PROFILER - announce debut album 'A Digital Nowhere' + release video for 'All In Forever'

Alternative metal trio PROFILER have revealed the details of their debut album, A Digital Nowhere, that will be released on February 16th through SharpTone Records. To coincide with the announcement, the band have also released a video for the album's first single 'All In Forever'.

Vocalist and guitarist Mike Evans comments "I had a lot of fun writing this track. It’s actually the first track of the debut writing process. I think it creates a great follow up from our previous EP and continues our old sound, along with hinting what the debut encapsulates. I think it’s the perfect way to kick off A Digital Nowhere. I love the groove and bouncy riffs and I hope our fans enjoy the evolution of our sound."

Watch the video for 'All In Forever' below.

On the process of crafting their debut album, Mike Evans says "I had an amazing time writing our album A Digital Nowhere. Myself and Joe collaborated on this record more than the EP. This was a great opportunity to bounce ideas off of each other. I wrote the majority of the record isolated in my flat during the Covid 19 lockdowns. Although this time was stressful and alien it was a perfect opportunity to create. I think the record is a great evolution of our sound. We are really excited to show people a more varied and mature Profiler. We love the consistent punch of the production and crisp & clear mix that gives our songwriting the credit it deserves. We are incredibly grateful to everyone involved. This album is diverse, original and authentic to us and we feel we’ve created a body of music we will be proud of our whole career."

About PROFILER

Profiler is a Nu-Metal reawakening from the mind of vocalist and guitarist Mike Evans.
 
This band is inspired by those who have incited change in genres, arts, and theories. It's a weight of legacy that Profiler is comfortable shouldering, backed by SharpTone Records, its home since 2020.
 
After starting as a solo project in Bristol, UK, Mike stepped out from the studio and onto the stage, enlisting bassist/vocalist Joe Johnson and drummer Oscar Hocking. In early 2023, Oscar departed to be replaced by Brad Ratcliffe, cementing the line-up that would forge 2024's debut album, A Digital Nowhere.
 
Profiler's nu-metal-grunge-alt-rock, call it what you want, is an abrasive distorted soundscape that reverently glances back to those genres' heydays. Profiler is for anyone who misses or missed the contagious nineties Seattle grunge movement or the explosion of nu-metal that dominated the 00s and the genre-bending bands they made a path for.

PROFILER is:
Mike Evans - Vocals, Guitar
Joe Johnson - Bass
Brad Ratcliffe - Drums

KELAKOS RELEASES ITS FIRST SONG IN 45 YEARS

Today the 70s band Kelakos returns – 45 years after its last studio recordings -- with the first pre-release from the forthcoming 12-song album HURTLING TOWARDS EXTINCTION.  Lead singer / lead guitarist George Kelakos Haberstroh is back with a charismatic voice long-time Kelakos fans will instantly recognize, along with edgy lyrics and tasty guitar licks burning with intensity.

The band’s remixed, remastered 70s catalogue, a 15-track CD released in 2015 as KELAKOS UNCORKED: RARE TRACKS FROM A VINTAGE 70s BAND, gained recognition and critical praise 37 years after their 1978 album GONE ARE THE DAYS.  “Best Boston Band You’ve Never Heard” (CBS Boston Classic 1007WZLX) and “One of 2015’s Top New Music Re-Issues (Phil’s Picks) were among many strong reviews; Goldmine gave the release 4 stars. This brought the band members back together to test their appetite for new recordings.  The result was an explosion of rock energy, memorable songwriting and singing, and clean, rich production handled by Linc Bloomfield.  It is as if 45 years of time never happened.  Kelakos picked right up where it left off in 1978.

Livin’ on the Planet love is a first peek at this amazing new collection of Kelakos songs.  Carl Canedy on drums, Mark Sisson on pedal steel, and Linc Bloomfield on bass, rhythm guitars, keyboards and background vocals deliver a crisp, colorful track that rocks with the classic vibe and melodic hooks the band brought to every song since they recorded the first Kelakos single in 1976.

Check out the video of Livin’ on the Planet Love below, which pulls the viewer into a universe of vivid imagery near and far, reminding us how much fun this music can be and also the dues this band paid back in the days when rock legends were in their prime, but also holding a mirror up to our turbulent world.

GO AHEAD AND DIE | ANNOUNCE 'UNHEALTHY MECHANISMS TOUR 2024'

Arizona death-crusters GO AHEAD AND DIE are kicking off 2024 with their first US trek entitled the 'Unhealthy Mechanisms Tour 2024'. The 55-day trek will kick off on January 19th in Tuscon and will make its way across the U.S. making stops in Dallas, Brooklyn, and Seattle before concluding in Jerome, Arizona on March 24th. Opening each night will be Florida death metal slam band, BODYBOX as well as SECOND SHOOTER (Jan. 19-28), HALF HEARD VOICES (Feb. 7-22), MADZILLA (Mar. 1-10), and DEEP WITHIN (Mar. 11-24).

GO AHEAD AND DIE will be touring in support of their sophomore album, Unhealthy  Mechanisms,
 which was released last week via Nuclear Blast Records. A torrential whirlwind born from the livid minds of Igor Amadeus Cavalera (HEALING MAGIC) and Max Cavalera (SOULFLY, CAVALERA CONSPIRACY). This new installment to the band's dystopian catalog is a fresh dive into the madness of society and the pollution that ravages our minds.

Max Cavalera comments, "Remember the mosh pit, the sweat, and the aggression, Go Ahead And  Die is bringing all that back through their live show! Together with Bodybox we’re going to set the underground on fire and make Metal dangerous again!"

Igor Amadeus Cavalera states, “Go Ahead And Die will be coming to a city near you! It will be a night of heavy riffs, blast beats, and grinding growls that you do not want to miss. For the first time ever, you’ll be able to hear these songs live and it will be unlike anything you’ve seen before!!!”

Unhealthy Mechanisms was produced by Igor Amadeus Cavalera while John Aquilino handled the recording in his Platinum Underground Studio steeped in the mystic ambiance of the Superstition Mountains’ foothills. The mixing and mastering were once again handled by Arthur Rizk (CAVALERA, SOULFLY, TURNSTILE). For the artwork, the band enlisted Santiago Jaramillo of Triple Seis Design to create the unnerving design that fits with the album title. GO AHEAD AND DIE's newest record is a testament to declining mental health around the world, and a reminder that we are not alone in our pain. The mind is lost. The fuse is lit. Time to set everything ablaze.

TOM GABRIEL WARRIOR'S 'TRIUMPH OF DEATH' ANNOUNCE DEBUT VIDEO 'MASSACRA'

DEBUT ALBUM ‘RESURRECTION OF THE FLESH’ RELEASED ON NOISE/BMG ON NOVEMBER 10th, 2023
PREORDER
HERE 

 


Tom Gabriel Warrior : “The revivification of Hellhammer's "Massacra", almost forty years after the song's inception. The new single and first video clip to accompany Triumph Of Death's "Resurrection Of The Flesh", an immoderate on-stage celebration of Hellhammer's music.”

Triumph Of Death’s debut live release Resurrection Of The Flesh is the culmination of three concerts. Recorded in the spring of 2023 at Hell’s Heroes Festival in Houston USA, Dark Easter Metal Meeting in Munich, Germany and SWR Barroselas Metal Fest in Portugal, the album was produced by Tom Gabriel Warrior and Triptykon's V. Santura. The record captures the band at their primeval finest; raw, foreboding and heavy. These Hellhammer songs may date back four decades but here they are revealed to be still just as vital today as when they were written in theband’s infamous rehearsal bunker in the rural village of Birchwil, Switzerland in the early 1980s. From the thunderous opening chords of Third Of The Storms (Evoked Damnation) to the malevolent, morbid feedback of set closer Triumph Of Death, this album is a sixty minute document of the overwhelming power of the live performance of Triumph Of Death, and it captures the spirit and intensity of these historic songs that have transcended decades to become revered and timeless.

Resurrection Of The Flesh will be available as:
• Deluxe CD mediabook
• Double gatefold LP w/booklet and posters on black vinyl and B&W swirl (indie store exclusive)
• Super deluxe double red vinyl LP bookpack with bonus 7” single plus posters and photo card

Triumph Of Death 
Tom Gabriel Warrior - voice/guitar
André Mathieu - guitar/vocals
Jamie Lee Cussigh - bass
Tim Iso Wey – drums

Gunship Share Cover Of "Send Me An Angel" Lyric Video

Synthwave pioneers Gunship — Dan Haigh, Alex Westaway, and Alex Gingell — today release a special cover of Real Life's 1980s smash hit, "Send Me An Angel," an otherworldly, heavy synth-rock rendition available to stream in time for Halloween. 

The defining soundtrack to legendary BMX movie RAD is back with a vengeance and in the care of Gunship and their signature synth sounds and powerful modern production. Hop on your tricked out BMX and shred the night away to this retro modern take on one of the biggest songs of the '80s.

Gunship says, "'Send Me An Angel' is a cornerstone of '80s synth pop — its driving synth bass and mesmeric lead lines remain an influence on GUNSHIP's production style to this day. However, the song's involvement in the classic BMX movie RAD truly heightened the song's resonance with us to a whole other level. Endless summer, BMX upgrades, and Helltrack… definitely 'Rad' times."

Stream Gunship's "Send Me An Angel" here.

Watch the lyric video below.

To celebrate the release of "Send Me An Angel," Gunship have launched an exciting BMX-themed competition. Fans are invited to post video clips of their best BMX tricks to their socials and use the hashtag #GUNSHIPBMX. The band will select three winners to receive some Gunship swag, and will also repost good tricks on their socials.

This isn't the first time the band have released a cover in the spirit of Halloween. In 2020, they released a modern-day "Eleanor Rigby," having found themselves continuously drawn to the iconic Beatles' lyric "Look at all the lonely people." The track reimagined the character of Eleanor alive today and experiencing the isolation of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

"Send Me An Angel" comes fresh off the back of the band's third studio album, UNICORN, released last month. Gunship invite their listeners to celebrate the power of imagination on the record, named after the international icon of fantasy and imagination, it's emblazoned with the tagline "Imagination Is A Weapon." The trio's trademark, synth-laden atmosphere and transportative soundscapes continue to evolve to include more rock, industrial, and EDM influences, allowing the listener to revel in an alternative reality on a 14-track electric thrill ride.

Unicorn boasts a diverse array of special guests, who each bring something different to the project. Collaborators include: John Carpenter, Gavin Rossdale (Bush), Dave Lombardo (Slayer), Carpenter Brut, Tim Cappello (Lost Boys, Tina Turner, Ringo Starr), Health, Tyler Bates (John Wick, Guardians of the Galaxy etc), Lights, Power Glove, Charlie Simpson, Britta Philips (Jem), Milkie Way (Wargasm) and Stella Le Page. 

Embodying the saying "it's better to light a candle than to curse the darkness," Gunship seek to curse the darkness as well as to provide illumination with their darker and more positive material respectively, while consistently evolving the synthwave genre they helped to pioneer. 

With the album's release came new single "Empress of The Damned," featuring Canadian powerhouse, Lights. Opening with a spooky John Carpenter-esque horror aura, the damnation quickly resolves into a pounding synthwave and EDM-fused tour de force. Returning collaborator Tim Cappello (The Lost Boys, Tina Turner) blasts blazing saxophone lines evoking some of the best '80s classics, while on vocals, fresh from recent collaborations with Deadmau5, i_o, Felix Cartel and Illenium, Lights delivers the powerful melodic hooks she is famous for. "Empress Of The Damned" boasts cultural and video game references abound, in hypnotic and bass heavy verses which give way to soaring choruses filled with Gunship's signature '80s pop sensibility. It's a fiery take on the classic 1980s duets of yesteryear. 

Elsewhere, bass-driven, industrial-rock offering "DooM Dance," is a vivid sonic experience. On the track, rock icon and Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale delivers searing vocals, while synthwave powerhouse Carpenter Brut serves up some devastating electronic riffs. "DooM Dance" is inspired by the frenetic ‘dance’ gamers perform when vastly outnumbered and battling wave after wave of enemies in the now legendary video game DooM. 

Gunship make a name for themselves by linking their music and video releases with popular culture, whether that be film, like the Blade Runner x The Terminator dystopia in the new era's first release, "Monster In Paradise" (Feat. Milkie Way, Dave Lombardo, Tim Cappello, Tyler Bates)  or the gaming world, as with "DooM Dance" and previous album single "Taste Like Venom," which paid homage to Sega's classic arcade game Outrun. 

Milkie Way (the fiery frontwoman of Wargasm), pays homage to the indomitable Sarah Connor from The Terminator films, on "Monster In Paradise," a key highlight. Driving Sarah's classic 1983 Jeep CJ-7 Renegade and providing a Terminator style voice over, Milkie initially appears to be giving a performance true to Sarah Connor's character, although perhaps things are not quite as they seem… Are the machines recruiting humans with a mind-altering silver liquid? Watch the music video here

In an equally cyber-futuristic offering, "Ghost" (Feat. Power Glove), released later last year, asked artificial intelligence to show the world "What happens after we die?" The cyberpunk tune was accompanied by an AI-generated video. Cutting edge and psychedelic, the video was created via various emerging artificial intelligence and machine learning tools, including OpenAI's DALL-E, the open-source Stable Diffusion as well as Midjourney. 

Dive into the full, fantasy world of Unicorn now… 

ABOUT GUNSHIP:
GUNSHIP are Dan Haigh, Alex Westaway, and Alex Gingell. The band’s sound is created with vintage analogue synthesizers and other retro electronic gear from the 1980s. Driven and inspired by nostalgia for a bygone era, Gunship harness this retro approach to birth something fresh and new. Their sound is sonically diverse — blending sweeping fluorescent synth lines with fever pitched and adrenalizing electric bass arpeggios. Dan Haigh from Gunship describes their sound as "a neon-soaked, late night, sonic getaway drive, dripping with luscious analogue synthesizers, cinematic vocals and cyberpunk values, exploding from the front cover of a dusty plastic VHS case which has lain forgotten since 1984." Gunship was formed in 2014 as a new musical venture for Westaway and Haigh, also members of post-hardcore band Fightstar with Charlie Simpson (Busted) and Omar Abidi, going on hiatus in 2010. Unicorn follows their critically acclaimed self-titled debut (Gunship, 2015), and 2018 follow-up Dark All Day.

Dead Icarus, Feat. ex-Atreyu Singer Alex Varkatzas, Share "So I Set Myself On Fire"

Dead Icarus, the new project of former Atreyu lead vocalist and Gold-selling artist Alex Varkatzas, has shared the third single, titled "So I Set Myself on Fire." Listen below.

"'So I Set Myself on Fire' is about finding inspiration in darkness," Varkatzas said. "It's about letting your inspiration consume you so fully that it changes you into something else — a driven, unstoppable force of nature."

 Dead Icarus previously shared the video for the new single "
Sellout." Watch it here. The track is a hyperkinetic slab of fast-paced, face-ripping metal with layered vocals and a pit-clearing breakdown. The song shows off a different side of the artist's musical personality. It hits hard, but it's also infused with a melody that just won't quit. Dead Icarus followed with the video for "The Vultures Circle," an equally brutal banger. Watch it here.

A staple of Ozzfest in the mid-2000s with two gold albums and several gold singles, Atreyu is one of the defining bands of the New Wave of American Heavy Metal, alongside groups like Avenged Sevenfold and Lamb Of God. Metalcore classics like The Curse and A Death-Grip on Yesterday were powered by Alex's distinctive scream. 

The band is officially signed to MNRK Heavy, with more music on the way.

Tigirlily Gold Kick-Starts Holiday Season w/ “Falalala Falling,” Out Now

Monument Records’ sister duo Tigirlily Gold is “Falalala Falling” into the Christmas spirit, releasing their whimsical original Christmas song today via Monument Records. Written by Kendra and Krista Slaubaugh, alongside Alex Kline and Scott Stepakoff, “Falalala Falling” captures the romanticism of the holidays spent with a loved one. Listen Below.
 
        It’s getting kinda cold, so baby hold me close
        Wrapped up in each other like we’re underneath the tree
        Ain’t no kind of falling like falalala falling
        In love on Christmas Eve
 
"During the holiday season, there’s always a little extra magic in the air that makes you want to fall in love even more! ‘Falalala Falling’ is all about capturing that feeling of being with the one you love, snuggling up by the fire, and watching the snow fall,” share Kendra and Krista. “We grew up in North Dakota, and we are all too familiar with getting 'snowed in,' but it’s not always the worst case scenario if you’re snowed in with the one you love!"
 
Keeping in the holiday spirit, Tigirlily Gold’s 2021 cover of Faith Hill’s classic “Where Are You Christmas?” is featured in a 2023 Hallmark movie of the same name, which debuted last Saturday, Oct. 21 on Hallmark Channel. The movie, starring Lyndsy Fonseca, centers around her character, Addy, who wishes for a year without Christmas, and comes to regret it when that wish comes true. It will re-air every week.
 
Tigirlily Gold spent more than five years honing their craft on Nashville’s Lower Broadway, honing their stage presence and songwriting while delivering four-hour sets, three to four nights a week. Born from those years spent entertaining the rowdy Broadway crowds, their debut EP Blonde, released earlier this year, captures that energy while highlighting the girls’ versatile songwriting. 
 
The sisters recently performed their top-40 hit “Shoot Tequila” off Blonde on “TODAY with Hoda & Jenna.” The upbeat party anthem is reminiscent of the push and pull of a toxic relationship, nodding to the irresistible temptation of caving to the “bad influence” of a tequila-induced night. Watch the performance 
HERE.
 
“Falalala Falling” comes as they prepare to release more new music, with their debut full-length album due in early 2024. For the latest information visit, 
tigirlily.com and follow along on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook @tigirlily and on TikTok @TigirlilyGold.
 
About Tigirlily Gold:
Sister duo Tigirlily Gold has been playing music together since they could walk, and officially formed their band in high school. Growing up, they crisscrossed the mid-west, growing a fierce fan base and selling out amphitheaters across their home-state of North Dakota. After moving to Nashville, they landed a weekly residence at Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row on Nashville’s famed lower Broadway. Playing four-hour sets, three to four nights a week, the sisters developed a performance style that’s not only captivating and fun but shows just how much entertaining is in their blood. 
 
After releasing their original song “
Somebody Does,” in 2021, the track topped the iTunes chart and Tigirlily Gold was signed to Monument Records. They released their self-titled, debut EP in July 2021, working with multi-Grammy Award Winner Shane McAnally, and hit the road with artists like Walker Hayes and Ashley McBryde. 
 
Now, the powerhouse duo has embarked on a new musical chapter with their EP, Blonde – a deeply personal project that includes tales of love and loss alongside powerful anthems and songs of female empowerment. Their current single, “Shoot Tequila,” has already found viral success with millions of views across social media, and millions of streams across platforms. The song is climbing the country radio charts now. Ready to bring girl group energy back to country music, Tigirlily Gold is poised for a breakout year.

The Wait Is Over: Of Virtue Release 'Omen' Album and Title Track Single

Rising as an unrivaled force in metal, Of Virtue, have today unleashed their highly anticipated album, "Omen" via Arising Empire Records. Accompanying the thunderous release is its enigmatic title track single, which serves as a captivating prelude to the emotional journey that "Omen" holds. Fans can listen to the new album below.

Speaking on today's album release, Damon Tate shares:

"This record is 3 years and a whole lifetime in the making. If we had listened to everyone who told us to give up and move on - or the doubt in our own minds that can creep in - then we wouldn't be standing here today, stronger than ever. OMEN is a shining beacon that we can change ourselves for the better and attempt to provide that same light for others in the process. We did not choose to exist in this life, everyone's circumstances and situations are different. For us, it is a privilege and a responsibility to shine our light onto others, as those artists and kind human beings did for us during our darkest hours. We do not have to be slaves to past decisions, mistakes made, or self-sabotage as long as we keep putting one foot in front of the other."

Regarding today's single release, Tate continues:

"Omen was written as an open letter to my younger self. Nobody can change the past or the mistakes that were made - the only thing we can do is be as open and honest about our journey with others that may be in a similar situation so they can potentially avoid some of the harsh realities that can come along with growing up. For a long time, I bottled up the shame and guilt attached with my alcohol/drug abuse and even though I was on a road to recovery, those negative behaviors started to manifest themselves in other ways that were equally as unhealthy."

Harnessing the potent fusion of powerful melodies and emotionally charged lyrics, Of Virtue maintain a steadfast commitment to authenticity, consistently redefining the genre while staying true to their artistic essence. Beyond their musical prowess, the metal powerhouse also serve as passionate mental health advocates on and off stage. Often seen using their platform to raise awareness and openly discuss these vital issues, Of Virtue have become a source of hope and inspiration for countless fans facing similar challenges.

Mixed and mastered by none other than Daniel Braunstein (known for his work with Spiritbox, The Ghost Inside, Silverstein), "Omen" is poised to leave an indelible mark on the genre as a whole. In addition to being a testament to Of Virtue's artistic evolution, "Omen" positions them for success as they embark on a triumphant European tour and Pulp Summer Slam, where they are set to share the stage with industry heavyweights Parkway Drive and Code Orange next year.

Be sure to stay tuned for more Of Virtue news coming soon.

WHAT THE PRESS ARE SAYING:

"Of Virtue came to impress with the release of Omen, and they delivered tenfold. Pushing beyond the traditional boundaries of hardcore and metal, Of Virtue's Omen does not disappoint. The wide range of various stylistic influences gives every type of listener something to enjoy while highlighting the band's creativity, talent, and artistry."

Music Scene Media

"In sum, "Omen" is a captivating mosaic of modern metalcore. It's an exploration of electronic-infused melodies, thunderous breakdowns, guttural roars, and relentless rhythms. Of Virtue's willingness to push boundaries and embrace experimentation shines through, making "Omen" a sonic odyssey worth embarking on."

You Make The Scene

Of Virtue's unstoppable rise continues as they secure the coveted cover spot on Spotify's "Kickass Metal" and feature prominently on Spotify's "All New Metal." The impact of their album "Omen" is undeniable, with the record reaching the Top 20 on iTunes' Rock Chart within hours of its release and earning a place in the Top 3 of US Albums.

ABOUT OF VIRTUE

Emerging from Michigan, Of Virtue has transformed into an internationally acclaimed and critically revered alternative powerhouse. Their journey has been nothing short of remarkable, with their music resonating in over 30 countries, multiple Billboard chart successes, Top 50 Mediabase FM radio placements, and an impressive 25 million streams. Of Virtue's ethos centers around embracing change and fostering progress, ensuring their continuous evolution and growth.

The band's music seamlessly melds melodic, catchy, and ethereal elements, underpinned by the commanding, heavy guitars of Damon Tate and Mike Valadez. Vocalists Tyler Ennis and Damon Tate contribute versatile vocal dynamics, while drummer Ryan Trinh anchors the monstrous rhythm section with precision. This lineup solidifies Of Virtue as an eclectic and engaging musical entity, weaving together diverse influences across a spectrum of genres and styles to craft a sound that is undeniably their own. 

With their upcoming record, 'Omen,' on the horizon, Of Virtue pushes their artistic boundaries even further. It serves as a clear warning: the path to tomorrow is paved by the lessons of yesterday. Carefully navigate the present, adapt, and evolve, or risk being left behind.

Supreme Unbeing release new single “Scarecrow” for Halloween

SUPREME UNBEING is an elusive5-piece metal band shrewd in mystery. Led by vocalist Zac Red, who taps into the depths of the human psyche to unfold paramount messages for the benefit of mankind, accompanied by his most terrifying thoughts: The Demon, The Shadow, The Nightmare & The Legend.  The band is about to scare the public in time for Halloween through tricky riffs and spooky lyrics!

Although the band just recently played their first show on Earth for a sold-out crowd in Stockholm, Sweden, their impact has been felt in the physical domain since the release of their two full-length albums “Enter Reality” (2020) and “EnduringPhysicality” (2022) with a loyal fan-base reaching all across the globe.  Highlights include +10 million streams, noteworthy reviews and premiers in esteemed magazines such as Revolver, Metal Hammer, Rock Hard, and Sweden Rock Magazine, as well as landing Spotify editorial play lists for multiple singles. 

Despite all the success, the band has felt uncomfortable with their visual imagery, as it was based on cartoonish animation from their first music videos. That’s why the band has decided to drop their previous monikers and adopt a ghastly identity fit for Halloween and other scary occasions, as they release the nightmarish, yet head-bangingly persuasive new song–Scarecrow- on Friday, October 27th, 2023. 

“When the night falls the frights and phobias of mankind come alive, the scarecrow of your mind reminds you of who controls your fantasy. Yes, the creepy scarecrow! Often presenting itself as a demon in your dreams or a shadow in the night, the scarecrow stirs up your own beliefs and nurtures your most horrifying fantasies. No one can escape the scarecrow!” says Zac Red.

Watch the video for 'Scarecrow' below:

With+7 million views combined on YouTube for the most popular track 'Animals' (2020), which featured ex-Megadeth bassist David Ellefson (in a cartoon render), and the tracks 'Face Of Evil' (2021), 'Hide The Beast' (2021), 'Savior' (2022) all featuring Swedish actor Dragomir Mrsic (known from Snabba Cash, and Edge Of Tomorrow, co-starred along Tom Cruise).  Supreme Unbeing continues their tradition of visualizing their music in a cinematic, action-filled, fashion. This time by partnering with G13 Production House, who have produced recent videos for the likes of Amon Amarth, Arch Enemy, Behmoth, Kreator and many more, to capture the horrifying essence of the scarecrow.

The video, filmed in an actual abandoned laboratory in Wroclaw, Poland which was used during WW2 in thought-control experiments, may scare the living guts out of us all as we get to revisit the mad scientist who tried to create the perfect demon.

“There is no sanctuary, one of us must die!” Concludes Zac.

Red Mixed & mastered by World-renown producer & engineer Lasse Lammert (Alestorm, Gloryhammer and countless more), the track will be available on Friday, October 27th on Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, YouTube (video) and all major streaming services.

London's SABATTA takes a blistering psychedelic rock trip on new single 'Get Over Yourself'

"An unholy amalgamation of sounds... Refusing to obey genre lines, they eventually realised that their misfit sound was what defined them – and they didn't want to fit in anyway" ~ Clash Magazine

"Charismatic and wild, frontman Yinka Oyewole leads the band through psychedelia, grunge punk and funk with some great shredding and even falsetto heights.... Sabatta drives a blaze of fiery, magnetic vocals, funked-out bass and thrashing guitar" ~ The Spill Magazine

"Exhibiting a style that can be closely linked to punk legends Bad Brains and Dead Kennedys... uncompromising modern punk rock music" ~ Fortitude Magazine

"The grit and the glory of ‘Get Over Yourself’ is a powerful calling card for the album... You can hear the London concrete embedded in their sound and it is brutalist and compelling"  ~ Joyzine


London alternative-psychedelic rock artist
Sabatta has released his new single 'Get Over Yourself', an ode to the obliviously self-important and the second taste of his new album 'How To Get Even’ (out on November 17 via Blackfriars Entertainment) with a video that introduces the unique guitar - The Pick! Aka AfroGuitar!

‘Get Over Yourself' deals with ‘build em up, break em down’ celebrity culture via a barrage of grimy riffs, pumping bass and pounding drums.This relentless rocker is anchored by a heavy and hypnotic chorus, which backs the vocal mantra of the track’s title! Also included is a shredfest solo, as ferocious as a social media comment section! Beware, no one is safe, as the saying goes ‘the internet is undefeated!’

Revolving around guitarist and songwriter Yinka Oyewole, who was raised in Essex and is of Nigerian lineage, Sabatta crafts a raw and individual sound with spiky guitar and an inimitable voice, like a mix of Hendrix, QOTSA and early Red Hot Chili Peppers strained through the sieve of South London. And it's no wonder with musical influences ranging from Curtis Mayfield, Prince, Tupac and Hendrix to Bad Brains, Thin Lizzy, Parliament / Funkadelic and Black Sabbath.

"Inspiration for ‘Get Over Yourself’ came from the current thirst for fallen idols. It’s like a modern day version of human sacrifice, but lives have been replaced by reputations and the Gods are the insatiable beasts of social media opinion. Beware, no one is safe, as the saying goes ‘the internet is undefeated!" says Yinka Oyewole.

The album's lead single ''Get Your Shit Together' is a wake up call to the masses. A funkadelic groove-laden track that is as addictive as it is memorable, the video for ‘Get Your Shit Together’ explores what happens when the opposing sides of our conscience come to life.

Yinka Oyewole says "this is the most cohesive and free Sabatta album I’ve produced. It’s also the most raw and unfiltered. I love storytelling, I love guitar playing, I love grooves. And I love being my own person, even if that's seen as rebellious or contrary, on the new album I’m just being me."

Produced and mixed by Yinka Oyewole, this album was recorded by Alex Franklinos at
Shrunken Heads Studio (King Krule, Ghostpoet, Songdog, Domino Records) and mastered at London's EC Mastering (Sony, Universal, BBC),

Yinka Oyewole began making noise with Sabatta's debut album 
'Middle Of the Night', released in 2015. With their sound, being compared to Hendrix and QOTSA, but  with an edge like Bad Brains and The Clash, the album’s lead single 'Politician'garnered national play on BBC 6 Music, setting the band off touring nationally.

As of October 27, ‘Get Over Yourself’ will be available across digital platforms, including
Spotify, Apple Music and Bandcamp. Sabatta's album 'How To Get Even’ will be released on Friday, November 17.

CHAYCE BECKHAM RELEASES “WHISKEY ON THE WALL,” FOLLOWING GRAND OLE OPRY DEBUT

American Idol winner Chayce Beckham - who just made his Grand Ole Opry debut (October 18) and is currently on Luke Bryan’s Country On Tour - today releases “Whiskey On The Wall,” as his entirely self-written hit single “23” surges toward Top 15, after earning RIAA PLATNUM status. Pleading to drown out the burn of heartbreak, the new song finds a man seeking solace in a whiskey vice when things go south.

Now RIAA-certified platinum, the semi-autobiographical song has racked up over 330 million on-demand streams and topped numerous viral charts, including #1 on iTunes All-Genre and Country charts. The first to ever win ABC’s American Idol with an original song, “23” is a deeply personal depiction of a man’s hardships, self-written during a particularly dark time in Beckham’s own life before he auditioned for the star-making competition series.

Since his history-making win, Beckham and his voice that Katy Perry said “sounds like the heart of America” has earned him critical acclaim from ABC’s Good Morning America and Jimmy Kimmel, E! News!BillboardPeople , CMTPopCultureSweety HighAmerican Songwriter and more.

The rising country star, whose voice Katy Perry said “sounds like the heart of America,” went from working as a fork-lift driver to winning American Idol to appearing on Good Morning America, Jimmy Kimmel, and Live with Kelly & Ryan to becoming a truly prolific songwriter in the room with some of Nashville’s best.

The Requiem Announce Debut Album "A Cure to Poison the World" + Share New Video

ALBUM ARRIVES FEBRUARY 16 VIA FEARLESS RECORDS

BAND SHARES VIDEO FOR "AN ELEGY WRITTEN ON PORCELAIN ARMS"


Darkly romantic Florida rock band THE REQUIEM — Damien [vocals], Felipe [lead guitar], and Salem [bass] — will release their debut album A Cure to Poison the World on February 16, 2024 via Fearless Records. Pre-order it
here.

Today, the band has shared the video for new single "An Elegy Written on Porcelain Arms." Watch it
below.

On the track, the band goes from 0 to 60 and they stay there. It's a high energy hard rocker with potent, pop punk vibes. It will remind you of your favorite '00s Warped Tour bands, but with a modern edge.

 "This song is about seeing someone disappear into themselves as they pass on, and the feeling of hopelessness you get from being little to no help for them, only as an emotional tourniquet of sorts," the band explains.

Regarding the album as a whole, the band sees it as a catalyst with which to directly connect with fans. "I want people to actually be able to relate to the music and identify," Damien says. "It's the same way I felt my favorite artists spoke for me." Felipe shares the sentiment, saying, "Our goal is to be our most pure form These songs thematically reference growing up, the struggles of becoming an adult, and lessons we've learned."

ABOUT THE REQUIEM:
No matter how sunny it may be in Broward County, a different energy exists beneath the surface. Each generation it seeps out, either in the area's shock rock luminaries during the nineties or a bevy of post-Soundcloud rap stars in the twenty-tens. That brings us to The Requiem. The Broward County, FL trio—Damien [vocals], Felipe [lead guitar], and Salem [bass]—piece together elements of alternative, rock, emo, and even eighties into an uncompromising and undeniable vision of what music can be without boundaries. After piling up over 1 million streams independently and stirring up buzz, the group captivate on a series of 2023 singles and more to come.
 
"We want to represent our generation in the best way possible," exclaims Damien. "Rock music has lost the sloppiness and the vulgarity it used to have. When you're young, you need to embrace that attitude and danger. We want to bring all of that back to alternative music."
 
The band embarked on this mission back in 2020. Damien teamed up with Salem and Felipe. Together, they nodded to influences as diverse as The Used, AFI, Pierce The Veil, and Finch as well as Ozzy Osbourne, Mötley Crüe, and Genesis. They gained traction with the independent single "Corpse Party," reeling in 371K Spotify streams and counting.
