Bobby Jensen and The Dead Cowboys Release the Animated Music Video for The Lake.

The Dead Cowboys want to let everyone know that because of confusion over the band name they are now known as Bobby Jensen and The Dead Cowboys. To celebrate the slight name change Bobby is releasing The Lake the first in a series of four music videos taken from the debut album. The video was done by Andy Pilkington who did the Judas Priest Painkiller video.

Bobby Jensen shares his reasoning for the name change, “The name change came about because over the course of the 20 years since I trademarked the name, Dead Cowboys, other groups around the country had started to use the name so there was confusion with talent, buyers, and fans when they would Google the name and be brought to somebody else’s page. I could have chased them all down and given them cease and desist orders but I kind of had a moment of clarity and felt like the name and the idea and concept had run its course and honestly wasn’t working out to be what I intended it to be again.

It was a great thing that we did as a band years ago, but even when recreating it, it wasn’t the same. More importantly, my own name had grown to be much bigger with tens of thousands of followers already following me as Bobby Jensen, especially since the world knows me from the viral hair fire video as Paul Stanley of KISS so I decided to use my own name and title the album “Dead Cowboys”. Now the legend can live on in the songs and I can create the stories with a lot more freedom and not get the band stereotyped into one thing.”

Talking about the new music video, Bobby adds, “The Lake came about when my friend Mike stopped over and was running some ideas of his own that he had come up with and I honestly don’t remember anything about what he came up with except for the first line of the song was “He sees dead cowboys wait in the night looking to rob a train”, and “boom goes to the dynamite”. Those two things stuck in my head for a while, and I thought it would be cool to have a song about a train robbery so while noodling on my guitar, I came up with the music and the lyrics. Not really knowing what to call the song. I decided to call it “The Lake” since that’s where everybody dies.

The video was done by Andy Pilkington who did the Judas Priest Painkiller video. He has worked with Saxon, Dee Snider, Motorhead and more. He did the first two videos for “bad friends and good times“ and “super country cowboy”. While we were discussing other songs and ideas, I mentioned to him that some of these stories could actually fit together as continuations of the video so he really liked the idea and we took four songs to become the saga of the demon desperado. It will be a four part video that may be a continuation with other songs in the future. That’s where the freedom of the creativity to write songs about the demon desperado and the dead cowboys I had mentioned earlier. Maybe someone would make them into movies someday.”

LOST SOCIETY Unleash Ravishing New Single & Video "Is This What You Wanted"

Finnish metal force LOST SOCIETY give fans another powerful taste of their upcoming album Hell Is A State Of Mind, set for release on March 6th via Nuclear Blast Records, with the brand-new single 'Is This What You Wanted.'
An emotional and thrilling anthem, the track opens with a grand, cinematic intro driven by strings and acoustic guitars before exploding into a storm of raw, screamed-out emotion. Vocalist Samy Elbanna delivers a visceral performance that cuts deep under the skin, capturing both vulnerability and rage in equal measure. Accompanied by an intense music video, 'Is This What You Wanted' visually underlines the song’s anthemic core and emotional weight, further setting the tone for what promises to be LOST SOCIETY’s most compelling release to date.

Frontman Samy Elbanna comments on the song: "This song comes from the feeling when you’ve worked tirelessly for years on your dream to come true and come to life, and you have these sudden realisations of how many important moments you’ve missed and how big the sacrifices have been that you’ve made along the way. A truly bittersweet feeling, because in the end of the day - they’ve been necessary to ensure your focus on your dreams. Nonetheless, it hurts. 
This comes from the heart and we hope it speaks to you and makes you remember that your loved ones would always have hoped for you to go after your dreams.”

ACIDOSIS Announce Album Release Show and North American Tour Dates

L.A. based heavy outfit ACIDOSIS have announced the forthcoming North American tour dates for this March and April in support of their upcoming album Arrival. The album is set to land on March 27th, 2026. This announcement accompanies the release of the band's latest single and album title track "Arrival". 

ACIDOSIS Tour Dates - 

3/11 - Milwaukee, WS @ Falcon Hall* 

3/12 - Chicago, IL @ Sleeping Village 

3/26 - Brooklyn, NY @ Market Hotel

3/27 - Boston, MA @ Haymarket Lounge

4/3 - Miami. FL @ Las Rosas

4/4 - Orlando, FL @ Will’s Pub

4/8 - Los Angeles, CA @ Non Plus Ultra* 

* Ben Katzman only

Tickets: https://app.getpinpoint.io/bkdegreaser

"Arrival" is a fast-moving heavy metal track built on a driving power groove and relentless momentum. The song blends classic galloping metal with modern weight, combining the forward motion of IRON MAIDEN, the density of MASTODON, and the aggressive vocal delivery associated with NUCLEAR ASSAULT. It is melodic, intense, and focused on propulsion rather than excess.

The lyrics take inspiration from the alien abduction sequence in the cult film Fire in the Sky, specifically the fear and helplessness of being taken without control over what happens next. That scenario becomes an allegory for impending doom and moments when resistance is no longer possible, leaving only the option to endure what is coming. In that sense, the song also reflects the tension of what lies ahead on the rest of the album.

As the opening track and title track, "Arrival" establishes the tone and intent of Arrival. It functions as a declaration of presence and direction, setting expectations with a balance of melody, heaviness, and groove. The song serves as both an entry point and a warning, preparing listeners for what follows.

About ACIDOSIS

ACIDOSIS is a heavy metal band originally formed in Miami by Ben Katzman and Diego Edsel during high school. Rooted in thrash, punk, and traditional metal, the band channels the spirit of teenage rebellion through sharpened musicianship and a love of riffs that hit hard and stay stuck in your head. Now based in Los Angeles, ACIDOSIS has evolved into a multigenerational lineup that includes Katzman’s former guitar student Deo Budnevich, who began touring with the band at 14 and now shreds alongside his mentor.

Known for chaotic live shows, politically-charged lyrics, and hook-driven songwriting, ACIDOSIS has shared the stage with acts like D.R.I., NEGATIVE APPROACH, and the JERRY ONLY MISFITS. After years of hiatus and other musical ventures, Katzman resurrected the band with renewed fire, recording the long-overdue debut Arrival, a collection of songs originally written in high school and reimagined with full force.

ACIDOSIS blends the power of early METALLICA and ANTHRAX with the urgency of MUNICIPAL WASTE and the melodic sensibilities of classic IRON MAIDEN. With art by JUAN MONTOYA (TORCHE) and design by PERRY SHALL (GREEN DAY, BLACK KEYS), the project is a full-circle realization of the band's past, present, and future.

This is riff worship without irony. Punk speed without slop. Metal hooks without ego. ACIDOSIS is built to shred, sweat, and scream until the tape runs out.

The Hu Announce Spring 2026 Tour With Apocalyptica

The 2026 concert calendar just got even busier for Hunnu Rock pioneers The Hu and Cello Metal standouts Apocalyptica, as both bands announce today that they'll be hitting the road for a run of shows this May and June. The tour kicks off on May 12 in Silver Spring, MD and will take them across the country before wrapping in Anaheim, CA on June 7. Joining The Hu and Apocalyptica will be platinum-selling Finnish rock band The Rasmus.

Public on-sale for the tour will begin Friday, February 13 at 10AM local time. Official artist pre-sales for The Hu and Apocalyptica will be available starting Wednesday, February 11 at 10AM local time through Thursday, February 12 at 11:59PM. Venue pre-sales will be available from Thursday, February 12 from 10AM to 11:59PM local time. Special VIP packages, including meet and greet experiences and exclusive merchandise, will also be available for purchase.

For tickets and additional information on VIP packages, visit here (The Hu pre-sale code "THEHUN") and here (Apocalyptica pre-sale code "CELLOS"). 

In addition to closing all shows on this tour, The Hu are celebrating the recent release of their latest single "The Real You," which is "the representation of our new album, The Hun," says Temka – Temuulen N (band's tovshuur player, throat singer). "While we have traditional songs that have our signature rhythm in our third album, there are few upbeat, fast songs such as this single. We recorded this song thinking of our ancestors, riding fast on the horse back through the landscape. Listen to this song to express the feelings you have buried inside and feel the overwhelming energy we pass through to you. Enjoy." 

"The Real You" is one of the few songs from The Hu in which Western music components are prominent. As evident in the wording, the song is asking the listeners to not judge others but focus on themselves and to become a better person. Derived from the Mongolian proverb, "Don't worry about what is on top of a person's head, just worry about what is not on yours."

Formed in 1993 at the world-renowned Sibelius Academy in Helsinki, Finland, Apocalyptica began life as a loving, lo-fi nod to Metallica from four classically trained musicians with no greater ambition than to explore their favorite band's music with their chosen instrument. The project would take on a life of its own when they finally released Plays Metallica By Four Cellos in 1996. Unbeknownst to Apocalyptica, they'd just boarded a rocket ship that would propel them through eight rapturously received records, a staggering six million records sold, and a relentless touring schedule that would see them bringing their uniquely symphonic concept of heaviness to every time zone and countless festival stages around the world. Most recently, following the 25th anniversary of their debut record, the band released their latest album, Plays Metallica, Vol. 2, to widespread acclaim.

IAN MUNSICK EXPANDS EAGLE FLIES FREE TOUR WITH 10 DATES ADDED THROUGH SUMMER 2026

As Ian Munsick readies new music in 2026, the Wyoming native is continuing to build on his third studio album, expanding his Eagle Flies Free Tour with 10 new dates through Summer 2026. Kenny Whitmire joins as support on the newly added dates, with ticket pre-sale beginning Feb. 11 using code EAGLE, and general on-sale beginning Feb. 13 at IanMunsick.com. 
 
Beginning this Friday, Feb. 13 in Charlotte, N.C., and featuring 28 dates with special guests ERNEST, Lanie Gardner, Ben Haggard, Ned LeDoux, Tyler Nance, Whitmire and Jake Worthington, the Eagle Flies Free Tour is named after Munsick’s third studio album, Eagle Feather, which was released in 2025. The run will conclude with Munsick’s second headlining show at Red Rocks Amphitheatre on Aug. 25, which marks his first appearance back to the coveted Rocky Mountain venue since selling out his debut in 2024.
 
As Munsick continues to tease a new chapter, he debuted the official music video for “Geronimo,” his first release under WEST TO THE REST RECORDS/Triple Tigers Records, on Friday (Feb. 6). Directed by Ben Christensen, the video was shot in Wyoming by Isaac Spotts and produced by Caroline Munsick. 
 
“This is by far the best music video I’ve ever done. And when I say ‘I’ve’ I mean my visionary wife and the team she assembled to make her idea into a stunning reality,” shares Munsick. “If National Geographic and 70’s country & western MTV had a baby, it would be the music video for ‘Geronimo.’ Filmed in Wyoming by Wyoming’s finest, prepare to walk your heart up to the mountain.” 
 
“I’ve admired Ian and his work for a long time, so filming this video out in the wilds of Wyoming for his amazing new song was such a cool experience,” adds Isaac Spotts. “I’ve lived in Wyoming for a long time, and this song completely captures the vibe of the west. Getting the opportunity to try and bring those lyrics to life in an epic music video was so much fun and such an honor!”
 
“Geronimo” was Munsick's first music release off his next project since he arrived in April 2025 with Eagle Feather, which Holler praised for its "expansive tracks, atmospheric anthems," and Rolling Stone noted “is shaped by the landscape of the West, the stories of Native Americans, and the romantic idea of the cowboy.

CRAIG MORGAN TO HEADLINE NASHVILLE’S RYMAN AUDITORIUM ON NOVEMBER 7

Tickets are on-sale at CraigMorgan.com beginning this Friday, February 13th at 10am central. Craig first played the historic venue in 2022, with surprise appearances by Jelly Roll and Trace Adkins.

His headlining concert stop will take place shortly before Veterans Day. Currently serving as a Warrant Officer 2 in the Army Reserve, Craig is nearing two decades of sacrificial service to our nation, having previously served seventeen years in the Army and Army Reserve with the 101st and 82nd Airborne Divisions.

The singer, author, actor, and soldier has made a name for himself as a country music hitmaker who has amassed more than 2.5 billion career streams and charted over 25 songs on Billboard. With signature hits including “Redneck Yacht Club,” “Almost Home,” “International Harvester,” “Soldier,” “That's What I Love About Sunday,” and his faith-filled tribute, “The Father, My Son, and the Holy Ghost,” the multi-faceted entertainer’s music has formed the soundtrack to our lives for over two decades. His new music, American Soundtrack (BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville), is no exception, with each of the EP’s six songs infused with Craig’s faith and patriotism.

Craig received one of country music's highest honors when he was inducted as a member of the Grand Ole Opry in 2008. Prior to becoming a country music star and TV sensation, Craig spent seventeen years serving our country in the Army and Army Reserve and in 2023 enlisted again in the Army Reserve, continuing his military career as a Chief Warrant Officer 2. He remains an avid supporter of America's military personnel and has made nearly two dozen overseas trips to perform for our troops. Craig is a member of the U.S. Field Artillery Hall of Fame and recipient of the USO Merit Award. In 2018, he was awarded the Army’s Outstanding Civilian Service Medal, one of the highest awards the Department of the Army can bestow upon a civilian, in recognition of his significant dedication to our military men and women around the world. He remains committed to supporting active duty and veteran members of our military through work with Operation Finally Home, the USO and more.  

His emotional and inspiring memoir - God, Family, Country – is available now. In the book, Craig details all aspects from his inspiring life, revealing never-before-heard stories including the impetus behind his recent enlistment in the Army Reserve, how he worked alongside the CIA as a soldier in Panama, fought sex traffickers as an undercover agent in Thailand, forged his own path to country music stardom, and lives his life by the deepest values: God, family, country.

Eva Under Fire Drop "Murder Scene" Single + Video — A Rallying Cry for the Betrayed

EVA UNDER FIRE DROP "MURDER SCENE," A RALLYING CRY FOR THE BETRAYED RELEASED VIA BETTER NOISE MUSIC.

BAND INVITES THE BETRAYED TO SING IN UNISON AND POWER WITH THEM ON UPCOMING U.S. TOUR WITH JERIS JOHNSON + BUTCHER BABIES LAUNCHING FEBRUARY 8

Listening to EVA UNDER FIRE (@evaunderfire) is like hard rock therapy, turning scars and demons into anthems of inner strength. Nowhere is that clearer than on the Detroit band's latest single, the sonically fierce and lyrically razor-sharp "Murder Scene,"  via Better Noise Music.

Stream + download "Murder Scene" HERE.

Watch the lyric video for "Murder Scene" Below.

"'Murder Scene' explores eating disorders, body dysmorphia, self-doubt, and how dreams can become nightmares when the same people who once cheered for you are now criticizing you," says singer and songwriter Amanda Lyberg. "The dream of being on stage comes with a spotlight on my personal flaws. I'm just a body. To be picked apart and judged and perceived. Anxiety is a liar in my head. It tells me I'm not good enough to be here. So, I fight it. I changed my name and my image to prove it wrong. Still the anxiety gets louder. I think it's trying to kill me. In a world so desensitized, it feels like death has been redefined as a minor inconvenience. I'm insecure about my body so anxiety might win. My skin is crawling, and every part of my body feels wrong. Maybe I'll call a doctor and get it altered. Maybe if I don't eat, I'll feel better."

"Murder Scene" is the follow-up to the blistering and inspirational anthem "Awakening," released October 17 via Better Noise Music. It was the first taste of new music in two years from the Detroit, MI quintet.
  

For all of EVA UNDER FIRE's new music, Amanda drew on her career as a licensed therapist to foster an open dialogue among the band members, empowering everyone to be heard during the recording. Her work in therapy started in 2018 when she graduated with a Master of Arts in Psychology degree and went on to work at a mental health clinic in Detroit, Transcendence Behavioral Health (owned by Dr. Stephanie Williams). That same year, her father passed away due to a fentanyl overdose. Her mother survived the same batch that killed her father and has been sober for the past six years. In addition to her thriving and busy music career, Amanda is currently a practicing psychotherapist specializing in trauma work, grief and loss, and addiction recovery.

Her story turned into a 2023 short film, My Rockstar, which used EVA UNDER FIRE music throughout, and has won over 20 awards in several film fests including Orlando Film Fest, Wild Rivers Film Festival, Toronto WILDfilm Festival, and many others.

In touring news, EVA UNDER FIRE will hit the road for a six-week U.S. tour with Jeris Johnson and Butcher Babies starting February 8 in Portland, OR. Later this summer, EVA UNDER FIRE has been announced as a support act tour along with Cody Jinks for Five Finger Death Punch’s 20th Anniversary World Tour 2026.

Return to Dust Drop "Bored (Unplugged)" — WATCH // Touring With Yungblud This Spring

Buzzed-about rock band RETURN TO DUST — Matty Bielawski [guitar, vocals], Graham Stanush [bass, vocals], Sebastian Gonzalez [guitar], and London Hudson [drums] — continue to go from strength to strength with every passing day. The band just saw its latest single "BORED" land in the No. 2 slot at Active Rock Radio. Return to Dust were also nominated for iHeart Radio Music Awards Best New Artist (Rock).

Today, they share the video for the acoustic version of the song, which is just as impactful when stripped down as it is when fully plugged in. Return to Dust decided to record an acoustic version for one simple but critically important reason — fan demand!

Watch the video for "Bored (Unplugged)" below.

"We see a growing desire from our listeners for real, unpolished art," the band explains. "Fans love seeing us perform the songs minimally in record stores and have been banging down our door for an official acoustic version. Because of the fans' reaction, we are peeling back the curtain and releasing a version of the song as it was written, acoustic guitar and vocals."

The band finishes, "'Bored has always been a tender song about change, both the exciting and depressing parts, and we hope the acoustic version gives fans a new listening perspective."

It's been quite a busy and enthralling week for Return to Dust, as the band also announced upcoming tour dates with Yungblud set for spring. RTD will appear on eight dates of the "IDOLS" tour in the U.S. this May, which have already sold out. Additionally, they will take the stage at all major festivals in Europe this summer.

ABOUT RETURN TO DUST:

Every ending sparks a new beginning. Return to Dust embody the sound of shedding the weight of the past while embracing the promise of tomorrow. The Los Angeles-based quartet brings a fresh perspective to alternative rock.

The band settled in Los Angeles to record standout single "Belly Up," which rose through the Active Rock chart and was praised by Distorted Sound as "a grungy, punky thrill ride," while Revolver applauded the group's "Alice In Chains-inspired form of modern-day grunge.” 2024 saw RTD unveil their independent self-titled full-length debut with producer Jim Kaufman [Everclear, Night Riots, Helmet]. 

Return to Dust signed to Lava Records/Republic Records and released their Speak Like The Dead EP in 2025, featuring the breakout single "Bored," which climbed into the Top 3 at Active Rock radio. They quickly became a must-see live act, igniting stages at major festivals including Inkcarceration, Welcome To Rockville, and Sonic Temple, and sharing bills with rock heavyweights Chevelle, Three Days Grace, Breaking Benjamin, and Billy Corgan.

Return to Dust carried that momentum into 2026, earning an iHeartRadio Music Award nomination for Best New Rock Act, tour dates with Yungblud, and announcing their first European appearances at Rock am Ring, Rock im Park, Nova Rock, Download, Graspop, and Tuska Festival. With a rapidly growing global presence, the band is poised to stand at the forefront of the next generation of rock music.

Fight From Within Partners with Arson Theory and Releases New Single “Checkmate” ​

“We’re incredibly excited to work with a bunch of awesome bands and homies over at Arson Theory," the band shares. "It was a pleasure to work with a legend in our local scene for our next single. Checkmate is just the beginning of 2026.”

With Todd Golder at the helm, the single captures both the raw energy of Fight From Within’s live presence and the refined edge of their studio sound.

In 2022, they began tracking new music with Pablo Viveros of Chelsea Grin. They have taken the stage at many key festivals, from Sonic Temple to The Gathering of the Juggles to Inkcarceration. The band is headed into 2026 like a freight train — all gas, no brakes.

SYLOSIS - drop psychological heavy-hitter 'Lacerations' from forthcoming album 'The New Flesh'

SYLOSIS have revealed the third single from their fiercly anticipated record, The New Flesh, due to drop on February 20th via Nuclear Blast Records. The New Flesh is being hailed as a towering testament to destructive riffing, incisive melody and refined brute force.

Today's new single, the psychological heavy-hitter 'Lacerations', showcases SYLOSIS at a career apex - stacked with anthemic hooks, razor sharp, and heavy-as-hell. The track encapsulates brutality and catchiness in perfect symbiosis.   

Josh Middleton stated,
"Lacerations has become a firm favourite amongst those that have heard the new record. After this song came together during the early stages of writing, I felt a huge sense of relief knowing that we had achieved our best song to date. I couldn’t get the chorus out of my head and that’s usually a good sign. Once we had this song under our belts we knew this album would a big step up in terms of our writing abilities.

Musically it calls back to some of the darker melancholic sounds from Edge of the Earth or even The Supreme Oppressor but with a ton of heavy riffs in there. Lyrically, this song is about facing your own mortality and health anxiety. I think a lot of people can relate to spiralling out of control when they think something’s wrong and how differently you look at your life, and what matters most when confronted with those intrusive thoughts."

When the going gets tough, metal gets heavier. SYLOSIS have always been devoted to the fine art of breaking necks, but in recent times, the urgency of their mission has grown exponentially. Still surfing on a wave of acclaim and the effusive fan response to their last album, 2023’s A Sign Of Things To Come, Josh Middleton’s virtuoso wrecking crew are poised to release their latest and best album, The New Flesh. A towering testament to destructive riffing, incisive melody and refined brute force, the band’s seventh full-length offering is a powerful showcase for the state of SYLOSIS in 2025: lethal, uncompromising, and avowedly metal as all hell.  

The New Flesh is a fearsome statement of renewed intent. Harder, heavier and more ruthless than its predecessor, it is full of the kind of explosive, riff-driven anthems that guarantee carnage in the pit. But this is no exercise in mindless bludgeon: instead, Josh Middleton has penned his most evocative and thought-provoking songs to date. From the punishing grooves and breakneck viciousness of the opening 'Beneath The Surface', to the epic conflagration of album closer 'Seeds In The River', The New Flesh is an artful and nuanced take on the pure metal that SYLOSIS hold close to their hearts. This is brutality and catchiness in perfect symbiosis.   

Dark and destructive, but dynamic and diligent, SYLOSIS are on blistering, career-best form on The New Flesh. The purposeful reset that began with The Sign Of Things To Come has evolved into something unstoppable, and the band’s latest work brims with confidence and authority. If it’s skull-shattering, 21st century heavy metal you want, The New Flesh brings it like never before.  

The Amity Affliction Announce New Album "House of Cards" Out 4/24 + Share Title Track

Embracing a new chapter of artistry as a band, The Amity Affliction announce their long-awaited new studio album, HOUSE OF CARDS. 

Releasing via Pure Noise Records on April 24, HOUSE OF CARDS is the first full-length outing from The Amity Affliction to feature clean vocalist Jonny Reeves, who became a permanent addition to the lineup in 2025. 

Bolstering Joel Birch's signature fusion of intense and open lyricism, the arrangements and vocal duality provided by The Amity Affliction throughout the DNA of this new album is set to reaffirm the band’s status as one of heavy music's most dynamic groups.

Today, the band shares the first taste of the new album — the impactful title track "House of Cards." A song penned by Birch for his brother and sister (and himself), taking stock of the relationship shared with their mother — a central figure at the heart of the album.

Open about the difficult nature of the relationship shared between mother and children, Birch unpacks the thematic nature of "House of Cards," saying, "Our mother died in 2024 and none of us had a healthy relationship with her. She was very self-involved, aggressive, abusive in our early years, and in her later years, spent a good amount of time trying to put a wedge between the three of us. Thankfully, once she passed, the three of us actually became closer as we realized we had individual, but shared trauma related to her."

With lyricism directly related to experiences Birch and his siblings experienced during their formative years, "House of Cards" is a song that matches its sonic intensity with emotional weight threaded through its poignant words. 

The single, both as an individual entry and as part of HOUSE OF CARDS' broader tapestry, is a strong moment of acknowledging trauma but in doing so, navigating it with a redefined perspective on life and human relationships. 

Released alongside the track, is the music video for "House of Cards," directed by Daniel Daly.

Watch the music video below:

As demonstrated throughout 2025 with both music ("All That I Remember") and a huge return to touring across North America, Europe, and the UK, the hunger The Amity Affliction share with their global audience when it comes to new material remains fervent. 

Across a two-decade strong career, the band has continued to take strides forward in delivering music that has brought them countless accolades including five ARIA #1 albums, over 1 billion streams, and numerous sold-out tours in both domestic and international markets. The release of HOUSE OF CARDS in 2026 is set to be a powerful addition to a catalogue that remains one of Australia's best. 

In addition to their current Australian tour dates, The Amity Affliction has also been announced as part of the HELLBOUND HEAVY METAL CRUISE for 2027. Setting sail in January 2027, the band will perform alongside heavyweights including PARKWAY DRIVE, ALPHA WOLF, I KILLED THE PROM QUEEN and THY ART IS MURDER.

INFERI Joins DEFEATED SANITY's North American Spring Tour as Direct Support, Replacing Vulvodynia

Extreme death metal masters INFERI are proud to announce that they will now be joining DEFEATED SANITY as direct support during the band's North American spring tour, in which they will be replacing Vulvodynia. The run will feature additional support from New Zealand’s Organectomy on all dates while Excresence, Scasm, and Horrific Vision will appear on select stops. The full itinerary can be found below while tickets are available HERE.

DEFEATED SANITY comments, "Unfortunately due to outside factors Vulvodynia are no longer able to make this tour. Thankfully Inferi were able to step up here and replace them on short notice."

ICYMI: INFERI will be unleashing its latest studio album, 'Heaven Wept,' on April 10, 2026 via The Artisan Era! The band has recently released the pummeling first single, "The Rapture of Dead Light," along with a music video!

The clip sees INFERI vocalist Stevie Boiser, guitarist/vocalist Malcolm Pugh, guitarist Sanjay Kumar, and new drummer Nate Bigelow embark on an Indiana Jones style quest for the elusive Bigfoot. Watch the band square off with the battle-jacket wearing and headbanging entity to find out if their intricate riffs are a match for the enigmatic beast below.

'Heaven Wept' can be pre-order and pre-saved HERE.

In addition, INFERI is now embarking on the "All So Vile" trek through the UK and Europe as support for CRYPTOPSY along with 200Stabwounds and Corpse Pile. The tour has been selling out at nearly every stop and is still decimating the continent until the final stop in Paris (FR) on February 15.

In addition, INFERI will be performing at producer Dave Otero's inaugural Flatline Festival, which takes place June 13 - 14 at the Oriental Theater in Denver, CO. More info and passes can be found HERE.

Since the explosive success of Inferi's critically-acclaimed and chart topping 2018 full-length, 'Revenant,' the death metal battalion has continued to relentlessly churn like a raging maelstrom, dominating everything in its wake with the band's melodic and virtuosic approach to the genre. 'Heaven Wept' picks up where 2021's 'Vile Genesis' left off, putting forth the same mind-bending compositions and other-worldly musicianship that has set the band apart from their contemporaries. Inferi has risen to become a dominant force among modern American death metal acts since their reunion in 2011. 'Heaven Wept' is a master class in progressive extremity and is certain to make its mark as one of the greatest death metal offerings of this decade.

ABOUT "SABATON — THE TOUR TO END ALL TOURS":

"Sabaton – The Tour To End All Tours" means a great deal to the band. This show was recorded at a completely sold-out Ziggo Dome in 2023 in Amsterdam, where thousands of fans came together to share an unforgettable night.  For those who know SABATON's story, this concert carried special significance. When they first played in the Netherlands six years after they formed, it was in front of a handful of people. Looking back at that moment and comparing it to the packed arena of Amsterdam's Ziggo Dome is truly mind-blowing.

Legends marks a bold evolution in SABATON's storytelling, as they plunge headfirst into the heart of some of history's most formidable and enigmatic figures, including the Knights Templar, Genghis Khan, Lü Bu, Julius Caesar, Napoleon, Joan of Arc, Vlad The Impaler, Hannibal, Miyamoto Musashi, Senusret III and Gustavus Adolphus.

Listen to Legends here or get your hands on a physical copy of the album here.

Mayhem Drop Video for "Realm of Endless Misery" — WATCH

Black metal's most influential and legacy-defining entity emerges once again with their seventh studio offering, Liturgy of Death.

With this release, Mayhem reaffirm why they remain one of the most relentless pillars of extreme music. After more than four decades shaping the genre's evolution, the band now turns its creative gaze toward the inescapable presence of mortality.

Liturgy of Death explores the philosophy of mortality with stark, uncompromising clarity. The album presents death not as an ending, but as a universal law that touches all life and exposes the fragility of human existence. This impermanence becomes a call to live with full intensity, for every gain and loss ultimately falls back into the same silence. Echoing ancient philosophies, the album portrays life as a transitional state and death as a gateway to a higher form of being, while the solemn, dark beauty of death permeates the entire work.

Stream "Realm of Endless Misery" HERE.

Attila comments on the new track, "'Realm of Endless Misery' is the fourth single from the new Mayhem album and presents a state of human existence in which suffering is not an exception but a governing principle. The song portrays human life as a closed realm sustained by repetition, fear, and manipulation, where time itself becomes a mental trap and hope slowly drains from consciousness. It does not tell a story and offers no redemption. Through its mantra-like structure and cold, oppressive imagery, the track confronts the listener with the mechanics of misery, revealing a world in which destruction is not an endpoint but a permanent condition. Released as the third single in advance of the whole album, 'Realm of Endless Misery' deepens its unified dark vision and brings the listener one step closer to the final revelation."

PRE-ORDER LITURGY OF DEATH HERE

ALBUM COMES OUT THIS FRIDAY

Death Over Europe Headliner Tour starts tomorrow— tickets and more info HERE.

With Necrobutcher, Hellhammer, Attila, Morten Bergeton Iversen, and Ghul locked into a unit tighter than ever, Liturgy of Death celebrates Mayhem's own legacy, a continuation of the raw and uncompromising sound that defined their beginnings. The result is a merciless record — dark, fast, and unrelenting — that captures the band in their most dangerous and vital form. 41 years since their formation in Langhus, Mayhem remain a defining force in Norwegian black metal, continuing to shape the sound they helped create.

LORDS OF ACID ANNOUNCE A NEW ALBUM. A NEW TOUR. A NEW ERA.

Electronic provocateurs LORDS OF ACID return to the stage on April 25 with their headline U.S. run, the Cheeky Freaky Tour. The tour marks a bold new chapter for the iconic act—one that honors their legacy while delivering a fully realized,

uncompromising live experience rooted in the band’s unmistakable aesthetic and provocative spirit.

Spanning 29 cities across the United States, the Cheeky Freaky Tour is a high-voltage, multi-artist spectacle featuring both headline club dates and major festival appearances,

including Sick New World (April 25, Las Vegas) and Ritual Noize Fest (May 2, Denver). Each night is designed as an immersive, visceral experience—intense, confrontational, and unmistakably LORDS OF ACID.

“For the first time in eight years, there is truly new material,” says Praga Khan, founder and creative force behind LORDS OF ACID. “A new album is coming, and the ‘Cheeky

Freaky Tour’ ushers in a new era for the band, with respect for the past, but with a clear focus on the future.”

The “Cheeky Freaky Tour” is not a nostalgia tour. The tour reaffirms everything LORDS OF ACID have stood for over decades: a fearless, idiosyncratic approach to electronic music, a strong and unapologetic identity, and a live show that confronts, seduces, and surprises.

Led by the current Acid Queen Carla Harvey, LORDS OF ACID deliver a set in which iconic tracks such as “Pussy,”

“I Sit on Acid,” and “Crablouse” seamlessly merge

with new material. The show focuses on tension, dynamics, and presence, without distancing itself from the band’s roots.

The tour—a blend of pounding electronic beats, glam chaos, club culture, and pure attitude—is supported by a carefully curated line-up, each act contributing to the depth of the evening in its own way:

• Dead On A Sunday brings raw, modern gothic energy.

• Princess Superstar is known for sharp lyrics, and a distinctive, club ready

swagger.

• Tony and the Kiki add alternative, fashion-forward pop flair.

• MZ NEON opens the night with pulsating, underground-inspired electronic sounds.

Audiences will also experience the first live introduction to material from the upcoming LORDS OF ACID album, which features appearances from Princess Superstar and

Tony and the Kiki.

Known for decades of boundary-pushing sound and performance, LORDS OF ACID continue to redefine what a live electronic show can be: loud, visual, playful,

and fearless.

MALEVOLENCE ANNOUNCE CO-HEADLINE SPRING TOUR WITH GUILT TRIP

This spring, UK heavyweights MALEVOLENCE and GUILT TRIP are crossing the Atlantic to co-headline the 2026 'United Kingdom Metal and Hardcore Across North America 2026' tour. The journey begins March 31st in Detroit and spans 17 dates, including stops in Nashville, Houston, and two exclusive Canadian shows. The tour concludes in Milwaukee on April 23rd, with CHAMBER set to provide support for the entire run.

MALEVOLENCE comment, “Where to begin! Our first ever proper US headline tour after all these years and it is only right to be sharing the stage every night with some of our closest friends in the game GUILT TRIP from Manchester. With both bands proudly flying the flag not only for UK metal & hardcore but also more specifically the NORTH OF ENGLAND.

“Our relationship with GT is very well documented - from numerous tours together, collaborating on music & even helping to release their last record, it feels extremely fitting to be venturing onto foreign shores side by side for a big, bad co-headline debut - In our opinion a true demonstration to the American people of what real northern UK heavy music has to offer. We strongly advise you don’t miss this shit.”

"We’re so excited to return to the states with our good friends in Malevolence," states GUILT TRIP vocalist Jay Valentine. "it feels great to come back so soon and share a headlining slot with our UK brothers. After just one run, North America already feels like a second home to us and we can’t wait to see you all again!"

ABOUT MALEVOLENCE

MALEVOLENCE have never waited for permission. From the underground to festival main stages, they’ve built their reputation on sheer force of will, crushing live shows, and an unshakable foundation of heavy riffs and harder work. Now, with their fourth studio album Where Only The Truth Is Spoken, Sheffield’s finest step into a new league.

Recorded in California at Dave Grohl’s legendary Studio 606, the album was tracked through the iconic Neve 8078 console, the same desk that captured game-changing records like Nirvana’s Nevermind, Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours, and Tom Petty’s Wildflowers. For a band that’s always pushed forward without compromise, it was the perfect setting to carve out a record that represents everything MALEVOLENCE stands for. The album marks a new level of songwriting precision without sacrificing the band’s trademark weight. Working alongside Grammy Award-winning producer Josh Wilbur (Lamb of God, Gojira, Trivium), the result is MALEVOLENCE at their most punishing, urgent, and anthemic.

Lyrically, Where Only The Truth Is Spoken reflects the principles that MALEVOLENCE have lived by since day one—honesty, loyalty, and integrity. These are not just themes woven into the album but values the band holds in their personal and professional lives. This record doesn’t deal in facades or empty gestures; it’s an unfiltered expression of the struggles, victories, and unshakable brotherhood that have carried them this far.

Konan Hall | Guitar / Vocals
