TEMIC Release Live Version of "Falling Away"

Two years ago, prog metal was introduced to its newest, most ambitious and adrenaline-fueled supergroup when TEMIC burst onto the international scene. "Falls somewhere between Leprous, Sleep Token, Haken, Dream Theater and Pain of Salvation", Mike Portnoy says about this new band of proven players, which includes current and former members of Devin Townsend, the Neal Morse Band, SHINING and Maraton.    

Now, after landing on year-end lists with their debut album Terror Management Theory, TEMIC are embarking on their first-ever European tour.

"We're beyond excited to bring our music to cities across Europe this month during The Theory of Dreams Tour", the band says. "This is our first tour together as TEMIC and we will perform all of the songs off Terror Management Theory every night!"

As they gear up for this 11 date run with Norway's progressive metal dream chasers Rendezvous Point, today, TEMIC are giving fans everywhere another glimpse of what they can expect this year when the band hits not only Europe but the high seas of the Carribean and ProgPower Fest USA.  

Watch TEMIC perform their smash hit "Falling Away" live at last year's Midsummer Prog Festival Below.

TEMIC 2025 North American Dates
April 4–9 -  Miami & Carribean @ Cruise to the Edge [TICKETS]

September 3–6 - Atlanta, GA @ ProgPower USA [TICKETS]

Even when dialed down to little more than brittle, acoustic plucking, "Falling Away" is uplifted by the full range of TEMIC's super powers. Eric Gillette (Neal Morse Band) alternates between beefy distortion and warped, nimble riffing while newest member Miguel Pereira (Withem, Big City) hammers down a hard bass groove. Diego Tejeida (Devin Townsend, Mike Portnoy's Shattered Fortress, ex-Haken) fires off an interstellar keyboard solo before Simen Sandnes (SHINING, Arkentype) fills the bridge with booming finesse.
 

"I will give in to the eternal night", sings Fredrik Klemp (Maraton, 22). The way his falsetto lightly shatters against the gentle harmonies of "Falling Away", it’s like the band are all orbiting one another, the way only true superstars can.

“‘Falling Away’ is one of our favorite tracks from Terror Management Theory” says TEMIC. “The song embodies all the core elements we envisioned for this band: powerful lyrics and catchy vocal melodies at the forefront, a constant pulse underneath, dynamic and rich instrumentation all around, and electronic-influenced sounds adorning the edges”.

Terror Management Theoryis out now on Season of Mist.

FACE YOURSELF Announce New EP 'Martyr' + Drop New Track & Official Music Video For "Predatory"

Transcontinental deathcore collective, Face Yourself have announced their brand new EP ‘Martyr,’ today. The five track offering is set for release on April 18th via Sumerian Records and raises the modern deathcore bar to an unprecedented level. Punctuating today's news is their blistering new single "Predatory" which offers a brutal yet haunting exploration of trust and betrayal that dives deep into the dark undercurrents of vulnerability and self-preservation.

"Predatory" is out now and can be streamed HERE, the accompanying music video - directed by Face Yourself drummer, Eric DiCarlo - can be viewed below and the 'Martyr' EP can be pre-ordered HERE.

Speaking on their lates single and upcoming EP, Face Yourself shares:

"Face Yourself is proud to release our newest single "Predatory", alongside the announcement of our new EP "Martyr" via Sumerian Records. "Predatory" is based on a modern story with some metaphoric images. It's about going to a dance with a stranger and quickly finding yourself in a dangerous situation. 'Martyr' explores struggles through difficult mental health battles. The lyrical content on the EP is based on vulnerability, and confronting your own demons. The record flirts between standing up for yourself, but also getting back to this dark place, as no one has a perfect linear mental health. Sometimes it takes a few trials to heal old wounds.

Following the enormous success of their previous single "Sideration," which showcased the band’s ability to blend sheer aggression with lyrical vulnerability, the Martyr EPsees Face Yourself pushing even further into the unusual combination of emotionally vulnerable topics with ferociously brutal musicality. The EP reflects the cyclical nature of mental health struggles—balancing moments of empowerment with the dark pull of self-doubt.

Working with renowned producer Joey Sturgis (Asking Alexandria, Of Mice & Men, The Devil Wears Prada), Face Yourself have crafted an EP that musically blends bone-crushing breakdowns with hauntingly melodic interludes, reflecting the lyrical themes that flicker over the fragile line between strength and vulnerability. Pre-order bundles are available now HERE. 

ABOUT FACE YOURSELF

A transcontinental Deathcore phenomenon, Face Yourself has redefined what it means to blend modern heaviness with old-school roots. Featuring members from New York, New Jersey, Colorado, and France, their unique sound is as diverse as their origins. Vocalist Yasmine Liverneaux brings her French influence and socially conscious themes into the mix, setting the band apart with an intensity and depth that’s rarely seen in the genre.

With their Myspace-era throwback riffs, drop-tuned breakdowns, and sheer relentlessness, Face Yourself have become a staple of the modern Deathcore era. Their ability to connect with fans worldwide and their tireless drive have made them a force to be reckoned with—and they’ve only just begun.

Epica Drop Video for "T.I.M.E."

Symphonic metal frontrunners EPICA return with a spellbinding third single off their upcoming album, Aspiral, which will see the light of day on April 11. 

“T.I.M.E.” is a track that takes listeners on a journey through self-discovery, as the title stands for "Transformation, Integration, Metamorphosis and Evolution" and delves into the art of dying — more specifically, the death of the ego, and the necessary steps one must take to achieve personal and spiritual growth.

Bringing this vision to life is the new music video created by Dave Letelier, which captures the song's haunting aesthetic.

Watch the video below:

Pre-order or pre-save Aspiral here.

In support of their new album, EPICA announced multiple tours worldwide. The cycle will kick off in Paris on April 12 at a sold-out EPICA experience before the band heads to North America for three showcase appearances and continuing with a Mexican tour.

Tickets, VIP upgrades, and tour info are available here.

Drowning Pool Release Official Lyric Video for "Bodies"; European Tour Dates Supporting Godsmack! ​

Drowning Pool, the legendary band known for their high-octane performances and chart-topping hits, is celebrating the enduring legacy of their iconic 2001 single, “Bodies,” with the release of an official lyric video. The track, from the band's debut album Sinner, is featured in the trailer for the upcoming season of the Paramount+ thriller drama series Yellowjackets.

"Bodies" also made it's way on to the American Idol stage as contestant Kobyn Melton performed Drowning Pool’s “Bodies” with Carrie Underwood offering support.

Released on June 5, 2001, Sinner went platinum the same year, and “Bodies” remains one of the band's most popular tracks. As the album approaches its 25th anniversary, Drowning Pool is continuing to maintain their place in rock history with an exciting lineup of new releases and live shows.

 “Bodies” faced misinterpretations and controversy, with its lyrics taken out of context. Nevertheless, their music has persisted, embraced by the very culture that birthed it. “Bodies” remains an enduring anthem, not just for Drowning Pool but for metal culture as a whole. Its legacy lives on, inspiring new generations of fans. Guitarist C.J. Pierce captures the essence of their dedication: “I’d play ‘Bodies’ five times a night if people really wanted it that bad!” The song’s timeless appeal transcends generations, resonating with both the seasoned and the fresh-faced.

In addition to the lyric video release, Drowning Pool is hitting the road in support of Godsmack for their Spring 2025 European tour. The tour will kick off on March 22, 2025, at Arena Sofia in Sofia, Bulgaria. Fans attending the shows will have the exclusive opportunity to meet the band through VIP meet and greet packages available for this run.

Drowning Pool, a name etched in the score of modern rock history, roars back into the spotlight with thunderous energy and uncompromising power. The band’s unmistakable sound, synonymous with raw energy and unapologetic attitude, returns to captivate audiences once again.

Known for their iconic anthem “Bodies,” Drowning Pool needs no introduction. This breakout single propelled them to international recognition, leaving an indelible mark on the nu metal landscape. The song’s relentless energy and defiant spirit resonated with a generation, becoming an anthem for moshers, metalheads, and fans of electrifying live performances.

Ryan McCombs played a pivotal role in the band’s evolution, joining their ranks in the aftermath of the tragic loss of beloved frontman Dave Williams. His powerful vocals and charismatic stage presence breathed new life into Drowning Pool, solidifying their status as metal titans. Songs like “37 Stitches,” “Feel Like I Do,” and “Turn So Cold” catapulted them to new heights, earning them a place among the genre’s heavyweights.

Yet, Drowning Pool’s story is not just about music; it’s a testament to enduring friendships and a shared passion for their craft. Ryan’s return to the band in 2023 marks a reunion of kindred spirits, a return to the roots of their musical journey. As he succinctly puts it, “Just being back in the same room together after so many years… was a quick reminder as to why I considered them to be my best friends in the business back in the day.”

Drowning Pool’s return is a testament to the enduring power of their music, a reminder that their unapologetic spirit continues to strike chords with audiences worldwide. The band experienced a triumphant resurgence in 2023 and with new music on the horizon, a 2024/25 calendar proving that the demand for the band isn’t about to slow down.., Drowning Pool has a white knuckle grip on their present and future with no plans to slow down.

As Chase Rice kicks off a run of shows in Australia this month, the Diamond-certified songwriter announces 24 new dates expanding the Go Down Singin’ International Tour 2025 through the fall. Tickets to most shows are on sale now, with tickets to new dates available this Friday, March 14 at 10 a.m. local time via ChaseRice.com.

The international run highlights Rice’s widely celebrated artistic evolution in a live setting. As Billboard declares, “his new music leans toward rootsier, raw-rock driven sounds, trading party anthems for introspective lyrical themes,” while “his voice conveys a crackling warmth of self-reflection and an easy-going comfortableness with his new sound.” Rolling Stone highlights the album as “an excellent collection of poignant, often anthemic country,” noting that it finds Rice “trying to do what creative people are supposed to: grow and change,” while Cowboys & Indians proclaims that “maturity and clarity are the reality on Chase Rice's new album…what is sure to be one of 2024’s most well-received country albums of the year.”
 
Rice further showcased this new direction with surprise follow-up project Fireside Sessions, which features all 25 songs from both Go Down Singin’ and prior album I Hate Cowboys & All Dogs Go To Hell as live, single-take versions with cowriters including Lori McKenna, Jackson Dean, Hunter Phelps, Randy Montana and more as featured artists. 
 
His latest offering, the brand-new Live From Chief’s EP released this past Friday, March 7 as a surprise for fans, includes Rice’s takes on two songs from his heroes – Eric Church’s “Carolina” and George Strait’s “I Can Still Make Cheyenne” – as well as the previously unreleased original, “Cowboy Goodbye.” Listen HERE.

About Chase Rice
With more than 2.6 million albums sold and over 2.8 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 independent album Go Down Singin’ available everywhere now as the follow-up to the critically acclaimed I Hate Cowboys & All Dogs Go To Hell, and both brought together on the songwriter-forward Fireside Sessions, Rice’s sound continues to evolve to reflect the realities of his life; from emotional reckoning to an admiration of the American West. The new music serves as a follow up to his three-part project, The Album, which featured his latest Platinum-certified No. 1 hit, “Drinkin’ Beer. Talkin’ God. Amen.” and the 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 served as direct support on Dierks Bentley’s 2024 Gravel & Gold Tour and consistently sells out venues on his own headlining tours across the U.S. and beyond, with the Go Down Singin’ International Tour underway now.

Kenny Chesney's Sandbar @ Sphere: Amps the Glory, Adds DJ Brandi Cyrus

With no tour or traditional shows this summer, high-impact performer Kenny Chesney wanted to make sure No Shoes Nation got to have their show and another dimension, too. As the first country artist to play the groundbreaking Sphere in Las Vegas, which features a 160,000 square foot screen that wraps up, over and around the audience and features 4D technology, the East Tennessee songwriter/superstar didn’t want to lose the direct contact that marks his stadium shows.
 
“I know this is a whole other way to play live,” says the man known for breaking ground in American music. “But that doesn’t mean we don’t feed like vampires off that energy down front. Everything the people in the Sandbar give us, we turn right around and put into the music. There’s a connection there that’s unlike any other. And when we look down, see everybody singing along, rocking out or dancing, it drives us to another level.”

To that end, Chesney’s worked to create a Sandbar experience at his 15-date Vegas residency that matches the moment. For those fans who know the best fun happens close to the stage, this year won’t be any different. With only a headlining set to stand through, he’s tapped emerging sensation Brandi Cyrus (known for her remix of Lainey Wilson’s hit “Wildflowers and Wild Horses” plus sets at major global events including Stagecoach, Lollapalooza, Hangout Festival and Electric Forest) to create a unique DJ experience to hype up the crowd – and have No Shoes Nation dancing from the beginning of the night.
 
With 167,000 individual speakers, which can be dialed in to each section with dazzling specificity, Cyrus’ unique genre-blending skills will have fans riding the vibe and releasing endorphins through the music, taking the energy to another dimension. Chesney offers, “I wanted to make it about music, but I didn’t just want to throw a band up there. With the space on the floor – no chairs, no sun beating down – what could we do to transform what we do somewhere else? What could be better than a DJ to get the dancing started early?”
 
Known for exhaustive live shows that deliver the euphoria that results from embracing the world and living life completely, Chesney saw an opportunity to create a new dynamic in his live shows. Not only will he be pulling from previously un-played songs, rare favorites and myriad classics for the set list, he’s taken the opportunity of creating completely new visuals to really consider the moments and emotions that each of these songs contain. 
 
More than even all unseen visuals, there’s a real investment in which songs, why and how they are going to be delivered. “And we’re going to leave room in each show to create a couple special moments that will be unique to that night. Maybe it’s a surprise guest, a song we will only play that specific night, but I’ve been blessed with an amazing group of friends, songs and players, so why not make each night something really individual for No Shoes Nation?”

The only country artist in Billboard’s Top 10 Touring Acts of the Last 25 Years for the last 15, Chesney remains committed to creating a space for people to come together in community, fun and letting go of everything that brings you down. With Brandi Cyrus and a three hour, no stop Sandbar experience beginning May 22 at Sphere, No Shoes Nation can get their 2025 summer started with 15 singular shows designed to make Chesney’s world without boundaries an even more engaged space.

Limited tickets remain for the Sphere residency at KennyChesney.com with official VIP Concert & Hotel Packages available via KennyChesney.Vibee.com. Kenny Chesney Live at Sphere in Las Vegas is presented by Blue Chair Bay® Rum.

JELLY ROLL’S “LIAR” DOMINATES THE BILLBOARD COUNTRY AIRPLAY CHART FOR FOURTH-STRAIGHT WEEK

Award-winning, multi-genre phenomenon Jelly Roll scores his seventh #1 single with “Liar” on country radio (ninth career #1 overall). Solidifying the top spot on the Billboard Country Airplay chart for an entire month, the fiery single is the 4x Grammy nominee’s second time to dominate both charts with an emotively vocal track from his sophomore country album, Beautifully Broken. Listen HERE.

With the first being the striking “I Am Not Okay,” Beautifully Broken debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart (all-genre). Cementing its place as one of the “Best Albums of 2024,” Billboard championed the “inmate to icon” (GQ)  for “changing the contours of what great country music can be.” 

‘Liar’ boldly confronts addiction and materialism’s emptiness, with Jelly Roll‘s raw honesty on full display and his vulnerability shining through as he tackles the heavy themes head-on.” - Billboard

“This man is going from strength to strength. This pulse-quickening country-rocker is brilliantly produced with pounding rhythm, stuttering guitar and inspirational choir. But the star attraction here is a stunning vocal performance, full of fire, fury and passion.” - MusicRow 

Most recently, the “Outlaw Superstar” (GQ) was one of the iconic entertainers who performed for Saturday Night Live’s 50th Anniversary concert,  SNL50, live from Radio City. Honoring the great Johnny Cash, Jelly performed a medley of his hits as well as collaborated with Snoop Dogg. In addition to his announcement as an upcoming Artist in Residence mentor on American Idol and headlining run during 2025’s Stagecoach Festival, Jelly is also set to be a part of NBC’s Opry 100 special, airing live from the Grand Ole Opry on March 19.

ABOUT JELLY ROLL:
Award-winning, GRAMMY® nominated Nashville native singer/songwriter Jelly Roll (Jason DeFord) bowed at #1 on the Billboard 200 All Genre Chart with his acclaimed 2024 album, Beautifully Broken—which also earned the highest critical praise of his career so far from Rolling Stone, Billboard, Associated Press, NPR, and more. The release concluded his most successful year yet and followed his sold out Beautifully Broken Tour in arenas nationwide.

Just a year earlier, Jelly debuted Top 3 on the Billboard 200 All Genre Chart and #2 on the Top Country Album charts with his debut Country Album, Whitsitt Chapel (released June 2nd, 2023) - earning the biggest Country debut album in Billboard Consumption Chart history. Following his sweep at the 2023 CMT Music Awards, where he earned three awards to become the most awarded artist of the night, the Billboard Country Power List Cover star and “country’s ‘most authentic’ new artist” (The New Yorker) received Billboard’s 2023 Breakthrough Award and the People’s Choice Award for Male Country Artist of the Year. Nominated for Best New Artist and Best Duo/Group Performance for “Save Me (with Lainey Wilson)” at the 2024 GRAMMY Awards, along with eight genre-spanning nominations at the 2024 iHeartRadio Awards and a win for Best New Country and Pop artist wins, Jelly is one of three artists alongside Morgan Wallen and Luke Combs to have scored three Country Airplay #1s in 2023 and the first to do it with his first three singles. “One of Nashville’s fastest rising stars” (The New York Times), he has earned seven consecutive #1s to date at Country radio - nine total, with “Liar” (country/rock radio), “I Am Not Okay,” “Chevrolet” - Dustin Lynch feat. Jelly Roll, “Halfway To Hell,” “Save Me,” “Need A Favor,” “Son of A Sinner” and “Dead Man Walking”(rock radio). A 4X winner at the 2023 People’s Choice Country Awards and the most nominated male at the 2023 CMA Awards, with five total nominations capturing his first CMA Award for New Artist of the Year, Jelly continues to break boundaries. His #1 hit single “Save Me” — a confessional, vulnerable expression of self-doubt— set the stage for his new season of life and took him to new heights including a Platinum certification from the RIAA on the heels of his 28-week reign at #1 on Billboard’s Emerging Artists chart. “Save Me” earned Jelly his first ACM win for Music Event of the year. 

Not just an artist but a humanitarian, Jelly continues to resonate with fans on a global scale, while racking up numerous milestones - from playing his sold-out hometown show for 18,000 fans at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena to donating a recording studio at the juvenile detention center he served in as a teen, to the release of his record-breaking documentary by ABC News, “Save Me” - the most watched music documentary on the platform - to his visits with rehab centers and those incarcerated across the US. Featured by Nightline, GMA, GMA3, The New York Times, LA Times, The Tennessean, Billboard, Variety, American Songwriter, CMT and more, his self-built, unconventional industry rise and unique fan connection has garnered praise from numerous outlets, with Variety noting, “for everyone who’s facing the same struggles, Jelly Roll is their Springsteen,” and American Songwriter echoing, “with a string of accolades and an extremely dedicated following, Jelly Roll has emerged as a force to be reckoned with in the music industry.”

JOHN 5 Announces Opening Of Exclusive KNIGHTS IN SATAN’S SERVICE MUSEUM of KISS Memorabilia In Los Angeles, California May 2025; Tickets On Sale Now

Before he ever became a guitar virtuoso and toured the world with the likes of Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie, Rob Halford and – currently – Mötley Crüe, John 5 was just a kid growing up near Detroit Rock City obsessed with KISS. That fascination turned into a lifelong journey of collecting anything and everything from the Starchild, the Demon, the Spaceman and the Catman.  

In May 2025, John 5 will open up his personal collection for the first time ever to fellow KISS fans around the world with his brand-new Knights In Satan Service Museum of KISS Memorabilia in Los Angeles, California. Guided tours will be open to the public for one month only (with a possible expansion). Current dates available are May 5-9, May 12-16, May 19-23 and May 27-30. Each will be led by John 5 himself who will provide tons of rich detail and answer any questions. 

Tickets are on sale now at John5Store.com

“In June 1977, when I was 7-years-old, my mom took me to Sears where I saw a record store display for KISS’ album Love Gun. I loved monsters and music and begged my mom for the record. Hearing it for the first time was a total epiphany for me. And any time a birthday or Christmas rolled around, I got a new KISS poster or merch. Collecting became a huge part of my life. It’s also helped me connect with the world as I’ve found pieces from Argentina to Chile, Taiwan to Japan,” explains John 5. The idea began when he started archiving everything on Instagram but knew it was time to expand. “With KISS not touring anymore, the only real place to see this collection and go down memory lane is to come to the museum in Los Angeles. Hang out with me, I’ll answer questions, we’ll talk and I’ll tell stories.” 

John 5’s collection spans 2,500-plus pieces encompassing unique merch and one-of-a-kind collectibles from the gilded era of KISS, 1973-1983, including one of the only known pairs of Gene Simmons’ Destroyer Boots from 1976 and his first outfit from 1974 as well as banners from the band’s appearance at Woodfield Mall, outside Chicago, in 1974 for the "National KISS-Off" kissing contest. 

“If it was me and someone had this I would love it,” says John 5. 

See a preview of the Knights In Satan Service Museum collection Below:

ABOUT JOHN 5:

For over 30 years, JOHN 5 has been one of the most in-demand guitar players on the planet. As well as being a songwriter/guitarist for hire, JOHN 5 has shared the stage as axe-man for Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson and Rob Halford. He has also worked with an impressive array of names, from all walks of music, including KD Lang, Rod Stewart, David Lee Roth, Alice Cooper, Tina Guo, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Meatloaf, Dolly Parton, and Ricky Martin. In October 2022, it was announced that JOHN 5 would be joining Mötley Crüe as their guitarist following the announcement that Mick Mars would be retiring. JOHN 5 continues to tour with Mötley Crüe on their 2024 world tour. To call JOHN 5 a shredder does not do him justice. There’s little he can’t put his hand to.

LA pop outfit NoVanGogh shares inspiring 'You're Right There' single with Van Gogh-inspired video

The Los Angeles-based music production team NoVanGogh presents thei single 'You're Right There', a heartfelt pop anthem that serves as a beacon of reassurance, complemented by a new animated Van Gogh-inspired video.

NoVanGogh was conceived by songwriter-producers Doug Sparks and Chris Hastingsas a way to release pop-infused music that straddles diverse styles of music, utilizing the finest musical talent that LA has to offer.

'You’re Right There' itself is an uplifting collaboration between Doug Sparks and co-writer Robin Goodchild, immersed in the reassurance of an ideal romantic relationship. Here, Robin (vocals and guitar) is accompanied by Lydia Salnikova (vocals), Brant Cole(drums), Andrew Gold (bass), W.V. Malpede (piano) and Melanie Bomar (percussion).

“You’re Right There is a throwback the more joyful songs people may have heard in the 70s or even in the 90s. We choose to have the song performed as a duet between Robin and Lydia, ultimately creating a more intimate vibe," says Doug Sparks.

"We wanted to make a video that blend the 'NoVanGogh' theme with the subject behind the song.  We have Van Gogh playing guitar and as part of a romantic couple. And modern day couples.  We feel this video expresses the story of the song and the NoVanGogh concept".

Creators of sublime pop, NoVanGogh’s sound is highlighted by a continuous morphing of styles and genres producing sounds worthy of your attention. Their artistry shines through in a tapestry of genres, making for a listening experience that rewards your attention.

In a world often filled with uncertainty, 'You're Right There' captures the essence of a relationship built on steadfast support, trust and comfort with one another. The track's lyrics, combined with NoVanGogh's catchy melodic style, offer an emotionally resonant experience for the listener - a testament to the transformative power of genuine connection.

Exploring the feeling of finding solace and strength in another person, and the relief that comes with knowing you're never truly alone, here NoVanGogh celebrates the freedom and joy found in a love that liberates, ultimately conveying a powerful message of hope and emotional security.

'You're Right There' is out now everywhere digitally, including Spotify, Apple Music and Bandcamp.

SICK N' BEAUTIFUL Share New Single "Hate Manifesto" + Music Video

Today, Italian metallers SICK N' BEAUTIFUL are excited to share their new single and official video, “Hate Manifesto”, taken from their highly anticipated new studio album 'Horror Vacui', set for release on April 18th, 2025 via BLKIIBLK.

SICK N' BEAUTIFUL describes the track as:

“A powerful and provocative new single that channels raw energy into a rebellious anthem. The song is an intense outburst of sound and emotion, built for those who have ever felt like outsiders, pushing them to turn their frustration into strength.

“The meaning of 'Hate Manifesto' is deliberately ambivalent - it’s a battle cry against those who try to label and limit us, but also a reflection on the destructive power of hatred. The lyrics walk a fine line between defiance and self-destruction, asking: what do you do with your anger? Do you use it to fight back or let it consume you?” they added.

Talking about the video, the band comments:

“It plunges into a world of late 19th-century occultism, drawing inspiration from colonial-era America, voodoo rituals, and the dark shadows of superstition. Haunting imagery and ritualistic performances set the stage for a feverish descent into hysteria and revolt, where the line between persecutor and outcast blurs. Steeped in mysticism and unrest, the video mirrors the song’s raw energy - an invocation of defiance against those who seek to control and condemn. A song for the misfits, the rebels, and anyone who refuses to be silenced”.

Watch the Music Video for "Hate Manifesto" below:

'Horror Vacui' is the fourth album by SICK N' BEAUTIFUL. The album title is derived from an ancient Latin expression meaning “fear of emptiness”, which perfectly represents this new cycle for the band. 

The music and lyrics delve even deeper into themes of horror, dystopian sci-fi, and the supernatural - subjects the band has always been enamored with.

Written and produced by the band's bass player, Big Daddy Ray, at Kinorama Studios in Rome, Italy, the album concept took shape during tours in the UK and Europe alongside Wednesday 13 and Cradle of Filth in 2023 and 2024.

SICK N' BEAUTIFUL stated:

“By getting so close to the fans all over Europe, we really got a feel for what excites the audience. 'Horror Vacui' is an album meant to be played live: insane drumming, epic and anthemic choruses, face-melting solos - but also a lot of things we've never done before, with plenty of surprises! It's our heaviest album yet - raw and unrelenting!”

Pre-Order 'Horror Vacui' HERE

Established in 2014, SICK N' BEAUTIFUL's music has evolved into a unique blend of hard rock and modern metal infused with industrial and punk overtones, along with generous doses of sci-fi, horror, and occult influences for good measure. 

Led by the captivating Herma Sick, they assault the senses with a spectacular production filled with visual extravagance, all set against a musical backdrop that resonates with fans of heavier rock, reminiscent of Rob Zombie, Kiss, Rammstein, Lacuna Coil, Marilyn Manson, In This Moment, Alice Cooper, and Nine Inch Nails.

Currently headquartered in Rome, Italy, SICK N' BEAUTIFUL present an explosive show, featuring songs from their albums 'Hell Over Hell' (2015), 'Element Of Sex' (2018), and 'Starstruck' (2022). 

SICK N' BEAUTIFUL have toured extensively throughout Europe and has performed standout shows on legendary stages such as Wacken and Lucca Comicon. Their eclectic, cinematic videos have garnered hundreds of thousands of views on YouTube.

In their own cryptic words:

“This is the Ship Of Satan in Space. We have found kinship with the Different, the Strange, The Outcast: over the years, alongside our fans, we've laid the foundations of a hidden tribe where the power of music is wielded as a weapon against the Oppressors of all things Alien. In fact, an unseen war is now underway... So the question for you is: on which side will you stand?”

SICK N' BEAUTIFUL are:

Herma - Vocals

L0R1 - Lead Guitar

Nemes - Rhythm Guitar

Big Daddy Ray - Bass

Evey - Drums

Debt Neglector Release New Single "Tough Luck, Kid" via Smartpunk Records

Smartpunk Records' outspoken political punk rockers Debt Neglector have released their new single "Tough Luck, Kid!" from their upcoming full-length album "Kinda Rips," which is set to release on April 4, 2025 via Smartpunk Records. 

The track taps into a more personal and vulnerable side of the band as they explore the pressures and fears of fatherhood. The lyrical themes are set to the backdrop of Debt Neglector's signature fast-paced, anthemic punk sound.

Listen Below:

When discussing the single, Debt Neglector says, "This song is about the fear and insecurities I have after becoming a father. I’m so scared of passing on my anxiety and depression to my son. I’m trying so hard to be a good dad and want him to have an easier time than I did growing up. But are some of my issues hereditary? Is it completely unavoidable? Was I selfish for having a kid at all? I worry about these things literally all the time."

ABOUT DEBT NEGLECTOR:
Formed in 2016, these Florida punks have spent the last 8 years honing a sound that showcases their ability to blend catchy hooks with a vicious attitude. With four releases firmly under their belt, the “Atomicland” LP (2017), “The Kids are Pissed” EP (2018), the “Bad Faith” EP (2020), and the “Dirty Water” LP (2021), the band has already established themselves as a group that pulls no punches in their pursuit to call out injustice. Just to name a few, the band has screamed, shouted, and sang about systemic failures and distrust of the government, the fear of impending nuclear war, loss, depression, illness, and the USA’s sick obsession with assault rifles. And they’ve put their money where their mouth is by using their releases to double as fundraising efforts for organizations like the ACLU. Musically, their influences cover a lot of familiar and legendary punk rock ground. Taking notes from punk favorites the Descendents, Dillinger Four, and Bad Religion among others, Debt Neglector aren’t afraid to put their own spin on things. Their music keeps both a reverence for the past and a foot firmly placed in the present. The end result allows the band to craft songs with ripping fast drum beats, sing along choruses, quirky chord changes, and headbanging breaks. With past tours covering the US, Canada, and Europe, the band has set their sights on bringing their brand of pissed off punk music to whoever is ready and willing to listen. Debt Neglector are also no stranger to the festival scene with several appearances at The Fest (FL) and Sing it Out Loud Festival, and a showcase at Pouzza Fest (MTL), they have managed to share the stage with the likes of Propaghandi, Descendents and more. In 2024 Debt Neglector returned to the studio to follow up their past releases with a batch of new songs that has now become the “Kinda Rips” LP (Smartpunk Records – 2025). Their new music remains viciously political but also features some deeply personal topics including the pressures of fatherhood, insecurity, and dealing with mortality. The culmination is an album that is dynamic and relatable from a band whose angry and honest approach is a blunt kick in the pants to the powers that be.

ABOUT SMARTPUNK RECORDS:
Smartpunk has been a recognizable name in the scene for a long time (Remember that sponsored Warped Tour stage?!). After exchanging several hands and countless ideas of what it could and should be, they decided to start a record label in 2016 with the main idea of focusing solely on reissuing records that have been out of print or never on vinyl. After all, they're a label of vinyl dorks themselves! After releasing Set Your Goals' Mutiny and Gameface's Good, they started to venture into signing newer bands. They actively balance in between many worlds — putting out amazing music from friends and bands that rock, reissuing older titles, and partnering with other incredible labels in our scene and doing exclusive color variants of their releases.

Since forming the record label, Smartpunk Records has released timeless albums such as Less Than Jake's Anthem, Nominee's Lowlife, RIVALS' Sad Looks Pretty on Me, Virginity's POPMORTEM, and melodic skate punkers The Swellers' My Everest.

Dark Psychedelic Outfit MOON DESTROYS Releases New Single "Only" + Visualizer

Dark Psychedelic outfit MOON DESTROYS have released their new single "Only" off of their upcoming debut album 'She Walks By Moonlight', out on April 4th via Limited Fanfare Records. The single is accompanied by a visualizer, available to view below.

About the single, vocalist/guitarist Charlie Suárez states:

“Adorned with a series of unreasonable requests, 'Only' is a dire longing for continued exclusivity from another within the confines of addiction and/or substance abuse. Nothing more, but surely nothing less.”

Watch the Visualizer for "Only"

MOON DESTROYS, the project of guitarist Juan Montoya (ex-Torche, MonstrO) and drummer/bassist/producer Evan Diprima (Gold Pyramid, ex-Royal Thunder), delivers a fusion of massive, swirling guitars and tight rhythmic counterpoints influenced by Alternative, Post-Punk, and Dark Wave. Their 5-song EP, 'Maiden Voyage', was released in March 2020 via Brutal Panda Records, featuring guest vocals from Troy Sanders (Mastodon) and Paul Masvidal (Cynic), with synth contributions from Bryan Richie (The Sword).

Now, their debut LP, 'She Walks By Moonlight', arrives April 4, 2025, on Limited Fanfare Records. Writing began in late 2023, with Montoya in Miami and Diprima in North Carolina, collaborating remotely. Realizing the need for a permanent vocalist, they enlisted Montoya’s former MonstrO bandmate, Charlie Suárez, who contributed vocals, guitars, and synths. Diprima handled most engineering, production, and mixing, with mastering by Carl Saff(Sonic Youth, Magnolia Electric Co., Melt-Banana).

The album’s first single, "The Nearness of June", showcases Suárez’s hypnotic vocals and lyrical depth. Other standout tracks include today's "Echoes/The Empress", exploring human disconnect, and "Only", a plea to mend the irreconcilable.

In late 2024, bassist Arnold Nese (ex-Sunday Driver) joined to complete the lineup.

GWAR Partners with Concept Cafes to Unleash Berserker Mode Coffee

Prepare your taste buds for battle—GWAR has teamed up with Concept Cafes and Coterie Coffee Co. to bring you a brew as brutal as their music and stage show: BERSERKER MODE COFFEE!

Roasted high on a pyre of smoldering destruction, Berserker Mode is a bold, bodacious java, savagely sticky with muddy molassesness and foul-fruited candy sweetness—a real teeth-grinder of a roast. This isn’t your average morning pick-me-up. This is coffee forged in legend, powered by Blothar the Berserker’s grievous wrath, and brewed for only the mightiest of warriors.

According to ancient lore, Blothar the Berserker—frontman of the greatest shock rock band in the history of the universe, GWAR—once roamed the icy seas in a Viking longship. Lost and alone, he was lured by a green, split-tailed mermaid, her siren song calling him to the Indonesian archipelago. But his love was unrequited, and in his sorrow, Blothar wept like a 1000-pound baby.

From his bitter tears, coffee plants sprouted across the land of Java. And thus, Berserker Mode Coffee was born—a heady and powerful drink, crafted to fuel his rage before battle. Historians may claim Viking berserkers were jacked up on psychedelics, but GWAR knows the truth: it was coffee that drove them to insane battle-lust!

Blothar the Berserker says:

"The best part of getting blackout drunk is Berserker Mode Coffee. Each sip is infused with the bitter sorrow of unrequited love and that nagging feeling that something really weird happened last night. Berserker Mode Coffee is a savage brew fit for shock rock royalty. I sure feel like the King on my throne after sucking down a pot."

Now, for the first time, GWAR’s Berserker Mode Coffee is available to the masses. Whether preparing for battle, a brutal mosh pit, or just another soul-crushing day at work, this high-octane, savage roast will awaken your inner berserker.

Mike Tonsetic of Concept Cafes shares:

"My first intro to GWAR was 1992, freshman year of high school, when my girlfriend’s older brother showed up to school one morning in a white tee covered in fresh steamy GWAR-gasm, obviously from a show the night before; he was obsessed and made us watch bootleg VHS concerts. LOL. I just remember (if memory serves) Oderus going straight up ‘Omen’ on JPII (the Pontiff) with a giant crucifix and I was like WTF…I’m hooked on the atomic crack and have been ever since!!! Think the raddest part in the opportunity to collab with GWAR is the fact that not only are they one of the OGs of shock, but they’ve taken it to a whole other level, time & time again, over a legendary career; something we absolutely respect and admire, and strive to incorporate into everything we do."

Berserker Mode Coffee is available now, 

roasted by Coterie Coffee Co. and brought to you by Concept Cafes.

About GWAR:

The story of GWAR is carved across the history of this hopeless planet, but GWAR themselves are not of this world…Their story begins far past Uranus, in the deepest reaches of space, where the beings known as GWAR were warriors in the Scumdogs of the Universe, an elite fighting force in the army of the Master of All Reality. But GWAR proved too reckless and powerful, and after a series of tragic but hilarious blunders, they were banished to the furthest reaches of the galaxy, with orders to conquer an insignificant backwater prehistoric mudball known as the planet Earth. Once here, GWAR, the original Ancient Aliens, shaped the face of the globe, wiping out the dinosaurs, and mating with apes to create the human race. Having accidentally given rise to all human history, the Master of All Reality froze them in Antarctic ice where they could do no more harm. It was there they were discovered by a shady entrepreneur known as Sleazy P Martini, who sat the band down in front of professional wrestling, late-night horror movies, heavy metal music, and a steady diet of crack cocaine until GWAR became the cultural force they are today!

About CONCEPT CAFES:

Everybody remembers that first opening riff, that mid-song breakdown, that blast beat crescendo that turned them on, and tuned them into Metal forever. With our artist partners like Cannibal Corpse, Max & Iggor Cavalera, and Ministry; we’re trying to recapture that moment of Metal possession for the fans by immersing them into a Metal coffee obsession like no other. As lifelong fans ourselves, we’re constantly seeking out the most epic Metal experiences; whether it’s records, live shows, merch, etc., so if we can maybe someday say we were a small part of that collective fan experience, then we’ve done our job. It’s also super important for us to illuminate the fact that these are the artists’ coffee stories, not our own, we’re just the chaotic-evil little elves that help them conjure their visions and forge them into reality for the fans.

We’re not here to snobbishly push conventional coffee culture upon Metalheads either, nor will we ever try to flip a quick gimmick on our Metal brothers & sisters to make a quick buck. We’re humbled literally everyday with this responsibility, and the opportunity to work with Metal legends. This is why we are constantly pushing the boundaries and possibilities, because foremost we believe there is no other comparison to the dedicated devotion metalheads have in keeping Metal music alive and stronger than ever! Metal deserves the absolute best when it comes to coffee!

Reality is coffee culture has become basic cookie-cutter over the past couple of decades; so safe and just a shell of itself which once fueled artists and their music across several generations. We want to revive that creative fire, and as far as playing it safe…it’s metal, motorcycles, & horror…what did you expect?!

Mavis Drop New Single "Sentinel Hill"

MAVIS unleash their most electrifying track to date with "Sentinel Hill," a high-energy, bouncy metalcore anthem packed with earth-shaking breakdowns, hauntingly catchy melodies, and a still-urgent message — maybe now more than ever.

Told through the eyes of a supernatural creature like their last single "DNA," the song explores the relentless clash between humankind and nature, as ancient titans are called upon to restore balance before it's too late.

With towering riffs, explosive drums, and soaring hooks, "Sentinel Hill" is a call to arms for a world on the brink. The song's almost Dungeons & Dragons-inspired lead melody in the chorus adds an epic, mystical quality, drawing the listener deeper into its apocalyptic tale — a refreshing and unique twist for metalcore.

Directed by Chris Hesse (Strangeworks), the video brings the song's themes to life, shifting between majestic nature and cold industrial landscapes — a stark visual reflection of the battle between life and destruction.

Produced by Manuel Renner at Überlärm Studios, "Sentinel Hill" pushes MAVIS' sound further than ever, merging razor-sharp aggression with anthemic, haunting beauty.

Kill The Lights Celebrate Anniversary of "Death Melodies" Anniversary With "Nothing Left" B-Side

Kill The Lights, which features former members of Bullet for My Valentine, Throw the Fight, Threat Signal, and Still Remains, dropped their incendiary sophomore album Death Melodies on March 8, 2024 via Fearless Records. 

Kill The Lights are celebrating the one-year anniversary release of Death Melodies by dropping the B-side "Nothing Left" and it's quite the ripper. The moshy, mid-tempo anthem features the band's ferociously familiar galloping, thrashy guitar solos and two-tier vocal attack, pitting corrosive screams with soaring melodic singing. This is how you celebrate a metallic milestone. While the band's intricate guitar work nods to the '80s, Kill the Lights always infuse their sound with a modern flair

"'Nothing Left' is a song that discusses the inner battle that those people dealing with anxiety and ADHD have with themselves on a daily basis," says singer James Clark. "'Nothing Left' talks about the daily tightrope that must be navigated to try and feel 'normal.' The song talks about the struggle, while also recognizes and accepts that it's something you have to live and deal with. Half the battle is managing the symptoms and taking each day at a time."

Certain bonds cross any and all borders and boundaries. Kill The Lights harbor this kind of connection between them. Even though you’ve got Michael "Moose" Thomas [drums] and Jason "Jay" James [bass] in Bridgend, Wales, James Clark [vocals] in Minneapolis, MN, Jordan Whelan [guitar] in Grand Rapids, MI, and Travis Montgomery [guitar] in Dallas, TX, the musicians lock into an impenetrable groove that eclipses physical distance. The band is especially adept at fusing classic, galloping guitar riffing with modern metal conventions, like alternately sung and screamed vocals and breakdowns that will incite pits to erupt. 

Of course, the musicians boast an incredible pedigree. Moose co-founded multi-platinum international heavyweights Bullet For My Valentine, while Jay also played in the band. James fronted Throw The Fight, and Jordan and Travis handled guitar duties for Still Remains and Threat Signal, respectively. Upon forming Kill The Lights, they uncovered uncontainable chemistry, releasing their debut LP The Sinner in the midst of the global COVID-19 pandemic. Among many highlights, "The Faceless" posted up 2 million-plus Spotify streams and counting followed by "Through The Night" and "Shed My Skin," which each crossed the 1 million mark. Metal Hammer rated it 4-out-of-5 stars and proclaimed "Kill The Lights nail the groove and the glory." After piling up millions of streams and earning acclaim from the likes of KERRANG! and New Noise, a sense of unwavering unity drives their second full-length offering, Death Melodies.

Imminence Release Extended Edition of "The Black" Titled "The Return of the Black," Share New Song "God Fearing Man"— LISTEN

Following the remarkable global triumph of their latest album The Black, released on April 12, 2024, Imminence has firmly established themselves as one of the most rapidly rising and in-demand acts in modern alternative music. The band’s explosive success has been further cemented by their first-ever full U.S. headline tour, which saw the majority of dates sell out, a completely sold-out European headline tour in October, and their first Australian headline shows selling out in record time — marking an extraordinary 2024 for Imminence.

Kicking off 2025 with an almost entirely sold-out Scandinavian headline tour, the band now sets the stage for the release of The Return of The Black — an extended edition of their latest album. Leading the charge is the hard-hitting single and music video "God Fearing Man," setting the tone for Imminence's relentless momentum into the new year.

Watch the video below:

Despite the busiest year in their career, Imminence show no signs of slowing down. The new chapter of 2025 began with the unyielding release of their heaviest and most extreme composition to date, "Death Shall Have No Dominion"— a track that plunges listeners into deeper, darker territories before lifting them back up with the powerful new focus track "God Fearing Man." Fusing their signature orchestral string arrangements, led by vocalist and violinist Eddie Berg, with a crushing instrumental foundation, Imminence continues to refine their distinctive sound — one that fans have aptly dubbed "violincore."

Beyond these new singles, The Return of The Black expands on the album’s legacy with re-mastered versions featuring a stellar lineup of guest musicians, including Lucas Woodland (Holding Absence), Niklas Karlsson (Orbit Culture), Joel Holmqvist (Aviana), Scott Kennedy (Bleed From Within), and Tim Charles (Ne Obliviscaris). The extended edition also boasts two brand-new remixes by producer and longtime collaborator VAAAL, alongside an exclusive cover of "The Black" by Jiluka — set to open for Imminence during their highly anticipated North American tour this spring. Closing the album is the hauntingly beautiful instrumental track "La Douleur Qui Est Sans Fin," marking the final chapter of The Black.

Recently, Imminence celebrated the 10-year anniversary of their debut album Iwith a special re-release featuring newly recorded vocals and a fresh mix and master. The Reclamation of I has been met with overwhelming acclaim, underscoring the band’s decade-long journey that has amassed over 1,000,000 followers across platforms, more than 400,000,000 streams, and a streak of sold-out shows worldwide. Now, Imminence is ready to take the next step—announcing their first-ever European arena headline shows. This groundbreaking production, "The Black Finale," will showcase the band in an entirely new light across five handpicked cities in December 2025.

With the imminent release of the extended edition, "The Return of The Black Tour: North America 2025" is set to kick off, followed by a packed summer festival season and additional live performances on new continents, soon to be revealed. The era of The Black is far from over, and Imminence is poised to make 2025 their most monumental year yet.
