via Stratis Capta Records.
Formed in 2022, Octavian Winters is guitarist Stephan Salit (Thrill of The Pull), drummer Randy Gzebb (Thrill of The Pull, Love Club), bassist Jay Denton and Ria Aursjoen (AURSJOEN) on vocals and keyboards. Fusing a visceral and ethereal sound, they create haunting textures and channel half-remembered stories from an indifferent metropolis, shadows and lunar energy looming over a concrete maze.
Now critically acclaimed, the band gained a solid reputation with their 2023 debut EP 'The Line or Curve', and 2024's 'Nebula / Velveteen' collaboration with Mark Pistel (Consolidated, Meat Beat Manifesto), their tightly crafted songs running the gamut from the ethereal to the dark and driving. This new offering, 'Hermine', visits those harder edges.
"Hermine was wonderful to write and sing because it has a real no-holds-barred energy about it. I was also able to revisit some of my metal roots, in terms of vocal delivery, which was both fun and cathartic," says vocalist Ria Aursjoen. "The lyrics reference the novel Steppenwolf by Hesse, and explore the nature of the fragmented psyche and passionately urges the freedom of self acceptance."
Randy Gzebb says, "It feels like the song is moving forward with unstoppable momentum. This is one of my favorite songs to play live". Stephan Salit adds, “I started out writing this as an homage to Geordie Walker (R. I. P. ) but it took on a life of its own and well, here we are".
Just as their forthcoming album, 'Hermine' was produced, recorded, mixed and mastered by William Faith (The Bellwether Syndicate, Faith & the Muse, Christian Death) at 13 Studio in Chicago.
Octavian Winters' members have a rich history of collaborating and touring with notable artists, including Nine Inch Nails, Killing Joke, Lords of the New Church, Savage Republic, Christian Death, The Frozen Autumn, Everything Goes Cold and Black Tape for a Blue Girl.
Octavian Winters will be performing at A Murder of Crows Festival in New York on August 30, joining Pink Turns Blue, Vision Video, Ritual Howls, Hallowed Hearts, Astari Nite, Soft Vein, Altar de Fey, Nox Novacula, The Brickbats, The Long Losts and 45 Grave. West coast fans can also enjoy their October 31 show at Bar Sinister in Los Angeles for their legendary Ghostly Halloween Ball.
As of August 12, 'Hermine' is available everywhere digitally, including Apple Music, Spotify and Bandcamp. Concert tickets can be obtained at https://octavianwinters.com/shows

JOHN MORGAN DROPS “FRIENDS LIKE THAT” TOUR LINEUP — REAL FRIENDS & REAL STORIES
4x #1 hitmaker John Morgan is ready to turn up the heat this fall with his highly anticipated “Friends Like That” Tour, and today he’s revealing the crew who will be getting the crowd amped and ready for an unforgettable night. Named after his breakout, chart-topping single featuring Jason Aldean that’s taken over playlists, radio stations and speakers across the country, the country music maverick invites out Brent Anderson, Jeb Gipson, and Ryan and Rory for an epic first-ever headlining run that will span 20-dates nationwide.
With the captivating artist-on-the-rise’s reminiscent “Kid Myself” climbing the country radio charts, John shares: “This tour is a celebration of the friends who’ve had my back. These are the folks I’ve written songs with, produced my debut album with and shared a hell of a lot of life with. We’ve all been grinding together, and now we get to go out on the road and celebrate how far we’ve come.”
Brent Anderson co-produced and co-wrote alongside John Morgan on his critically acclaimed debut album, Carolina Blue — a project MusicRow hailed as “a greatest hits collection in waiting,” and the Tennesseanpraised as “a studied, hit-laden road to Nashville country stardom.” Anderson - an artist, songwriter and producer with his own impressive resume - truly helped John mold the soul of this album, helping him shape a debut that feels less like a first chapter and more like a breakout moment years in the making.
When John first moved to Nashville, he shared a house with longtime friend and fellow artist Jeb Gipson. One afternoon, while John was mowing the lawn, he got a life-changing phone call — Jason Aldean was on the line, offering him a record and publishing deal. Thinking it had to be a prank, John dropped everything, sprinted inside, and found Jeb to make sure he wasn’t imagining it. That day, Jeb became a first-hand witness to the moment John’s career officially took off.
Labelmates, John and Ryan and Rory first crossed paths at CMA Fest, where they quickly bonded over the shared experience of being new artists navigating Nashville’s ten-year town. What started as casual conversation backstage turned into a fast friendship rooted in music and hustle.
Lauded as an “accomplished songwriter” by People and “Music City Songwriting Star” by the Tennessean, the multi-talented and electrifying entertainer is ready to bring his album full of stadium-ready anthems to the fans with his “Friends Like That” in tow. Hitting major markets like Atlanta, Chicago, Nashville, San Diego and more, the tour kicks off October 9 in Buffalo, NY. Get tickets HERE.

Watch it below.
Vocalist Jukka Pelkonen says, "'My Pain' is a story about the toughness one faces when adversary appears. It is about the rising emotions of anger, fear, and apprehension, basically the time fight or flight mode shows its face. It is common among street gangs and soldiers but also between friends, lovers, and amongst family ties. It is a story of conquering these feelings and becoming your own master."

Wind Walkers Announce New EP 'I Don't Belong Here' Out October 3 via Fearless Records + Drop "Silk & Static" Official Music Video
It's a great day to be a Wind Walkers fan! The band announced their forthcoming EP 'I Don't Belong Here' out on Friday, October 3 via Fearless Records. In celebration of the news, the quintet has dropped their new track "Silk & Static"and the official music video. Amidst glitchy electronics blended with crushing riffs and seamless melodies, the song's central theme is especially relatable to those who have a neurodivergent condition. When asked about the inspiration behind the track, Wind Walkersvocalist Trevor Borg shared:
"Writing "Silk & Static" was like staring into a mirror and unpacking every frustrating thing about myself. It came from a place of not understanding why my mind felt so chaotic all the time and why I kept getting in my own way. After recently being diagnosed with ADHD, the pieces started falling into place, and it shed a different light on the song. It was very eye-opening in the fact that I wasn't alone, and that this kind of internal noise or “static” is something others live with too. At its core, I wrote this song to offer comfort to people who can relate to feeling overwhelmed and misunderstood, while trying to make sense of themselves."
Pre-save 'I Don't Belong Here' at the link here, stream "Silk & Static" here, and watch the official music video below.

Pagan Folk Band FAUN Unveils New Single "Nimue (Featuring Chelsea Wolfe)" + Music Video
The Pagan Folk band FAUN are excited to unveil their new single, "Nimue (Featuring Chelsea Wolfe)," taken from their upcoming album, 'Hex,' due out on September 5th. The new single arrives alongside a music video, available below.
With “Nimue,” FAUN delve deep into the legendary world of King Arthur, telling the tragic tale of Nimue’s love for the sorcerer Merlin. Joined by exceptional American artist Chelsea Wolfe, whose soaring vocals infuse the track with mysticism and ethereal beauty, the band crafts a hymn to magic, marked by striking musical dynamics. “Nimue” leads us down an enchanted path, moving from intimate, narrative verses to explosive passages driven by pounding beats, electric guitars, and cascading hurdy-gurdy flourishes.
Watch the Music Video for "Nimue (Featuring Chelsea Wolfe)"
After being signed to Universal Music from 2012 to 2019, where they achieved gold and platinum success, FAUN released their first album on their own label, Pagan Folk Records, in April 2022. Titled 'PAGAN,' the album was met with enthusiastic praise from both press and fans, debuting at number three on the German album charts through a partnership with distributor Believe/Soulfood. Looking ahead, the band has announced plans to return to their musical roots with mystical, archaic folk and enchanted ballads on their forthcoming album, 'Hex,' set for release on September 5, 2025.
FAUN’s twelfth studio album 'HEX' explores themes of female magic, pagan myths, and ancient rituals across a variety of cultures. The title draws from the German word "Hexe" (witch) and the Old High German “Hagazussa,” meaning “one who walks between worlds.” The album focuses on pre-Christian legends from the Celtic, Anglo-Saxon, Germanic, Norse, and Turkish traditions, featuring stories such as Merlin and Nimue, Viking sacrificial rites (“Blot”), and ancient spells like “Ylfa Spere.”
Blending medieval instruments (hurdy-gurdy, bagpipes, lute, harp) with modern beats, synthesizers, and diverse global influences, 'HEX' showcases FAUN’s signature fusion of ancient and contemporary music. Collaborations include Turkish singer Fatma Turgut, Swedish musicians Daniel Pettersson and Daniel Fredriksson, and a darkly atmospheric feature with Chelsea Wolfe.
FAUN previously announced their World HEX Tour 2025, a journey that will take them across the globe, including stops in the USA, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Europe, and the UK. The band will also appear at some of the most prestigious festivals of 2025.
Tickets (and VIP-tickets) are available HERE.
About FAUN:

New Music from Dreamwake 'The Lost Years'
DESPISED ICON REVEAL NEW ALBUM SHADOW WORK + RELEASE MUSIC VIDEO FOR NEW SINGLE 'OVER MY DEAD BODY'
Canadian deathcore pioneers DESPISED ICON return with their seventh full-length album, Shadow Work which will be released on October 31, 2025 via Nuclear Blast Records. Their first new music in six years, the album stands as the band's most fine-tuned and dynamic effort to date, balancing relentless speed, crushing grooves, and morbid melodies, while remaining true to their signature blend of extreme death metal and hardcore grit.
Today, DESPISED ICON release their ferocious new anthem entitled, 'Over My Dead Body' featuring Matt Honeycutt of KUBLAI KHAN TX. The single features eerie atmospherics and a crushing breakdown that confronts fear and doubt with iron resolve—a battle cry of self-belief, pain, and purpose. Watch the music video directed by Didier Charette, below.
DESPISED ICON's Alex Erian comments, "Even though our first jam dates back to the fall of 2000, it wasn’t until 2002 that we started playing shows and putting out music. From day one, Despised Icon has always stuck to a 'if it’s not ready, it’s not ready' mindset with everything we create. Fast forward almost six years since our last album Purgatory, and not much has changed. We’ve taken our time once again, and now we’re finally ready to turn the page and release what we feel is our most fine-tuned and dynamic record to date—staying grounded in the sound and spirit we helped define. We can’t wait to share new music with you all very soon."
Nuclear Blast American Label Manager & A&R Tommy Jones comments, “The wait was well worth it! This is a fantastic album and I cannot wait for the world to hear it in it’s entirety. Great things come out of the shadows.”

Shadow Work was produced by the band’s own Alex Erian and Eric Jarrin, while Christian Donaldson (CRYPTOPSY, SHADOW OF INTENT, SIGNS OF THE SWARM) handled mixing and mastering. The album marks a significant chapter for a band whose core lineup has remained largely unchanged since its inception. It’s a deeply introspective record that reflects both personal growth and the turbulence of the world around us. The artwork for the album was created by Eliran Kantor (HATEBREED, THY ART IS MURDER, CAVALERA).
Earlier this week, DESPISED ICON announced they would join headliner's SANGUISUGABOGG on their U.S. tour. Joining the package as support are DEFEATED SANITY, and CORPSE PILE.

Attack Attack! Raises The Stakes With "Attack Attack! II" - Out Now!
Metalcore titans, Attack Attack!, have today unleashed their brand new album, "Attack Attack! II" via Oxide Records. It's been over a decade since fans last got a full-length ride with metalcore's favorite troublemakers, and the wait is officially over! Packed with high-octane riffs, explosive energy, and a few surprises only Attack Attack! could pull off, this album is more than just a comeback. Fans can listen to "Attack Attack! II" HERE.
Accompanying today's release is yet again, another monstrous single, "Karmageddon", which happens to be one of Attack Attack!'s heaviest tracks to date. A relentless dose of the band's signature intensity and attitude, packed into a ferocious, unapologetic onslaught that showcases the band at their most unyielding.
As the streams continue to climb and the hot takes around "Attack Attack! II" multiply, Attack Attack! weigh in:
"We guarantee this album sounds even better if you hit repeat.”
In celebration of their upcoming record, "Attack Attack! II", the band will be embarking on the ONE HIT WONDER Tour next week, where they'll be bringing their chaotic new era to cities across the US. Fans can purchase tickets to the ONE HIT WONDER Tour now HERE.
Prior to today's album release, Attack Attack! also released four massive singles, "Dance!" featuring Will Ramos of Lorna Shore, "Chainless", "ONE HIT WONDER", and "i complain on r/metalcore". After blindsiding fans with a fake-out country remix, the real version of "Dance!" delivered sheer chaos and pit-stirring aggression as they teamed up with one of deathcore's most recognizable voices, Will Ramos, for their first ever official feature. The first two tracks sent metalcore into a tailspin, sparking conversations from fans to top-tier music outlets - Revolver, Metal Injection, Rock Sound, etc - who hailed Attack Attack! for their fearless return. "ONE HIT WONDER" and "i complain on r/metalcore" kept the momentum surging, setting the tone for an audacious new era that is loud, unavoidable, and fearlessly sarcastic.
Formed in 2007, Attack Attack! has become a staple in the metalcore scene, amassing over 100 million streams across major streaming platforms on multiple chart-topping records. As torchbearers of the genre, the band continue to push the boundaries of metalcore while solidifying their place in its ever-growing legacy. Known for their no-holds-barred approach, Attack Attack! remain unpredictable as ever, with more bold twists in store for the year ahead.
Be sure to stay tuned for more Attack Attack! news coming very soon.

ABOUT ATTACK ATTACK!
If you went to Warped Tour in the mid 2000’s, shopped at Hot Topic, or were active on Myspace; then you have heard the name “Attack Attack!” While the band’s early career was relatively short-lived, their reputation has done nothing but grow since the band went on indefinite hiatus in 2013. Known for incorporating dance/electronica music with metal, the band consistently bent the rules of songwriting. They took the sounds they liked and crafted seemingly incompatible genres into anthems for local Ohio scene kids, and later, audiences across the globe. After years of silence, Attack Attack!exploded back onto the scene in 2020. They’re here to remind you that rules are made to be broken, adversity is meant to be overcome, and that legends never die.

FUSION JAZZ PIONEER JOHN McLAUGHLIN and earMUSIC celebrate the release of “LIVE AT MONTREUX JAZZ FESTIVAL 2022” Friday, August 8th, 2025
Formats include Blu-ray+2CD Digipak, 2LP Gatefold, Digital Download Album release accompanied by new video “Mr. DC”
Today, John McLaughlin and his long-time band The 4th Dimension share “Live at the Montreux Jazz Festival 2022” worldwide via earMUSIC on Blu-ray+2 CDs, Heavyweight 2 LP Gatefold, and all digital platforms.
DISCOVER THE ALBUM Below.
This stellar performance was captured when John and his band took to the stage of the revered Auditorium Stravinski on July 11th, 2022 with special guest pianist and vocalist Jany McPherson.
“This night was very special. I am so glad it was recorded. It was a kind of magical night. There was something extra in the music and in the air.” – John McLaughlin
John’s history with the revered Montreux Jazz Festivalspans 52 years as a headlining artist and sometime guest performer. Now available as a Blu-ray+2CD Digipak, 2 LP Gatefold and digital download, those who had the honor of being there can relive this monumental performance and those who couldn't be there now have the chance to see what they missed.
“This was a great night. Everybody was on. There was a vibe going on in the band and the audience felt it. It was a vibe going on between the band and the audience and it was outstanding.” -John McLaughlin
A perfect example of this vibe runs through the new video for “Mr. DC.” SEE THE VIDEO Below
Dedicated to Modern Drummer hall of famer Dennis Chambers (who has played with John, P-Funk All Stars, Steely Dan, and Bill Evans amongst many others) “Mr. DC” is playful interplay between Jany McPherson’s delightful voice and piano and both Gary Husband and Nicolas Viccaro on drums.
John McLaughlin brought a fusion of world music, jazz, and blues to the mainstream with his Mahavishnu Orchestra and recordings with Santana and The Rolling Stones as well as his groundbreaking “Live in San Francisco” albums with Al Di Meola and Paco de Lucia.
“Live at Montreux Jazz Festival 2022” is a masterclass in jazz fusion that travels all these worlds on one prestigious stage.
