BLAKE SHELTON CELEBRATES HIS 31ST NUMBER ONE AT COUNTRY RADIO WITH “STAY COUNTRY OR DIE TRYIN’”

Blake Shelton marks his 31st run to the top of the country airplay charts with his latest release “Stay Country or Die Tryin’” via Wheelhouse Records. This second number one from his BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville album For Recreational Use Only was written by Drew Parker, Graham Barham, Sam Ellis, and Beau Bailey. “Stay Country or Die Tryin’” serves as a gritty, high-octane anthem celebrating rural resilience and small-town pride.

“I’ve been around long enough to know you never take moments like this for granted, and a number one radio single is always worth celebrating,” says Shelton. “I love this song, and I’m so grateful the fans do too.  There’s no better way to kick off the Vegas residency on Thursday than with ‘Stay Country or Die Tryin’’ at the top of the charts.”

This week, Shelton is returning to The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, with eight performances scheduled from January 15 – 31, 2026.

“This time we’re gonna do it more country, with more cocktails, and probably make a few more questionable decisions. Let’s go, Vegas,” shares Shelton.

Tickets to the following eight shows can be purchased online at Ticketmaster.com/BlakeSheltonVegas, with all shows scheduled to begin at 8 p.m.

January 2026: 15, 18, 21, 23, 24, 28, 30, 31


Armed with 31 #1 hits—including his latest chart-toppers, “Texas,” and “Stay Country or Die Tryin’”— Shelton will unleash his signature, unmistakable and raucous energy on Las Vegas, guaranteed to bring the house down. Fans can expect a powerhouse set packed with fan favorites and music from his critically acclaimed album, For Recreational Use Only.

Post-Rock Trio Jagged City Share "Ocean East, Ocean West" Video

Post-rock band Jagged City, featuring Jake Woodruff (Defeater) and Carlos Torres (former touring member of Explosions In The Sky) have unveiled their new single "Ocean East, Ocean West." This is the second single taken from their debut EP, There Are More of Us, Always, to be released on January 30 via Pelagic Records.

Watch the visualizer Below.

Stream HERE.

There Are More of Us, Always is a bold collection that moves between spacious, melodic guitar passages and raucous, swelling climbs. With heartfelt, melodious songwriting, a diverse range of eclectic touches buried within, and eruptions of dense, layered sound, this record delivers wonderfully balanced compositions through raw and personal production.

The project began as a cross-continental art experiment between Woodruff and Torres. What started as a simple exchange of ideas quickly found real shape through collaborative composition and thoughtful arrangement. Early sessions with David Haik helped refine the song structures and drum frameworks, setting the groundwork for what would become Jagged City's striking debut.

"We wrote with pure instinct, just tried to add something new to a genre that we love. As we traded ideas, we took some left turns and incorporated elements that may be unexpected," commented Woodruff.

When it came time to record, scheduling issues led to an inspired change of plans. Urian Hackney joined the project both behind the kit and behind the board, engineering and performing the drum parts that propel the record. In two intense days at The Box studio in Burlington, Vermont, Jake and Urian captured the core of the album with an immediacy and urgency that remain audible in every take. 

Carlos recorded bass in Los Angeles alongside longtime musical colleague Michael James (Explosions In The Sky), while Jake added further guitar textures from his home studio, creating layers that thread the compositions together.

This debut is both a statement of intent and an open invitation: Jagged City offer music that rewards close listening and communal experience—an instrumental journey shaped by collaboration and a fierce commitment to feeling. While still post-rock, There Are More of Us, Always utilizes a diverse range of influence, giving a freshness to each uniquely realized track.

"This record is a product of collaboration and love and creativity - we hope it inspires people to be connected and think collaboratively and creatively together. That's the only way forward," concludes Woodruff.

JAGGED CITY ARE: 
Jake Woodruff — guitar
Carlos Torres — bass
Urian Hackney — drums & production
Featuring Takaakira Goto as guest guitarist on "Deluge in a Paper Cup"

The Intemperate Sons Release Cover of Julien-K's "Photo Voltaire" with Music Video via Frame|Work

The Intemperate Sons open 2026 with a powerful cross-genre collaboration, releasing their cover of Julien-K’s “Photo Voltaire”. The track mixes the band’s signature alternative hard-rock foundation with the dark, synth-driven atmosphere of the original, creating a fresh reinterpretation that highlights the strengths of both groups. The release features a special appearance by Julien-K’s Amir Derakh, whose production sensibilities and guitar work have long been central to the band’s influential sound.

 

Stream/Download "Photo Voltaire":

The Intemperate Sons release all their music through the Frame|Work record label at the direction of Amir Derakh and Ryan Shuck. All Intemperate Sons’ tracks are mixed by Amir Derakh at Synthicidein Long Beach, CA. 

 

The music video was shot at Hurricane Alley Live in Bossier City, LA.  It was edited by Keith Watson and shot by Daniel Dooley.  

WATCH "Photo Voltaire" - A Julien K Cover by The Intemperate Sons:

In the sweltering Dallas summer of 2019, before the onset of a global pandemic, The Intemperate Sons were born from blood, grit, and a shared obsession with the ghosts of alternative rock’s golden age. The Watson family—Keith on drums, Jake on guitars, and Max on vocals, guitars, and keys—joined forces with longtime friend and bassist Mark Marks to create a sound that’s equal parts searing riffs, haunting harmonies, and unapologetic soul. Think Alice in Chains’ brooding intensity, Stone Temple Pilots’ swagger, and R.E.M.’s poetic undercurrent, all filtered through a ‘70s rock haze that refuses to play it safe.

This isn’t just a band; it’s a family affair, where the unspoken bond between father and sons fuels every chord and lyric. Keith, a Dallas stage veteran, pens lyrics that cut deep—tales of regret, resilience, and the chaos of the human condition. Jake’s guitar lines, sharp yet soulful, weave narratives of their own, while Max’s voice carries the weight of a 25-year-old who’s lived a lifetime in his head. Mark, the groove-obsessed bassist, ties it all together.

The Intemperate Sons hit the ground running, catching the ear of rock heavyweights Ryan Shuck and Amir Derakh (Orgy, Dead By Sunrise, Julien-K), who signed them to their Frame|Work label in 2021. Even a global pandemic couldn’t derail their momentum—holed up in The Kitchen Recording Studios, they crafted their debut album, The Color Within (2022), with tracks like “Dust to Dust” and “Running Man”that pulse with raw emotion and retro grit. Collaborations with legends like Tony Franklin (Whitesnake, The Firm) on singles like “Running Man” and “Dust to Dust” and Derakh’s production on singles like “Game of Keep Away” and “Dark Day’s Night” featured on their second and highly successful album, Dark Day’s Night (2024) pushed their sound further, blending post-grunge edge with folk and hard rock undercurrents.

For fans of alternative rock, this band is a throwback and a revelation—a reminder of why you fell in love with the genre’s raw honesty and a promise that its spirit still burns. The Intemperate Sons aren’t chasing trends; they’re carving their own path, one riff, one lyric, one night at a time.performing tracks that scratch deep into the backbone of the human experience. There is no shortage of darkness in their writing style which has a retro vibe with many guitar driven tracks stacked on top of a groovy rhythm section. The heavier style fits perfectly with the two and three-part vocal harmonies that are a huge part of their overall sound. It has been said that musicians that are related form unique sounds and communicate on a frequency only they can understand. This frequency has become engrained in their songwriting, arrangements, guitar melodies and vocal harmonies. The band has been compared to Alice in Chains, Stone Temple Pilots, and even R.E.M.

The Intemperate Sons are:

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

Jake Watson (guitars, bass and backing vocals)

Keith Watson (drums, backing vocals)

Mark Marks (bass)

MØL RELEASE CATHARTIC NEW SINGLE/VIDEO 'CRUSH'

As Danish alt-metal visionaries MØL count down to the release of their eagerly awaited new album DREAMCRUSH on 30th January via Nuclear Blast Records, the band unveil 'CRUSH', a powerful new single that sharpens the focus on what promises to be their most immersive body of work yet. Arriving as MØL prepare to take DREAMCRUSH on the road across Europe and the UK throughout February, 'CRUSH' follows singles 'Garland' and 'Young', offering another glimpse into the emotional intensity that defines their new record.

Check out the video for ‘CRUSH’ Below:

Listen to 'CRUSH' here: https://moel.bfan.link/crush

Pre-order and listen to DREAMCRUSH here: https://moel.bfan.link/dreamcrush

Guitarist Nicolai Busse comments on the new single, "CRUSH encapsulates in many ways the dichotomy we as a band always have sought to balance, the journey between melancholy and jubilee, uplifting beauty and devastation. 

"It is a gradual change or undoing of the known over time. The gravitational push and pull between the individual and the world. An acceptance of the many grey days, the mundane. Right there in the embrace of the chaos within the nuances of blues and yellows - we might discover small hints of slow emerging greens. Of beginning growth.” 

With their third studio album now just weeks away, MØL continue to push deeper into their own creative world. DREAMCRUSH balances the band’s sharpest, most jagged edges with soaring alt-rock hooks, exploring the fragile space between dreams and reality and how aspiration can both carry us forward and slowly consume us. By weaving melody into even their most aggressive moments, MØL emerge with their most explosive, soul stirring work to date.

Following on from the critically acclaimed Jord (2019) and Diorama (2021), MØL’s latest opus sees their sound continue to evolve as they embrace new horizons - as a band and as individuals. Drawing on influences including My Bloody Valentine, Cocteau Twins and Smashing Pumpkins, the album explores recurring themes of belonging, resilience and finding home within oneself. DREAMCRUSH arrives with a renewed sense of confidence, acceptance and vigour.

Recording took place over several months in Frederik Uglebjerg’s Aarhus studio, allowing the band to shape the album gradually. Vocalist Kim Song Sternkopf explores his baritone register, delivering lyrics in Danish and English that reflect personal introspection and a revisitation of past events. Guitar solos by Nicolai Busse elevate the emotional journey, while abstract, Emil Nolde-inspired artwork by Daniel Owen at Nemesis Design (Sleep Token, Architects, BFMV, TesseracT) and photography by Rolf Meldgaard visually complement the album’s exploration of dreams, reality and emotional reconciliation.

Fans can soon experience the album live as MØL embark on a headline tour across Europe and the UK throughout February with support from Tayne and Cold Night For Alligators, promising shows that translate the album’s intensity into a visceral, unforgettable performance.

Comments vocalist Kim Song Sternkopf, "It feels incredible to bring DREAMCRUSH out into the world, not just through the record, but by stepping back onto stages across Europe and the UK. This will be our second headline run and it honestly feels like a new and thrilling chapter for us in MØL.

"The songs on DREAMCRUSH explore how our hopes and ideals can both lift us up and break us apart. Performing them live will be like tearing up that dream to the crowd, fragile, heavy and luminous all at once. 

"We’ve also been lucky to bring along two incredibly solid acts who embody that same spirit in their own ways: TAYNE, with their raw, industrial noise-pop energy and Cold Night for Alligators, who channel this beautifully intricate and emotional strain of alternative metal from Copenhagen. Together, we plan to bring you dynamic and compelling sets each night across Europe and the UK. We can’t wait to see everyone again!"

Alkaloid Release Classic New Version of "The Fungi From Yuggoth"

Even among progheads, Alkaloid are metal's maddest scientists. While testing the boundaries of extremity, the progressive death metal supergroup have explored what lies beneath the Antarctic crust and discovered a galactic civilization that ascends to god-like levels of domination. But on their upcoming live album, the band conduct a one-of-a-kind experiment that only a true maestro can perform. Bach Out of Bounds brings revered classical composer Johann Sebastian Bach in conversation with the heaviest of underground arts.  

Today, Alkaloid are releasing the third and final advanced single from Bach Out of Bounds. Even though the original proved to be a stroke of genius, this new classical version of "The Fungi From Yuggoth" emerges as a real live beast. 

"This performance captures the essence of Bach Out Of Bounds", says Morean, Alkaloid's chief composer. "'The Fungi From Yuggoth' is a pure death metal track, but this version is enhanced by five-string violin and cello with an extended improvisation section."   

Watch Alkaloid perform "The Fungi From Yuggoth" Below.

Vicious Rumors Announce U.S. 2026 Tour + Release "Abusement Park" Video

U.S. metal band VICIOUS RUMORS have released the video for "Abusement Park" today. The song is taken from the latest studio album The Devil's Asylum. 

Watch the video Below.

 

Founder and guitar player Geoff Thorpe says, "In your face! Catchy riffs! Blistering solos, with a heavy metal and punk rock attitude! The new Vicious Rumors single 'Abusement Park' from The Devil's Asylum album has the band at the top of its craft! The idea of a nightmare theme park gone horror that is 'Abusement Park' came together during a recording session for the new album with me and Jimmie Evans. 'Abusement Park' is the fourth single from our current album The Devil's Asylum.

"The song is one of many standout tracks on the album. Filmed on location in Germany, Sweden, Florida and Kentucky and edited by Ingo Spörl. We thought this song had great potential with its machine gun guitars and kick drums with a melodic and harmony filled chorus in true Vicious Rumors style...after being forced to push back the tours due to my broken shoulder the guys and I are looking forward to getting the band back on the road. So come and celebrate Heavy Metal with us performing classics, deep cuts and new album tracks live worldwide in 2026."

The Devil's Asylum was released on August 29 worldwide (except Japan) through Steamhammer as CD digipak, LP version, download, and stream HERE.

Capsize Share "Under a Hollow Sky" Lyric Video

In late 2025, Capsize announced their return with "The Fracture," their first release since signing to Roux & Ruin Records. 

The band drops another new track — this time with "Under a Hollow Sky." Watch the lyric video below.

"With the release of this new single, we're opening another window into what we've been building without revealing the full picture just yet," says singer Daniel Wand. "Cody Stewart (Falling In Reverse, nothing, nowhere) helped bring the production to the finish line on this one, and we're excited about where things are quietly headed."

After several years of sporadic single drops, Capsize fans can look forward to a new physical release, on deck for 2026, with more details to be revealed shortly. The next release will be the band's first since A Reintroduction: The Essence Of All That Surrounds Me, which arrived in 2016 via Equal Vision Records.

There is even more to come from Capsize.

The Veer Union Drop New Single

Canadian metalcore outfit The Veer Union return with their powerful new single "Venom In My Veins," offering another intense glimpse into their upcoming album Reinvention, set for release on February 20.
 

Driven by massive hooks, gritty guitar work, and the unmistakable vocal presence of frontman Crispin Earl, "Venom In My Veins" blends raw aggression with emotional weight. The track captures The Veer Union at their most focused and personal — balancing modern metalcore intensity with the band’s signature hard-rock songwriting, resulting in a song that hits hard while remaining deeply relatable.
 

Following a series of strong releases that have steadily shaped the narrative of Reinvention, the new single continues to underline the album’s core theme: transformation through adversity. Rather than reinventing themselves for the sake of change, The Veer Union refine everything that defines them — heavier, sharper, and more honest than ever before.


With Reinvention arriving on February 20, 2026, The Veer Union are building toward one of the most defining chapters of their career. "Venom In My Veins" stands as another clear statement of intent: this is a band fully in control of their sound, their message, and their momentum.

Lionheart Release New Album

California hardcore powerhouse Lionheart have officially entered full domination mode with the release of their new album Valley Of Death II, cementing one of the most aggressive and effective album campaigns modern hardcore has seen in years.
 

Musically, Valley Of Death II delivers exactly what its title promises. Crushing grooves, merciless riffs, and commanding gang shouts collide with an even darker, heavier, and more confrontational atmosphere than its predecessor. Serving as the long-awaited sequel to their 2019 fan favorite, the album finds Lionheart fully locked in, focused, and firing on all cylinders — a band that knows exactly who they are and how hard they want to hit.
 

Freshly released via Arising Empire, Valley Of Death II is not about reinvention, but escalation. One track after another underlines why Lionheart have reclaimed their position at the top of modern hardcore and why the response to this release cycle has been nothing short of overwhelming.
 

To complete this massive chapter, Lionheart will return to Europe in January 2026 for a huge headline tour, joined by hardcore royalty Madball, metalcore heavyweights Gideon, and German crossover force Slope.
 

From the first comeback blow to the final album drop, Lionheart make one thing unmistakably clear: this era isn’t about survival — it's about total domination.

ZP Theart (ex-DragonForce, ex-Skid Row) Has An Anniversary Gift for Fans

Iconic metal vocalist ZP Theart has officially released a special 20th anniversary cover of the power metal anthem "Through the Fire and Flames." Watch it below.

Commemorating two decades to the day since the release of the original recording, Theart describes the release as a heartfelt gift to the fans who have supported his journey since the 2000s.

For this project, Theart entrusted producer and multi-instrumentalist Syndrone with a full sonic overhaul. Syndrone provided the revamped core instrumentation, setting the stage for a masterclass in modern guitar. In a nod to the song's legendary difficulty, rising guitar stars Sophie Burrell and Bradley Hall deliver jaw- dropping guest solos, weaving their own technical fury into the song's framework.

"This song changed so many lives, along with my own, and I thought it was time to give it a proper re-visit," says Theart. "Working with Syndrone to modernize the sound while having Sophie and Bradley add their incredible styles was the perfect way to celebrate this 20 year milestone."

He continues, "Revisiting this song after twenty years is about honoring the incredible energy the fans have kept alive since the very beginning. I wanted to stay true to that spirit while also pushing the sound forward. Working with Syndrone, Sophie, and Bradley brought that same intensity, but with a new perspective for what comes next."

The anniversary single is available now on all major streaming platforms.

BLACK SEA OF TREES Announce New Single "Visions of A Crimson Moon".

Melbourne-based progressive metal band BLACK SEA OF TREES have revealed their new single "Visions of a Crimson Moon".

"Visions of a Crimson Moon" occupies a central position within this narrative. The song marks the first moment of uncertainty for the protagonist. A prophetic dream reveals a cosmic serpent and visions of a kingdom exposed under crimson moonlight. The landscape is shown as barren and built on destruction, with temples of bone beneath a sky dominated by a black hole. The vision introduces doubt that continues to shape the remainder of the album.

Musically, the track unfolds as a long-form progression defined by shifting dynamics and tonal contrast. Structured passages dissolve into atmospheric meditation before reforming into heavy, technical climaxes. Rolling percussion, layered guitars, and cyclical lead motifs establish a sense of motion and inevitability. A recurring note-bending guitar phrase introduces a circular, gravitational feel that becomes a key motif later in the album.

About BLACK SEA OF TREES:
Based out of Melbourne and Victoria in Australia, the progressive metal ensemble composes their music around the narrative of their releases. BLACK SEA OF TREES formed in 2018. The debut album, The Spiritual Beast, materialized in the spring of 2023. The band's forthcoming sophomore full-length is an exploration of spirituality, folklore and philosophy, with death metal, folk and ambient elements incorporated into the soundscapes. "A Red Dawn" marks the beginning of this next chapter for BLACK SEA OF TREES, introducing this next album's concept: the protagonist is chosen by god to overthrow an old kingdom in a spiritual revolution. It's a narrative that is heavily influenced by the Ancient Egyptian Pharaoh, Akhenaten and his life’s journey.

BLACK SEA OF TREES bring to life their themes and concepts through dark atmospheric tones, strong full voiced melodies, falsetto and deep growls. With songs ranging from intense 8-minute long walls of sound to 3-minute atmospheric/acoustic passages, BLACK SEA OF TREES draw inspiration from the likes of OPETH, KATATONIA, CULT OF LUNA, RUSSIAN CIRCLES, and KARNIVOOL. A wide array of styles is entwined into the outfit's distinctive and compelling sound. 

BLACK SEA OF TREES is:
Samuel Exton - Vocals/Guitar
Jan Schotting - Drums
Francesco Adami - Bass
Chris Schwinghamer - Lead Guitar

Black Veil Brides Kick Off 2026 with "Certainty"// New Song + Music Video Out Now

Black Veil Brides — comprised of vocalist Andy Biersack, guitarists Jake Pitts and Jinxx, bassist Lonny Eagleton, and drummer Christian Coma — are ushering in the new year with the release of their dynamic and emotionally charged anthem, "Certainty," delivered with a powerful music video.

The single will appear on the band's upcoming album — due for release via Spinefarm later this year — and is available now on all digital service providers HERE.

"The concept of 'Certainty' is central to this record and appears throughout the album," explains Biersack. "The song was inspired by the film Conclave, particularly its reflections on religious certainty and how rigid belief systems can become prisons of our own making. When certainty hardens, curiosity, growth, and the willingness to change become impossible. Much of today's political and social discourse exists inside these echo chambers of absolute belief, and that tension drives the narrative of this record."

To coincide with the release, Black Veil Brides have unveiled a striking new music video for "Certainty," directed by George Gallardo Kattah (Chelsea Wolfe, Maneskin) and filmed while the band was on tour in Colombia. Featuring stunning cinematography and an intensity reminiscent of an A24 motion picture, the video mirrors the song's themes. Further, it exemplifies the bold visual identity Black Veil Brides have cultivated throughout their career.

The music video can be seen below.

Biersack adds, "This was the final song written and recorded for the album. It started from an idea Jake sent over, and it came together quickly over the course of a few days. It felt essential both narratively and musically, capturing the overall tone of what we’re aiming for. The music video, directed by George Gallardo Kattah and his team in Bogotá, Colombia, is one of our favorites we’ve ever done. His interpretation of fear and pride as biblical twins is stunning, and the visuals are incredible."

More information on Black Veil Brides seventh studio album will be available soon.

Like their band name suggests, Black Veil Brides evoke transcendent visions of an impenetrable hereafter, intermingling with a steely focus on the dark passions and elusive mysteries of the here and now. A romantic fantasy first summoned in a small town by founder Andy Biersack – a creative who was fascinated with death rock, theatricality, and monsters (both real and imagined). It wasn't until moving to Los Angeles that the unstoppable force the band is currently became finalized. The band's (and its other members Jake Pitts, Jinxx, Lonny Eagleton, Christian Coma) Instagram and Twitter accounts command close to 12 million followers between them. The Phantom Tomorrow, the group's last full-length album, went to No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Hard Rock Albums chart. Their last single "Bleeders" — through their new label home Spinefarm — propelled them to the top of the Active Rock radio charts. In the hearts and minds of their fans, the band represents an unwillingness to compromise and a resistance to critics (personal and professional). Fueled by the same fire as the group's own heroes, the iconoclasts whose creative output, once dismissed, is now canonized. Now after 15 years of leading the BVB Army, the next phase of Black Veil Brides begins with a joyful "Hallelujah" and a definite sense of "Certainty."

Out Now From Redivider - Sounds Of Malice

REDIVIDER, a death metal band from Louisville, Kentucky, presents their debut full-length album Sounds of Malice, a concentrated expression of aggression, narrative depth, and old school brutality fused with modern execution. Formed in early 2021 by Jacob Spencer and Paul Nunavath, REDIVIDER was built with a singular intent: to write crushing death metal rooted in the atmosphere of the 1990s Florida scene while expanding on those foundations with contemporary precision and weight. Joined by Jake Atha and Alexander Farrington, the band forged their identity through live performance and focused songwriting, culminating in an album that reflects both their influences and their evolution.

Sounds of Malice opens with "Quartered and Devoured", a violent and immediate introduction to the record. The track pulls from Dungeons & Dragons mythology, portraying a ritualistic execution of a savage race by divine decree. The music is relentless and hook-laden, prioritizing tension, groove, and a sense of fury that refuses to let up. This track was chosen to lead the album for its visceral energy and capacity to immediately strike the listener.

The title track "Sounds of Malice" follows, drawing from a character created by Spencer for a campaign he never got to play. Told from the perspective of an evil wizard addicted to a substance called Liquid Pain, the song balances morbid fantasy with deeply structured guitar work. The dual solos from Nunavath are a highlight, combining melodic phrasing with unhinged dissonance. It is both personal and grotesque, a reflection of the band’s creative range.

"Shackled to Existence" is the album’s longest and most introspective piece. Originating from an idea by original drummer Tyler Lewis, it deals with the inevitability of death and the emptiness of existence. The track journeys through dynamic shifts, intricate harmonies, and a guitar solo that mirrors the emotional despair embedded in the lyrics. It showcases the band's ability to slow the pace without sacrificing impact.

In "Apocalyptic Waste", REDIVIDER offers their take on global ruin, inspired by the Book of Elder Evils from D&D lore. The song is structured to depict an unfolding disaster, beginning with chaos and closing in desolation. The drumming and riffing here lean into the modern death metal playbook while staying grounded in groove, reflecting both destruction and aftermath.

"Fratricide" continues the mythological thread, drawing inspiration from the Elder Scrolls universe. It recounts a cosmic battle between divine brothers over a goddess, resulting in the violent birth of existence itself. The music reflects that chaos through shifting rhythms and dissonant layers while still delivering heavy, crushing sections that ground the narrative in sonic weight.

"Bask in the Rot" moves into monster territory, a tribute to the Gelatinous Cube reimagined as a sentient mass of sewage and death. The band wrote the instrumental parts around Spencer’s vocal rhythm, resulting in a track that drags and smothers, matching the grotesque nature of the subject matter. Influenced by "Where the Slime Lives", it is slow, grinding, and impossible to ignore.

The album concludes with "Left to Rot", a hymn of devotion from the undead to Orcus, Lord of the Undead. One of the earliest songs written by the band, it encapsulates the themes present throughout the record. The arrangement grows from a heavy groove into a dramatic finale that resolves the tension built across the album. It is an appropriate end for a record that began with violent resistance to the gods and closes with a prayer for apocalyptic release.

Recorded at Round Table Recording Company and Michael Kent O’Bryan Studio, mixed by guitarist Paul Nunavath and mastered by Dan Swano at Unisound, Sounds of Malice captures REDIVIDER's live energy and commitment to authentic performance. The band wrote these songs with the stage in mind, crafting moments of impact, tension, and catharsis. Every song exists to be felt physically, with riffs meant to be remembered and choruses meant to incite chaos.

Though Sounds of Malice does not follow a strict concept, its cohesion comes from atmosphere and intention. From the first note to the last, REDIVIDER seeks to overwhelm the listener with stories of death, decay, addiction, ritual, and myth. The band channels their influences, from CANNIBAL CORPSE and MORBID ANGEL to DEATH and GORGUTS, not as a template, but as a foundation to build upon. This album is not a tribute. It is a statement of purpose. REDIVIDER has crafted a debut that is punishing, articulate, and unflinchingly true to the spirit of death metal.

About REDIVIDER:

REDIVIDER is a death metal band from Louisville, Kentucky, formed in 2021 by vocalist Jacob Spencer and guitarist Paul Nunavath. Joined by guitarist Jake Atha and bassist Alexander Farrington, the band draws influence from the early Florida death metal scene and bands like CANNIBAL CORPSE, MORBID ANGEL, DEATH, and GORGUTS. With a sound rooted in old school brutality and layered with modern aggression, REDIVIDER combines guttural vocals, dissonant riffs, and relentless groove to create music that is both violent and immersive.

The band made their live debut in 2022 and quickly gained recognition in the underground scene, sharing stages with acts such as CREEPING DEATH, CRYPTA, MASACRE, COGNITIVE, and SEE YOU NEXT TUESDAY. Their debut album Sounds of Malice is a conceptually rich, sonically punishing record that blends fantasy-driven storytelling with crushing heaviness. Written with live performance in mind, REDIVIDER’s music thrives on tension, rhythm, and unapologetic intensity, death metal built to be felt as much as heard.

REDIVIDER Lineup:

  • Jacob Spencer – Vocals

  • Paul Nunavath – Guitar

  • Jake Atha – Guitar

  • Alexander Farrington – Bass

  • Mike Hargrave – Drums (live)

Billy Morrison & Ozzy Osbourne Collector’s Edition Picture Disc Vinyl Now Available! ​  

TLG|ZOID proudly presents Billy Morrison and Ozzy Osbourne Collector’s Edition Picture Disc Vinyl, arriving , January 9th and distributed by Virgin Music Group. The limited-edition 180g picture disc—available now online and at local record stores—is designed as a true collector’s piece, worthy of framing and displaying like fine art offering a rare and visually striking keepsake that celebrates their powerful collaboration.

 

Further cementing its impact, “Gods of Rock N Roll” has earned major critical acclaim, landing on Loudwire’s Best Rock Songs of 2025 (Ranked) and being named a Top 10 Song of 2025 in Wall of Sound's Year in Review by Senior Writer Ranga Gareth Williams at #1. The track also secured a spot on Ultimate Classic Rock’s Top 10 Songs of 2025 list, and was included in Amazon Music’s Best of Rock 2025, underscoring its broad cultural impact and cross-platform recognition from both fans and tastemakers.

 

This stunning release brings together both smash hits, “Gods of Rock N Roll” (featuring Steve Stevens and a beautiful score by Fred Coury) and “Crack Cocaine" (featuring Steve Stevens), united on one brilliantly crafted, art-forward vinyl. The picture disc format elevates the release into a gallery-worthy keepsake—an item meant not only to be played, but cherished, displayed, and celebrated. 

 

The release carries historic significance, as these two tracks represent the final studio recordings from Ozzy Osbourne, transforming the picture disc into a definitive collector's piece—one that captures the closing chapter of an era in rock history.

 

Billy Morrison shares: “I feel so incredibly fortunate to have been able to work with my best friend on those last two songs, CRACK COCAINE and GODS OF ROCK N ROLL, that when the idea of a picture disc vinyl with all the versions on it came up, thanks to my guys at TLG |ZOID, I jumped at the idea. We already had the wonderful cover shots that our photographer, Jane Stuart, had taken throughout the process of both releases, and I remember as a kid just loving the idea of a vinyl record with images on the actual vinyl! It was a no brainer, and a truly wonderful way to close out that chapter with a tip of the hat to Ozzy and the two amazing songs that we did together. I will always be able to watch that video of GODS, when Steve Stevens and I are belly laughing with Ozzy in the studio and hold that close as a treasured memory.”

Billy Morrison, the British guitarist, singer, and songwriter is primarily known as Billy Idol’s rhythm guitar player for the past 15 years alongside lead guitarist Steve Stevens. His recent collaboration with Ozzy Osbourne and Steve Stevens, “Crack Cocaine,” soared to #1 on the Mediabase Active Rock Chart, further solidifying his place as a powerhouse in the rock world. The Morrison Project is a testament to his collaborative spirit and fearless commitment to creating boundary-breaking music that unites artists and genres in bold, unexpected ways.

NECRONOMICON EX MORTIS Return With “Left To Die,” A Gore-Soaked Death Metal Stomp

Death metal maniacs NECRONOMICON EX MORTIS are back in full blood-drenched form with their new single, “Left To Die,” a crushing mid-tempo bruiser taken from the forth coming EP Zombie Blood Nightmare, arriving February 20, 2026.

“Left To Die” is a straight-ahead stomp fest rooted in classic 1990s death metal, drawing clear influence from the pit-driving grooves of OBITUARY. Built on thick riffs and head-crushing momentum, the track culminates in a ripping end-of-song guitar solo from former MEGADETH shredder Jeff Young, adding a sharp flash of old-school virtuosity to the carnage.

Lyrically, “Left To Die” keeps things simple and gloriously vile. The song tells the story of being abandoned in a gore pit, surrounded by blood and guts and facing an inevitable end. No metaphors and no apologies. Blood and guts are fun.

NECRONOMICON EX MORTIS return with a fiery vengeance on Zombie Blood Nightmare, a new EP that finds the band at their most unhinged. Across six blood-soaked songs, the band pushes hard to recapture the glory days of 1990s death metal, blending horror, violence, and undead absurdity into a relentless riff-driven assault. This is NEM fully committed to terror, stupidity, and the raw spirit of the genre.

“Left To Die” serves as a blunt and bloody introduction to what Zombie Blood Nightmare delivers in full. Heavy, grotesque, and unapologetic.

Deathcore Act SARCOMA Unleash Video For "Ahora Voy Yo"

Ecuador's SARCOMA have unveiled the ferocious new single "Ahora Voy Yo" with an accompanying music video. The deathcore ensemble obliterates with unyielding heaviness, explosive riffs and brutal gutturals.

Released via Valley of the Death, "Ahora Voy Yo", which translates to "Now I Go", is the first single to land ahead of the bands forthcoming full-length album set to arrive later in 2026. 

"Ahora Voy Yo" addresses the issue of integrity. It forces artists to confront their egos and their authenticity. "The whole song revolves around the deep regret of long time procrastination and unbalanced ego, when confronted by the urge to prove oneself and grow as long as we live." The band explain. "All audio samples in the song come from 'Ratas, Ratones, Rateros', a hugely successful 1999 Ecuadorian movie, from director Sebastián Cordero. The spoken lines allude to a dead body, which in the lyrical setting is metaphorical, as an underachiever is better off dead."

The new single, "Ahora Voy Yo", produced by Juan Pablo Flores, was recorded at Valley of the Death recording studio, with mixing and mastering by Juan Pablo Rivas. 

About SARCOMA:
SARCOMA is the first Spanish-language deathcore band in the world. Formed in Quito, Ecuador, in 2006, the quartet launched their debut EP Silenciosa Tortura independently that same year. 2016 brought a hiatus until seven years later, in 2023, original members Santiago Romero and Juan Pablo Flores returned to write new music, now joined by Andrés Jaramo (drums) and Andrés Éguez (bass). 

During SARCOMA's first incarnation, following the first EP, the band released the debut, self-titled full-length album in 2008 with the Esclavitud del Siglo XXI EP arriving in 2013. The band embarked on a heavy national and international touring schedule in neighboring countries. 

SARCOMA's unmistakable style, technical precision, and impressive live performances led them to be considered, by the media and the public alike, as the undisputed "fathers of deathcore" in South America. In early-mid noughties, the band's unique mix of hardcore and death metal elements was something unheard of in the country at the time.

The band's sound draws influence from the likes of DECAPITATED, DYING FETUS, KNOCKED LOOSE, SEPULTURA, DESPISED ICON, GOJIRA, with the addition of progressive elements and a thematic focus on their life experiences and environment of Latin America.

2023 saw the band return with renewed vigor and intent unleashing the EP Mesak, the live releases Al Rojo Vivo and En Vivo En Quito in 2024, and "Divino Poder" single in 2025, all via Valley of the Death. SARCOMA wasted no time returning to the live stage in 2023 venturing on the Mesak Ecuador National Tour, along with performances at Mechanimal Fest and Quitofest. 

Mayhem Drop "Life Is a Corpse You Drag" Video

Mayhem, the defining pioneers of black metal return with their seventh studio album, Liturgy of Death.

With this release, Mayhem further solidify their standing as one of the most unyielding forces in extreme music. Now more than four decades into their career, they turn their focus toward the unavoidable presence of mortality.

Liturgy of Death explores the philosophy of mortality with stark, uncompromising clarity. The album presents death not as an ending, but as a universal law that touches all life and exposes the fragility of human existence. This impermanence becomes a call to live with full intensity, for every gain and loss ultimately falls back into the same silence. Echoing ancient philosophies, the album portrays life as a transitional state and death as a gateway to a higher form of being, while the solemn, dark beauty of death permeates the entire work.

Stream new single "Life Is a Corpse You Drag" HERE.

Mayhem's Attila comments on the new track, "'Life Is a Corpse You Drag' is not a slogan, but a ritual and a realization. It names an ancient law: Consciousness as burden, the body as vessel, faith as a seal on a grave already closed. There is no comfort in this recognition but there is release. If we have been dead all along, there is nothing left to lose. What remains is pure energy: Movement without fear, presence without compromise, a victorious march into the final destruction."

Pre-order Liturgy of Death HERE.

With Necrobutcher, Hellhammer, Attila, Morten Bergeton Iversen, and Ghul locked into a unit tighter than ever, Liturgy of Death celebrates Mayhem's own legacy, a continuation of the raw and uncompromising sound that defined their beginnings. The result is a merciless record — dark, fast, and unrelenting — that captures the band in their most dangerous and vital form. 41 years since their formation in Langhus, Mayhem remain a defining force in Norwegian black metal, continuing to shape the sound they helped create.

MAYHEM LINEUP:
Attila — Vocals
Ghul — Guitar
Hellhammer — Drums
Necrobutcher — Bass
Morten Bergeton Iversen — Guitar

Status Quo's Francis Rossi Shares Double Single "Push Comes To Shove + November Again"

Francis Rossi kicks off 2026 in emphatic style with two brand-new songs, released as a digital double single and taken from his long-awaited new studio album The Accidental, out January 30.

"Push Comes To Shove" bursts with energy, grit and Rossi's unmistakable guitar sound, while "November Again" turns a melancholy refrain into a soaring, catchy chorus. Both tracks capture the founding Status Quo frontman in full flow: Confident, energized, and recalling the sound that made him a cornerstone of British rock.

The Accidental was born from spontaneous studio sessions with guitarist Hiran Ilangantilike and co-producer Andy Brook, resulting in a vibrant album that sounds immediate, alive and free of expectations.

Together, with the previously released tracks "Something In The Air (Stormy Weather)" and "Go Man Go," the new songs "Push Comes To Shove" and "November Again" set the tone for what promises to be one of Francis Rossi's most exciting solo releases to date.

The Accidental finds Francis Rossi once more at the top of his game, delivering a searing yet thoughtful collection of rockers that will please anyone who likes their heavy cut with melody and verve.

"For anyone who liked any of my solo albums previously," says Francis Rossi, "… well, I've no idea what you'll make of this one because it's a real departure, but I love it. It's loud, the guitars are right to the fore, and there are some great songs there."
