DREW BALDRIDGE FINDS THE PERFECT MATCH IN EMILY ANN ROBERTS FOR NEW DUET, “GET ME GONE” - OUT JULY 25

Chart-topping singer-songwriter Drew Baldridge will release his latest single, “Get Me Gone,” a stirring duet featuring rising star Emily Ann Roberts. The emotionally charged track is available on Friday, July 25 on all streaming platforms via Lyric Ridge Records/BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. Pre-save/pre-add HERE

Written by Baldridge alongside acclaimed songwriters Josh Jenkins, Allison Veltz Cruz, and Trannie Anderson, and produced by Nick Schwarz, “Get Me Gone” tells the story of magnetic attraction. The pair trade verses with raw vulnerability and fiery tension in a moment that feels both fleeting and unforgettable.

“As soon as I wrote this song, I knew it’d be a powerful duet,” says Baldridge. “It took me a while to find the perfect voice for it, but one day I came across Emily Ann on social media and I loved her sound. So I just hopped in her DMs and asked if she’d collab with me! It’s been amazing to work with her on this song.”

Adds Roberts, “When Drew sent me the song I knew he had something special. I was honored he wanted to include me on it. ‘Get Me Gone’ immediately makes you think of the person you love and how you don’t need anything but them to have a good time.”

“Get Me Gone” showcases Baldridge’s signature heartfelt storytelling while highlighting the undeniable vocal chemistry between him and Roberts, whose breakout solo career continues to earn widespread acclaim. The duet follows Baldridge’s second consecutive Top 10 country radio hit, “Tough People” (Lyric Ridge Records/Stoney Creek Records), further building on his momentum and his partnership with BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville.

In addition to a run of summer tour dates supporting Bailey Zimmerman, Baldridge was recently announced as a performer at the NSAI Songwriter Awards, taking place at the Ryman Auditorium on September 23. “Get Me Gone” also serves as the first preview of more new music from Baldridge, expected later this year.

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

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

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

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

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

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

About THE SORROW OF BEING IMMACULATE:

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

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

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

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

Stoned Jesus Shine Mightily on "Shadowland"

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Guitarist Paul O’Sullivan says,

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

Vocalist Steph O’Sullivan adds,

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

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

Stream/Listen to "Moon" HERE

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

About KAUPE:

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

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

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

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

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

KAUPE is: 
 

  • Brett Walker – Guitar

  • Marc Larabel – Drums

  • Pete Medrano – Bass

  • Patrick Ross – Keys

Ian Munsick Makes History w/ Cheyenne Frontier Days Headlining Debut

A native son of Sheridan, Wyoming, Ian Munsick returned home Saturday night (July 18), for his ultimate bucket list moment: headlining the “Daddy of ‘em All,” Cheyenne Frontier Days in Cheyenne, Wyoming.
 
Country star Travis Tritt took the stage prior to Munsick, in a full-circle moment which Munsick reflected on in an interview with CBS News: “He was the first country star to really embrace me, so for me to be able to ask him to come and play on the biggest stage in Wyoming… that’s going to be a huge honor.”
 
When Munsick moved to Nashville to pursue music at 18, he carried the influences of the West with him, curating a unique brand of country that has been celebrated by HITS Daily Double and The New Yorker alike for putting “the Western back in Country.” For a set playing the largest stage in the state of Wyoming, this career-long pursuit of representing the West culminated in a 22-song setlist that served as an homage to the place that made his dream possible. 
 
Munsick kickstarted the evening with his 2021 release “I See Country” – which has become a fan-favorite at line dance halls in the years since its release – and the rowdy “Barn Burner” off his sophomore album, White Buffalo
 
Introducing his ode to Cheyenne Frontier Days, “Cheyenne,” Munsick reflected on his homecoming, stating “I wrote this song about a year ago, manifesting the moment that’s happening right now.”
 
As the evening progressed, fans enthusiastically line danced and boot stomped along to each song, with one couple pausing during faith-based love song “More Than Me” for a proposal.
 
Towards the end of his set, Munsick shared the stage with another Wyoming native, Ryan Charles, for the song that popularized his Belt Buckle Shuffle dance move, “Cowboy Killer.” The curtains closed with one more ode to his homeland, “Mountain Time,” leaving fans demanding more, not quite ready to let Munsick leave the Rockies just yet.
 
Luckily for them, Munsick had one more special moment up his sleeve, welcoming his dad, Dave, and his brother, Sam, on stage, reunited as The Munsick Boys. Singing “Prairie Lament i” and a cover of Chris LeDoux’s “Rodeo Moon,” the trio gave the crowd a glimpse of the beginning of Munsick’s career – performing as a family once again under the Cheyenne skies, just as he did as a kid.

“‘Surrounded’ felt like the right way to kick off this next chapter,” shares Wetzel of the hard-driving track that delves into the feeling of being trapped by a memory you can’t outrun. “The way fans locked into it live from the jump has been wild, so we’re fired up to finally let the full thing loose this week.”
 
The release of “Surrounded” follows a landmark year that saw Wetzel hit five consecutive weeks at No. 1 with 9 Lives standout “High Road” featuring Jessie Murph, land on year-end “Best Of” lists from the likes of Rolling Stone, Billboard, LA Times, Tennessean, Holler and more, grace the cover or POLLSTAR and receive three new RIAA certifications at the sold-out Red Rocks finale of the Damn Near Normal World Tour, which saw the renegade rockstar perform for well over 200,000 fans globally with over 96% of all headline tickets sold – and even spawned its own live album.
 
With new music arriving this week, a nonstop touring schedule this summer and his Madison Square Garden debut this fall, Wetzel shows no signs of slowing down.

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

Modern Country Traditionalist Spencer Hatcher Signs With WME

QHMG / Stone Country Records’ modern country traditionalist Spencer Hatcher has signed with WME for global representation. 
 
Noted by Billboard for his sound that “fits the ’90s-country revival that’s still turning heads among the genre’s base,” Hatcher is a bluegrass-influenced country artist who was raised on a farm in the heartland of Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley. He began playing five-string banjo in his family’s bluegrass band at the age of 11 and formed his own country band in 2020.   
 
Before signing with Stone Country Records in October 2024, Hatcher was self-booking more than 150 shows a year after going viral with online covers of classic songs from his heroes, including Johnny Cash, Keith Whitley and Elvis Presley. Hatcher has now amassed more than 890,000 social media followers and 60 million views.  
 
“Spencer Hatcher is one to watch! He’s a standout in this traditional music renaissance we’re experiencing,” said WME Agent Carter Green. “Spencer's musicianship, authenticity and work ethic are second to none, and we can’t wait to help take his music to new audiences worldwide.”
 
“Signing with WME for representation is an incredible opportunity I’m so thankful for,” said Hatcher. “If you know me, then you know I always wear Elvis’s ‘TCB’ motto on a chain around my neck, and with WME now working alongside my record label, Stone Country Records, taking care of business is exactly what we’ll be doing!”
 
Hatcher’s new focus track, the after-dark charmer “When She Calls Me Cowboy,” releases this Friday (7/25) and is available now for pre-save / pre-add.
 
About Spencer Hatcher:
Stone Country Records’ Spencer Hatcher is a bluegrass-influenced country artist who was raised on a farm in the heartland of Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley. By the age of 11, Hatcher was already playing his five-string banjo in his family’s bluegrass band. In 2020, he formed his own country band, backed by younger brother Connor Hatcher, a bass prodigy and “blood harmony” supporting vocalist.  
 
Quickly developing a reputation across Virginia and neighboring states as an exciting live performer, Hatcher self-booked and played more than 150 shows a year in both 2023 and in 2024, often setting venue attendance records. 
 
Hatcher has built a strong fanbase, including 890,000 social media followers. He has amassed over 60 million views, including 8.6 million likes on TikTok alone. This led to a high-profile partnership with PepsiCo, with Hatcher co-writing and performing a bluegrass jingle for a nationwide commercial for Mountain Dew Major Melon. 
 
While Hatcher is still known as a “banjo shredder,” he’s now equally renowned for guitar picking and his unique vocals with a smooth southern drawl. The Daily News-Record, Hatcher’s hometown newspaper in Harrisonburg, Virginia, has dubbed him the “String King.” 

Hatcher closely studies his musical heroes, including fellow bluegrass-turned-country artist Keith Whitley, but as this young old-fashioned gentleman begins his Nashville adventure, he’s determined to forge his own creative path. 
 
Following his debut release on Stone Country Records – a three-pack of traditional country songs featuring the feel-good focus track “Cold Beer and Common Sense” – Hatcher’s new focus track, the after-dark charmer “When She Calls Me Cowboy,” is scheduled for release on July 25 and available now for pre-save / pre-add.

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

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

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

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

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

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

About CLAWFINGER

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

Zak Tell | vocals

Jocke Skog | guitar, keyboards

ALL HELL Unleash New Single “The Bleeding” from Forthcoming Album Sunsetter

Blackened metal trio ALL HELL has released “The Bleeding,” the first single from their upcoming album Sunsetter, due out October 10, 2025 on Terminus Hate City.

A blistering, high-speed descent into vampiric hunger and ritualistic violence, “The Bleeding” offers the first glimpse into the apocalyptic narrative of Sunsetter, a concept album spanning millennia of exile, resurrection, and mythic doom. The track also features a scorching guest guitar solo by Nate Garnette of SKELETONWITCH, a longtime friend and collaborator of the band.

Lyrically, “The Bleeding” places listeners in the mind of a predator, one of the cursed children of Cain, seeking blood offerings for a long-slumbering sire. The result is pure sonic ferocity, blending d-beat punk energy with the band’s signature blackened edge and occult atmosphere.

Sunsetter is the fifth full-length from ALL HELL, following a string of acclaimed releases including The Grave Alchemist and The Witch’s Grail. Known for their punishing live shows and genre-defying sound, the band has toured with RINGWORM, BLACK TUSK, and PROFANATICA, and has performed at Decibel Metal and Beer Fest, RPM Fest, and more.

About ALL HELL:

ALL HELL is a blackened metal trio from Asheville, North Carolina, known for their relentless fusion of first wave black metal, deathrock, punk, and horror-driven storytelling. Since forming in 2013, the band has carved out a distinct identity rooted in occult themes, razor-sharp riffs, and a fierce DIY ethos. Their sound is aggressive, stripped-down, and deeply atmospheric — a raw, unfiltered descent into myth, violence, and the supernatural.

With five full-length albums and an EP to their name, including 2025’s apocalyptic concept record Sunsetter, ALL HELL has evolved from a local cult favorite into a powerful underground force. Their live presence has taken them across the U.S., sharing stages with acts like RINGWORM, BLACK TUSK, PROFANATICA, and TURN COLD, and performing at festivals such as Decibel Metal and Beer Fest, Dark Lord Day, and RPM Fest.

The current lineup, Jacob Curwen (guitar and vocals), Erik Ballantyne (bass), and Elanti (drums), continues to push the band’s sound forward while staying true to its core. With each release, ALL HELL digs deeper into a unique mythos that spans history, horror, and apocalypse, embracing the dark, the ugly, and the eternal night.

ALL HELL is:
 

  • Jacob Curwen – Guitar and Vocals

  • Erik Ballantyne – Bass

  • Elanti – Drums

Thy Catafalque Release Live Video Ahead of First Latin American Tour

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Frontiers Music Srl Welcomes Rock Icon JOHN CORABI to Its Artist Roster

Frontiers Music Srl is proud to announce the signing of legendary rock vocalist JOHN CORABI to its roster of iconic artists.

Known for his powerful voice and rich legacy with bands like Mötley Crüe, The Dead Daisies, Union, and The Scream, CORABI is looking forward to releasing new music in collaboration with producer/songwriter Marti Frederiksen.

He promises an organic 60’s-70’s style record and can’t wait to get back on the road with a talented solo band featuring his son Ian on drums, and a few great friends.

JOHN expressed his excitement by saying:

“I’m thankful to Frontiers Records for the opportunity to give you guys some new music!! I’ve been writing and recording with my good pal Marti Frederiksen here in Nashville, and I can’t wait for you to hear it all!”

Tom Lipsky, Head of A&R of North America for Frontiers Label Group, commented:

“It is exciting to bring JOHN into the Frontiers Label Group. He has fans around the world, and he is respected by the artist community as a musician, singer and songwriter. JOHN’s new music will take his accomplished career to an even higher level”.

JOHN CORABI is a journeyman singer-songwriter and guitarist who burst onto the music scene with Hollywood Records recording artists The Scream in 1991. Touring extensively throughout the United States on the strength of their songs “Man In The Moon," “I Believe In Me," and “Father Mother Son," JOHN attracted the attention of radio, MTV, fans, and critics alike.

Mötley Crüe’s Nikki Sixx reached out to JOHN after the departure of Vince Neil in 1992 and asked him to join the band for the writing and recording of their 1994 self-titled record. During the recording process of the follow-up 'Generation Swine' album in late 1996, Vince Neil returned to the band, and JOHN started the band Union with former KISS guitarist Bruce Kulick.

Union headed into a studio to record their debut self-titled album in 1998. With Union, JOHNreleased three albums between 1998 and 2001. Afterwards, JOHN left Union to join the band RATT on their 2001 summer tour, handling guitar and backing vocal duties. Touring constantly from 2001 - 2008, JOHN eventually left the band to go out on his own.

JOHN has released the acoustic album 'Unplugged' in 2012 and a live album, “Live 94, One Night In Nashville,' in 2018, as well as multiple original and tribute singles. JOHN received a phone call in 2015 to join the all-star collective called The Dead Daisies, and has since recorded the albums 'Revolución,' 'Make Some Noise,' 'Live And Louder,' 'Burn It Down,' 'Light Em’ Up,' and a recently released blues covers record 'Looking For Trouble.'

For the last ten years, with The Dead Daisies and as a solo acoustic artist, JOHN has toured extensively in Europe, the United States, Japan, South America, Australia, and the United Kingdom, playing all the major festivals and selling out shows to a growing, loyal fan base.

With his 2022 autobiography “Horseshoes And Hand Grenades," and 19 full-length records under his belt, spanning a 35-year career, JOHN is anxious to release record number 20, and play the new songs live. The future looks bright for JOHN!
