Excide Share "Your Flowers" Video

Carolina post-hardcore quintet EXCIDE, who've been tipped by Stereogum, Brooklyn Vegan, and Revolver, are back with the visualizer for their brand new single "YOUR FLOWERS." It's a hyperkinetic anthem with plenty of push and pull guitar energy, a monster breakdown, and singalong choruses.

Watch and listen below

"This song is all about feeling deceived, manipulated, and taken advantage of," the band says. "We put so much of ourselves into what we create, and only ever want it to have a fair shot out in your world. This single is a first installment from something huge that we've been putting together for a long time. It survived many obstacles to see the light of day today. We can't wait to share more with you all soon."

Don't worry — more information will be revealed in due course.

During 2020, Excide initially introduced a boundary-breaking signature style gestated across projects such as Two of a Kind and Actualize / Radiation Reel. Two years later, momentum picked up on the heels of their independent full-length debut, Deliberate Revolver, which incited the applause of Brooklyn VeganRevolver, and more. They caught the attention of Sharptone Records and inked a deal with the label. In 2024, their next era ramped up in earnest with the two-pack Humdinger, including "Dis(re)member" and "All Down (But 9)." Right away, Stereogum raved, "Both of its tracks go hard," and NO ECHO marveled at how "the band's dynamic blend of '90s-flavored hardcore and propulsive post-hardcore rhythms has shined brightly on each of their releases."

Ultimately, Excide make an authentically original statement by simply being who they are.

"When you take a risk, it either pays off or it doesn't," the band says. "No matter what, it's definitely worthwhile though. There are so many deep cut gems out there because of those artists who were willing to risk it all. I hope you walk away from the album inspired to take a chance and do more. You never know what might happen."

Swollen Teeth Release Latest Single "Foster" + Official Music Video (via Blowed Out Records)

Swollen Teeth have today unleashed their emotionally charged new single "Foster" and the accompanying music video (via Blowed Out Records). Amidst punishing grooves and haunting melodic tension, the track highlights an often overlooked topic in modern heavy music: the importance of a safe home, particularly for children. Today's release is taken from the band's forthcoming new album 'Ask Nothing', out on Friday, September 5 and produced by legendary producer Ross Robinson (Korn, Glassjaw, At The Drive In) and Slipknot's Sid Wilson. When asked about the inspiration behind "Foster", the band commented:

"Home is a place where you feel safe and plant your roots deep enough to grow. We want to provide a permanent home for feelings and emotions. Every child deserves to know they are loved, protected, and cared for unconditionally."

Stream "Foster" at the link here, and watch the official video below. Pre-save 'Ask Nothing' here and pre-order the vinyl here, first pressing limited to 300 copies.

Don't miss your chance to see Swollen Teeth at their newly announced show in Old Town, Maine, on Saturday, July 5, before hitting the stage at this year's FEQ Festival in Quebec on Monday, July 7 and Inkcarceration 2025 in Mansfield, OH, on Saturday, July 19.

ABOUT SWOLLEN TEETH

The sound, the look, the atmosphere, the lore. Swollen Teeth are as much a ritual as a performance, summoning primal ferocity in clouds of intrigue with a thundering rumble. Each musical outburst arrives shrouded in mystery, enveloped by a sense of dread, with passion and purpose. Heavy percussion, riffs, punk gang chants, dive bombs, turntables, breakdowns, shrieks, guttural screams, and powerfully unashamed anthemic melodies coalesce in Swollen Teeth. The collective absorbs the raw intensity of the most potent subculture and spits it back with a determined uniqueness. They’ve spent countless hours in the lab, lobbing out occasional missives online like Molotov cocktails. Each of the scattered, chopped-up, and explosive clips unleashed to the world, culled from a handful of shadowy live appearances, built anticipation for the group’s inevitable ascension. They travel in our dimension but are not of it. This is otherworldly chaos without apology.



Swollen Teeth burst onto the scene in 2021 with their self-titled EP, a visceral blend of brutality and raw emotion that garnered praise from heavy music outlets and fans alike. Singles "EMPTY", "LETHAL" "CAR CRASH" and "SWOLLENTEETH" showcased their unpredictable, frenetic energy, which Revolver Magazine described as "brutal as hell." with Metal Hammer enthusing that "there’s an air of grotesque nu metal nastiness that feels like a re-vamped take on the misanthropic nihilism of Iowa’s finest." and Kerrang! musing "What's really heavy, masked, mysterious, sounds like it was made by complete lunatics, and involves Slipknot DJ Sid Wilson and producer Ross Robinson?."

DIY Punk Rock Band KEDDIES RESORT Releases Title Track from Upcoming Album + Music Video

Today, Portland’s punk rock outfit KEDDIES RESORT is excited to release the title track from their upcoming album, 'American Spirit,' out on July 4th via Sweatband Records. Gritty, high-energy, and unapologetically raw, “American Spirit” showcases the band’s unfiltered DIY ethos and knack for fusing punk rock intensity with power pop hooks.

The music video for "American Spirit" is premiered with New Noise Magazine and can be viewed below.

With distorted guitars, driving rhythms, and a pointed vocal delivery, “American Spirit” dives headfirst into the chaos and contradictions of modern American life. It’s a scathing yet anthemic reflection of the times — both a personal vent and a cultural critique wrapped in the band’s signature lo-fi sound.

Keddie Smith comments on the new single:

"This is the start of the whole story of the album. Concept character gets fired from his job 'rightfully so,' he’s always felt under-appreciated due to a lack of education and medications. Little does he know getting fired from his job was the best thing for him, but also the worst for his most hated coworkers and boss. This sets him off on a journey throughout every state of America, perfecting his plot."

KEDDIES RESORT is a three piece explosion with a catalogue consisting of 4 EP’s and 4 LP's titled 'Makita''KYST', 'A Killer Goodbye' and most recently, 'American Spirit'

Since their first show on April 2nd of 2022 they’ve quickly climbed the ranks in the Portland music scene gaining popularity and solidifying a strong fan base. The power trio punches above its weight, with a striking mix of Alt-rock, punk, and harmonic pop sensibilities.

Their stage antics have gained the band major notoriety in the all ages scene landing them the title “Portlands most infamous band.” When they’re not inducing indoor crowd tornadoes, you can find them playing generator shows under bridges and in the basements and garages that have been served as the backbone of underground youth culture in Portland for years.

Their upcoming album, 'American Spirit,' delivers sweet, fuzzed-out power pop packed with infectious hooks and raw energy. KEDDIES RESORT captures the spirit of Portland’s youth and counter culture with a sound that’s as vibrant and unfiltered as it is unforgettable. A blast of pure DIY exhilaration on wax.

WATCH 40 CYCLE HUM - “RISE UP” Lyric Video Below:

In a world overwhelmed with musical diversity, ideology and artistic bias, it can sometimes be a daunting task seeking out those talents truly worthy of praise. Let’s face it - everyone is aware that it should all be about the music, but in a society that thrives on social media influencers, overblown pop star frenzies  dictating everything and force feeding social & corporate money making gimmicks, the music has regrettably taken a back seat. Still there are those few uncompromising musicians scattered among us that prefer to rely on good old-fashioned brow-beating hard work rather than succumb to the prefabricated mainstream success that is so prevalent in today’s modern musical arena.

 

Enter 40 Cycle Hum, whose genuine approach to writing and performing is sure to cause fans and industry types everywhere to stand up and take notice. This latest powerhouse offering boasts a massive punch and will no doubt have even the most docile fans throwing their fists to the air. Produced and engineered by Stevo Bruno (Five Finger Death Punch, Motley Crue, Prong), and mastered by the late great George Marino of Sterling Sound.  The album features 12 scorching tracks including “Seven Stitches”, "Rise Up”, and more. In addition the CD is packaged with original artwork by famed horror director Clive Barker (Hellraiser, Lords of Illusion, Gods & Monsters). 40 CYCLE HUM is the long awaited triumphant follow-up to the band’s 2006 debut, Secret Skin!

 

The band’s inception featured Singer/Frontman/Guitarist Brandon Mitchell, Guitarist Rocky George (of Suicidal Tendencies/ Infections Grooves),  Bassist Mike Duda (of W.A.S.P., and Drummer Francis Ruiz (Buckcherry) who were involved in much of shaping the band’s direction and songwriting approach.   The industry would then call on Rocky George and Mike Duda to fulfill their responsibilities in their other respective bands.  Mike was called back to W.A.S.P., and Rocky was called to FISHBONE. 

 

It was at that time guitarist Mark Zavon (Kill Devil Hill), and Bassist Kenny Lefort joined the fold and began forging a new path ahead.  As fate would dictate,  the musical climate changed among other developments, and eventually resulted in the band members pursuing other musical endeavors.    

 

While the guys have individually and collectively paid their dues, and have been a part of many musical collaborations and bands, the fact that what they created together is “worthy”.    Worthy of being heard, shared, loved by true music fans,  but also worthy of being performed and recognized along side of their established musical cohorts & peers.  With the band members having remained in touch with each other and remaining active in the music world,  the universe has now set the stage to allow 40 Cycle Hum to share the great music they have created! 

 

“Music is a tough business; the cards are stacked against you before you even get started. But if you're in it for the right reasons it becomes its own reward. We all have to pay the bills, but at the end of the day, nothing beats doing something you really love.”

 

Originality is a scarce thing in music anymore, although once in a while there are definitely worthwhile exceptions.  40 Cycle Hum are no different than other musicians in that the are a product of their influences, but by combining their influences, they make music that remains fresh and relevant to today’s listeners.

BMG RELEASES BOOM BOOM, A POWERFUL LATE-CAREER ALBUM BY BLUES ICON JOHN LEE HOOKER

BMG is proud to announce the upcoming release of Boom Boom, a revelatory album from blues legend John Lee Hooker, arriving July 25, 2025, with pre-orders beginning today. Originally released in 1992, the album captures Hooker in full creative stride following his 1989 comeback with The Healer, reinterpreting his most beloved tracks with a cast of modern blues titans.  Audio was sourced from the original master tapes to cut lacquers for the album’s first ever wide release on vinyl.  The album will also be available on CD with two bonus tracks.  

Pre-order HERE
 

Recorded at Russian Hill Recording in San Francisco and The Record Plant in Sausalito, Boom Boom finds Hooker revisiting classic cuts like “Boom Boom” ,“Bottle Up and Go” with fresh intensity and soul. Lending their talents to the sessions are blues powerhouses Jimmie Vaughan, Robert Cray, Albert Collins, and Charlie Musselwhite, who bring fire and reverence to Hooker’s gritty grooves.  The album received a Grammy® nomination for Best Traditional Blues Album in 1993.
 

This project reinforces Hooker’s enduring relevance and influence, decades after defining the blues landscape. Boom Boom is not just a tribute to his legacy—it’s a vibrant reaffirmation of it.  


Known to music fans around the world as the “King of the Boogie,” John Lee Hooker endures as one of the true superstars of the blues genre: the ultimate beholder of cool. His work is widely recognized for its impact on modern music – his raw, yet deeply moving songs transcend borders and languages around the globe. Each decade of Hooker’s ever-evolving career brought a new generation of fans. He never slowed down either: As John Lee Hooker entered his 70s, he suddenly found himself in the most successful era of his career – reinvented yet again, energized as ever, touring and recording up until his passing in 2001.

DANKO JONES - ANNOUNCE 12th STUDIO ALBUM LEO RISING

Toronto’s hardest‑working power trio, DANKO JONES, roar back with LeoRising, an eleven-track masterclass in sweat-soaked, no-nonsense rock ’n’ roll. The album – produced to red‑hot perfection by long‑time collaborator Eric Ratz – lands on 21 November 2025 via Perception - A Division of Reigning Phoenix Music and  Sonic Unyon (for Canada). Pre‑orders, limited‑edition vinyl variants, and special merch bundles are available today at https://dankojones.rpm.link/leorisingPR

Following the rabid reception to opening salvo "What You Need" and party‑starting anthem "Everyday Is Saturday Night”, LeoRising turns the dial past eleven with razor‑sharp riffs, thunderous rhythms and fist‑pumping hooks. Guitar legend Marty Friedman (MEGADETH, CACOPHONY) makes a blistering guest appearance on future single “Diamond in the Rough,” while other stand‑outs – from the priapic swagger of “Hot Fox” to the roof‑rattling “It’s a Celebration” – prove DANKO JONES are keeping rock alive by doing it better than anyone else.

I like the routine of recording, touring, writing, repeat - I can do that till I’m dead,” grins front‑man Danko Jones and adds “It may sound boring, but it’s so hard for a band to achieve. I don’t take this lightly. Also, it’s a page out of the Motörhead handbook so it works! LeoRising is another serving of peerless hard‑rock: bass, drums, guitar, vocals, no frills. Roll the windows down and crank it.”

John Calabrese laid down bass tracks from Finland, Rich Knox flew to Toronto to record drums, and Danko worked with producer Eric Ratz in the same city to capture vocals and guitars. Despite recording separately once again, the band’s chemistry is unmistakable. The result is pure DANKO JONES: tight, loud, and built for the stage. Leo Rising may be their most electrifying and uplifting record yet — a jolt of high-octane rock made for packed clubs, open highways, and everything in between.

Proving that their time was well-spent, Danko, bassist John Calabrese and drummer Rich Knox have conjured yet another blazing banquet of nourishing rock goodness on their 12th studio record, due for release later this year.

RAMONDA Shares New Single "Bad Girl" + Music Video

Today, Argentinian singer SANTIAGO RAMONDA is proud to share his new single “Bad Girl,” along with its accompanying official video, taken from his upcoming debut album ‘The Walls Are Crumbling Down,’ out on July 18th via Frontiers Music Srl.

SANTIAGO RAMONDA describes the new single:

’Bad Girl’ is a song that allows you to explore darkness and seduction in a particular way. The lyrics reflect my fascination for women who are not afraid to be themselves, who don't stop at anything, and who live life on their own terms. The music is a perfect blend of rock and sensuality, with a rhythm that makes you want to move and sing.

 

“As a composer, I'm proud to be able to capture all that intensity. This track envelops you in an atmosphere that makes you feel pure adrenaline. It's a song that makes you feel alive, that makes you want more. And that's exactly what I'm looking for with my music: for the listener to connect with it, to feel part of it, and to feel alive!”, he added.

Watch the Music Video for “Bad Girl" Below:

Frontiers Music Srl is pleased to present the upcoming debut album from RAMONDA, the first solo release by the brilliant Argentinian singer SANTIAGO RAMONDA.

RAMONDA had already caught the attention of the melodic hard rock scene with Stormwarning's debut album, and he's back again—this time under the direction of Serafino Perugino, president of Frontiers Records—to prove his immense vocal talent, crafting an album of melodic rock gems!

SANTIAGO started as a guitarist and then became a singer, developing his skill primarily through practice and self-knowledge. Although he has received valuable advice and guidance from some experts, including Iván Sencion, his growth as an artist has been largely self-directed.

In 2020, as a result of a cover of Joe Lynn Turner's “Prelude/Endlessly” published on his YouTube channel, SANTIAGO began to catch the attention of some players in the global melodic rock scene. Guitarist Stuart Smith (Heaven & Earth), whom the label has a long relationship with, shared SANTIAGO's YouTube videos with the label.

'The Walls Are Crumbling Down' is a solid album, showcasing songs with big choruses, a wide range of vocal arrangements, and SANTIAGO's tone—striking a perfect balance between vocal extension and a warm, bluesy digression (with “Blue Heart Of Stone” being a clear example)—alongside amazing guitar work by Suraz Sun, guitarist for Girish And The Chronicles.

Describing the album, RAMONDA added:

“This album is a battle cry for all those who love rock and refuse to let it die. With this album, we want to keep the flame of classic hard rock alive and take it to new places. For all those fighting to keep the spirit of rock alive, this album is a message of hope and resilience. And to see my name on that banner is a dream fulfilled, an honor that drives me forward with passion and dedication. I especially want to thank having had the opportunity to work with Alessandro Del Vecchio, a great honor for me that has enriched this project in an invaluable way. We will keep on rocking, and with you, we will take it to the top again!”

Songs like “The Walls Are Crumbling Down” and “Don't Look For Love” are just a taste of the many great tracks featured on the album!

Killswitch Engage Drop "Aftermath" Video — WATCH // Summer of Loud Tour Kicks Off This Weekend

Killswitch Engage  Jesse Leach, vocals; Adam Dutkiewicz, guitar; Joel Stroetzel, guitar; Mike D'Antonio, bass; and Justin Foley, drums — released their latest album THIS CONSEQUENCE on February 21, via Metal Blade. Get it here. The album arrived alongside a hugely successful Winter/Spring 2025 tour, yielded a Top 10 single with "I Believe," and landed the band on the covers of Revolver and Outburn.

The album was another reminder of why KsE, who have earned several gold and platinum certifications alongside three Grammy nominations, remain one of the most enduring bands of the modern metal scene.

Today, the band proudly shares the evocative video for "Aftermath." For this video, KsE collaborated with some of the world's leading environmental groups to highlight damage being done to Earth and things we can all do to help stop it.

Watch the video, produced and directed by Good Eye: Music Visuals Below:

"'Aftermath' is a song about the realization of a tragic event or a war, and the strength it takes to rebuild and the hindsight of the loss, betrayal, and madness that transpired while going through it all," Leach explains. "I think we can all relate to this in one way or another. We see daily the tragedies of humanity as well as the destruction of a place we call home. We have taken so much from our planet and ripped the scales in the incorrect direction."
 
The singer continues, "This song is not just a desperate song with a sense of sadness and anger — it is a call to arms. I'm urging my fellow humans to rise above the helplessness and despair. I want people to see we need to put one foot in front of the other and start to rebuild our lives. Be it from an abusive relationship, a financial hardship, a death of a loved one, or mourning yet another disaster unleashed upon the natural world."

Leach finishes, "We all have power to create change. To me, this works perfectly with the various organizations we partnered with for this video.

Chicago's PUSH PUPPETS share cosmic brilliance on 'Launching a Satellite', showcasing new LP

Chicago indie pop-rock outfit Push Puppets presents 'Launching a Satellite', a dramatic epic about insecurity that evolves as it goes. This is the latest gem from their fourth multifaceted album 'Tethered Together', newly released via Flowering Tree Music. With dynamic choruses that offer stark contrast to the quieter more exploratory sections, it ends with stunning interplay between the string quartet and electric guitar.

Based in Chicago, Push Puppets creates songs with earworm melodies and shiny production that belie often-bittersweet sentiments. This is the creative outlet for singer-songwriter and guitarist Erich Specht (lead vocals, guitar), who is joined by a core of Steve Frisbie (backup vocals, guitar), Kyle Magnusson (keyboards), John William Lauler (bass) and Greg Essig (drums).

This astral-themed video was pgeroduced by Scott Thiele and Sebastian Gonzales. with video editing and animation by Tcomas Studio. Push Puppes are joined by a string quartet, comprised of Stephanie “Sly” Young on violin, Katherine Andrick on viola, Molly Rife on cello and Kelly Jozwiak on violin (note: Janis Sakai performs in the audio recording).

"It was fun to see this song fully realized with the string quartet adding so much.  While performing live, I would typically play the instrumental section on guitar imitating violins.  So it was exciting to adapt it to a real string quartet while still keeping some room for lead guitar," says Erich Specht.

"This album offers a nod to the artistic excesses of the 70s, whether it's a wall of phased vocals or a moment where guitars and strings rip a quick line together between phrases.  The tracks are widely varied yet cohesive - and within a given song, you're likely to be taken elsewhere."

Produced by Doug McBride (Smashing Pumpkins, Veruca Salt, Silversun Pickups, Cheap Trick) and Erich Specht, ‘Tethered Together’ was mixed and mastered by Doug McBride at Gravity Studios in Chicago. Most of the songs on this album also involve a string quartet, with a horn section on one.

This record is graced with impeccable songwriting that shines with lush harmonies, angular guitars, dramatic keyboards and strings backed by a smoking rhythm section. Erich Specht muses on relationships and loss, as well as the weight and joy of life, in a manner that is poetic and seems effortless, his lyrics fitting to the melody like pieces of a puzzle. Wearing his vulnerabilities like a badge of honor, this music takes us on a journey to unexpected places.

Kicking off with the arena-rocking anthem ‘Similar’, which explores universal connections, and 'Hearts Aren’t Souvenirs', 'Probably' offers a poignant tribute with a dramatic string-laden conclusion. The superb 'All Together On 3' builds progressively to a cathartic blend of live strings and desperate vocals, highlighting the strength found in unity.

The album continues its sonic journey with the dramatic and evolving 'Launching a Satellite', culminating in a striking interplay between strings and electric guitar. 'This Whole Endeavor' hooks the listener with a memorable piano riff while recounting the ebb and flow of a past relationship. A lighthearted interlude arrives with the retro rocker 'Tell Colleen to Calm Down', followed by the Spanish-tinged inhibition-shedding 'Shake It Like You Mean It'. The album delves into the pain of lost love in the Americana-influenced 'Hearts Are Fragile' before reaching a powerful and dramatic conclusion with 'The Logical Conclusion', driven by intense strings and piano.

The 'Tethered Together' album is out now, available on CD, digitally on fine digital platforms. It can be obtained in either format directly from the artist via Bandcamp

Incite "Savage New Times" set for release on August 15, 2025,

Phoenix-based groovers and thrashers INCITE present their most ferocious incarnation in the forthcoming full length, Savage New Times set for release on August 15, 2025, via Reigning Phoenix Music. A powerhouse of modern thrash metal, Savage New Times encapsulates the pure nature of INCITE instilled with their unyielding drive and years of dedication to honing their sound. 

Ever since the beginning, INCITE have been fiercely devoted to crafting their distinctive sound, and making their mark. Since 2009's debut, The Slaughter, each subsequent release demonstrated the band's unceasing efforts as each offering sought to push their own personal creative boundaries ever further. Beyond the studio walls, the live stage is at the heart of INCITE. Ruthless touring schedules have seen the band sharing stages with the likes of DEVILDRIVER and SIX FEET UNDER, and attaining sets before crowds at festivals such as Bloodstock and Heaven and Hell. Their journey has taken INCITE tread across continents - far reaches around the globe from audiences in Russia and Australia, to festivals in South America. 

The band's line-up is a testament to their success. Band founder and frontman Richie Cavalera, as the stepson of metal legend Max Cavalera, brought not just a legendary name, but a fresh, raw edge to his vocals that quickly became key to the band's signature sound. Members Lennon Lopez on drums and EL on bass have been instrumental in shaping the band's rhythmic backbone for over a decade. Now, in this next chapter, new guitarist Layne Richardson brings a dynamic and fresh input to both the creative process and live stage. 

A formidable sonic force in the thrash metal scene, INCITE's fierce and unforgiving music not only continues to prevail but is elevated through their growth. INCITE will stop at nothing in striving to attain their most powerful version of themselves, and in Savage New Times they present a truly impressive and visceral sound. From the monumental pace of the album's aggressive opener "Lies" and the intense energizing rhythms of "Just a Rat" to the brutal groove driven "No Mercy No Forgiveness" and dark bloodthirsty title track, Savage New Times is a captivating display of power.

About INCITE:
Founded in Phoenix, Arizona, in 2004 by frontman Richie Cavalera, INCITE blends groove and thrash metal with a raw, relentless edge. With Lennon Lopez on drums and EL on bass, the band has honed its unyielding sound across multiple albums, evolving with each release. Their punishing intensity is amplified by producer Steve Evetts (THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN, HATEBREED and mixer Arthur Rizk (SOULFLY, MUNICIPAL WASTE), while striking artwork by Marcelo Vasco (SLAYER, KERRY KING) captures their ferocity. Known for their relentless touring, Incite has conquered stages worldwide, sharing bills with DEVILDRIVER and SIX FEET UNDER, and proving their grit—like driving 500 miles through a blizzard to make a show. The addition of guitarist Layne Richardson has injected fresh energy, elevating both their live performances and songwriting. With sheer determination and raw talent, Incite has carved out a place in modern thrash, dominating every stage with their unbreakable, unforgiving sound.

Bask Announce New Album 'The Turning'

Ever since they came rumbling down from the Blue Ridge Mountains, it was clear that Bask are cut from a different neck of the woods than their fellow Southern trailblazers.

"It's really exactly what you want from a musical artist", Heavy Blog is Heavy wrote about the band's previous album, "a group of people creating their own sound that isn't aping anyone".

The climb to reach album number four wound up taking the Asheville natives on one hell of a trip. But The Turning takes Bask's homebrewed Heavy Americana to a new dimension. While its lead single starts with boots firmly planted in familiar metallic pastures, "Dig My Heels" leaps into the great beyond thanks to a gentle nudge from the band's newest member.

"We've been through so many trials and tribulations together over the past five years", Bask says. "We were knocked down by COVID, then by Hurricane Helene. Seeing this album finally come to light is therapeutic for us. The Turning is Bask at our finest. It's our most cohesive and heartfelt effort, an ode to our mountain home in the sky".

Watch the video for lead single "Dig My Heels" Below:

The Turning comes out August 22, 2025 on Season of Mist.

To kick off this heavy and heady new frontier, Bask are touring the East Coast later this summer. Hear them play "Dig My Heels" and other songs from The Turning during the album's opening run out on the road.

The Turning 2025 East Coast Tour 
August 20 - Atlanta, GA @ 529
August 21 - Savannah, GA @ El Rocko
August 22 - Asheville, NC @ The Orange Peel
August 23 - Raleigh, NC @ Chapel of Bones
August 24 - Richmond, VA @ Fuzzy Cactus

August 28 - Searsport, ME @ Starboard Lounge
August 29 - Providence, RI @ Parlour
August 30 - Wallingford, CT @ Cherry Street Station
August 31 - Boston, MA @ O'Briens

For as long as they've been together, Bask have called The Land of the Sky home. "We've been a band longer than we've been with our spouses", says bassist Jesse Van Note. The Turning is still rooted in Appalachia's rugged terrain. The album was recorded at Echo Mountain Recording with producer and fellow Asheville fixture Kenny Harrington, who's also worked alongside Manchester Orchestra. "Dig My Heels" quickly settles into a sunbaked groove with riffs that are as chiseled as red clay. But once drummer Scott Middleton takes the reins, the band's new single bounds off in a proggier direction.   

"This song stemmed from Scott calling me out", laughs guitarist Ray Worth. Instead of following Worth's headbanging leads, the band let Middleton's sideways gallop be their guide. "There's nothing wrong with playing in 4/4", Middleton acknowledges, "but if you're not exploring, then you're missing out on a world of opportunity". As "Dig My Heals" rounds the corner into the chorus, what should appear but a country field of paisley countermelodies.

"We all like heavy music and half us grew up around folk and bluegrass", says vocalist and co-guitarist Zeb Wright, "but The Turningleans into that mix even further".

Jesse Van Note – Bass
Scott Middleton – Drums
Ray Worth – Guitar

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

Today, the Irish emo duo GREYWIND is excited to announce their cinematic new album,‘Severed Heart City.’ The album will be released on September 19th via FLG. Having heralded the start of a new era earlier this year with epic cuts, ‘Acid Rain’ and ‘I.K.A.M.F.’, the brother-sister duo have announced their second full-length alongside the release of another arena-ready anthem, which will also appear on the record, titled ‘Waterfall.’ The new single is accompanied by a music video, available below.

Guitarist Paul O’Sullivan comments:

'Waterfall' is about hopelessly wanting someone to love you, but getting absolutely nothing in return and waking up to the fact that they couldn’t care less about you. Recording this song felt like a massive moment in our career - it’s dark, cinematic, and has everything we love about music in it.”

Watch the Music Video for "Waterfall"

Stream/Listen to "Waterfall" 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.”

 

It’s no surprise to hear that GREYWIND are inspired by great emo pop originators like Jimmy Eat World, Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance, with the duo’s flair for the dramatic and knack for an earworm melody resulting in an album filled to the rafters with anthems. These are songs you can imagine ringing out from the biggest of stages and being sung back at the band by rapt audiences all over the world. Envelope yourself in GREYWIND’s ‘Severed Heart City.’
