New Band PREYRS Release Video for Debut Single "Wave of Wisdom"

July 13, 2025

PREYRS, a visceral new force in alternative rock and metal, announce their birth onto the world stage, with their debut single "Wave of Wisdom" — out now via Pelagic Records.

Watch the music video below.

Stream the single here.

Fusing raw alternative rock energy with the weight of metal, the quartet's music is an electrifying clash of aggression and euphoria, darkness and uplift, chaos and control. Elements of artists as disparate as Nine Inch Nails, Chelsea Wolfe, Sonic Youth, and Julie Christmas combine to delirious and heady effect.

Debut single "Wave of Wisdom" is a perfect introduction to the band, encapsulating their fierce yet gothic anthemic sound — where healing and rage collide in perfect harmony. A defiantly discordant clash of alt-folk slide guitar, and Mormecha's pummeling industrial percussion, "Wave of Wisdom" provides a great bedrock for Montgomery's incandescent delivery of uncertainty.

Of the new single, Montgomery comments, "'Wave of Wisdom' is about turning pain into power — tracing the roots of trauma through our own history and the wider collective to find truth, strength, and healing. It's a raw reclamation of voice, born from the fire. It was written during a stark Canadian winter on Wolfe Island, looking out over the frozen expanse of Lake Ontario, a setting that mirrored the stillness, intensity, and clarity of the song's creation. Self-produced by PREYRS drummer Michael Mormecha at Tree Song Studios, Ireland and mixed by Alex Loring."

Busking on the streets of Belfast from the age of 15, Montgomery met multi-instrumentalist Mormecha a few years later and they've been working together ever since. Both songwriters in their own right, Michael fronted renowned Irish post-hardcore outfit Mojo Fury and worked as a producer for artists including The Bonnevilles, Mojo Fury, and Joshua Burnside. They're joined as PREYRS by longtime guitarist Nolan Donelly and new bass player Ciarán McGreevy.

Known for electrifying live performances, PREYRS will make their UK festival debut at Bloodstock Open Air this August, as well as appearing at Stendhal Festival in Ireland. Nominated as "Best Live Act" and "Best Artist" at the Northern Ireland Music Prize, Montgomery's undeniably fierce and captivating frontperson energy has been her secret weapon often described as "otherworldly" or "a force of nature.'"For those seeking the epic, the healing, the aggressive, and the unrelenting pulse of alternative rock and metal, PREYRS is it.

PREYRS will be supporting punk legends New Model Army across Europe this winter.

LANIE GARDNER ANNOUNCES SOPHOMORE ALBUM FADED POLAROIDS, DUE SEPTEMBER 5

July 11, 2025

Named by the Recording Academy as a “2025 Artist to Watch,” Lanie Gardner has officially announced her highly anticipated sophomore album Faded Polaroids, set for release on September 5 via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. Alongside the announcement, the North Carolina native has released the album’s powerful lead song, “High Divin,’” featuring legendary Fleetwood Mac co-founder Mick Fleetwood on the drums. Listen below.

A full-circle moment for the 25-year-old artist — whose breakout came from a viral cover of “Dreams” (now at over 100M views) — “High Divin’” is an atmospheric anthem with a heart of self-reflection. Wrapped in shimmering guitars and soaring vocals, it captures the emotional leap of the journey of self-sabotage, while honoring the path that led her there.

“It’s one of the most important songs on the album for me,” Gardner shares. “I was going through a pretty rough patch and needed to give myself a little tough love.”

Produced by Oscar Charles, Jonathan Singleton, Chris Ganoudis and Don Miggs, Faded Polaroids expands on the raw honesty of Gardner’s 2024 debut A Songwriter’s Diary, offering a sonic scrapbook of self-discovery, family roots, romantic twists, and personal healing. Across 18 tracks, Gardner blends country storytelling with indie-rock grit, small-town pop, and boundary-free emotion — a genre-bending vision uniquely.

“I created the idea of Faded Polaroids using actual polaroids. Some brand new, others nicotine-stained, withered, torn and worn from being passed down through the years,” says Gardner. “It felt like zooming out on my whole life and finally seeing the bigger picture. These snapshots — these songs — are the most beautiful parts of me. They tell the story of where I come from, who I come from, what I’ve learned and who I’m becoming. I hope these songs encourage people to take the time to make their own version of that too. I think it’s important that we all do.”

Born and raised in the tiny Appalachian mountain town of Burnsville, NC, Gardner grew up in a family of natural musicians, learning to sing from her mother and guitar from her father. A loner-turned-artist with a gift for turning diary entries into cathartic anthems, she eventually left home for Nashville, chasing the Grand Ole Opry dream of her late grandfather — a dream that comes full circle with her Opry debut on August 6. Get tickets here.

Following her recent Polaroids EP and breakout debut album — which earned her a “2025 Artist to Watch” nod from both the Recording Academy/GRAMMY and Amazon Music — Faded Polaroids finds Gardner stepping fully into her sound. From the soul-cleansing “Takin’ The Slow Ride” and smoldering “Concrete Cowboy,” to the rootsy, nostalgic title track and breezy “Love You Like Appalachia,” the album captures a rising star in her magic hour — honest, unfiltered, and unforgettable.

Gardner will bring Faded Polaroids to life on the road this summer and fall, with a run of headlining dates and festival appearances, including support on select shows for Gavin Adcock. Visit laniegardner.com for ticket information.

Miranda Lambert & Chris Stapleton’s Duet “A Song To Sing” Out Now

July 11, 2025

Country music giants Miranda Lambert and Chris Stapleton deliver their first true duet collaboration with “A Song To Sing,” reflecting the truth of giving one’s soul to the music and heart to the one at home. Written together with Jesse Frasure and Jenee Fleenor, the song available everywhere now is set to impact Country radio on Monday, July 14. Listen below.

The sound is indelible, rising from an era that’s shaped the last five decades of Country music. When Lambert and Stapleton emerge from the low-key shuffle, smoky Wurlitzer clouds and silken guitars, it’s obvious that “A Song To Sing” is destined to join the list of most-beloved classic Country duets. Trading lines before soaring together on the chorus, the longtime friends deliver a poignant message about finding peace and purpose in love – and in the music made along the way:

Lambert and Stapleton boast a combined 14 GRAMMY, 33 Country Music Association and 59 Academy of Country Music awards and have each influenced generations with their singular artistries and distinctive creative points of view. Produced by GRAMMY-winning Dave Cobb, “A Song To Sing” allows Lambert – who passed her ACM Entertainer of the Year title to Stapleton in 2023 – to witness the singular reality they share as they harken back to an era of music epitomized by Ronnie Milsap, Waylon Jennings and especially the classic Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers duets.

Of the respected visionaries, Pollstar writes, “at a time when Country is so many things, Lambert and Stapleton seem both a true north and a hinge for the future…Musically robust, they want to make actual Country music with their roots firmly planted, but with the ability to create on their own terms. It’s not fighting Music Row as much as fighting for greatness.”

Colorblind Share "Letdown" + "Misery Loves Company"Double Single

July 11, 2025

Austin, Texas quartet Colorblind — vocalist Travis Moseley, drummer Tyler Moseley, bassist Nicholas Asper, and guitarist Justin Page — have just dropped new double single "Letdown" and "Misery Loves Company." Because twice is nice!

Listen to both songs here. Watch the video for "Letdown" below.

"Letdown" explores "the inner conflict of still caring for someone who consistently hurts and disappoints you," shares Moseley. "Despite the pain, there's a lingering attachment — the feeling that the other person might be a missing piece — but that connection is built on illusions, lies, and emotional neglect."

Regarding "Misery Loves Company," the singer explains, "This song is about the slow unraveling that happens when you’re caught in someone else's darkness — how love turns into survival, and how pain shared doesn’t always mean pain healed. It's a breaking point anthem for anyone who's been drained by trying to save someone who won't save themselves."

Colorblind will open for Dayseeker on select dates, as well as supporting Catch Your Breath. Festival appearances at Inkcarceration and Louder Than Life are also on deck. All upcoming live shows are below.

With lyrical depth matched only by their ascendant vocals, Austin, Texas dreamcore staples COLORBLIND have quickly become a name to know in the heavy music world. They've racked up some 48 million Spotify streams — with 20 million of those last year alone — thanks to their rumbling rhythm section, earth-shaking riffs, and airy grooves. That hard-hitting musical combination forms the backbone of "NEEDLE EYE," Colorblind's debut single for Solid State/Tooth & Nail. Building on the success of the 2021 hit "Motionless" and self-titled 2022 EP, "Needle Eye" announced a new era for the band with a triumphant widescreen sound, car crash dynamics and visceral, open-nerve lyricism.

With the band currently in the process of finishing their debut full-length, scheduled for release in 2026 via Solid State/Tooth & Nail, Colorblind are newly emboldened by the next phase of their career and poised to bring more of this life-affirming mentality to audiences around the world — mining the inextricably complex emotions found within us while showcasing the tremendous musical and personal growth they've experienced over the past few years.

'We've been wrestling with who we want to be sonically, because we have a huge array of things we want to do," Moseley explains. "How do we condense all of those things down into one sound? We don't even know who we're supposed to be, and that's the fun of it."

THE JOTUNN Present Cover of "Suicide Nation"

July 9, 2025

Melodic death quintet THE JOTUNN present a ferocious take on AT THE GATES's "Suicide Nation". The ensemble from Ohio, US, cultivate an intense sonic experience by compiling symphonic elements on top of melodic death metal and melodic deathcore: "We really like to wear our influences on our sleeve and let those influences breathe life in to songs that can stand on their own." "Suicide Nation" is the first of a tripart offering landing over the summer of 2025.

"AT THE GATES is a HEAVY influence for this band", vocalist Paul Kahan explains. "Slaughter of the Soul is a defining album for us as listeners and players. We along with so many other bands have used this album as a blueprint for how melodic metal should sound for a long time.

Kahan also has a personal connection with "Suicide Nation". Kahan recalls the first time he heard the track: "I was absolutely blown away. I remember that being a really pivotal moment for me personally with music. It became one of my favorite songs of all time and I remember in the back of my head that if I ever had the opportunity to do a cover this would be the first one I pitched. I basically begged the band to do it."

About THE JOTUNN:
Based out of Cleveland and Columbus Ohio, THE JOTUNN formed in 2021 after guitarist and songwriter Shawn Kahan presented a number of demos to Paul Kahan. Soon producer Cole Martinez (ABIGAIL WILLIAMS, WHITECHAPEL, ABORTED) was on board taking up the role of bassist and producer of their music. Nick Amato (ATOMIC WITCH) performed drums on the band's debut album Graveworshipper (2022), prior to Adam Biats joining the line-up. The outfit was awarded the Columbus Artist Grant in 2023, and subsequently in 2025. THE JOTUNN's EP Summoner arrived in 2024, and is set to be followed in 2025 by two cover releases and a new original track. Cole left the band in June 2025 on good terms, leading to the arrival of Leo Debevc on guitar and Londyn Hager on bass.

Paul Kahan - Vocals
Shawn Kahan - Guitar
Leo Debevc - Guitar
Londyn Snow - Bass

Alt-pop songstress Celeste Corsano moves forward and upward with new 'Stuck' single

July 8, 2025

Presenting the third in a trilogy of singles this year, alternative pop artist Celeste Corsano presents 'Stuck', a tender exploration of being caught in the inescapable grip of an emotional impasse. Here she masterfully conveys the struggle of a mind wrestling with an unyielding heart, creating an intimate space where raw emotion takes center-stage.

In a world clamouring for bombast, Corsano delivers a powerful intimacy in this raw, unfiltered dive into the tender corners of the human heart, delivered with a disarming simplicity that belies its profound emotional depth. Revealing a vulnerability that is both deeply personal and strikingly relatable, her sparse, almost childlike vocals amplify its impact.

"'Stuck' is a "little" song with a big meaning. The lyrics come from a tender place that needed simplicity and not a big vocal sound. Actually, any time I tried to sing it any differently, the vocals still came out simplistic and childlike," says Celeste Corsano.

"There aren't many lyrics but there is the play on the lyric "something in the way". The first verse meaning "something in the way that I'm feeling", and the second verse to mean "something is in my way...something in my heart". Both refer to a heart situation that I can't let go of. I'm stuck, for better or worse in a vulnerable heart space. "I should know better.." says the mind....how do you tell a heart that?? There's some more going on in these brief lyrics and I hope it speaks to you too."

Earlier, Corsano released the singles 'Nightbird' and 'Sunlight Gazing'. With hues of Kate Bush and Tori Amos, this singer-songwriter is the latest artist to be added to the growing roster of the blossoming Montclair, NJ-based indie label Magic Door Record Label.

Corsano's music blends poetic lyricism with adventurous arrangements, unexpected rhythms and a distinct emotional range -- from ethereal and moody to playful and bold. With a natural use of mixed meters and layered vocal timbres, her fearless approach to storytelling conveys a deeper truth.

For the past year, Corsano has been working with renowned producer Ray Ketchem (Guided by Voices, Elk City, Gramercy Arms, Luna, Crash Harmony) at Magic Door Recording Studio, who produced, recorded, mixed and mastered this release, as well as several recordings to follow.

With Ketchem also on drums, this single also features fantastically notable guitarist James Mastro (The Bongos, Mott the Hoople, Ian Hunter, Patti Smith, John Cale) and keyboardist-bass player David Nagler of Nova Social (who has also played with Joan Baez, Aaron Neville, Rosanne Cash, Andrew Bird, Steve Earleand Yo La Tengo).

"When I first brought the demo to Ray Ketchem, drummer on all of my recordings and producer / engineer at Magic Door Recording, he remarked about the time changes. Actually all the singles I brought to him had some time changes and Ray did a fantastic job interpreting them into the arrangement with the drums. I write on piano, so it was percussive already, but was fully realized and blossomed into the wonderful arrangements that all three songs are now," says Celeste Corsano.

"Guitarist James Mastro and synth and bass player, David Nagler added the perfect touches to the arrangement, complete with a great guitar solo, and some added percussion to finish off the song perfectly."

Born into a musical family, Celeste is inspired by her brothers - Latin roots musician Tony Corsano and avant-garde percussionist Chris Corsano (Björk, Kim Gordon, Thurston Moore). After discovering the pulse of the new wave and punk scenes, Corsano was initiated in NYC’s live music scene, in addition to writing poetry, studying art and absorbing sound at a granular level. Initially performing Celtic and Bluegrass music in the tri-state area, she has evolved as a solo artist and songwriter.

Corsano also honed her ear during countless studio recording sessions, attended with her ex-husband Brad Morrison, producer and founder of Absolute A-Go-Go Records, known for working with such notable artists as Phish, the Figgs and Spiral Jetty.

As of July 8, 'Stuck' is available from fine online music platforms, including Bandcamp, where 'Sunlight Gazing' and 'Nightbird' can also be found.

Pushing Veronica Unleashes Explosive New Single "WASTED"

July 8, 2025

Prepare to get obliterated in the best way possible—PUSHING VERONICA is back with a vengeance, dropping their blistering new single "WASTED", a riotous, no-holds-barred anthem drenched in fury, hooks, and unapologetic chaos. The track is now available on all major streaming platforms.

"WASTED," by PUSHING VERONICA

is a raw and raging punk anthem for anyone who's ever been ghosted after an interview, told they’re “not the right fit,” or handed a rejection email five minutes after applying. With razor-sharp guitars and lyrics that spit in the face of corporate nonsense, this song sets the tone for defiance, desperation, and dark humor.

BIO

SoCal alt-rock powerhouse

PUSHING VERONICA first emerged as the brainchild of then-16 year old frontman

Julien Silvås, a lifelong musician who’d already established himself on the scene via a

Warped Tour appearance with his previous band, The Local Rebellion. Fixated on a mission to herald a renaissance in the worlds of pop-punk and rock, Julien continued to grow the lineup — currently consisting of original founding member and bassist Noah Rozansky, guitarist Hunter Kubat, guitarist Daniel Flores and drummer Jason Maser.

Known for their uniquely catchy signature sound, PUSHING VERONICA build on the groundwork laid by legends from Queens of the Stone Ageand Rage Against the Machine to Foo Fighters, Nirvana, The Offspring and beyond with an uninhibitedly irreverent approach. Lauded by major outlets like Alternative Press for their “infectious and high-spirited Green Day-like stylings”, the band have continued to grow their diverse and loyal fanbase over 4 US tours and a slew of other electric live performances to date.

Following a string of achievements including collaborating with renowned directors Dean Karr and Brian Cox on music videos and working with Grammy-winning producer Dave Schiffman, PUSHING VERONICA'S momentum is now at an all-time high as they prepare for their most ambitious year yet.

S.O.R.M Unleashes Intense Heavy Rock Offering 'The Sacrifice'!

July 6, 2025

Swedish hard rock outfit S.O.R.M has officially unleashed their brand new track, 'The Sacrifice', which offers another powerful statement from the Lidköping-based four-piece. The stand-alone single is out now via Noble Demon and available for streaming.

The band offers insight into the single’s core message: "The new single is a song that speaks to everyone. It’s about all the sacrifices we do just so we can keep on living. At the end we all turn to the lord and ask for a hero that can help lead the way. My problems in life are different from yours but we all sometimes need to do sacrifices to keep on moving forward. The hardest work is to sacrifice something without regrets. But in the end we always wonder if he hears you calling out."

Formed in 2017, S.O.R.M quickly made a name for themselves with the release of their outstanding "Hellraiser" EP (2020), which introduced the band to the world and captivated audiences with their infectious hooks right from the start. The band's 2023 debut album, "Under My Skin" (Noble Demon), further solidified their position in the hard rock scene, featuring guest appearances by legendary guitarists Doug Blair of W.A.S.P. and Nick Petrino of Dee Snider.

Chase Rice Soundtracks Summer with "Two Tone Trippin'" Feat. Wyatt McCubbin Out Now

July 2, 2025

Just in time for Independence Day cookouts and back-road getaways, Chase Rice delivers “Two Tone Trippin’”– a jangly, guitar-picking joyride that captures the heart of summer and the spirit of a classic American truck. Featuring fellow singer-songwriter Wyatt McCubbin, the nostalgic new single is available everywhere today as the first preview of new music to come later this year. Listen Below.

A feel-good celebration of freedom, young love and the timeless charm of a two-tone pickup, “Two Tone Trippin’” takes a well-worn symbol of Country storytelling and revs it up with fresh detail and classic Country flair. Rice and McCubbin – who cowrote the song with producer Oscar Charles – trade verses like old friends swapping stories on the tailgate, with a toe-tapping arrangement and vivid, boots-on-the-dash imagery:

“Wyatt, Oscar and I were driving around Rollinsville, Colorado, and we kept noticing two-tone trucks everywhere. Oscar finally said, ‘Man, this must be where two-tones go to die.’ Then out of nowhere, he goes, ‘We should write a song called ‘Two Tone Trippin’,’” recalls Rice. “I had just bought a ‘72 two-tone Chevy, so I was all about it. I think we wrote the whole thing in about 45 minutes – no rules, not even a chorus. We just straight up had fun on this one. And everything you hear in the recording – the playing and the singing – was all one take.”

McCubbin – known for penning songs for artists including Lainey Wilson, Luke Combs, Zach Top, Cody Johnson and more in addition to his own solo career – adds a soulful layer to the track introducing the next chapter in Rice’s career, which promises to further expand his evolution as an artist. More new music is expected later this year, as Rice continues to lean into his roots and the unfiltered storytelling that earned 2024’s independent release Go Down Singin’ widespread critical praise.

American Songwriter celebrated the “introspective authenticity and Rice‘s dedication to change his career narrative from backward ball cap party guy to serious songwriter,” noting that much of the new music “walks the line between traditional Country and Bluegrass,” while Billboard notes it “leans toward rootsier, raw-rock driven sounds, trading party anthems for introspective lyrical themes…. as his voice conveys a crackling warmth of self-reflection and an easy-going comfortableness.”

“Rice’s knack for a good melody is still well intact,” adds Rolling Stone, “but this time it’s used to tell a good story, not fit into a radio algorithm… [Rice] has stopped worrying about where the songs will land, and realized that the best art exists not by trying to get a bloated Number One, nor by trying to adhere to some purist outlaw notion, either. It’s the organic sweet spot in the middle.”

LOVE IS NOISE Releases Two Brand-New Tracks “Hole In Me” And “All Eyes Shut” — Out Now via Century Media

July 2, 2025

Following widespread acclaim for their February 2025 debut album 'To Live in a Different Way' released via Century Media Records, UK powerhouse LOVE IS NOISE returns with new music much sooner than fans might have expected. The band is dropping two brand-new tracks, “Hole In Me” and “All Eyes Shut,” along with an electrifying new music video for the lead single “Hole In Me,” available below.

Alongside the dual single release, LOVE IS NOISE is also unveiling what might be their strongest music video to date and officially introducing a new chapter in the band’s evolution. The updated lineup now includes Sam Clark (Bass), Alex Ioannou (Guitar), and Joe Pink(Drums), joining founding vocalist Cameron Humphrey to form the newly solidified quintet.

Cam shares about the new line-up:

“It’s an absolute pleasure to welcome Sam, Joe and Alex into the fold. They’ve been touring with LOVE IS NOISE over the past year and the chemistry we had between us all was unmatched. This made the decision to offer them full time roles very easy. We’re brothers and I can’t wait to tour the world over and over with them.”

He adds about the new singles:

“'Hole In Me' begins a new chapter in the life of LOVE IS NOISE. 1 becomes 4. This song is heartbreak at its finest, accompanied by the heaviest instrumentation from ourselves to date. This is the future! On the other hand, 'All Eyes Shut,' alongside a guitar solo from our friend Erik, leans more into our alternative rock influences. This song sounds like if 'Everlong' era Foo Fighters was created today. To us, this is a perfect combo and a great addition alongside 'Hole In Me.'”

Watch the Music Video for "Hole In Me" Below

Watch the Visualizer for "All Eyes Shut" HERE

LOVE IS NOISE began its journey in 2021 as a collaboration between Humphrey and former guitarist Tom Mellon (who recently left the band to explore other musical endeavours) balancing the ethereal and intense. While sonic signposts include modern-day shoegaze as well as the likes of Glassjaw and Deftones, the band’s 2022 EP, 'Euphoria, Where Were You?' (released on FEVER 333 frontman Jason Aalon Butler’s 333 WRECKORDS CREW) pointed towards a soul-crushing sonic heartache all their own.

A string of singles led to the band inking with Century Media and beginning work on their debut album. LOVE IS NOISE released the first taste of new music with the acclaimed singles“Soft Glow,” “Jawbreaker” “To live in a different way, “take.one.minute,” and “It Hurts To Know You're There,” which appeared on numerous playlists across the streaming platforms and were featured on BBC Radio One, Kerrang! Radio and Total Rock. The band’s Century Media debut, ‘To live in a different way,’ straddles the roughshod riffing and volume of their DIY origins while embracing shoegaze-facing melodiousness, hints of Brit-pop, and a beating (and bleeding) heart erupting from Cam Humphrey’s plaintive vocals. Co-produced by the band with engineer Kel Pinchin and mixed by John Markson (Drug Church, Drain, The Story So Far), ‘To live in a different way’ is a startling debut album.

June 29, 2025

Sol Invicto have released "Initium ft. Zach Hill" - a 21-minute single that marks the starting point of a project that was never built to follow rules. Originally recorded in 2011 and shared only with the band’s private fan club community, this is the first time the track will be available publicly, in full, without edits or post-production polish. Listen HERE and watch the visualizer below.

The track was produced, composed, and mixed by Richie Londres, who built Sol Invicto to operate outside the machinery of conventional release cycles or studio expectations. His approach was, and still is. deliberately raw. Built from dense industrial textures, tribal percussion, and rhythmic structures borrowed from electronic music, "Initium" exists to communicate something that couldn’t be said another way.

Backing Londres are core members Stephen Carpenter (Deftones) on guitar and Eric Bobo (Cypress Hill) on percussion, with co-production and editing by AJ Cookson. The track was mastered by legendary UK drum & bass producer, Technical Itch.

Initium also features a rare, extended guest performance from Zach Hill, captured in a single early session. Known for his work with Hella, Death Grips, and Team Sleep, Hill brought a level of speed and volatility that reshaped the track’s energy from the ground up. His performance doesn’t settle. It pulls the piece forward without warning, fracturing the rhythm and rebuilding it in real time. Across 21 minutes, there’s no repetition—just movement.

The release is dedicated to Jack, a young boy whose story stayed with Londres long after the track was finished. Jack lived with high-sensory autism and physical disabilities. Music, sound, and even light were too much for him to process. His mother wrote to Londres years ago to share what happened when "Initium" was accidentally played during one of Jack’s dental appointments. He didn’t shut down. He didn’t cry. He tapped along and he smiled. It was the first time in his life he had done so. Jack connected deeply with Londres’ work and only his work. Nothing else broke through. Not even Deftones. Jack has since passed away. He was buried with a copy of Sol Invicto’s music.

“Jack’s mother’s testimony meant more to me than any Grammy or award ever could. In a cold and heartless industry that exploits and controls creativity, her message gave me a reason to carry on. As a non-conformist who has always rejected mainstream pressures, I realized I wasn’t making music for myself but for a higher calling—to create art that connects, heals, and transforms lives. This release of Initium is dedicated to Jack’s memory and his family, honoring the miraculous connection we shared and the purpose they inspired in my work.”

"Initium" is for the outliers. The purists. The ones who hear music in shapes and shadows. It’s for Jack.

Knosis Unleash"Tanebi" Ahead of Debut Album "Genknosis" Out 8/1

June 29, 2025

Japanese metal juggernaut KNOSIS, the visionary project led by acclaimed multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Ryo Kinoshita, return with a blistering new single "TANEBI."

It's the latest offering from their forthcoming debut full-length album, GENKNOSIS, arriving August 1 via SharpTone Records.

Following the release of the pulverizing singles "FUHAI" (featuring Yukina of Hanabie), "SHINMON," and the emotionally raw "DOKUNUMA," "TANEBI" (translated as "Seed Fire") continues to build the firestorm around GENKNOSIS. Combining razor-sharp riffs, thunderous rhythms, and Kinoshita's signature blend of guttural intensity and haunting melody, the track captures KNOSIS at their most urgent and dynamic.

With each new release, KNOSIS are solidifying their place as one of the most compelling and forward-thinking voices in modern heavy music. GENKNOSIS promises a genre-defying exploration of spiritual tension, emotional collapse, and the will to rise.

"We tend to run ourselves ragged in life," says the band about the single. "Eventually it catches up with us.This song was written with these ideas in mind. The collapse of everything around us when life becomes too much. It’s inevitable, but how we deal with it defines us."

The band is currently direct support on the Fight The Dinosaur Tour, featuring Hunt the Dinosaur, Fight From Within, and Resistor. The tour kicked off June 13th and runs through July 13th, delivering a full month of crushing performances.

"We are extremely excited to be supporting Hunt The Dinosaur with our homies in Resistor. We get to revisit some of the best places we’ve played, and have new places to see. We have some incredible local support for the entire tour, and look forward to seeing all of our fans and friends!" says the band.

Founded in early 2021, Fight From Within has built a name through their crushing blend of metalcore, hardcore, and beatdown, drawing on influences from genre giants like Bury Your Dead, Polaris, Evergreen Terrace, Emmure, Invent/Animate, Every Time I Die, and Attila. They use these different influences to create their own unique aggressive sound.

In 2022, the band entered the studio with Pablo Viveros of Chelsea Grin, working on what would become their debut full-length album, set to drop later this year through TLG|ZOID, distributed through Virgin Music Group. Their momentum continues to grow—having kicked off 2025 with a standout performance at Sonic Temple, marking their fourth major festival appearance in just three years.

Catch them live this summer—Fight From Within is ready to make 2025 their year. Check out Fight From Within HERE!

Morgan Wallen Releases New Amazon Music Original Cover, "Graveyard Whistling [Amazon Music Original]"

June 28, 2025

Amazon Music announced and released the digital track by 19-time Billboard Music Award winner Morgan Wallen, “Graveyard Whistling [Amazon Music Original],” a reimagined version of the 2014 song by English rock band, Nothing But Thieves.

Wallen showcases his vocal versatility and emotional depth, while capturing the track through a country lens. The song trades the original’s alt-rock sound for a more introspective, acoustic-driven atmosphere. While staying true to the heartfelt lyrics, Wallen infuses them with the raw sincerity and soul of modern country storytelling.

Listen to “Graveyard Whistling [Amazon Music Original]” exclusively on Amazon Music here.

Amazon Music will also release the track as an exclusive, limited edition 7” later this year. Available on September 19 the release features new, original artwork and features “Dark Til Daylight” as the b-side to the track. Fans in the U.S. can pre-order the exclusive 7” now only in the Amazon Music app here.

Wallen’s Amazon Music Original arrives on the heels of the release of his most recent album, I’m The Problem, with overwhelming fan response leading to a fifth week at No. 1 on Billboard's Top 200. With the release, Wallen broke the record for most streamed country record in its first day on Amazon Music.

About Morgan Wallen:
Morgan Wallen sets the pace in, and beyond, country music – with Billboard calling him “one of the biggest stars in the music world right now” and The New Yorker adding “[he’s] popular on a scale that seems to circumvent genre entirely.” With 18 No. 1 singles at Country radio, 19 Billboard Music Awards to-date, more than 190 weeks spent atop Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart (the most in country music history), the highest selling country tour under his belt and more, Wallen has propelled country music to a global level in less than five years.

Wallen’s fourth studio album, I’m The Problem, available now via Big Loud / Mercury, debuted at No. 1 globally across seven countries; while his preceding albums – Dangerous: The Double Album and One Thing At A Time – have remained in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 chart for more than 100 weeks each, making him the first artist ever to achieve that feat. I’m The Problem – which Hits Daily Double observes is “a 37-song cycle of self-reckoning” – has already yielded three No. 1’s at Country radio, including the title track, which has remained at No. 1 for eight weeks. Wallen also broke his own record for the most simultaneous entries in Billboard Hot 100 History, with 37 songs charting on release week.

Wallen’s 20-stadium-show 2025 I’m the Problem Tour kicked off on June 20 in Houston, Texas. Coupled with his personally-curated, multi-genre Sand In My Boots Music Festival in Gulf Shores, Alabama and album release show at The Roundhouse in London in May, these 22 shows are the only place to see the superstar this year.

Wallen continues to donate a portion of every ticket sold to his Morgan Wallen Foundation — which supports youth music and athletic programs and gives communities access to essentials in times of crisis. More at MorganWallen.com.

Annie Bosko Unleashes Rousing Anthem "Country Girls! (Who Runs the World)"

June 28, 2025

Rising singer/songwriter and powerhouse performer Annie Bosko releases her rousing anthem “Country Girls! (Who Runs the World),” available now via Stone Country Records. Celebrating the grit and grace of women who do it all, the new track blends honky-tonk swagger with girl-power pride. Listen below.

“It’s no secret that being a woman in country music means working twice as hard with half the time,” shares Bosko. “There’s constant pressure – around age, appearance and how you present yourself. Guys can show up in a ball cap and jeans, but it doesn’t work that way for us. Female artists have always made up a smaller slice of the country music marketplace. But when they break through, they break through big.

“Growing up, Shania Twain lit my world on fire. She made me feel powerful – like I could be bold, feminine, sexy, smart, fiery and fun all at once,” she adds. “That’s what I hope this song does: sparks that fire and makes women feel fearless and ready to take on the world.”

“Country Girls! (Who Runs the World)” arrives with an original line dance, brought to life earlier this month in a surprise flash mob at CMA Fest, where Bosko joined forces with a group of line dancers from Nashville Dance Fest at the Ariat storefront in downtown Nashville. Watch the flash mob HERE and watch a tutorial for the original line dance HERE.

Written by Bosko alongside David “Messy” Mescon and Bridgette Tatum, who also co-produced the track, the new release opens with blazing harmonica followed by a catchy call-and-response chorus, as the song nods to the everyday hustle of country women:

Today’s release follows “God Winks,” a tribute to faith and divine timing during moments of uncertainty. The California native brought the song to RFD-TV’s “On the Record” and Fox 11’s “Good Day LA” in Los Angeles, as she continues to build momentum towards her debut LP later this year.

Bosko is set to perform at Country Summer Music Festival in Santa Rosa, California this Sunday, June 29 and the North Dakota State Fair on July 20 before heading to Headwaters Country Jam on July 25.

K.K. DOWNING PAYS TRIBUTE TO ROCKA ROLLA 50TH ANNIVERSARY WITH NEW COVER OF “NEVER SATISFIED”

June 27, 2025

K.K. Downing, a founding member of Judas Priest and leader of KK’s Priest, has released an updated version of “Never Satisfied” as a tribute to the recent 50th Anniversary of Judas Priest’s debut album, Rocka Rolla.

Originally appearing on the 1974 album Rocka Rolla, and as the B-side single to its title track, “Never Satisfied” was co-written by Downing and Al Atkins—the band’s original lead singer prior to Rob Halford.

Reflecting on the updated version, K.K. shared:

“It’s a real treat and great fun to revisit and record this version of ‘Never Satisfied,’ a song I co-wrote over 50 years ago! I really didn’t overthink it—I just plugged in my guitar drifting back to a time when Metal was an embryo of an idea. I knew the song already sounded great with Rob Halford, but I was especially keen on hearing the mighty Ripper Owens on the vocals.”

K.K. added, “The response to the 50th anniversary of Rocka Rolla has been so well received, I wanted to do a little something to add to the celebration — and I can see “Never Satisfied” becoming a fan favorite at a future KK’s Priest show!”

The new version of “Never Satisfied” is now available for streaming and downloading via Exciter Records, in partnership with K.K.’s label Hellfire Thunderbolt Records.

Exciter Records, owned by publisher Reach Music, recently acquired the masters and publishing rights to both Rocka Rolla and Sad Wings of Destiny by Judas Priest. A 50th anniversary release of Sad Wings of Destiny in 2026 is currently in production.
