Swiss Post-Metallers Abraham Unveil New Single "Suurwäut"

Swiss post-metallers Abraham unveil "Suurwäut," a hypnotic single that offers another glimpse into their new album's kaleidoscopic chaos.

idsungwüssä, to be released on September 26 via Pelagic Records, is the third and final chapter of a series of ambitious concept albums.

Watch "Suurwäut" video below

Pre-order idsungwüssä here.

Still staged in the gritty atmosphere and philosophical weight of post-metal, sludge, and ambient noise, idsungwüssä sees Abraham march even further into dissonant and defiant territory.

"The three albums are clearly linked together thematically," the band comments. "Although, rather than an additional chapter, idsungwüssä is more like a parallel narrative to Débris de mondes perdus. The latter was a jump in time after Look, Here Comes the Dark!, whereas idsungwüssä is a jump in space, a journey away from Earth. It should be the final piece of this little jolly ride."
 
This album isn't just heavy — it is absolutely drenched in delicious filth, and yet by embracing even more the melodic interludes and melancholic passages, they create a devastating contrast to the wall of power coming from stacked guitars, catastrophic drums, and raging, sharp vocals delivered in Swiss-German dialect.
 
"The album was recorded between November 2024 and February 2025, all while handling our day jobs and in a period that was, on a personal level, not the easiest for some of us. It is only in the last two weeks of the recording process, right before sending it out to mixing, that it sort of came together and started to feel like a coherent album, an album that we could be happy and proud about. For an album with change/transformation as an underlying theme, this is sort of performative!"
 
This urgency and duress bleeds into every song, an hour-long journey that moves from the grim to sublime, from melancholy to raw destruction — evoking ruined civilizations and the last wails of fractured psyches. Yet there is something less bleakly human, more ethereal at moments, as if glimpsing beyond the constraints of the body and its wheel of flesh and death.

Strewn throughout the record are appearances of Farfisa Louvre organ — prominently featuring on an Abraham album for the first time. The band were also joined by Kevin Galland (Coilguns), who added additional Moog and piano parts. 

The band continues, "Our approach to recording guitars was different than what we did before. Instead of having one guitar on the left playing a part and one on the right playing another part, we decided that left and right guitars were to play the same part, and the center guitar was to play another part. We just stacked more guitars whenever we needed. And oh did we use a lot of reverb, too!"
 
The structures and movements of the songs found within idsungwüssä are unique and fresh. A balancing of themes and emotions that is both intoxicating and unsettling, it is an immersive journey that rewards deep listening and challenges the boundaries of genre. From the patient grandeur of coming extinction, to the chaos and fevered urgency of the aftermath, in idsungwüssä Abraham move forward from prophetic lamentation to an elegiac visceral response. The emotional closure of this expression is felt, something final that will leave you speechless and with only one real option: Listen to it again.

INNERWISH Unleash Spy-Thriller Anthem with New Single ‘The Enemy Inside’

INNERWISH return with "The Enemy Inside," a spine-tingling ride through the shadowy world of espionage, laced with thunderous riffs and an irresistible groove that will burrow deep into your brain. With lyrics inspired by the moral complexities of spy life - most notably portrayed in Steven Spielberg’s “Munich” - the new single fuses classic heavy metal power with cinematic storytelling and an unmistakable nod to metal giants ACCEPT.

"Well, we love ACCEPT,” states the band. “And songs like this one show our love for their characteristic straightforward riffing. Almost in every album of ours, we have a song of that type. Never the same, yet the influence and inspiration is there. What can we do? We love that groovy metal! The lyrics are actually inspired by the movie “Munich” and the life of spies, plus the continuing moral dilemmas occurring through their decisions and acts.”

Get Lost In Kami Kehoe's "Kandy" EP + New Single & Video Out Now!

Ascending alt-rock talent, Kami Kehoe, has today unveiled her brand new EP, "Kandy" via Atlantic Records, Coup D'Etat Recordings and 10K Projects. The poignant five song collection arrives alongside the brand new single, "COME DOWN" and a music video for viral single "DOPAMINE". Fans can listen to "Kandy" now HERE and check out the premiere for brand new video for "DOPAMINE" / "COME DOWN" Below.

What began as a handful of cryptic teasers quickly erupted into a fan-fueled phenomenon, as early previews of "Kandy" exploded across social media, racking up more than 10 million views before the first track, "DOPAMINE" even dropped. A striking fusion of gritty rock, vulnerable storytelling, and fearless experimentation, "Kandy" crystallizes the next evolution of Kami Kehoe, an artist that has already dominated with over 25 million streams and 24 million TikTok views worldwide.

While "Kandy" is meant to encapsulate the euphoric rush of an all-consuming, intoxicating love, her latest single, "COME DOWN" strips away the high to reveal a raw, introspective journey through a heartbreak's aftermath. Offering a candid look at the process of letting go, "COME DOWN" delves into the lingering ache, self-reflection, and questions that surface when the rush of love fades.

As she ushers in "COME DOWN" and also celebrates the success of smash hit "DOPAMINE" and the release of her brand new EP, "Kandy", Kami Kehoe reflects:

"Releasing this EP feels unreal. I poured so much of myself into these songs, they helped me heal through one of my toughest heartbreaks and my biggest hope is that they connect with others who need them too.



There's something truly special about performing live, sharing these lyrics, and feeling that energy together. I can't wait to experience that with everyone this weekend at Warped Tour and this fall while on tour with Daughtry, Seether, and POD."



Amplifying her momentum, Kami Kehoe will be joining renowned rock icons Daughtry, Seether, and POD as the opening act on their highly-anticipated fall US tour. Moving seamlessly between the festival buzz of Warped Tour and arena stages, Kami Kehoe's effortless live presence speaks to her undeniable range and broad appeal. As she nears her largest tour to date, this run marks a significant milestone for the up-and-coming artist as she shares the stage with three of rock's most established acts on a landmark run of shows.

Carving out her own space in the alt-rock world, Kami Kehoe has impressively amassed over 25 million streams and more than 24 million TikTok views by blending a sultry, velvety vocal with a hard-charged rock energy. Since breaking out with the viral hit “SLEEP WHEN I’M DEAD”, she has continued to evolve her sound—infusing shoegaze, metal, and hip-hop influences into her music while remaining unapologetically authentic.

Be sure to stay tuned for more Kami Kehoe news coming very soon.

ABOUT KAMI KEHOE

KAMI KEHOE has never been one to sit around and wait for permission. Although she’s only 21, the Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter and drummer has been blazing her own musical path for the past 15 years, spinning a chameleonic, hard-charged rock sound into 25 million streams and more than 24 million TikTok views. 

This unapologetic authenticity propelled her breakout hit “SLEEP WHEN I’M DEAD,” from her 2024 album REVIVED (Coup D'état/10K Projects), to audiences around the world in stratospheric fashion. Almost overnight, the garage-punk suckerpunch ripped through social media at lightning speed, netting Kami 100,000 new TikTok followers a day and further cementing her as a rising name in the underground. 

Now, that story continues with “SAFEHOUSE,” her brand-new single featuring Colorblind and Ekoh. Written in the aftermath of the Los Angeles fires, the track combines droning shoegaze, Deftones-style riffs and propulsive electronic undertones into a hypnotic blend of metal, alternative and hip-hop. It’s another bold step forward for Kami as she continues to kick down the guardrails of her sound – as well as another entry in her omnipresent push to Kure The World, a mantra proudly emblazoned on her bass drum and a mission statement that’s powered her songwriting since day one. “If I can change one person’s life through my music, then I’ve reached my goal,” she says proudly. “I make music for me; I release music for others.”

Koe Wetzel Ushers in the Next Era with "Surrounded," Out Now

 Rolling Stone’s “unpredictable wild man” praised by Billboard “for music that’s unvarnished and unfiltered” officially kicks off a new chapter as Koe Wetzel unveils highly-anticipated new single “Surrounded” – the first taste of new music since his chart-topping 9 Lives. Listen HERE.
 
Co-written by Wetzel with Josh Serrato, Ashley Gorley and producer Gabe, “Surrounded” captures the aching aftermath of heartbreak and delves into the feeling of being trapped by a memory you can’t outrun:

Initially teased during a radio event in February, the hard-driving track blending raw emotion with Wetzel’s signature country-rock edge has since become a fixture in his live set, from a pair of home state stadium dates in Texas with Morgan Wallen to a high-energy run of summer festival dates amid Jim Bob World Tour legs with HARDY.
 
““The way fans have connected with ‘Surrounded’ at shows made it clear this needed to be the first new song we put out,” notes Wetzel. “It’s been fun seeing the fans hyped online this week and we’re excited for everyone to finally hear the full version.”
 
The release of “Surrounded” follows a landmark year that saw Wetzel hit five consecutive weeks at No. 1 with 9 Lives standout “High Road” featuring Jessie Murph, land on year-end “Best Of” lists from the likes of Rolling Stone, Billboard, LA Times, Tennessean, Holler and more, grace the covers or POLLSTAR and Billboardplus receive three new RIAA certifications at the sold-out Red Rocks finale of the Damn Near Normal World Tour, which saw the renegade rockstar perform for well over 200,000 fans globally with over 96% of all headline tickets sold – and even spawned its own live album.
 
With new music out now, a nonstop touring schedule this summer and his Madison Square Garden debut this fall, Wetzel shows no signs of slowing down.

About Koe Wetzel
Koe Wetzel never met a genre wall he couldn’t tear down. The Texas singer-songwriter has earned a rabid audience for his songs that mix country, rock, hip-hop, and even Nineties grunge. With his defining fifth studio album, 9 Lives, released in 2024 via Columbia Records, Wetzel earned recognition on several major year-end best-of lists, including Rolling Stone, Billboard, the Tennessean and more, with the Los Angeles Times naming lead single “High Road” (feat. Jessie Murph) as the No. 8 best song of 2024 across all genres. The single not only marked Wetzel’s debut at Country radio, it also held the No. 1 spot for five weeks and became his fastest song to reach the RIAA Platinum milestone to date. Previously, his 2016 album Noise Complaint endeared him to fans with its no-holds-barred lyrics about drunken nights, broken hearts and stints in jail, and included the Gold-certified hits “Love” (feat. Parker McCollum), “Something to Talk About” plus the infamous “February 28, 2016.” Wetzel’s 2020 major label debut, Sellout, only furthered his legend with the Platinum-certified “Drunk Driving” and “Good Die Young” plus the Gold-certified “Kuntry & Wistern.” The 2022 follow-up, Hell Paso, hit No. 3 on Billboard’s Country Albums and spawned hits on both the country and rock charts, including the Gold-certified “Creeps” and “Cabo.” To date, Wetzel has amassed 3.7 billion total streams and has created a genuine experience with his live concerts, which he describes as “total chaos.” Wetzel performed for well over 200,000 fans across the U.S. in Europe in 2024, with over 96% of all headline tickets sold, in addition to playing prominent festival sets and opening for Morgan Wallen on the superstar’s One Night at a Time Stadium Tour, while 2025 sees him again embark on a year of heavy touring both as a headliner and alongside Wallen and HARDY.

Adam Mac Releases Heartfelt New Track "Last Rodeo" + Shares Wedding News

Rising queer country artist Adam Mac follows the recent release of his viral sensation, “Southern Spectacle,” with his most intimate and heartfelt release yet –  brand-new song “Last Rodeo.” The track along with its music video, which shares footage from Mac’s recent marriage to long-time partner Lee Pfund, are available today. “Last Rodeo” is the latest glimpse into his upcoming new album to be released later this year. Listen to the track HERE and watch the video Below.

Written by Mac with Sonia Leigh and Jason Mater as wedding vows for Pfund, “Last Rodeo” is a tender, rootsy love song that captures the joy and peace of lasting partnership. The couple wed last month sharing the news exclusively with Us Weekly today about their intimate sunrise ceremony atop Baby Bell Rock in Sedona, Arizona – a location that holds deep meaning for them.

“We visited Sedona four years ago on an anniversary trip and completely fell in love with the beauty and energy of the place,” Mac told Us Weekly. “When it came time to plan our wedding, it just made sense. We didn’t want anything big – just something deeply personal, just for us.”

The couple hiked to the summit at 4:45 a.m. and exchanged vows as the sun crested the red rock horizon. They each wrote their own vows – and Mac’s were “Last Rodeo.” An epic romantic anthem, the track marries his soaring vocal power to a pronoun-correct soulmates standout. 

“I wrote ‘Last Rodeo’ as a way to say everything I knew I’d feel standing across from Lee on our wedding day – no walls, no distractions, just the truth,” Mac shared with Us. “It’s a love song, yes, but it’s also a thank-you – for choosing me, for staying through the storms, and for being my peace.”

After eight years together, Mac and Pfund say they’ve long felt married in spirit, but the current cultural and political climate made it all the more meaningful to make it official.

“With everything going on in the world, we felt like it was the perfect time to stand strong in our love and celebrate it out loud,” Mac told the magazine. “We already felt like life partners – but now it is official.”

The “Last Rodeo” music video, filmed by Ford Fairchild in the same Sedona landscape where Mac and Pfund exchanged vows, is deeply personal and marks the next chapter in Mac’s ever-evolving artistry offering a taste of his forthcoming third studio album. Watch the new video HERE. Additional wedding photos HERE

Unafraid to sparkle in the spotlight – or speak his truth, Mac continues to capture hearts with his unapologetic Southern flair, raw truth and glitter-soaked twang. Mac also recently released a companion video for his recent release “Southern Spectacle.” Written by Mac with HALLIE, Gigi Rich and Sonia Leigh, the song is a celebration of self-expression in the face of Southern tradition. The video finds the Southern spectacle returning to his hometown of Russellville, KY with his glitter and rhinestone shine on full display. Watch the video HERE and listen HERE

Reflecting on social media this week Mac shared, “I can’t help but to be so inspired and proud of my little hometown Russellville, Ky. it was truly a soul fulfilling day being back home in all my glamour and glory and being embraced by the town I felt like I was hiding in my whole life.” 

Mac has been pushing the boundaries of country music from the beginning. Rooted in the gospel and '90s country sounds of his youth, he has carved a space all his own with a fresh fusion of southern soul, disco flair, and fearless storytelling. “Southern Spectacle” builds on that sound – a high-octane declaration of authenticity that celebrates queer joy and personal freedom in the face of tradition.

These two new tracks follow the success of Mac’s previous release “Dust Off Your Boots,” which sparked a nationwide line dancing trend and held the No. 1 spot on CMT’s 12 Pack Countdown for six consecutive weeks. Before that, his breakout anthem “Disco Cowboy” reigned at No. 1 for four weeks and premiered exclusively on CMT.

As a visible queer voice in country music today, Mac’s journey has not been without challenges. When he was scheduled to headline the Logan County Tobacco and Heritage Festival in his conservative hometown, backlash from local pastors sparked national headlines. His strength in the face of hate drew support from fans, hometown friends and celebrities alike – including Maren Morris, Kelsea Ballerini and Brandy Clark – and led to a guest appearance on Morris’ Lunatics Tour in Chicago.

With his magnetic presence and rich storytelling, Mac continues to carve out space for queer voices in the country format showing that there’s room for every kind of story. For the latest news and updates follow along on Instagram, TikTok and Facebook @adammacmusic and online at adammacmusic.com.

About Adam Mac:
Adam Mac is like no one else you know. A true Southern Spectacle and one of queer country’s leading voices, the inspiring singer-songwriter is brave enough to truly be himself – and help others do the same. Raised in Russellville, Kentucky, Mac grew up a farm-and-church kid loving The Spice Girls and Shania Twain, who’s non-stop singing soon moved from the bedroom to Sunday services and talent shows. By 22 he had moved to Nashville to write songs he thought the mainstream would accept, but by his own admission, nearly 10 years of struggle led nowhere – until he realized he was doing “three chords and the truth” all wrong. Fusing vocal soul with a danceable country-funk mix (and the full fabulousness of his personality), 2023’s breakout hit “Disco Cowboy” set Mac free. The rapturous music video held the #1 spot on CMT’s 12-Pack Countdown for four weeks, leading to a full album of the same name and a pandora’s box of conversations. After protestors forced Mac to cancel a hometown performance, waves of supporters joined his cause, including Kelsey Ballerini and Maren Morris, who invited Mac to open her Lunatic Tour in Chicago. The national media also took notice, with Mac’s music hailed by BillboardEntertainment Weekly, Out, GLAAD, and PEOPLE, calling Mac “country music’s very own Elton John.” Louder and prouder than ever, and with a true community in his corner, Mac finally embraces his own story, contrasts and quirks included. His work might invite the scorn of a few but also gives his fellow Southern Spectacles

COLIN STOUGH BRINGS “WHITE TRASH” TO LIFE

19 Recordings / BMG Nashville’s Mississippi rebel Colin Stoughreleases the official music video for his latest single “White Trash” – watch Below.

Directed by Randy Shaffer and shot in Nashville, TN, the official music video brings to life significant moments from Stough’s past. From a pawn shop guitar trade – the exact one he purchased with childhood possessions at age 8 is featured in the video – to small town scenes checking on a pet chicken in a trailer park, buying a souped-up new truck, catfishing lessons, setting off fireworks inside city limits, and more, the living snapshot delivers on all things “White Trash.”

Co-written by Stough, Jamie Collazo, and Kenny Whitmire, and produced by James LeBlanc and Phillip White, “White Trash” is a battle cry for the outcast — fueled by conviction and delivered with a devilish grin. Driven by raw vocals and a defiant country-rock swagger, the unapologetic declaration finds Stough doing what he does best: stripping away pretenses and leaning full-tilt into every scar, setback, and stereotype with pride.

Stough will continue working on new music as he hits the road for select performances throughout the summer and early fall. Full list of 2025 tour dates below.
 

COLIN STOUGH 2025 TOUR DATES

7/30: Sturgis, SD (Kickstands Bar & Grill)

8/9: Campbell, MO (Campbell Peach Fair)

9/20: Morehead, KY (Poppy Mountain Bluegrass Festival)

10/11: Salt Lake City, UT (Utah State Fair Park)

About Colin Stough
Born on the Mississippi-Alabama border, Colin Stough was raised on Southern rock and second chances. A self-taught guitarist and gravel-voiced storyteller influenced by The Allman Brothers, Conway Twitty, and Koe Wetzel, he first picked up a guitar at age 8, later trading in his prized possessions for a pawn shop acoustic — one he still plays today. After high school, he worked full-time as an HVAC tech until his mom pushed him to audition for American Idol Season 21. That leap launched a life-changing ride: a standout third-place finish, a deal with 19 Recordings / BMG Nashville, and a breakout debut with songs like “Bad Day” and “I Still Talk to Jesus.”

With a skinned-raw vocal and lyrics carved from lived experience, Stough has built a loyal following of nearly 750k across social platforms. His EPs Promiseland and Lookin’ For Home offer a no-frills portrait of a 20-year-old navigating scars, faith, and fire with Southern grit. He’s opened for acts like Chase Matthew, Drake White, and Kidd G, and is continuing to build his live show through 2025. A student of Skynyrd and the outlaw spirit, Stough isn’t chasing trends with his latest release "White Trash" — he’s telling the underdog’s truth, one song at a time.

THE SORROW OF BEING IMMACULATE Announce 'Suicide Forest' and Release Title Track

Emerging once again from the shadows of rural Britain, anonymous solo project THE SORROW OF BEING IMMACULATE has announced the release of their new full-length album Suicide Forest, arriving September 26, 2025 via Drone Alone. Alongside the announcement, the title track "Suicide Forest" is now available for streaming. 

Written and recorded in solitude in a remote Welsh barn during winter 2024, Suicide Forest is an instrumental descent into psychological ruin, framed by loops of distorted guitar, subterranean bass, and meditative drones. The album’s eleven tracks move between suffocating sludge and eerie ambience, rooted in themes of trauma, detachment, and the long half-life of sorrow. There are no vocals. No catharsis. Just the sound of emotional erosion played at full volume.

The title track, "Suicide Forest," takes its name from Japan’s Aokigahara Forest, a place both feared and mythologized. Here, the song becomes an abstract tribute to those spaces where despair and silence meet. What begins as a crushing riff slowly unravels into layered interference, reverse guitars, and bleak repetition. It’s not a journey out, it’s a slow march inward.

The album was engineered and co-mixed by Mike Bannard at Safehouse Studios, Oxford, with mastering, artwork, and production handled by THE SORROW OF BEING IMMACULATE themselves. The result is a record that feels more exorcism than expression—music created not for others, but in spite of everything.

Suicide Forest follows 2024’s Church Music for Satanists EP, which gained underground attention for its immersive gloom and hypnotic minimalism. The new album expands on that aesthetic while deepening its emotional range and sonic intensity.

About THE SORROW OF BEING IMMACULATE:

THE SORROW OF BEING IMMACULATE is an anonymous solo project from Oxford, England, crafting bleak, instrumental sludge and drone since 2023. With no vocals, no public identity, and no live appearances, the music exists in complete isolation: just distortion, repetition, and emotional exhaustion.

Emerging from the Welsh countryside with the debut EP Church Music for Satanists in early 2024, THE SORROW OF BEING IMMACULATE quickly established a signature sound: hypnotic, heavy, and relentlessly minimal. The follow-up full-length, Suicide Forest, released by drone alone in 2025, pushed further into themes of anxiety, decay, and existential fatigue, blending guitar-driven doom with eerie drones and field-recorded interference.

Influenced by artists such as ELECTRIC WIZARD, SUNN O))), EARTH, and CARTER/TUTTI/VOID, the project explores psychological weight through slow repetition and spiritual dissonance. There are no lyrics because nothing more needs to be said. The riffs are the message.

For those drawn to the darker corners of sound, where catharsis is earned through endurance, THE SORROW OF BEING IMMACULATE offers a solitary descent.

Stoned Jesus Shine Mightily on "Shadowland"

Whether climbing to doomy peaks or bouldering through a radio-friendly banger, over the course of the past decade and a half, Stoned Jesus have left a mark on the world of rock as true trailblazers. "Five albums in, the band have grown well beyond their monolithic roots", wrote Doom Charts, who named their last album one of the 2023's best.

This year, following a successful showing at Hellfest and ahead of their long-awaited return to Latin America, Stoned Jesus are embarking on their most expansive journey yet. Songs to Sun is the first in an upcoming trilogy of albums that promises to take these heavy progressive rockers to the dark side of the moon and back. While well-marked by their mind-melting heaviness, the album's lead single is haunted by shadows of doubt. But on "Shadowland", frontman Igor Sydorenko and his new mates outrun their demons with fresh twists and the catchiest hooks of their career. 

"This song is about finding solid ground amidst the instability of the past few years", Sydorenko says. "The opening hook screams Alice In Chains, while the pulsating verses evoke Mastodon at their poppiest. And the climax is something else entirely!"

Watch the high-speed video for "Shadowland" below.

Songs to Sun comes out September 19, 2025 on Season of Mist.

Fans of Stoned Jesus will catch nods to Seven Thunders Roar and The Harvest along the heavy path paved by Songs to Sun. Though the video opens with the band only coming into frame, "Shadowland" is clearly their vision. A grungy riff slithers over a mountainous bass line scooped out by newest member Andrew Rodin. Fellow newcomer Yurii Ciel snaps into a hi-hat strut, greasing the way for Sydorenko to slide into the band's catchiest guitar lick since "Here Come The Robots".  

"Each album in our upcoming trilogy highlights a different phase to Stoned Jesus", Sydorenko says. "Songs to Sun shows off our heavier, more aggressive side".

Stoned Jesus' new single does ride to a mean, road-burning groove. But "Shadowland" has some new tricks tucked between its blinding hooks. "We love to take influences from other musical genres", says Sydorenko. "I like prog rock, while Andrew and Yurii like everything from black metal to hip-hop and folk". As the band wind their way back to the song's shout-aloud chorus, first, they must sift through a glowing mist cast by a gothic spell of keys.  

An existential shadow hangs over Songs to Sun. The album reflects on the unstable ground that Sydorenko navigated after the band's previous lineup dissolved. Like the mysterious figures that creep and crawl around every corner of the video, insecurity looms over "Shadowland"."Ground under my feet is / Turning to quicksand", Sydorenko sings right before the compressed bridge cuts out. But even when shrouded by depression, Stoned Jesus are guided by the spirit of innovation. Right as their new lineup comes fully into focus at the end of the video, the song's closing sprint breaks toward the light with a high-powered fusion of pop melodies and headbanging prog.      
   
"There's a constant sense of instability that seeps through the lyrics of Songs to Sun", Sydorenko says, "but experimenting with the music is what helps give our lives a solid foundation".

The video for "Shadowland" was produced by Pirate Shot (@pirateshotcreation)

Songs to Sun is the first album in a forthcoming trilogy that once complete, will stand as the pinnacle of what's been a decades-long trip for Stoned Jesus. While picking up where Father Light left off, Sydorenko and his new mates still nod to Seven Thunders Roar and The Harvest along the way. But by merging metal's fiery intensity with mind-melting grooves, vintage prog and their catchiest choruses yet, they bring the many distinct phases of Stoned Jesus to a bright, burning head.

Irish Emo Duo GREYWIND Announces New Album ‘Severed Heart City’ Out September 19th via FLG

As the release of their long-awaited new album ‘Severed Heart City’ draws ever closer, Irish brother-sister duo GREYWIND has revealed a further preview of the emo epic. Titled "Moon," the track draws upon Earth’s natural satellite as a universal reminder of the connections that bind us to those we love, defying distance and time.

Guitarist Paul O’Sullivan says,

We had ‘Moon’ written before our first album was even released, so it’s been a song that has been through a lot with us, and we can’t wait for it to finally be free for the world to hear. It’s a song about longing for someone and hoping they’re thinking about you too.”

Vocalist Steph O’Sullivan adds,

I always picture myself sitting on a windowsill, looking up at the moon and dreaming that the person I’m thinking about is doing the exact same thing at that moment. If you’re in a long-distance relationship or even a friendship with someone far away, it’s comforting to look at the moon knowing they’re under it too.”

GREYWIND’s second album ‘Severed Heart City’ will be released September 19th via FLG. Having heralded the start of a new era earlier this year with epic emo cuts, "Acid Rain" and "I.K.A.M.F.." the brother-sister duo recently announced the full-length alongside the release of another arena-ready anthem which will also appear on the record, titled "Waterfall."

Stream/Listen to "Moon" HERE

Getting to this point has been more than a rollercoaster for GREYWIND, whose debut album ‘Afterthoughts’ was released in 2017 via a major label who promptly dropped them despite the band’s ultra-promising “Ones To Watch” status. They’ve gone on to stoke their own creative fire and herald an avid fanbase with a Tik Tok surge during lockdown, an EP released by Version III last year (‘Antidote’), tours and festival appearances across the UK, Europe and North America, and now a partnership with FLG. ‘Severed Heart City’ is both the culmination of and the soundtrack to that journey, taking in all the twists and turns in the siblings’ story, both personally and professionally, along the way.

Steph and Paul O'Sullivan comment on the new album:

’Severed Heart City’ is an extended allegory for the stages of trauma, and one’s inner struggle to find resolution. There are many roads that lead to the heart of this broken city, but there is only one bridge out – one of acceptance and hope. Our band was created after the suicide of our uncle and since then we’ve been on an intense journey of achieving some of our biggest dreams to then having everything ripped away from us. ‘Severed Heart City’ is a place where it’s ok to be sad, depressed and feel like the whole world is against you but it’s also a place where you make sure none of those things ever make you give up on yourself or your dreams. Only you can save yourself.”

KAUPE Unleashes First Single “RMR-1029” from Upcoming Album Destroyer of Worlds

Florida-based progressive metal innovators KAUPE have released the first single from their upcoming full-length album Destroyer of Worlds, due out October 17, 2025 via Morbid Subculture. The track, titled "RMR-1029", is now accompanied by a gripping new music video.

“RMR-1029” marks a turning point for KAUPE, a band known for their instrumental intensity. This time, they’ve enlisted legendary vocalist Scott Angelacos (BLOODLET, JUNIOR BRUCE, HOLLOW LEG) and sample artist Viewer Discretion (formerly of ACP PRO) to help craft a ferocious statement on the breakdown of reality in the age of technological overload. Angelacos’s voice rips through the chaos with prophetic fury, while Viewer Discretion’s carefully selected samples twist the track into a spiraling media hallucination.

The track is as philosophical as it is punishing: an anthem for an era driven by dopamine, distortion, and disinformation. Clocking in at just over four minutes, “RMR-1029” dives into themes of synthetic identity and post-truth culture without ever losing its groove. Featuring razor-sharp guitar work from Brett Walker, pummeling drums by Marc Larabel, and an eerie synth undercurrent courtesy of Patrick Ross, the track’s closing moments explode into a crushing, groove-heavy breakdown that fans of CONVERGE, DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN, and BLOODLET will feel in their bones.

About KAUPE:

KAUPE is an instrumental progressive metal band from Deland, Florida that has spent the last decade forging a sound as ferocious as it is cinematic. Formed in 2016 by guitarist Brett Walker (BLOODLET, JUNIOR BRUCE) and drummer Marc Larabel, the band was born from a desire to create music that tells stories without words, narratives carved into melody, rhythm, and atmosphere. Soon joined by bassist Pete Medrano and keyboardist Patrick Ross, KAUPE solidified into a unit intent on pushing sonic boundaries.

Drawing influence from an eclectic range of artists: FAITH NO MORE, MESHUGGAH, DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN, CARPENTER BRUT, DEFTONES, PALLBEARER, and more, KAUPE crafts music that defies traditional genre expectations. Though most often labeled “progressive metal,” their compositions bend and blend metal, punk, new wave, synth, and even classical elements into sweeping instrumentals full of tension and release. With every release, the band explores new terrain, always moving forward, never nostalgic, and never comfortable.

Their debut The Depths (2018) introduced KAUPE’s penchant for intricate grooves and immersive soundscapes. Cognitive Dissonance (2021) expanded their sonic range and earned praise for its synth-laced melodies and dynamic storytelling. But it’s their upcoming third full-length, Destroyer of Worlds (2025), that fully realizes the band’s vision. For the first time, KAUPE features guest vocalists and sample artists, including: Scott Angelacos (BLOODLET, JUNIOR BRUCE, HOLLOW LEG), Matt Decker (TANGENT, GINKO BALBOA), and Viewer Discretion (formerly of ACP PRO). The result is their heaviest and darkest album yet: a dystopian exploration of modern life and technological dependency, engineered with precision and emotional depth.

Whether performing alongside icons like CYNIC, ANDREW WK, or VIRGIL DONATI, or building immersive sonic worlds in the studio, KAUPE brings unmatched chemistry and purpose to everything they create. Their live shows are celebrated for their energy and musicianship, offering a rare kind of instrumental storytelling that transcends words and speaks directly to the subconscious.

KAUPE is not revivalist. KAUPE is not retro. KAUPE is a glimpse into the sonic future, one shaped by distortion, dissonance, and the haunting beauty of what comes next.

KAUPE is: 
 

  • Brett Walker – Guitar

  • Marc Larabel – Drums

  • Pete Medrano – Bass

  • Patrick Ross – Keys

Arriving hot off the back of a 17-date national tour supporting THY ART IS MURDER, 'Picking Scabs' sees MÉLANCOLIA dive deeper into the world of nu-metal while continuing to blur the edges of metalcore and deathcore. With nods to SLIPKNOT, DJ scratches, ethereal vocal layers, and $UICIDEBOY$-inspired samples, this track stands as their most daring yet. Watch the video here.

'Picking Scabs' follows recent singles 'ALL_IS_RUST' and 'SPIT!', featuring Chris Mackertich of DREGG, both of which signalled an evolution in the band’s sound, introducing new vocal textures and their first-ever guest collaboration. Their new music adds another layer to the dark atmosphere MÉLANCOLIA are becoming known for and were written to be played live, specifically to cater for sing alongs, mosh pits and stage dives.

Momentum is at an all time high for the band, having toured Australia three times over off the back of HissThroughRottenTeethand breaking into Europe and the UK twice on tours with SUFFOCATION (US) and INGESTED(UK).

They released their debut album HissThroughRottenTeeth in April 2023, crafting a unique sound that has already catapulted them to new heights. Their very first show was in 2023 supporting THY ART IS MURDER on their Decade Of Hate Australian Tour alongside STARVE and JUSTICE FOR THE DAMNED. Since this they’ve toured with TO THE GRAVE, FALLUJAH (US),CATTLE DECAPITATION (US), Ingested (UK), VULVODYNIA (SA), SUFFOCATION (US) and many more.

CLAWFINGER Return With New Album 'BEFORE WE ALL DIE' Out February 20, 2026 Via Perception

Before We All Die” CLAWFINGERs first studio album in 18 years, arrives February 20, 2026 on Perception. Loud, furious, darkly humorous and brutally honest, it's everything you forgot you needed — and exactly what you'd expect from a band that never cared much for subtlety.

This isn’t about finding peace,” singer Zak Tell says. “It’s about telling the truth — even when it’s ugly. Especially then.”

From environmental collapse to political hypocrisy, personal disillusionment to collective denial, this is CLAWFINGER at full volume — still pissed off, still sharp as ever, and still refusing to shut up while the world pretends it’s all fine.

Already released, the single "Scum" sets the tone: zero tolerance for corrupt leadership, fake morality, or the rising tide of right-wing garbage. It’s not a love song — unless you really love rage and distortion.

This album is part protest, part therapy, and part middle finger,” the band adds. “We’re not offering solutions. We’re screaming because silence is surrender”.

About CLAWFINGER

 

CLAWFINGER are considered pioneers of European rap-metal. Formed in Stockholm in the early 1990s, the Swedish-Norwegian band made an explosive debut with Deaf Dumb Blind (1993), blending aggressive guitar riffs with politically charged lyrics and rap vocals. The album sold over 600,000 copies worldwide – more than 250,000 in Germany alone – and won a Swedish Grammis award in the hardrock/metal category.

 

CLAWFINGER’s follow-up Use Your Brain [1995] continued their success with chart placements across Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and Sweden. Over the years, they released seven studio albums including A Whole Lot Of Nothing, Zeros & Heroes, Hate Yourself With Style, and Life Will Kill You, selling over 1.5 million records worldwide.

 

Known for their direct, riff-driven sound and strong political stance, CLAWFINGER address topics such as racism, political delusion, drug policy, environmental destruction, and social inequality. In the 1990s, they toured intensively with acts like ALICE IN CHAINS, MEGADETH and FAITH NO MORE and appeared at major festivals including Rock am Ring, Roskilde, and Monsters of Rock in South America.

 

After a brief hiatus, the band returned in 2014 and has since released new singles like "Save Our Souls" [2017] and "Environmental Patients" [2022]. In 2025, CLAWFINGER signed a new label deal with PERCEPTION, with more music on the way - still as loud, sharp, and uncompromising as ever.

Thy Catafalque Release Live Video Ahead of First Latin American Tour

Even when it was only thought of as a studio project, Thy Catafalquehad a vision that extends beyond borders and boundaries. Over the past two decades, Hungarian mastermind Tamás Kátai and his growing cast of collaborators have brought the deadly art of extreme metal into close conversation with the avant-garde.

"XII: A gyönyörű álmok ezután jönnek is a feast for the ears", New Noise wrote in a 5 star review of Thy Catafalque's latest opus. "[it's] a celebration of the powers of music, bursting to express itself in whatever form it chooses to inhabit. An album to inexorably fall in love with". 

Now, fresh off their debuts at Hellfest and Kilkim Žaibu, followed by a resounding return in front of their home crowd at Fishing on Orfű, Thy Catafalque are preparing to tour Latin America for the very first time. As the group prepare to ignite crowds from Mexico to Argentina, today, they are releasing a live video from last year's hometown performance of the most chilling epic off their dark and dreamy twelfth album.      

"This is a massive step-up for Thy Catafalque", Kátai says. "We are very excited to play for our fans in places where we've never gone before".

Watch Thy Catafalque perform "Ködkirály" live at Dürer Kert  Below

XII: A gyönyörű álmok ezután jönnek (The Beautiful Dreams Are Yet to Come) is out now on Season of Mist.

Heading into Thy Catafalque's twelfth album, Tamás Kátai set out to make a straightforward metal record. But A gyönyörű álmok ezután jönnek wound up taking him on another surreal headtrip.

In English, "Ködkirály" translates to "King of Fog". The song unfolds somewhere between dreams and nightmares. Martina Veronika Horváth and Ivett Dudás rise amidst cosmic synths like fog beneath a sinking moon. Their chilling cleans left the sold-out crowd at the influential Hungarian underground venue completely mesmerized. With his deep rippling bass lines, Kátai only deepens the spell.       

Of course, Thy Catafalque aren't ones to leave their fans in suspense. Halfway through "Ködkirály", a death metal riff comes thundering down from the blackened sky. When dueling guitarists Zoltán Vigh and Krisztián Varga  unfurl a procession of gloomy tremolo picking, it's harrowingly clear that the king has come. "Hullj, nehéz eső / Fall, heavy rain", roars Gábor Dudás, commanding the group's many followers to bang their heads.

The video for "Ködkirály" was recorded on November 23, 2024 at Dürer Kert, Budapest, Hungary.

CHILEAN ROCKERS CONSEQUENCE OF ENERGY UNLEASH DEBUT SINGLE, "FREEDOM"

Consequence of Energy is a politically-charged hard rock act from Chile, whose lead-off single, "Freedom," marks their thunderous debut into the international arena. Released on July 18, 2025, "Freedom" features explosive riffs, relentless grooves, and an urgent vocal performance – which hits like a protest anthem born in the heat of global unrest. 
 
Comprised of Michael Bianchi "Sirius" (vocals), Diego Sagredo "Caminantecosmico" (guitar / synths / others), Roli Cortes (guitar / synths), Pedro Javier (bass / backing vocals), and Amaru López Campbell (drums), Consequence of Energy has also issued a music video for the tune via YouTube, which features a performance in front of a festival-sized crowd:
 
Audio: Freedom
 
Video: Consequence of Energy - Freedom (Live)

"Freedom" captures the desperation and defiance of a generation pushed to the brink — a song tailor-made for mosh pits and gym playlists. The production is raw but laser-focused, with modern metal sheen and South American fire. Produced by legendary rock producer Garth Richardson (Rage Against the Machine, Biffy Clyro), mixed by Dave Schiffman (System of a Down, Red Hot Chili Peppers), and mastered by the iconic Howie Weinberg (Nirvana, Soundgarden), the sonic pedigree speaks for itself. 
 
The song is a preview of what is to come in the near future, when the band drops their full-length debut, We Are One – which will be released sometime in late 2025/early 2026. With distribution via AWAL and support from the underground powerhouse Los Lobos Records, the band is set to make a global mark. "Freedom" is the first strike from a full campaign aimed at tearing down borders — sonically and socially.
 
"'Freedom' captures everything I love about a great rock song — raw energy, emotional weight, and total honesty," Richardson said. "Consequence of Energy came into the studio with something urgent to say, and you feel it in every riff and every beat. I'm proud to have worked with them on this track — it's a modern hard rock anthem that hits with purpose."
 
"The song questions the very concept of freedom in a world where structure, ego, and belief systems often masquerade as liberation," the band adds. "It mocks the idea that louder voices or purer ideologies can set us free, when in truth, we're often trapped by the very tools we use to define ourselves. Freedom is not a protest song—it's a mirror. A bold, biting, and brutally honest reflection of a society addicted to control while crying out for release. Consequence of Energy doesn't offer easy answers—just a challenge: What does freedom really mean? And are you ready to face what's in the way?"
 
Fueled by the rhythms of Latin America and shaped by the influence of genre giants like Audioslave, Gojira, and System of a Down, Consequence of Energy delivers music that is equal parts catharsis and confrontation. And soon, rock fans worldwide will get a chance to experience this exciting up and coming band.

RYAN AND RORY KICK UP DUST WITH NEW DANCE-READY TRACK "THEM BOOTS" – OUT NOW

BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville’s rising duo Ryan and Rory are ready to turn any space into a makeshift dance floor with their latest release, “Them Boots,” out now. Listen below.

Fueled by a boot-stomping beat and tongue-in-cheek charm, “Them Boots” puts the spotlight on the kind of fun that doesn’t require a honky-tonk to get going. From riverbanks to red dirt backroads, the track is a playful nod to the country fans who know how to move—no neon lights needed. Directed by Randy Shaffer, Ryan and Rory have audiences line dancing across bar rooms and truck beds in their latest music video, watch Below

Coming off the heels of “Together Again (feat. Jamey Johnson),” a decades-in-the-making, cross-generational collaboration, Ryan and Rory continue to build steam. With viral traction, a growing tour resume (including dates with Brett Young, Sam Hunt, and Jamey Johnson), and a celebrated Opry debut, the duo is carving out their own lane, blending legacy, charisma, and undeniable hooks.

"'Them Boots’ will rock your face off,” says Ryan Follesé. “It is a pure and simple summertime banger."

"This song's built to fire up the party on the lake or beach…and even better to burn down a dance hall,” continues Rory John Zak.

SiriusXM Highway Finds Ryan and Rory are readied for a breakthrough moment, with MusicRow calling them “poised to make major waves on the country music scene” and The Tennessean praising their “commercial polish and honest storytelling.” “Them Boots” is the next chapter in a breakout year for the duo, proving that when the beat hits just right, the dancefloor is wherever you want it to be.
