From Fall to Spring Announce "Entry Wounds" Out 9/26 + Share "BLOOD"

FROM FALL TO SPRING are lead by twin vocalists Philip and Lukas Wilhelm. The German outfit forge a sound that's as unmistakable as it is uncompromising — a fusion of post-rock atmospheres, hip-hop-infused grooves, soaring hooks, and the sheer weight of metalcore's punch.

After their debut RISE racked up over 20 million Spotify streams, the band now steps into a darker, more introspective realm with their sophomore record, ENTRY WOUNDS, out September 26 via Arising Empire. Pre-order it here
 
Where RISE looked outward, ENTRY WOUNDS turns its gaze inward.

"Our debut record was all about our interactions with the world and different kinds of people," the band explains. "ENTRY WOUNDS, on the other hand, is an inward journey. It deals with personal struggles and self-development."

Each song on ENTRY WOUNDS is a fragment — a scar carved by memory, a flash of clarity amidst the static. Together, they weave a slow-burning narrative of letting go, reclaiming control, and finding the courage to heal. Before even announcing the album, the band dropped five singles in album order — "CAST AWAY," "CONTROL," "COME ALIVE," "TAKE THE PAIN AWAY," and "I WON'T BACK DOWN" — each capturing a distinct emotional phase of the story. Those tracks alone amassed over 5.5 million Spotify streams already, proving the resonance of FROM FALL TO SPRING’s message long before the full picture is revealed.
 
The newest single, "BLOOD," acts as a turning point — and the official start of the ENTRY WOUNDS era. It's a reminder that this is more than music; it's a coded transmission from within the system, a place where trauma collides with the digital and the personal bleeds into the synthetic.

The system is active. The cloud is open. The world is not ready.

BAEST Launches Visualizer for New Song, “Depraved World," New Album 'Colossal' Out Now

Danish death metal commando BAEST is now celebrating the release of its fourth studio album, 'Colossal,' which is out now, via Century Media Records! The band is also now sharing a visualizer with animation by Frederik Birn for the album’s closing track, “Depraved World," which can be found below.

BAEST comments, “Lo and behold! Our new album ‘Colossal’ is out now. We’re proud of this one and we’ve been working hard to reach this outcome. And the title says it all - it’s grandiose, it’s epic and it’s COLOSSAL!”

Produced by Tue Madsen at Antfarm Studio (Heaven Shall Burn, The Black Dahlia Murder, The Haunted, etc.), the album contains nine tracks across 42 minutes, including the already released singles "Colossus" and "Imp Of The Perverse," as well as an upcoming single with guest vocal features by Jesper Binzer of D-A-D on “King Of The Sun."

'Colossal' is now available to order, stream, or download HERE.

Are you ready to rock? Something colossal is coming…

Baest are back, with a new sound and a badass attitude. Over the last decade, the Danish quintet have become one of the most celebrated and respected death metal bands in Europe. Their reign of terror began with debut album Danse Macabre, which emerged to great acclaim in 2019. Since then, the Danes have been relentless. Subsequent albums Venenum (2019) and Necro Sapiens (2021) cemented their reputation as extreme metal mavericks with an ear for lethal hooks, while their passionate dedication to playing live enabled them to spread the word at shows and festivals around the world. 

But things are slightly changing with album number 4: Colossal. Pieced together in the aftermath of Covid lockdowns, and fine-tuned over the last couple of years, the new Baest album is an absolute monster. The new songs are still rooted in the belligerent death metal that informed previous records, but Colossal represents a wholesale transformation. Inspired by and infused with old school, classic metal riffs and a giant helping of rock ‘n’ roll bombast, Baest have written an album that delights in the glory of heavy metal and the fine art of rocking out. Bursting at the seams with catchy riffs and classy melodies, with stylistic salutes to everyone from Ozzy Osbourne and Dokken, through to Iron Maiden and Whitesnake, this is the magnificent rock ‘n’ roll rebirth of Baest.

Boston alt-rockers BURN KIT releases 'Looking Through The Window At You' single & 'Split' 7" vinyl with Turquoise -

Boston alt-rock outfit Burn Kit presents their new single 'Looking Through The Window At You', a grungewave tune that bonds together influences of alt-rock, post-punk and grunge rock.

Burn Kit is a five-piece band comprised of vocalist Valentino Valpa, guitarist Joshua Sawhill, guitarist Frank Nordaby, drummer Andrew Mattern with bass duties split between Padraic McGuire (touring) and Christopher Belmonte (studio recordings).

Formed in 2024, their music channels a hardcore energy with a sound that is both nostalgic and refreshing. They wasted no time, their first year seeing them complete five tours involving 138 shows in 38 different countries, not to mention the recording of 'Demo Tape', a handful of singles and their most recently-release - their debut 'Fallen Rose' EP.

Apart from being released digitally, 'Looking Through The Window At You' is one side of Burn Kit's new 'Split' 7", a double A-side single with Chicago band Turquoise. Each of these tracks is exclusive to this one-off limited edition black vinyl with 270 copies pressed. 

"The song 'Looking Through The Window At You' confronts the always-known locked door that exists within all human minds. The fact that no person truly fully knows one another. There are always things we are thinking, things we won’t say and appearances we keep up admist our automation of modern daily living," says Valentino Valpa.

Turquoise's contribution to this double A-side single is 'Oblivious', a driving indie-punk anthem that channels a 90s alt-rock vibe sprinkled with a Hüsker Dü influence. Effortlessly striking a balance between muscled-up hardcore indebted riffs and soothing, textured melodies, 'Oblivious' appears as the band gears up for an album release. With Burn Kit also approaching their sophomore EP, the stars aligned perfectly to offer these two one-off tracks to their growing audience.

The seed for this 7” release was planted when Turquoise played a Chicago hardcore basement show with Burn Kit vocalist Valentino’s previous project. The two stayed in touch and once Burn Kit formed, this idea could finally become reality. Recorded and mixed in March-April 2025 by Ryan Stack at The Electric Cave in Portsmouth, NH, 'Looking Through The Window At You' was engineered by Marc McElroy and mastered by Dan Coutant at Sunroom Audio in Cornwall, NY.

Burn Kit live shows are known for their intensity and unpredictability. Frontman Valentino Valpa has been known to frequently dive into the crowd, climb various structures (both inside and outside the venue) and even make his way to other buildings in the middle of a song. Whether it’s stretching a 100-foot mic cable to end up on the roof of an adjacent building while still singing, climbing the staging at a Mexican festival, or performing the song from a tree, Valpa's unpredictability has led to many to describe Burn Kit as “something you have to see live to fully experience”.

Accompanied by songs that invite both catharsis and chaos, this unique bond of energy and mutual understanding with the audience has led Burn Kit to unite a tight-knit group of friends and fans in DIY scenes across the world. Creating an experience that cannot be conveyed via the internet, they remind listeners of our true human nature and the importance of connecting with one another.

As of August 12, the 'Split' 7" can be ordered on vinyl via Bandcamp. 'Looking Through The Window At You' itself can also be found there digitally, as well as other music platforms, including Spotify and Apple Music. Burn Kit is touring the USA in September and touring Europe to the end of the year.

RYLAI Drops Alternative Indie-Pop Single “Fall For You” — Two Years in the Making

Rising alternative and indie-pop artist RYLAI just released his new single, “Fall For You,” a track that leans into the rock realm and showcases a process that took over two years to complete. This marks his second single since debuting this past June, following “Without You.” Built from the ground up as a passion project, “Fall For You” is a true grassroots production. RYLAI not only directed the entire production but also laid down many of the song’s core elements himself. Four musicians, from three different continents, came together to bring it to life: RYLAI and Liner from Korea, Dylan from America, and Faekt from Hungary.

The track is filled with rich guitar layers: Dylan contributed acoustic textures and atmospheric effects, Faekt handled the overdrive guitar (including a bold double-octave technique), and Liner delivered the bulk of the remaining parts, even coming up with melodies for sections like the intro, outro, and Verse 3. RYLAI himself added additional guitar layers and took charge of comping, timing, and producing the final parts.

Instrumentation didn’t stop there; the song uses two different basses (Faekt and Dylan split duties), Moog-driven synths, re-recorded drums (with some demo elements surviving the final cut), and massive vocal stacks that ballooned to 92 tracks by the end. Faekt also directed standout moments like the crowd vocals and harmonies, while RYLAI handled the intricate ad-libs, background vocals, and vocal production, with Colby fine-tuning the crowd vocals and doublings.

The result? A track that feels alive: raw, layered, and deeply collaborative. “Fall For You” may not have a major label machine behind it, but it’s the kind of record that reminds listeners what can happen when passionate artists from around the world come together with nothing but their love for music. As RYLAI puts it: “Four guys, three continents, two years, and one song we poured everything into. Will the world feel what we felt making it? I guess we’re about to find out.”

Stream “Fall For You” HERE

MORE INFO:
RYLAI
is a rising singer-songwriter and producer born and raised in Seoul, South Korea. His passion for music began in the quiet aftermath of a pivotal moment at the end of sixth grade, when he started exploring melodies on an old digital piano that had sat untouched for years. Though he had taken piano lessons as a child, it wasn’t until then that he truly connected with music — creating original ideas that gradually turned into songs.

Influenced by a wide range of artists, RYLAI draws vocal inspiration from Naul of Brown Eyed Soul, whose emotional head voice and rich chord progressions left a lasting impression. He also cites Ado for her unparalleled vocal intensity and expressiveness, and Seo Tai Ji, a Korean pop-rock icon known for his genre-bending approach to music. Kendrick Lamar remains one of RYLAI’s biggest influences — both for his lyrical depth and for the way each of his albums tells a cohesive, meaningful story. Inspired by that model, RYLAI’s own music follows an overarching narrative, with each release revealing a new chapter.

Fermentor - Agreement: Out NOW!

FERMENTOR’s latest sonic experiment, Agreement, drops August 15th, 2025. This 17-track instrumental album concludes a trilogy of improvised releases, following Mind Meld and Release MeAgreement pushes their boundary-defying blend of blistering death metal and sprawling, freeform post-rock to new extremes, delivering cinematic brutality and storytelling without words through instinct-driven chemistry.

The album opens with "Wintry Earth," a bleak, droning descent marked by jagged time signatures, eerie guitar textures, and a brutal death metal finale that sets a tense, violent tone. "Whisper Flesh" follows, a raw improvisation where dissonant loops and jagged grooves shift between blast-heavy death metal and crushing, groove-laden choruses, spiraling into ritualistic heaviness.

"Dead Farm" and "Ceratops" offer contrasting explorations of heaviness. "Dead Farm" channels the primal force of SEPULTURA, seismic pulse of GOJIRA, and progressive sludge of MASTODON with groove-driven intensity. Meanwhile, "Ceratops" unfolds slowly from meditative calm into a cathartic, tectonic climax, showcasing the band’s dynamic range from muscular aggression to patient build.

"More Than Eight" dives into FERMENTOR’s signature improvised chaos, layering guitar loops instinctively over shifting rhythms. "Ghost Girl" ventures further into experimental territory, blurring meditative post-rock and thunderous groove metal with spiraling solos and ethereal textures.

"Roach God" captures raw vulnerability through imperfect, high-wire improvisation where mistakes become defining characteristics - an authentic snapshot of risk and discovery. "Rotted" is a relentless, riff-driven brutal death metal descent, free of loops and culminating in a monstrous breakdown forged in pure instinct.

"Deactivated" builds angular chaos with dissonant grooves, shifting time signatures, and a searing solo, exploding into a triumphant finale. The title track "Agreement" is a study in tension and release, layering palm-muted guitars over hypnotic loops, culminating in a crushing halftime outro, a seismic exhale of raw improvisation and controlled chaos.

"There With That" blends cinematic instincts and epic metal grandeur, balancing atmosphere and intensity with emotional clarity. "Human Caterpillar" immortalizes a glitching guitar pedal feedback during an improvisation, turning technical failure into a chaotic, avant-garde Easter egg and a tongue-in-cheek highlight released on April Fools’ Day.

"Transgression" blasts with thrash-rooted energy, tight cymbal chokes and groove-drenched riffs channeling the band’s early chemistry and old-school aggression. "Hides Behind Hands" offers a rare breath of melancholic reflection, trading brutality for beauty through shimmering loops and restrained percussion, inviting pause and introspection.

"Protohuman" is a kaleidoscopic hybrid of swirling loops, jagged rhythms, and pulverizing eruptions that merge FERMENTOR’s death-thrash roots with fearless experimentation. "Skybeam" unleashes a deafening blast of explosive energy, a chaotic tempest signaling the album’s climax.

Finally, "All Ashes" winds down with reflective melodies and subtle textures, a sonic exhale that gathers Agreement’s sprawling journey into a poignant, meditative farewell.

Agreement stands as a bold testament to FERMENTOR’s fearless embrace of improvisation, raw emotion, and genre-defying exploration. Through blistering death metal, expansive post-rock, and moments of beautiful imperfection, the album captures a journey of friendship, risk, and creative discovery. It invites listeners into a world where chaos and control coexist, forging a powerful, unspoken narrative that lingers long after the final note fades. This is more than an album. It is an immersive experience that challenges expectations and redefines the boundaries of instrumental music.

FERMENTOR is:

  • Dylan Marks - Drummer

  • Adam "Wally" Wollach - Guitarist

ABOUT FERMENTOR:
FERMENTOR is a San Diego-based two-piece instrumental metal band formed in 2008 by drummer Dylan Marks (ATHEIST, BEEKEEPER) and guitarist Adam “Wally” Wollach (BEEKEEPER, TRASHAXIS). Stripping away the comforts of a traditional band infrastructure, FERMENTOR relies solely on communicating through only two elements; drums and guitar. The two instruments acting more like contrapuntal voices, rather than just rhythm and melody.

Their musical chemistry was discovered in the summer of 2008 when the two cousins took advantage of an opening at Wollach’s recording studio. Having never collaborated before and with only four weeks to write and record, they created their first EP entitled Matanzaa.

PARADISE LOST DELIVERS GOTH METAL MASTERPIECE 'TYRANTS SERENADE'

Legends of doom, PARADISE LOST have debuted their riveting 3rd single ‘Tyrants Serenade,’ a 4+ minute goth metal opus of epic proportions and bleak new staple in the band’s celebrated catalog. The standout track is found on their eagerly awaited album Ascension, out September 19th from Nuclear Blast Records.

Giving context to the song, vocalist Nick Holmes says:

"Observing the death of an individual, and subsequently, how the transition of seasons evokes fond memories. The God of Malevolence serves as an internal voice to dismantle those cherished memories and reintroduces the initial anguish of loss."

On one of their boldest singles to date, PARADISE LOST meld crunchy riffs and soaring guitar melodies with juxtaposing anthemic clean and harsh vocals. The memorable new track is accompanied by a stunning video directed by longtime collaborator Ash Pears (HOST, BLOODBATH, KATATONIA).

In celebration of the new album, PARADISE LOST has also announced a handful of intimate signing sessions and a record release show in Leeds, UK. Tickets are available now at https://tix.to/Ascension.

Sep 20 - Sheffield, UK @ Bear Tree (4PM BST) - Signing Session

Sep 21 - Birmingham, UK @ HMV (2PM BST) - Signing Session

Sep 22 - Leeds, UK @ Brudenell Social Club (7PM BST) - Record Release Show

Sep 24 - London, UK @ Rough Trade East (12PM BST) - Signing Session

Pre-order Ascension: https://paradiselost.bfan.link/ascension

‘TYRANTS SERENADE’ MUSIC VIDEO BELOW.

PARADISE LOST’s first album in 5 years, following 2020’s critically acclaimed Obsidian, was produced by guitarist Gregor Mackintosh and mixed/mastered by Lawrence Mackrory. Ascension is a testament to the band’s longevity and relevance over their 35+ year career, encompassing their signature styles of gothic, death and doom fans have cherished along the way.

Ascension’s album cover fittingly features the painting The Court of Death (1870-1902) by renowned British artist George Frederic Watts, which hangs in the Tate Gallery in London. The painting depicts Death as an enthroned angel flanked by allegorical figures of Silence and Mystery guarding sunrise and the star of hope, while a warrior surrenders his sword and a duke his coronet, showing that worldly status offers no protection. The painting’s bleak, prophetic vision embodies Ascension’s dark, tormented soundscapes as mournful verses collide with dire, foreboding riffs.

Commenting on the record, Holmes states:

"Ascension is a cavalcade of molten misery, a vigorous sorrow filled stroll through a wicked world of glorious triumph and pitiful tragedy."  

PARADISE LOST will embark on the first leg of the “Ascension of Europe” tour this fall. Tickets are available at https://paradiselost.co.uk/tour-dates/.

About PARADISE LOST:

More than three decades into their career, and with over two million albums sold, PARADISE LOST remain the undisputed kings of metal’s dark side. Formed in Halifax in 1988, the band quickly became noted as the pioneers of gothic metal through their early groundbreaking albums like 1991’s aptly-titled Gothic, a mixture of heaviness intertwined with shadowy melody and atmosphere.  

Never a group to remain creatively static, across their career they’ve explored a myriad of avenues of dark music, from sludgy doom-death roots, to conquering the metal mainstream with the enormous, lush sounds of 1995’s Draconian Times, to more experimental, electronic leanings, leaving an influence on a trail of artists as varied as CRADLE OF FILTH, HIM, GATECREEPER and CHELSEA WOLFE.  

Now, in 2025, the Yorkshire quintet return with their staggering 17th album, Ascension, a record that sees their crown continue to gleam as it underlines just how they attained their position. Produced by guitarist Gregor Mackintosh at Black Planet studios in East Yorkshire, with drums and vocals captured at NBS and Wasteland studios in Sweden, its 10 tracks traverse the multitude of sounds in the band’s arsenal, from full-bore heavy metal to sky-high melody, all the while keeping a minor-key melancholy that remains irresistible.

Blackened Death Metal act THE NOCTAMBULANT Unveil "Hell Ride - The Second Death"

Drawing from the raw bloodlines of blues, rockabilly, goth rock, and American country, Florida's THE NOCTAMBULANT throw open the doors to the void in their new single "Hell Ride - The Second Death". Following their 2021 release “Hellrazor” and European tour with HATE and VADER, THE NOCTAMBULANT return having solidified their distinctive approach.

Smoke and fire choke the air as an unnamed preacher leads his flock—not to redemption, but into the jaws of the abyss. In "Hell Ride - The Second Death" Hammond organs shriek like wounded spirits, sermons curdle into threats, and guitars hammer the final nails into coffins of false hope. Here, salvation is a lie and belief is a death sentence.

Watch the video Below.

About THE NOCTAMBULANT:
In 2013, THE NOCTAMBULANT formed in Jacksonville, Florida, with a mission to spread the culture of Southern Appalachia through their unique interpretation of black metal. Merging the genre’s primal aggression with the crushing weight of blackened death metal and the haunting atmospherics of Southern Gothic, they sought to honor the myths, spirits, and eerie folklore of the region.

Founded by E. Helvete (Guitars, Vocals) and D. Franseth (Drums) following the breakup of their psychobilly band, THE NOCTAMBULANT emerged as they delved into the darker realms of black metal. With the addition of Lars Goerschafft (Bass) and, later, Rev Beaumont (Guitar), the band fully embraced a sound that merges relentless intensity with ghostly Appalachian storytelling, crafting an auditory spell of sorrow, brutality, and mysticism.

Their music weaves a sonic tapestry of feral blackened riffs, ominous melodies, and immersive soundscapes steeped in spectral Appalachian lore. Drawing inspiration from metal legends such as VENOM, CELTIC FROST, BATHORY, and DARK FUNERAL, THE NOCTAMBULANT channels both ferocity and haunting atmosphere, merging the unrelenting force of extreme metal with the ghostly echoes of ancient myths and the desolation of the Southern Gothic landscape. Their next album is set to emerge in 2026.

THE NOCTAMBULANT is:
E. Helvete - Guitars/Vocals
D. Franseth - Drums
Lars G - Bass
Rev. Beaumont - Lead Guitar

CORONER Announces New Album 'Dissonance Theory,' Unleashes Music Video for First Single, "Renewal"

After more than three decades, Swiss technical thrash pioneer CORONER will be releasing a long-anticipated studio album, 'Dissonance Theory,' on October 17, 2025 via Century Media Records! Pre-orders are now live HERE.

To celebrate the forthcoming opus, the band is now unleashing the ferocious first single, "Renewal," along with a music video! The clip was directed by Dariusz Szermanowicz and can be found below.

 

Coroner’s guitarist, songwriter, and producer Tommy Vetterli comments on the new music, “I thought a lot about what Coroner should sound like today, but I pretty quickly realized that looking backwards wouldn’t serve us. Of course, over time you develop a certain signature as a musician. So even if the material is new, it might still feel like a bridge to earlier phases - simply because it’s me writing it.

"That said, we didn’t set out to continue a legacy. We just wanted to create something honest and grounded in the present. ‘Renewal’ now opens the chapter for what became the first Coroner album I’m fully satisfied with, start to finish. So we’ll let the music speak for itself - you’ll know if it speaks to you.”

'Dissonance Theory' contains ten new songs across 47 minutes, recorded by Tommy Vetterli at New Sound Studios in Switzerland and mixed/mastered by Jens Bogren at Fascination Street Studios in Sweden (Opeth, Kreator, Amon Amarth, etc.).

The album cover artwork was created by Stefan Thanneur.

'Dissonance Theory,' in totality, is rich in sonic detail, a stereophile’s delight. Part of that can be attributed to the expert mixing/mastering by Jens Bogren at Fascination Street Studios in Sweden. But the production, arrangement and soundscape details are largely the work of Vetterli and a longtime creative partner at his own New Sound studio. Vetterli notes, “At some point, I felt something was missing — a kind of creative counterweight. Someone to reflect things back with a fresh, critical ear. That’s when I brought in a longtime collaborator I’ve worked with for years at my studio. He helped push things into new territory and gave me the clarity and momentum Dissonance Theory needed to move forward. We made a point throughout the production to record as many authentic, organic sounds as possible. The studio was packed with tube amps, analog synths, and vintage instruments — including a harmonium and a grand piano — and we put them all to good use. We've worked together on many other productions, so the trust was already there. We get into that whole collaboration — and how it evolved — more deeply in the CD mediabook edition.” 

Coroner are offering a work that proves they know themselves and what their band should sound like. No Coroner fan could possibly be disappointed in Dissonance Theory. It’s like a massive bonus from a band we all thought had spent their creative energies decades ago. “They don’t make albums like this anymore”. Ever heard that one? Coroner proves they were not only always in metal’s top tier, but that anything less than a ferocious return such as this would never have been the Coroner way. 

Lineup:

Ron Royce - Bass/vocals

Tommy T. Baron - Guitars

Diego Rappachietti - Drums

Recording: Tommy Vetterli at New Sound Studios in Switzerland

Mixing + Mastering: Jens Bogren at Fascination Street Studios in Sweden

Morgan Wallen Foundation Celebrates Re-Opening of Historic Parkwood Ballpark

Morgan Wallen, through his Morgan Wallen Foundation, along with Major League Baseball & MLB Players Association Youth Development Foundation (MLB-MLBPA YDF) and other local funders, partnered with Habitat for Humanity of Greater Nashville to unveil the newly revitalized historic baseball and softball complex, Parkwood Community Club, in north Nashville on Wednesday (Aug. 13). The renovation project for the ballfields includes new field turf, Musco lights, fences, dugouts, scoreboards, parking, concrete and roadways for two youth fields.
 
The project has been a two-year-long effort following MWF’s $500k donation in 2023. This ballfield renovation is part of a broader community effort led by Habitat for Humanity, which encompasses the creation of a 59-acre Metro Park and the construction of 26 Habitat homes.
 
“Growing up, I spent countless hours out on the diamond. Those hours taught me life lessons I still hold close today and helped me realize the value baseball can have on youth,” said Wallen. “Being a part of this project and revitalizing these Parkwood fields - right here in Nashville - to ensure the kids have a place to play for many years to come is something I am really proud of.”
 
“Revitalizing these ballfields was a massive team effort led by Habitat for Humanity of Greater Nashville, and we couldn't be more thrilled to see them in fighting form for hundreds of kids to enjoy and play ball. It's a dream come true,” adds Kathleen Flaherty, Executive Director of MWF. “This was the foundation’s first field restoration grant and we couldn’t be happier with the results.”
 
To commemorate MWF’s donation, two of the fields have been named in Wallen’s honor: Boots Field, named after his Mamaw Boots, who he was extremely close to; and Norris Field, named for Norris Lake in Norris, Tennessee, where Wallen spent time growing up.
 
The Parkwood Community Club has produced notable athletes, including Mookie Betts and Golden Tate. It was the site of Nashville’s first integrated baseball games in the 1970s, and in the 1980s, Parkwood became Tennessee’s first athletic club to be owned and operated by a minority Board—one of only five in the U.S.
 
This year, the revitalized fields inspired three Parkwood teams to reach state competitions. Several teams competed in the Dixie Youth World Series, including The Parkwood All Stars, who placed third out of 42 teams.

Exposure to music at a young age has led him to become the artist, songwriter and entertainer he is today. MWF is also committed to being there for communities in times of need. Whether it’s providing supplies in the wake of natural disasters, meals for first responders, distributing groceries to food insecure families, we are there to help. Wallen donates a portion of every concert ticket sold to MWF.  More information at www.MorganWallenFoundation.org.

BBR MUSIC GROUP/BMG NASHVILLE ANNOUNCES THE SIGNING OF UNDERGROUND RECORDING ARTIST ATLUS

BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville adds Atlus to its roster, an artist that came up through the underground and has now amassed over a billion on-demand streams. Anchored by self-penned viral hits, a platinum single, four independent studio albums, national touring and a fan base that has grown into the millions across social platforms, Atlus’ BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville/Stoney Creek Records debut “Devil Ain’t Done,” is out today. Listen Below.

Over infectious grooves & melodies, the former truck driver's lyrics in “Devil Ain’t Done” reflect themes of self-doubt & perseverance. Grappling with relatable struggles that so many empathize with, this new track expands on the singer-songwriter’s mission to make music that is both universal and uniquely him.

“I believe that everyone runs into the devil at some point in their life, and sometimes it's the devil in your mind and sometimes it's the devil in your hometown. And where I grew up, he drove a nice car, had fast cash in his pockets, pills in the glove box, and he lived in the trailer next door. I spent most of my life avoiding that devil,” explains Atlus. “Life is much better now, but the devil can find his way into any room.  I just remind myself to keep being a good person and not give into the temptation.”

Written by Atlus, David Garcia (who also co-produced the release with Andrew Baylis) and Geoff Warburton, “Devil Ain’t Done” marks a new chapter in the groundswell of his career.

"Every time we introduce Atlus to someone new, there is an instant and passionate connection,” says BMG America’s President, Frontline Recordings Jon Loba. “He is a true poet, who powerfully and intimately chronicles the very real struggles and tragedies of life in a way that still leaves hope for a better day.  While his journey and sound are specific, we have found that, even inside the label, he connects across age, gender and musical taste in an incredibly universal way. We could not be more excited to partner with him and his team in championing his music across the globe!"

“Music has always been personal to me. Everything I write either helps me work through something or tells a real story from my life,” states Atlus. “The industry default is ‘It’s not personal, it’s just business.’ But that’s never been true for me, and from day one [Jon] Loba, JoJamie [Hahr] and everyone at BMG have shown it’s never been true for them either. It’s clear we are truly on the same page. It IS personal and that is the way we do business.”

About Atlus:

Raised in a single-parent home marked by poverty and addiction, Atlus had to grow up fast, building incredible resilience and laying the foundation for a life rooted in the search for authentic relationships and honest storytelling. Phonetically named after the mythological Titan who held up the heavens, Atlus wrote his first two (of four) albums while working as a commercial driver behind the wheel of semi-trucks, using the long, lonesome miles of highway to craft lyrics and workshop melodies as he drove countless hours to help support his family and fund studio time.

That pavement-pounding lifestyle became both his education and his engine. Over time, it helped grow his underground following and ultimately led to breakout moments like performing alongside Jelly Roll at a packed Red Rocks Amphitheatre in his home state, and landing a Top 5 album on Spotify’s Global Album Chart, along with a Platinum single. The magic of Atlus lies in how he marries candid, arresting, and often dark subjects with a kaleidoscope of sound. His music blends multiple styles into something fresh and immersive, anchored by storytelling that creates a deep community with his fans. Now with over a billion on-demand streams and two million followers across socials, Atlus continues to build his career on real connections and tenacity. He’s holding up his musical dreams in support of his family and anyone who turns to music as an outlet for their own struggles. Signed to BBR Music group/BMG Nashville, his debut release on the label, “Devil Ain’t Done” is available now HERE.

Atlus is represented by co-managers Shawn McSpadden (Range Media Partners) and Matt Wallace/Andrew Perlowich(Wardog Mgmt), CAA for booking, and FBMM Entertainment Business Management.

Disciples of Verity Release New Single "In My Eyes" + Lyric Video via TLG|ZOID ​   

Disciples of Verity, fronted by the iconic singer Corey Glover of Living Colour, have unleashed their brand-new single, “In My Eyes,” along with an accompanying lyric video. The track is available now via TLG | ZOID, with distribution through Virgin Music Group.

 

The track is the latest preview from their highly anticipated sophomore album, NEXUS, produced by George Pond and co-produced by Sahaj Ticotin (RA).

 

Corey Pierce states, “'In My Eyes' is a song about the ways our personal and shared perspectives shape how we interpret life’s daily struggles—both the ones we face now and the ones we hope to avoid in the future. It speaks to the deeply personal battles we experience, the hopes we hold for ourselves and our loved ones, and the vision of a better future we long to see realized. At its core, the song is about finding unity, empathy, and closure by learning to see the world through the eyes of others. 'In my eyes' is a way of illustrating our need for partnership and community through shared experiences.”

 

"In My Eyes" is now available on all major streaming platforms, and the accompanying lyric video can be viewed below

 

STREAM "In My Eyes"

https://tlgent.ffm.to/dov-inmyeyes

Fueled by an insatiable urge to create and collaborate, this heavy metal incarnation seeks to challenge all that they believe to be true with their project, Disciples of Verity (DOV). The band features heavy-hitters such as Corey Glover (Living Colour), Corey Pierce (God Forbid), George Pond (Negative Sky, Swim The Current), Mark Monjoy (Sekond Skyn), and Zack Miranowic (Sekond Skyn, Riversend). This all-star band unleashes an onslaught to the senses with a new sound that can only be described as “a new breed of crossover Metal.”

 

The band formed just over four years ago after mutual projects brought the five members together. With Pond as the common denominator, having played with each of these artists throughout his career, his songs with Corey Glover were quickly embraced by the others, which evolved into their debut album, Pragmatic Sanction.

 

Over the next eight months, DOV feverishly cranked out eight heavy, hook-laden songs with one distinct element—their infectious, melodic grooves. Ranging from Hardcore, Metalcore and even Active Rock, the band knew that their debut would be like nothing else in the industry and brought in a veritable “who’s who” of the hard rock and metal industry to up the ante.

 

Four years have passed since the release of their first single from Pragmatic Sanction. However, now comes the dawn of a new age. They have been quietly working on 12 new tracks for their sophomore album titled NEXUS. The band worked with producer Sahaj Ticcotin, who has worked with Starset, Motley Crue, RA, Bad Wolves, and many more.This monster of a record is set to be released in 2025 through TLG/ZOID, and distributed through Virgin Music Group.

Heavy Act BEAST EAGLE Launch "The Dead Follow"

Taking flight with their new single "The Dead Follow", Nebraska's BEAST EAGLE provide a distortion fueled morsel of their approaching EP Sorceress. Mesmerizing groove riffs and enchanting vocals await in this magical manifestation. The release is set to be unveiled on November 21st, 2025, via Golden Robot Records. 

The band comments on "The Dead Follow"

"'The Dead Follow' crashes open with thunderous riffs and a restless pulse, telling the story of a witch awakening to her power just as the world around her begins to unravel. As spells come easier and fire dances at her fingertips, everything she once knew feels distant—twisted, unfamiliar. The track channels that disorientation into raw, driving energy, blending mysticism with rebellion. It’s a gritty anthem for anyone who’s ever grown into something stronger and stranger than the world was ready for."

About BEAST EAGLE
Soaring out of Omaha, Nebraska, heavy quartet BEAST EAGLE evoke a powerful take on hard rock driven by rock 'n' roll sensibilities. Influenced by the likes of KYUSS, HE IS LEGEND, and MASTODON, the band's huge sound is spearheaded by a fury of riffs and unyielding vocals. Since forming in 2019, BEAST EAGLE unleashed their first full length Loud at Flat Black Studios in 2021 with the self-titled EP following in 2023. Most recently, BEAST EAGLE were bestowed the title of Omaha Entertainment Award Association Best Hard Rock Band 2025. The forthcoming guitar-led, blues influenced offering, Sorceress is set to be unveiled on November 21st, 2025, via Golden Robot Records.

Savage Hands Blaze Into A New Era With "Trust Issues"

Maryland's unflinching alt-metal bruisers, Savage Hands, are storming into their next fierce chapter and unleashing their seismic new single, "Trust Issues". Fans can listen to "Trust Issues" HERE.

Kicking down the door to a new era, Savage Hands deliver "Trust Issues", a blast of grit, adrenaline, and the kind of vulnerability that you scream rather than whisper. With this brand new track and their current US run with metalcore titans Attack Attack!, the band are hungrier, angrier, and more self-aware than ever. Careening between glitchy chaos and anthemic melody, the band aren't simply stepping up, but daring the rest of the scene to keep pace.

Currently charging across the U.S. in support of their recent singles, Savage Hands open up about the start to this pivotal new era:

"Honestly, this song is exactly what we are about. We got to write it with a huge idol of ours (Aaron Gillespie) and we were stoked for the opportunity to be able to collaborate and make something so true to our roots.

Armed with their searing new single, "Trust Issues", Savage Hands are hitting the road for Attack Attack!'s monstrous ONE HIT WONDER Tour, alongside fellow metalcore pit-starters Versus Me. Fans can purchase tickets to the ONE HIT WONDER Tour now HERE.

Guided early on by multi-platinum producer Andrew Baylis (Jelly Roll, Sleeping With Sirens, etc), Savage Hands have sharpened their craft into a volatile blend of ominous atmosphere, sledgehammer riffs, and skyscraping choruses. A hybrid sound that dissolves the lines between post-hardcore, metalcore, and alternative rock, all while hitting with precision and purpose.

Propelled by the success of previous singles, "Demon", "Washed Away", and "Halo", the quintet have been in constant forward motion since their 2018 debut, amassing over 55 million streams along the way. From steely Maryland roots to festival stages, Savage Hands' relentless drive has shaped a sound that thrives on the collision of chaos and catharsis bleeding into one another. With their latest releases, "Trust Issues", "Reload Repeat", and "Trace Erase", Savage Hands are opening the door to a new chapter, one that's heavier, sharper and more unapologetic than anything that's come before.

Be sure to stay tuned for more Savage Hands news coming very soon.

ABOUT SAVAGE HANDS

From day one, Savage Hands have had a razor-sharp, singular focus on who, and where, they want to be. Founded in 2016 in Waldorf, Maryland, the group, under the tutelage of multi-platinum producer Andrew Baylis (Jelly Roll, Sleeping With Sirens) have become staples in the heavy music underground thanks to a series of SharpTone Records releases – 2018’s Barely Alive, 2020’s The Truth In Your Eyes and 2023’s Rock Bottom – that have showcased their punishing blend of post-hardcore, metalcore and alternative rock. Their music is pressure-cooker dynamism careening through airy choruses, crushing drops and hard-charged lyricism, a sound they’ve brought to stages from coast to coast with the likes of D.R.U.G.S., Magnolia Park and While She Sleeps through their fiery, raved-about live show.

And now the band – Mike Garrow (vocals), Justin Hein (guitar), Nathan O’Brien (bass), Alex Gacek (drums) and Jayvon Green (guitar) – are entering a brand-new era of evolution with “Reload, Repeat” and “Trace Erase,” a double single produced by Jonathan Dolese (D.R.U.G.S., Downswing) that doubles down on the maximalist blend of styles and influences that have brought them here. The breakdowns are more thunderous than ever, the skittering beds of electronics more pronounced and Garrow’s coarse-throated roar more harrowing as he details letdown, backstabbing and family trauma – a sonic car crash brought to life three minutes at a time.

AURI - Release Their Enchanting New Album "III - Candles & Beginnings" Today!

Today marks the highly anticipated release of III – Candles & Beginnings, the third studio album from AURI — the visionary musical collaboration of vocalist Johanna Kurkela, Nightwish keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen, and multi-instrumentalist Troy Donockley.

With III – Candles & Beginnings, AURI once again open a portal to an otherworldly soundscape where folk, progressive rock, symphonic textures, world music, pop, and avant-garde elements entwine. At the heart of the album lies Kurkela’s ethereal voice, soaring across lush sonic landscapes crafted by Holopainen’s emotive keyboard playing and Donockley’s eclectic instrumentation.

This new release is a tapestry of emotion and imagination, where each track tells its own story — from nostalgic reflections to deeply personal experiences.

Coinciding with the album’s release is the launch of the third single, 'Blakey Ridge', accompanied by a brand-new lyric video. Joyful and transportive, the track pays tribute to The Lion Inn at Blakey Ridge, a historic and beloved pub nestled in the remote beauty of the North York Moors — a personal haven for the band.

Troy Donockley comments: "Can the remote, isolated, back of beyond feel like home? Is the middle of nowhere the middle of everywhere?

The sun is setting.

The moon is rising.

The night is coming.

The Lion is waking...

We'll meet you up on Blakey Ridge."

III – Candles & Beginnings is not just an album; it’s a journey to be felt with the senses, a sanctuary for dreamers and seekers alike.

LORNA SHORE’s “Prison Of Flesh” Single & Music Video Out Today, From New Album ”I Feel The Everblack Festering Within Me” Coming Sept 12;

Lorna Shore’s latest single “Prison Of Flesh” (out today) is one of the metal band’s heaviest to date, fueled by vocalist/lyricist Will Ramos’ raw feelings about his family’s history with dementia and the toll it takes on the person and those around them. See the explosive music video for the track, directed by David Brodsky (My Good Eye: Music Visuals), Below.

 

Says Ramos of the deeply personal new track, “This song is exactly what I imagine a lot of people expected of us to put out. We took all the heaviest stuff we had to create this incredibly dark, high-stress/tension song. I personally think the breakdown at the end of this is one of my favorites that we’ve ever written and I’m excited to see how people engage with this one.”

 

Ramos adds, “The lyrics for this song are about my family and our history of dementia. The idea that the world is falling apart, and about the fear of losing touch with reality. ‘They’re coming to get me’ is my way of personifying ‘demons’ or something that makes you feel like you’re losing pieces of yourself. The closer they get, the further detached you become until you’re nothing but a husk of fear and delusion.”

 

“Prison Of Flesh” follows the release of “Oblivion” and “Unbreakable,” all hailing from the band’s upcoming album I Feel The Everblack Festering Within Me, out September 12 via Century Media Records. As Lorna Shore’s fifth album and the first in three years since 2022’s explosive Pain Remains, it continues the band’s reputation as one of the most impressive extreme metal acts to emerge in recent memory.

 

The quintet, also including lead guitarist Adam De Micco, drummer Austin Archey, rhythm guitarist Andrew O'Connor and bassist Michael Yager, have hit the viral Spotify charts, racked up hundreds of millions of streams, embarked on highly successful tours and in the process, galvanized a significant fanbase that hangs onto the band’s quest for stylistic inversion. But by virtue of physical onslaught and wanting to divine truth from their music, Lorna Shore have kept themselves fired up by torching the metal rulebook at every turn, practically demanding that other genres step up their game.

 

I Feel The Everblack Festering Within Me will be available in multiple formats including digital, CD and limited-edition vinyl variants. Fans can pre-save the album HERE and find their preferred physical and digital retailer HERE. There’s also a brand-new merch collection, available HERE.

Lorna Shore will bring tracks from I Feel The Everblack Festering Within Me and other hits on the road beginning September 17, joined by The Black Dahlia Murder, Shadow Of Intent and PeelingFlesh in a tour produced by Live Nation. Tickets are on sale now.

Hunter Oliveri Shares Visualizer for New Single "Make U Cry"

Hunter Oliveri, the Gen Alpha talent who has been steadily buzzing and creating a name for himself since his early teen years, will release his debut album TEEN SLUG on September 19 via Spinefarm. Pre-order it here

Today, he drops the visualizer for "Make U Cry."

Watch it below

The song is, in its simplest form, about the dish best served cold — revenge.

Oliveri, whose early single "Kids" was tipped by Pigeons + Planes, crafts songs that channel the alternative and grunge blueprint of his musical heroes — like Chris Cornell and Soundgarden, Billy Corgan and the Smashing Pumpkins — imbued with the playful opaqueness of Kurt Cobain's lyricism and the easy slacker hooks of Weezer. His music speaks to the messiness of growing up. It sounds exactly like that, too. He simply writes what he knows. 
 
There are songs about partying too hard and songs about loving too much; songs about last night's headrush highs and the morning-after's anxious comedown. There are songs for when you seek the comfort of relatability, and there are songs for when you want to simply say "fuck it all." They are the product of the humble authenticity of someone who's grown up in a place no different to a million others the world over. Most have never heard of Paso Robles, CA, and might never again. There's sunshine, strip malls, and vineyards that outnumber venues 10 to 1, where the nearby underground music scene of San Luis Obispo a few miles down the road is more accessible than anything resembling the bright lights of L.A. two hours to the south or San Francisco up north. "It's a boring city, but we make the most of it," Oliveri shrugs. "We'll go skating, or hang out and smoke. And anyway, it's fun to go moshing in someone's basement."
 
It's no surprise, then, that Oliveri is used to creating more interesting scenes than those that existed outside his window. As a kid, he would do so in the stories he dreamt up in his bedroom. "I like writing stories about worlds I'd want to live in," he says, "which made my own world seem so much bigger."
 
Such creativity inevitably morphed into songwriting in his early teenage years — though music had long since embedded itself within him. "I was probably four years old when I first heard 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' around my parents’ house," he recalls of music's omnipresence in his life. "I never knew the name of the song but every time I heard it, I'd be like, shit, it's that song. It would give me this majestic feeling." He laughs that his mom holds a video recording of her son gamely plucking through a rendition of a Metallica song (it was the epic "One") at his Kindergarten graduation performance. His dad — an avid fan of Korn and Tool — meanwhile tells him that his parents met at Woodstock; not the peace-and-love of Woodstock '69, but, more aptly, the confusion-and-chaos of Woodstock '99.
 
A chance meeting at age 14 with a local producer's father while in a coffee shop with his grandpa was the first domino to fall in Oliveri's music story. The rest is a history still to be written. "I've been so incredibly lucky, but I've manifested this, too," he says. "I've always known writing music would be my life. I just had to make it happen. It was hard to find kids around my city that played instruments and wanted to be in a band, but I've been writing songs every day in my bedroom since I was maybe 13 years old. It takes me to a different place."
  
"I want to bring people into my world through my music," he adds. "I want people to feel something when they listen to my music, and to relate to me, and for me to be a friend and an outlet for them."

He's figuring the rest out as he goes... so come along for the ride!

Myles Morgan Signs with WME for Global Representation

Rising country artist Myles Morgan has signed with WME, the world’s leading entertainment agency, for global representation across all areas.

A Birmingham, Alabama native, Morgan blends heartfelt storytelling with Southern grit and charm. Morgan builds a grassroots following by playing bars and festivals across the Southeast, including performances at Flora-Bama, Iron City and the Carolina Country Music Festival. His self-penned songs “Nobody’s Fault But Yours” and “Jon Boat or a Yacht” have earned over a million streams, with more on the way as he readies his debut EP.

“Signing with WME is a dream come true,” shares Morgan. “I’ve been grinding it out on the road and in the studio, and to now have a team behind me that believes in where I’m headed – it means everything. I’m just getting started.”

“Myles has that winning combination of authenticity, work ethic and natural talent that resonates immediately,” adds WME’s Kevin Meads. “He’s already built something special from the ground up, and we’re thrilled to be part of the team helping take it to the next level.”

Morgan recently took the stage at Losers during CMA Fest 2025 and released “I Still Got It” in advance of his debut EP, which will arrive later this year.
