Chase Rice Announces 'Get Western 2024 Tour' Launching in February

Following a summer of sold-out dates on his own headlining run, plus appearances with Jelly Roll and Old Dominion in arenas across the U.S. this fall, Diamond-certified songwriter and multi-Platinum star in his own right Chase Rice now brings his critically acclaimed album I Hate Cowboys & All Dogs Go To Hell to fans in Canada with the Get Western 2024 Tour.
 
Kicking off in Vancouver, the run will visit 11 Canadian cities including Calgary, Edmonton, Montreal and more throughout February. Rice will also preface the run with a headlining show in Seattle, Wash. earlier in the month. 
 
Rising star and Canada native Owen Riegling joins as direct support across most dates, with Fort Worth-based singer-songwriter Palmer Anthony joining in Seattle and Vancouver. See the full list of dates below for details.
 
Tickets to all Canada dates go on sale this Friday, Nov. 24, while tickets for Seattle, Wash. are available to purchase now via ChaseRice.com.
 
“From radio to live shows, Canada has always been so good to us,” notes Rice. “I had the chance to explore even more of the beautiful country during my time off from touring earlier this summer, and I can’t wait to come back in the new year for these shows with our Canadian fans.”
 
Fans will be treated to performances of Rice’s chart-topping hits as well as songs off his latest album, I Hate Cowboys & All Dogs Go To Hell. Recorded during an immersive two-week period at Rice’s farm outside Nashville with producer Oscar Charles and a live band using a makeshift recording setup, the album showcases a more raw, vulnerable side of the man praised by the Tennessean for having “crashed through a glass ceiling both he and the industry had imposed on his career” with the project and by Billboard as “an artist who’s somehow managed to totally change his handwriting a decade in.”

About Chase Rice
With more than 2.4 million albums sold and over 2.5 billion total streams, plus a legion of passionate fans at his high-energy concerts across the globe, Chase Rice has established himself as a powerful force in Nashville and beyond. With the critically acclaimed album I Hate Cowboys & All Dogs Go To Hell crafted in his rural Tennessee home-turned-studio available everywhere now, Rice’s sound continues to evolve to reflect the realities of his life; from emotional reckoning to an admiration of the Western way of life. The new music, including current single “Bad Day To Be A Cold Beer” and standout track “Bench Seat,” serves as a follow up to his three-part project, The Album, featuring his latest Platinum-certified No. 1 hit, “Drinkin’ Beer. Talkin’ God. Amen. (feat. Florida Georgia Line)” and Platinum-certified Top 10 hit “Lonely If You Are.” This is the same gravelly-voiced Chase Rice fans first fell in love with years ago – but better, freer; unbeholden and uninhibited. The new music builds upon the success of his sophomore album, Lambs & Lions, which featured the 3x Platinum, two-week chart topper “Eyes On You” – Rice’s first No. 1 as an artist and the most-streamed song of his career. Lambs & Lions followed Platinum-certified Ignite the Night, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums and No. 3 on the all-genre chart, producing a pair of Top 5 hits; Platinum-certified “Gonna Wanna Tonight” and Double Platinum “Ready Set Roll.” In addition to guesting on sold-out stadium shows with Kenny Chesney and Garth Brooks, Rice consistently sells out venues on his own headlining tours, including the recently-wrapped Way Down Yonder Tour in support of his new music.

MuttNation Foundation Announces Miranda Lambert New Shelter Grant

MuttNation Foundation proudly announces the Miranda Lambert New Shelter Grant, in honor of three-time GRAMMY award winner and New York Times best-selling author Miranda Lambert, who co-founded the celebrated nonprofit with her mother, Bev Lambert, in 2009. MuttNation Foundation’s mission is to advance the adoption of shelter pets, promote spay and neuter and assist during times of natural disaster.

The Miranda Lambert New Shelter Grant is awarded in the spirit of giving a “paw” up to an organization that has recently opened after proving they’ve done the hard work necessary to achieve lift-off. The inaugural Miranda Lambert New Shelter Grants were awarded to two Tennessee organizations: Crossroads Campus and Wags & Walks.
 
“So many great people were there for me when I was getting started, people who believed in what I was doing, and it meant so much to me,” said Lambert. “I’m proud to be able to be there now, for some of the great organizations that are just getting off the ground. I know how much passion and hard work goes into it – it starts as a dream and the work is rewarding… and endless. I have so much respect for the people who make it happen.”
 
Crossroads Campus, located in Nashville, partners young adults who face barriers to employment and housing, including young people who have aged out of foster care, with shelter pets at risk for euthanasia. The youth reside on the north Nashville ‘campus’ and pay rent based on their income. In addition to caring for homeless pets awaiting adoption, they are also provided with career guidance and the opportunity to work at Crossroads in a variety of capacities, including learning pet grooming skills.

Wags & Walks, which has opened its new adoption facility in Hermitage, Tenn., has helped find homes for over 3,500 dogs since it first opened its Nashville operation as a rescue in 2019. Now a full-fledged adoption center, Wags & Walks houses up to 100 dogs between their adoption center and foster homes as they prepare for their new forever homes. Wags & Walks is focused on advocating for wrongfully stereotyped bully breeds, medical dogs and mothers with puppies that are often overlooked and at-risk due to overcrowding.

The Miranda Lambert New Shelter Grant was created by the MuttNation Foundation Board of Directors to help more pets and the people and organizations who care for them while honoring Lambert’s lifetime of love and dedication to animals. There is no application process for the Miranda Lambert New Shelter Grant; recipients are selected by the Board of Directors.

About MuttNation Foundation

HELGA Streaming Debut Album

Hailing from the Swedish hinterlands of Dalarna and Halifax, West Yorkshire, HELGA came together in 2019. United by singer Helga Gabriel, the quintet delve into a musical alchemy while pursuing darker manifestations.

HELGA's debut album comes out this Friday, November 24. But the band are now streaming all of Wrapped in Mist on our YouTube channel starting today.  

Listen below.

"'Wrapped in Mist' is the most collaborative HELGA record to date and marks a new chapter for us", the band says. "It's the first album with this lineup and is a product of each of our personalities and influences. We hope you enjoy it half as much as we enjoyed the journey of creating it!"  

A plethora of layers and genres present themselves on Wrapped in Mist, Tracks like "Skogen mumlar" portray the band's progressive folk capabilities, while their more introspective qualities are laid bare on "Alive Again".

"As the vibrant hues of autumn give way to the crisp embrace of winter, the music world eagerly awaits the emergence of a unique musical entity, HELGA," writes Female Fronted Power.

Pre-order: https://redirect.season-of-mist.com/HelgaWrappedInMist
Pre-save: https://orcd.co/wrappedinmistpresave

The album's opening track and lead single, "Skogen mumlar (The Forest Murmurs)", transcends into emotive dreamscapes that will leave your hairs trembling, with Ennio Morricone echoing as the intro's muse.

The band then shifts around playfully with second single "Burden", recounting a tale of relinquishment and its complexity. Introspective and intricate musical passages culminate in a reassuring mélange of emotions, as Helga recognizes having finally found her place in this world.

Songs like "Farväl" & "Som en trumma" reveal HELGA's more abrasive black metal sensibilities. Wrapped in Mist truly transcends the boundaries of genre, lacing ethereal vocal melodies with limitless, captivating instrumentation.

Hailing from the Swedish hinterlands of Dalarna and
Halifax, West Yorkshire, HELGA amalgamated in 2019 in
York, North Yorkshire. United by singer, Helga Gabriel, the
quintet delve into a musical alchemy on their pursuit of
darker manifestations.

“We draw on many different influences from Swedish folk
to progressive metal to post-rock to black metal to pop.
Distilling this into a single style is a challenge.” -Cai S.

Summoning this plethora of layers and genre, HELGA
culminate their premier album Wrapped in Mist into
dirgeful lamentations of mortality and mental health,
punctuated by formidable drumming, spectral strings and
chugging riffs.

The album’s opening track, Skogen mumlar (The Forest
Murmurs), transcends forthwith into emotive dreamscapes
that leave hairs trembling, Ennio Morricone echoing as the
intro’s muse.

But as the journey through Wrapped in
Mist transpires, songs such as Farväl (Farewell) reveal
HELGA’s black metal and darker sensibilities. Bewitching
through this myriad range, the album’s waltzing coda flirts
with a melodic baroque that crescendos with Opeth-esque
climax.

The inception of Wrapped in Mist promises to plunge
HELGA deep into the spotlight of mesmerising live
performances following release. From the hills and forests
of rural dwelling, this is a band destined for a journey worth
following.

The Intemperate Sons Release Official Music Video for Single "Dark Day's Night" via FRAME|WORK/INgrooves

Indie rock band The Intemperate Sons released the title track off the yet to be released, Dark Day’s Night LP (set for early 2024). The track was produced by Amir Derakh and The Intemperate Sons at The Kitchen Recording Studios in Dallas, TX. A brand-new music video for the single was released today, 11/17/2023 to the usual platforms.

The Intemperate Sons get a little darker about their outlook on humanity in this track exploring the underbelly of social media and the effects on society as well as personal relationships. Yet, in the end, it isn’t too late to turn back!

All Intemperate Sons’ tracks are mixed by Amir Derakh in Long Beach, CA. All mastering is done by Mike Marsh Mastering in the U.K.

The Intemperate Sons release all their music through the Frame|Work/INgroovesrecord label at the direction of Amir Derakh and Ryan Shuck. The Intemperate Sons are managed by Denny Sanders at The Label Group.

The Intemperate Sons emerged onto the rock scene in the summer of 2019 in Dallas, TX, to bring their distinct sound to the genre. A deep love for music brought family members Keith Watson (drums), Jake Watson (guitars) and Max Watson (vocals, guitars, keys) together along with close friend Mark Marks, who provides the groove on bass to unite everything together. The band's sound has been described as a 90's alternative style that is obsessed with the 70's.

"Dark Day's Night" can be streamed at:

https://ffm.to/tis-dark-days-night

https://ffm.bio/theintemperatesons

Keith is well acquainted with entertaining massive crowds of concert goers and has played with many successful bands in Dallas, such as Gun Hill, Natural Born Thrillers and Agents of Solace, on top of opening for Lynch Mob, Joe Lynn Turner and Sponge. He is the primary lyricist for the band and has written the music for some of their most successful songs, including “Dust to Dust,” “The Color Within,” and “Unrealized.”

Multi-talented and gifted with the ability to play various instruments, Max is also the lead vocalist of the group. Along with being musically dexterous, he has also collaborated with Keith to write lyrics on the released songs “Going Crazy” and “Way Back When.” In the studio, Max usually surmounts expectations and goes above and beyond to prepare prior to a session with his own vocal harmonies.

Jake is the song architect of the Sons and extremely instrumental in the crafting of the music. His inventive ways of bringing lyrics to life in clever ways are unprecedented and fascinating to see in the studio setting. He is a prolific writer of music as well and is credited with helping create the songs “What’s Done is Done,” “Remission,” “Way Back When” and “Wading in the Gray.” Both Max and he play lead guitar on many of the songs as well. The other members of the band fondly refer to him as the “art director” since he enjoys taking charge in those areas for the group.

Prolific and unifying, Mark is an accomplished bass player and well known in Dallas. He was in the regionally successful band, Haggard, and had opened for Sebastian Bach of Skid Row. His input in song writing has been invaluable to the process of creating captivating melodies.

Despite the pandemic putting a pause on many major events, The Intemperate Sons lived up to their name and let nothing hold them back from making music. Constantly hard at work in the studio, they have collaborated with Amir Derakh (Julien-K, Dead by Sunrise, Orgy, Rough Cutt) and Ryan Shuck (Julien-K, Adema, Dead by Sunrise, Orgy). Both have lent their musical talents to various songs and ultimately have brought the Sons on to their label, Frame|Work. This led the band to also recently join the management roster at The Label Group. Ryan worked with Amir to produce the band’s upcoming track, “Game of Keep Away,”and has had a huge impact on the group. He’s been especially influential on Max’s vocal melodies and delivery. Amir also plays guitar on this latest ballad and has been mixing all of the band’s music as well as performing on multiple songs.

Another notable collaboration has been with Tony Franklin (The Firm, Roy Harper, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Whitesnake), primarily on the first album, The Color Within. He has been a valuable friend of the band and has played bass on some of their best tracks from that album, including “Running Man,” “Dust to Dust” and “The Color Within.”

The Intemperate Sons’ take on alternative rock is a dark and powerful concoction of hard rock mixed with folk and grunge concepts. The band has earned a serious reputation for writing and performing tracks that scratch deep into the backbone of the human experience. There is no shortage of darkness in their writing style, which has a retro vibe with many guitar-driven tracks stacked on top of a groovy rhythm section. The heavier style fits perfectly with the two and three-part vocal harmonies that are a huge part of their overall sound. It has been said that musicians that are related form unique sounds and communicate at a frequency only they can understand. This frequency has become engrained in their songwriting, arrangements, guitar melodies and vocal harmonies. The band has been compared to Alice in Chains, Stone Temple Pilots and even R.E.M.

The Intemperate Sons are:

Max Watson (vocals, backing vocals, guitars, keys, bass)

Jake Watson (guitars, bass and backing vocals)

Keith Watson (drums, backing vocals)

Mark Marks (bass)

BEING AS AN OCEAN Unveil Emotive New Single "Flesh and Bone"

Melodic post-hardcore trailblazers Being As An Ocean have today released their emotionally charged single, "Flesh & Bone", a powerful exploration of the duality between the pursuit of dreams and the yearning for home. Experience the heartrending beauty of "Flesh & Bone" HERE. Watch the official music video below.

Pre-order the band's upcoming album, 'Death Can Wait' (out February 2nd, 2024 via Out Of Line Records) HERE.

Providing further context for "Flesh & Bone", the band shares

"Flesh & Bone seeks to describe the splitting of the soul that happens when one gives themselves to their passions, dreams, and obsessions. It is about the feeling of longing for home while being away, while also acknowledging that too much time spent in comfort is time taken away from the unknown, discovery, and adventure. The song is about missing loved ones from the road: the isolation that can be felt when you are away from your support network, especially when you are emotionally low. When the road has become a part of who you are or has shaped you in significant ways, no matter how much you hold those you love dear or how precious the time spent at home, the road still pulls at you and your spirit still hears its call," the band elucidates, capturing the essence of the new single."

With "Flesh & Bone", Being As An Ocean invites listeners to a profound journey through the tumultuous landscape of an artist's heart. It is an anthem that resonates with the sweet sorrow of parting, and the unshakable hope that beckons with every step away from the familiar.

"Myrath from Tunisia might just be the most underrated band ever. Their new album really excites me – they have something fresh and back it up with a great stage show. They played a tiny stage at Wacken where nobody brings more than guitars and amps and brought a two-truck production. It was amazing!" – Pär Sundström, Sabaton

As the sands of time continued to shape their journey, Myrath's relentless dedication led to the creation of their highly anticipated album Karma, slated for release on February 2 via earMUSIC as limited transparent red LP, black LP and Digipak.

Post Profit Release "Self Defeater" EP + Share "Two Toxic"

Newly signed SHARPTONE RECORDS band POST PROFIT — Matt Jackson [vocals, guitar], Nick Hawner [guitar +vocals], and Zach Hicks [drums + vocals] — released their six-song EP, Self Defeater, today, November 17, via SharpTone Records. Get it here.

The band has shared the visualizer for "Two Toxic." Watch + listen below.

"With 'Two Toxic,' we wanted to do something different and show a more emotional side with what we call an 'anti' love song," the band says. "Lyrically, it touches on the feeling of being in love, but also highlights the negative effects that often come with it.  We put aggressive driving guitars and accents up against gentle delicate moments to resemble that push and pull effect."

The band continues, "We're excited for you all to hear this song and the rest of the EP Self Defeater in its fullness. We've poured our heart, soul, and emotion into it and we hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we did creating it for you. Thank you so much."

Fresh off a spate of dates supporting Nothing More and Dead Poet Society, Post Profit are currently wrapping up a co-headline tour with Silly Goose, with much more touring planned for 2024. All remaining dates with Silly Goose are below. Get tickets here.

Stay tuned for much more from Post Profit in 2024.

POST PROFIT ON TOUR:
WITH SILLY GOOSE:
11/18 —  New Orleans, LA — Parish @ House of Blues
11/20 —  Nashville, TN — The End

ABOUT POST PROFIT
Some would say Post Profit have been waiting for this moment since the cradle, with each member being introduced to musical instruments between the ages of 2 to 6. 

Zach and Matt forged a friendship as toddlers ever since their moms became best friends from church in Longview, TX. Nick would later learn of Matt's vocal prowess through the high school intercom. "Matt's father was the high school principal," explains Nick. "And he'd have Matt on there in the mornings singing about refraining from drugs and alcohol and striving for good school attendance." 

Over the next few years, the trio would really get to know each other from attending and performing at local shows. Nick and Zach especially hit it off and quickly became inseparable, spending much of their time listening to music, eager to put their own band together. Meanwhile, Matt was sinking his teeth into a Dallas based metalcore band called Far From Earth.
 
During early 2017, Matt started hosting open jams every Sunday at a smoky East Texas dive bar and one night asked Zach to join on drums. Zach dragged his new friend Nick along on guitar and the trio quickly formed a strong musical bond. They would soon start slipping originals into their covers sets and after months of unrelenting practices and bar jams they booked their first show at a Halloween party in Tyler, TX.
 
With the experience of countless gigs across the South, Post Profit soon gained a reputation for their commanding and impactful live performance, including powerful 2021 and 2022 performances at Welcome To Rockville in Daytona, FL. Rallying around influences such as Deftones, Incubus, Failure, and Quicksand, the band refined their original songs and sound into what would become their 2022 debut self-produced album When You Think It's Right It's Always Wrong.  The release garnered over a million cumulative streams independently, and the success of their single "Smother" grabbed the attention of SharpTone Records, eventually landing them a deal.

About CELESTE:

Having played more than 500 shows around the world, including appearances at several prestigious extreme music festivals, theaters and venues (Hellfest, Roskilde, Copenhell, SummerBreeze, Brutal Assault, Roadburn, Psycho Las Vegas...), with one EP and six albums under their belt, CELESTE have succeeded in creating their own musical atmosphere and are today considered to be one of the most important bands of the "French Avant-Garde Black-Metal" scene.

For 15 years, this French metal band has crafted a hybrid sound that defies easy categorization but remains unmistakable. By skillfully blending elements of black metal, post-metal, and hardcore, CELESTE has created a singular and immersive musical experience, characterized by its violence, oppressiveness, and darkness.

While CELESTE is renowned for their musical prowess, their live shows are equally famous for their apocalyptic and suffocating experiences. Immersed in complete darkness and thick smoke, the audience relies on strobe flashes and the red beams of the musicians' headlamps for guidance.

"This band has become one of the defining groups of their generation. Cult favorites for a notoriously picky group of fans, it's easy to see why CELESTE are viewed as some of the best out there right now" METAL INJECTION

BAY AREA THRASH LEGENDS, SADUS, RELEASE FIRST ALBUM IN 17 YEARS, THE SHADOW INSIDE

After nearly two decades, the wait is over! East Bay thrash metal legends SADUS have returned with a massively anticipated new album, The Shadow Inside, out now from Nuclear Blast Records. It’s been 17 long years since the release of their last full-length, Out For Blood (2006), and the band sounds just as viciously vital as the day they first lit up audiences almost 40 years ago!

Recorded with Juan Urteaga (EXODUS, TESTAMENT, MACHINE HEAD) at Trident Studios, The Shadow Inside is a merciless masterclass of thrash with blistering tracks like ‘Scorched And Burnt,’ ‘It’s The Sickness’ and ‘Ride The Knife,” that further cement the band’s metal legacy.

Today, SADUS aims attention towards another standout track, ‘Anarchy,’ which is accompanied by the brutal video below.

Commenting on the song, lead vocalist/guitarist Darren Travis states:

“In a world of confusion, people will rise to Anarchy.. there’s no turning back..!”

Stream/Purchase The Shadow Inside: https://bfan.link/tsisadus.ema  

‘Anarchy’ Music Video:

Featuring ominous artwork by accomplished artist Travis Smith (FLESHGOD APOCALPYSE, OPETH), The Shadow Inside, is a contemporary thrash classic with colossal, groove-laden riffs at break-neck rhythm and blistering solos. It’s the record fans have been waiting desperately for and one of the year’s most crucial metal albums.

Commenting on the record’s impending release, Darren Travis says:

“I am giddy with excitement for this album to be unleashed upon the world. With the help of the entire Nuclear Blast team, we will bestow a hugely anticipated release of The Shadow Inside!!  

THANK YOU for your interest in our little band for all these years. I hope you will find the same release of excitement that WE DO!! The love of METAL is the only reason for SADUS!! Thank you ALL for the undying SUPPORT!!!! Fucking SADUS!!”

About SADUS:

It has been sixteen long years since the monstrous sound of SADUS last bestowed a new record upon the world, but the time has finally arrived. This November, Nuclear Blast Records proudly presents the triumphant return of the unconquerable SADUS with their sixth full-length studio album, titled The Shadow Inside.

Adorned with the compelling artwork of Travis Smith, the album cover depicts an all-consuming demon of the cosmos fiercely enveloping a tortured soul beneath, perfectly encapsulating the vision and duality that the songs on this record deliver. Founder and drummer Jon Allen shares his excitement about working with Travis once again, reminiscing about their collaboration on Elements of Anger. He points out that several tracks on the new album, such as ‘The Devil In Me’ and ‘The Shadow Inside,’ revolve around the idea of an internal entity constantly pushing us. At times, one might find themselves at the edge of reason, attributing their actions to the shadow within, an external force they blame for their choices. While not a concept album per-se, every song deals with life decisions and the importance of taking responsibility for one's actions to unlock the best life has to offer. The track ‘The Shadow Inside’ boasts a heavier and slower tone, with a touch of classic, gut-wrenching grind, creating a fitting climax to the album.

A formidable darkness flows through tracks like ‘Anarchy’. Evidently influenced by the tumultuous post-Covid times of mass hysteria, looting, and general loss of control, the melody reflects this chaotic environment. Allen describes the track as “more straightforward and in-your-face, hitting listeners right in the gut. ”Despite the intensity, SADUS manages to retain their signature death/thrash blend, staying true to their old-school roots. The aggression remains palpable, allowing their music to speak for itself with raw, unapologetic power.

‘Scorched and Burnt’ follows suit, with its steady beat and chaotic vocals seamlessly intertwining with blistering guitar work. The track gradually transitions into an impassioned melody, igniting a fiery explosion as the song nears its conclusion. Although inspired by the literal wildfires that plagued California during its creation, ‘Scorched and Burnt’ delves deeper into the idea that individuals often feel like someone or something is constantly out to get them. Yet, in the end, the song urges unity, recognizing that every action, even in chaos, ripples through the lives of others.

The process of creating The Shadow Inside was unhurried and unencumbered by unnecessary roadblocks. SADUS allowed their creativity to flow naturally, collecting riffs and writing together in person.The band took their time, nurturing and developing their musical ideas until they evolved into the powerful tracks we hear today. Allen emphasizes that their drama-free and family-oriented approach to making music is one of the reasons their sound speaks so powerfully to their fans. Collaborating with Juan Urteaga of Trident Studios added another layer of refinement to the album, as his expertise in death metal played a vital role in shaping its overall sound.

All that being said, SADUS is not a band that simply stands apart from the crowd for the sake of being different. They stand tall, unswayed by mass hysteria and media influences, choosing to make their own decisions and encourage others to do the same. In a world filled with disinformation and false flags, they emphasize the importance of being smart, using common sense, thinking for ourselves, and remaining aware of our surroundings.

As November approaches, the anticipation for The Shadow Inside is sure to grow. With their uncompromising vision, SADUS continues to stand as a beacon of authenticity and integrity within the heavy metal community, forever forging their path in the ever-evolving landscape of music.

Wind Walkers Release Highly Anticipated Album "What If I Break?" & Drop New Video For "The Overlook"

Wind Walkers, the genre-defying visionaries, are thrilled to announce the release of their groundbreaking album "What If I Break?". Continuing to break boundaries and forge their own path in the alternative music scene, Wind Walkers have swiftly gained acclaim, with "What If I Break?" emerging as one of the standout albums of the year. Fans can stream the recent release HERE.

The album release is accompanied by the release of their latest single "The Overlook". With the incendiary new single, Wind Walkers unleash a sonic inferno through its fiery composition that encapsulates the band's artistic fervor. Fans can watch "The Overlook" below.

Speaking on today's single release, vocalist Trevor Borg shares:

"This song is a bit different than the others on the album in the sense that I didn’t necessarily write the lyrics from personal experience. I’ve always wanted to challenge myself and write a song about a story I loved, and if the name isn’t a dead give away, I wrote this song about my favorite novel “The Shining”. The overlook is about the character Jack and his struggles to be a better version of himself and provide for his family. All while facing consequences of past mistakes as well as battling his vices, and literal possession from spirits in a haunted hotel."

Lifting the curtain behind the record, Trevor continues:

"Lyrically, What if I Break is a very introspective album. I wrote about very real experiences in my life these past few years. This album touches on love and death, connections with others as well as connections with myself. And the pressures that I felt trying to maintain those connections while chasing a dream I’ve had since childhood. These songs are on the verge of being uncomfortably honest, and I couldn’t imagine doing it any other way."

Authenticity is the heartbeat of "What If I Break?", as it dives into the depths of human experience, navigating themes of love, loss, and self-discovery. Seamlessly blending powerful instrumentals with hauntingly honest vocals, each track unfolds as a compelling narrative that showcases a spectrum of raw emotions and cathartic expression. With this latest release, Wind Walkers have made their triumphant return, claiming their status as dynamic trailblazers.

"What If I Break?", produced by the highly regarded Nick Matzkows (known for his work with Attack Attack, Until I Wake, Conquer Divide) and revered Jon Eberhard (I Prevail, Skillet, The Ghost Inside), promises to redefine the boundaries of post-hardcore and alternative metal. With their daring approach, Wind Walkers effortlessly blend the commanding force of modern metal with the irresistible charisma of pop, crafting a sound that is both emotionally charged and undeniably catchy. Be sure to stay tuned for more Wind Walkers news coming soon.

ABOUT WIND WALKERS

Hailing from the vibrant music scene of central Massachusetts, Wind Walkers are leading in redefining the very essence of post-hardcore and alternative metal.

In their innovative approach, they fearlessly combine the relentless power of modern metal with the irresistible allure of pop, creating a sound that is as thought-provoking as it is infectious. Their latest singles, "Dead Talk," and “Bodybag” are a glimpse into the boundless creativity that lies within them, a mere taste of their forthcoming album, “What If I Break?” (set for release on November 17), promises to deliver.

Alongside the instrumental expertise of Timothy Comeau and Neil Comeau on guitar, Craig Martin on bass, and Ethan Cheesman on drums, the pivotal moment of their evolution came with the addition of vocalist Trevor Borg. With his exceptional vocal prowess and captivating stage presence, he's added a new layer of depth and intensity to their already established sound. 

As they continue to evolve and redefine their craft, their unwavering commitment to explore new musical realms sets Wind Walkers apart in the industry. Their music showcases an unapologetic approach to authenticity, an invitation to embrace the unexpected and challenge the status quo. 

With "What If I Break?" on the horizon, Wind Walkers is set to make a resounding statement in their respective genre. This forthcoming album promises to be a tour de force, pushing the boundaries of their genre even further and solidifying their place as innovators and trailblazers in the alternative music scene.

Chaotic Hardcore Newcomers APOSTLE Unleash Vicious New Song + Video, "Pain"

Blackened atmospheric chaotic hardcore newcomers APOSTLE are now unleashing their vicious new single, "Pain," along with a lyric video! The single is taken from the band's upcoming EP, 'Liminal,' which is due on December 15 via Terminus Hate City Records! The clip can be found below.

The band comments, "'Pain' was the first track we began working on when we set out to write what would become 'Liminal.' As with every track on this release, they were all written in our rehearsal space, during rehearsal - making the writing process one of total collaboration and the environment as conducive for organic flow states of creativity. We wanted these songs to be straightforward in their arrangements and delivery and we didn’t want to fixate, overindulge or totally run parts into the ground. Rather, we wanted the movements to be quick and intentional, keeping things dynamic and driving."

Pre-orders are now live for 'Liminal' HERE.

In addition, APOSTLE will be performing two hometown shows before the end of the year. The full run is as follows:

Upcoming Apostle U.S. Dates:

11/17: Atlanta, GA @ Bogg’s Social and Supply (JabroniFest)

12/09: Atlanta, GA @ 529

Apostle's vicious new offering is fueled by the collective prowess of guitarist and vocalist Murice White, bassist Michael Thomas, and drummer Evan Price. Apostle breaks new ground with 'Liminal,' citing many diverse influences, and crafting a sonic landscape that defies categorization.

Murice White's guitar work is a fierce force, delivering textured riffs that traverse the extremes of aggression and beauty, while his seething vocals add a visceral layer to the record's tapestry. Michael Thomas's groove-laden low end provides a solid backbone, grounding the compositions in a rhythmic foundation that is both formidable and infectious. Evan Price's propulsive batterie propels the music forward, adding a kinetic energy that keeps the violent angst front and center.

From the unrelenting chaos of grindcore to the ethereal tremolos of atmospheric black metal, 'Liminal' embarks on an audacious exploration of the outer reaches of metal's vast spectrum. The warm undertones of shoegaze interlace with a robust foundation of melodic hardcore, providing a dynamic and immersive experience that transcends the boundaries of conventional metal. While hosting audible beauty, there is deep and profound pain throughout the record.
