Bull Y Los Búfalos Release New Single + Video "Ghost" via TLG|ROCK, Distributed by Virgin Music Group

Bull Y Los Búfalos are turning up the heat with the release of their new single and official music video “Ghost,” available now via TLG|ROCK, distributed by Virgin Music Group. The track marks the first single from the band’s forthcoming album, Full Tank of Courage, due January 2027 on CD, vinyl, and all major streaming platforms.

 

For the “Ghost” video, Bull Y Los Búfalos went straight to one of cinema’s most iconic locations. The video was filmed primarily at the legendary cemetery in Spain where Sergio Leone’s classic Western The Good, the Bad and the Ugly was filmed, giving the visual a sweeping, cinematic atmosphere that perfectly complements the band’s larger-than-life sound.

 

“Ghost” introduces audiences to the next chapter of Bull Y Los Búfalos, the Nashville-based rock band fronted by Spain-born singer/songwriter Diego “Bull” Avello. Standing 6'6" and bringing a larger-than-life presence both onstage and off, Bull combines the grit and swagger of American rock and roll with the fire and passion of his Spanish roots.

 

The result is what the band calls “Stubborn Rock.”

 

Stubborn Rock isn’t a genre. It’s a takeover. Bull Y Los Búfalos aren’t coming. They’re already here and they play to win. Rock and Roll is for the brave.

“Ghost” arrives as Bull Y Los Búfalos enter a major new era. The band recently signed with TLG|ROCK in Nashville, Tennessee, with distribution through Virgin Music Group, and has completed a new album recorded in Nashville. Full Tank of Courage is poised to be the band’s most ambitious and powerful work yet, with additional music and videos set to follow.

 

But the story behind Bull Y Los Búfalos extends far beyond music.

 

FROM A SMALL SPAIN MOUNTAIN TOWN TO THE AMERICAN DREAM

 

Diego “Bull” Avello’s journey from a small mountain town in Spain to the American rock-and-roll scene is the subject of the upcoming music documentary I TOOK THE ROAD LESS TRAVELED.

 

Filmed across the United States, Mexico, and Spain, the documentary chronicles Bull’s pursuit of the American dream, the challenges encountered along the way, a difficult immigration process, the sacrifices, struggles, friendships, and rock-and-roll lifestyle that shaped his journey.

 

The film is currently making its way through the 2026 film festival circuit and has already earned four awards, with additional festival submissions underway.

The documentary offers an intimate look at the man behind the towering stage presence and the philosophy that drives Bull Y Los Búfalos: never quit, never compromise, and keep moving forward.

 

ROCK & ROLL WITH A HOLLYWOOD CONNECTION

Three of the band's songs have been featured on FX Network’s Mayans M.C., the acclaimed Sons of Anarchy spin-off, giving their music exposure to a massive television audience.

 

The band has also established itself as a formidable live act, performing at NASCAR events in Nashville and Daytona Bike Week, Harley-Davidson events, biker rallies throughout the United States, and even an NBA halftime show for the San Antonio Spurs.

 

As a heavily supported Gibson artist, Bull Y Los Búfalos shared the bill at NAMM 2020 in Los Angeles with rock legends including Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, Slash of Guns N’ Roses, and Don Felder of the Eagles.

 

Internationally, the band has performed at major biker festivals throughout Latin America, including Mexico, playing for crowds of more than 25,000 people.

Their touring history includes closing out 2022 on the road with Ace Frehley of KISS, followed by 2023 dates with 38 Special and Anthony Gomes. In 2024, the band returned to the Midwest for additional dates with 38 Special as well as Lynch Mob.

 

ONE-OF-A-KIND ROCK & ROLL

 

Bull Y Los Búfalos have released three studio albums, multiple EPs and singles, as well as a live album capturing the raw energy of their performances.

In 2019, MXD MAG, one of Texas' leading rock publications, named Bull Y Los Búfalos Best Rock Band in Texas, while Bull was recognized as Best Rock Singer.

As an independent band, Bull Y Los Búfalos have accumulated more than 1 million music video views and 1 million Spotify streams, while their single “DINERO PRIMERO” made an impact at national Active Rock and Alternative radio through the LA Lloyd Rock 30.

 

Now, with the backing of TLG|ROCK, distribution through Virgin Music Group, strong support from Gibson, a new album, a documentary, and a growing international profile, Bull Y Los Búfalos are ready to take Stubborn Rock to an even bigger audience.

 

“Ghost” is only the beginning.

Bayside Share "Saddest Song" B-Side From "Premium Selections" EP

Since their 2000 formations, Queens punk rock icons BAYSIDE — Anthony Raneri (vocals, guitar), Jack O'Shea (guitar, vocals), Nick Ghanbarian(bass, vocals), and Chris Guglielmo (drums) — have been the purveyors of heartbreak that you can sing along and sink your teeth into. The Queens' 4-piece consistently craft perfect blends of gritty punk energy and razor-sharp pop hooks, giving the alternative world emotionally raw storytelling wrapped up in punchy catchiness that mirrors the chaotic world we live in.

This summer, the band has been issuing EPs curated and selected by a specific band member, complete with artwork designed by said member. Each collection also features a B-side from 2011's Killing Time that has never been digitally released and was only previously available via vinyl.

The fourth and final B-side is "Saddest Song," which lives on the Premium Selections collection, assembled by O'Shea.

Watch the visualizer Below:

"Saddest Song" is painfully gorgeous and begins with delicate acoustic guitar and Raneri's rich, immediately recognizable voice as he delivers a deeply personal story with the conviction of someone unafraid to put their emotions on full display. The song steadily builds before erupting into a powerful full-band crescendo, transforming its melancholy into something expansive, visceral, and cathartic.

"I remember the song being one that we had a hard time establishing an identity for on the record and it really just became a vibe or a mood," says O'Shea "Having a very intimate controlled verse followed by big crushing wall-of-sound part filled with dozens of layered parts gave this one its life."

Bayside kicked off the B-side and EP series with Anywhere But Here, curated by Guglielmo and featuring "Monster." Watch the visualizer here. They followed with Proxima Centauri B, assembled by Raneri and featuring "Battle Scars." Watch the visualizer here. Ghanbarian put together the Bark At the Moon collection, which featured "Don't Come Easy." Watch the visualizer here.

Bayside are currently on a headline run that kicked off September 15 in Fort Collins, Colorado and runs through October 10 in Louisville, Kentucky. Driveways and Grave Secrets will serve as support. Bayside will also appear at several festivals, including Warped Tour, Riot Fest, and more. All dates are below. Tickets and VIP packages are on sale now at this location.

Having toured the world multiple times over, sold thousands of albums, and amassed millions of streams, Bayside has achieved a lot in their storied career.

And fans can start getting excited — because it is indeed coming!

SILVER SANDS MARINA: Pop Up Show @ Pinnacle Sept. 25

You can tell when Kenny Chesney is fired up about new music. Starting with his “TODAY” Citi Concert Series appearance at Rockefeller Plaza, the new music goes down easy – and the band is in great form. With all the positive energy and forward motion, the man who closed out his second Sphere residency wasn’t ready to shut it down for the year.
 
“This new music – maybe because we’ve had so much time to get it to this place – has taken me back to when albums mattered, the songs kind of spoke to each other, and we found some really special, unusual things,” says the East Tennessee songwriter/superstar who announced a 19-city stadium tour earlier this week. “Between loving this record and just getting to play a little bit at ‘TODAY,’ I figured we should keep rocking – and maybe make it a little bit bigger than a Keg in the Keys or Keg in the Closet show.
 
“So, we got everybody together… and we’re taking over the Pinnacle in Nashville. One night only, probably not more than a couple thousand tickets, and we’re trying to make it fun and fair to get in. If the band and I can get it together, we’re gonna play five, six, maybe even seven of these eleven songs, and I can’t wait.”

With HEY NOW Records jumping in to build an activation on the plaza around the Pinnacle, Chesney is doing what he does best: throwing a party on short notice, throwing open the doors and turning the music up loud. “I want to share this excitement with everybody, which is why we’re gonna put this on No Shoes Radio, but for the people who can get their hands on these tickets, I can’t wait to see the joy and whatever energy they bring to this new music.
 
“Silver Sands Marina is finally gonna be here, and seeing the reaction just to the title track, ‘Goldfish’ and ‘Carry On’ at ‘TODAY,’ I think this is going to be one of those times where new music actually takes people higher. So, here we go… and to everybody who works with me who’s pulling their hair out, just know: you’re gonna have a lot of fun, too.”
 
Limited tickets to the high-demand event will be priced at $10 and made available through Fair AXS. Fans can register now through tomorrow, Sept. 19 at 9 p.m. CT at THIS LINK for an opportunity to purchase tickets. Selected fans will receive a private purchase link tied to their AXS account.
 
Fair AXS empowers artists to sell their tickets directly to fans - not bots - at the prices they choose. Fans can sign up during a flexible registration window at a time that works best for them, instead of rushing to check out the moment tickets go on sale. This approach replaces a one-size-fits-all model, allowing each event to be tailored by market and aligned with local regulations - and the artist's philosophy. By combining identity-based ticketing, transparent policies, and artists' ownership of their own data, Fair AXS gives artists meaningful control over how their tickets are sold and creates a fairer experience for fans.
 
On Thursday, Sept. 24 from 5-10 p.m. CT on and Friday, Sept. 25 from 12-10 p.m. CT, fans can immerse themselves in the world of the Silver Sands Marina album at the Pinnacle plaza activation space. In addition to life-size buildouts, photo moments, food trucks, bars and more, they’ll also be able to purchase physical copies of the album including signed vinyls and CDs plus special variants.
 
With the Original Vibe Room Tour name being inspired by that blast of excitement, the insanity of those first years of selling a million tickets every summer, that passion continues driving the launch of Silver Sands Marina. Having delivered songs that have both defined coming of age across the country and soundtracked the moments that define a life, Chesney is feeling the moment – and wanting to take everyone along for the ride.
 
“I love the idea that songs can give people their lives in three- and four-minute pieces, that it can lift them up or thrill them when they most deserve and need it. When I started listening back, I said, ‘Why wait for the tour?’ The band is so hot, and we’re having so much fun, we figured we’d learn some of these songs and go for it… Come be part of it, and know even if you’re just listening, I think that energy will carry through your speakers.”

Miranda Lambert Unveils Vintage Heartbreaker "Two Things Can Be True" Ahead of 10/2 'Crisco' Release

With Crisco named one of the most anticipated albums this fall by The New York Times, Vulture and more, Miranda Lambert continues to unveil the project already drawing attention for its retro sensibility and expansive take on country music via today’s release of “Two Things Can Be True.” Listen Below and pre-save/pre-order the album arriving Oct. 2 via MCA HERE.
 
A timeless heartbreak song wrapped in the lush, vintage-inspired sounds of classic country and sung in Lambert’s warm lower register, “Two Things Can Be True” finds her navigating the complicated space between knowing a love is slipping away and still holding on to it:

“‘Two Things Can Be True’ is probably my favorite song on the record right now,” Lambert shares. “There’s something about it that feels almost like singing a duet with the steel and strings, and it’s country through and through with an old-school Patsy Cline feeling. I love that it found its own little corner of the Crisco world.”
 
“Two Things Can Be True” joins the previously released title track plus “Sunset Marquis,” “Till The Going’s Gone” and GRAMMY-nominated duet “A Song To Sing” with Chris Stapleton in previewing the rich musical landscape Lambert and co-producer Jesse Frasure created on Crisco. Across 12 tracks, Lambert celebrates the many worlds that have always existed within country music as it nods to the genre’s shared history with disco music. She explores heartbreak and hope, highways and honky-tonks, rhinestones and roller skates, creating a record that feels both timeless and refreshingly alive while embracing every side of the artist fans have come to love: the storyteller, the wanderer, the romantic, the troublemaker, the traditionalist and the dreamer. 
 
The song arrives during a landmark moment for Lambert as an artist, songwriter and producer, having received seven CMA Award nominations spanning those roles, including recognition for her work on Ella Langley’s history-making hit “Choosin’ Texas.” Lambert is a co-writer and co-producer on the song, which this week tied the all-time record for most weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

CRAIG MORGAN’S UPCOMING ALBUM MY COUNTRY CELEBRATES THE HEART, SOUL AND SOUND OF AMERICA

Long before his more than two decades of success as a country-music artist, Craig Morgan answered a higher calling — serving our country in the United States Army and Army Reserve. During America’s 250th birthday year, Craig will release My Country, a musical celebration of our great nation as well as the genre that speaks to the soul of its people. Available on November 6 ahead of Veterans Day, Craig’s upcoming 11-song album — My Country (BBR Music Group / BMG Nashville) — displays his unwavering patriotism for the Stars and Stripes with songs like “Long May You Wave” and honors his late friend, Toby Keith, with a passionate and personal cover of “American Soldier.”

Craig’s comprehensive catalog has formed the soundtrack of our lives and his newest song, “I’m Country Music,” available today ahead of the album’s release is no exception. The song, which Craig has previewed in concert and on the Opry stage, pays tribute to die-hard music fans and all the ways country music speaks to our hearts, hopes, fears, tears, and celebrations.

AVAILABLE TODAY: Stream Craig Morgan’s track “I’m Country Music”
AVAILABLE NOVEMBER 6: Pre-Save/Add/Order Craig Morgan’s album My Country HERE

“This new album brings together two things I love - my country and country music - and it’s created to celebrate both,” shares Craig. “You’ve been hearing ‘I’m Country Music’ in my shows lately and I’m excited to finally release it today. And I’m privileged too to have the blessing of my friend Toby Keith’s family to record and release my own version of his iconic song, ‘American Soldier,’ on the project too. I can’t wait for everyone to listen!”

Craig, who currently serves in the Army Reserve, continues to give back to our military veterans. Prior to his headlining show at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium on Saturday, November 7, the Grand Ole Opry member will host Craig Morgan’s Veterans Day 5K, supported by Humana, that morning at the Grand Ole Opry House. Registration is open now at veteransday5k.com and a portion of the proceeds will benefit Opry Trust Fund, Operation Finally Home, the USO and the Dickson County Craig Morgan Foundation.

OUT NOW: DREW BALDRIDGE’S FARM FAITH FAMILY

A project years in the making, Drew Baldridge’s highly anticipated album, FARM FAITH FAMILY, is officially out today via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. Listen Below. 

Nearly fifteen years after arriving in Nashville with a dream and lots of determination, Baldridge is entering a new chapter with FARM FAITH FAMILY, his third full-length album and first release on BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. The 16-track project is a deeply personal reflection of the life he has built along the way - one shaped by music, family, faith, farming, entrepreneurship and an unwavering belief in himself.

For Baldridge, the album represents more than a career milestone. It is the culmination of more than a decade of persistence, sacrifice and independence, arriving at a moment when the singer-songwriter finally has a team behind him that shares his vision and believes in the music as much as he does.

“It’s overwhelming to think about sometimes,” said Baldridge. “I’ve been working toward this moment for almost 15 years, which is crazy to think about. In some ways, it feels like I just moved to Nashville, and in other ways, it feels like I’ve been here forever. This album came together so organically because it’s a true reflection of who I am and the life I’ve built. I’m a dad, a husband, a musician, a songwriter, a farmer, a brother, a son, an entrepreneur and so much more. FARM FAITH FAMILY brings all of those pieces of my life together in three chapters that really represent the pillars of who I am.”

Structured around those three pillars, FARM FAITH FAMILY takes listeners through the experiences and values that have shaped Baldridge both personally and professionally. Tracks 1–4 comprise FARM, tracks 5–11 make up FAITH, and tracks 12–16 complete the album with FAMILY. Together, the three chapters offer an intimate portrait of an artist who has remained grounded in where he came from while continuing to push toward where he wants to go.

Structured around those three pillars, FARM FAITH FAMILY takes listeners through the experiences and values that have shaped Baldridge both personally and professionally. Tracks 1–4 comprise FARM, tracks 5–11 make up FAITH, and tracks 12–16 complete the album with FAMILY. Together, the three chapters offer an intimate portrait of an artist who has remained grounded in where he came from while continuing to push toward where he wants to go.

Baldridge co-wrote 14 of the album’s 16 tracks, further cementing the project as his most personal and authentic body of work to date. The album brings together a stellar collection of collaborators, including two of country music’s acclaimed rising stars, Anne Wilson and Emily Ann Roberts, alongside contributions from some of Nashville’s most accomplished songwriters, including GRAMMY-nominated writers Luke Combs, Laura Veltz, Tyler Hubbard, Seth Mosley, Rhett Akins and Tim Nichols.

After years of building a devoted fanbase independently, he has continued to prove the power of his music and his connection with fans. His self-funded single “She’s Somebody’s Daughter” became a career-defining success, reaching No. 1 on the Country Aircheck/Mediabase country chart and ultimately becoming RIAA Platinum-certified streaming favorite, demonstrating the strength of an artist who has built his career on his own terms.

Now, with FARM FAITH FAMILY, Baldridge is bringing that same independent spirit into a new era.

He will kick off the album release weekend with The BIG Baldridge and Bonfire Show tomorrow, September 19, in Patoka, IL. Now in its fourth year, the annual festival brings live music, friends and community together in the small town where Baldridge was raised, creating a one-of-a-kind party on the farm that celebrates the people and place that helped shape him. The celebration comes just days before a national TV appearance when Baldridge performs on Live with Kelly and Mark on September 23 before returning to Nashville to take the stage at the Grand Ole Opry that evening, followed by a special album listening event celebrating FARM FAITH FAMILY.

About Drew Baldridge: 
Drew Baldridge continues to give fans exactly what they’ve been asking for: a steady stream of authentic country music rooted in the themes that define him — farm, faith and family. His 16-track project, FARM FAITH FAMILY, is out now. 


The new chapter builds on the momentum of Baldridge’s RIAA Platinum-certified breakthrough, “She’s Somebody’s Daughter,” which reached No. 1 on the Country Aircheck/Mediabase chart and No. 3 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart. The success made him the only self-funded artist to debut at No. 1 on Mediabase and the highest-charting independent artist in the history of Billboard’s Country Airplay chart. The song has generated more than 2 billion streams and impressions and was recognized by the Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI) as one of its prestigious “10 Songs I Wish I’d Written.”

Baldridge is spending 2026 on the road headlining his FARM FAITH FAMILY Tour while also joining Cody Johnson and Luke Bryan on select dates. Following recent tours across Australia, the U.K. and Europe — both as a headliner and opening for Jelly Roll — he continues to expand his global audience while earning industry recognition, including being named a CRS New Faces of Country Music honoree and MusicRow’s 2025 Independent Artist of the Year.

Olive Vox Release Debut EP 'Trace It Back'; Release New Video For "I Do"

Texas alt-rock quartet Olive Vox release their debut EP, Trace It Back, today via Big Machine Rock. Across six tracks, the band turn the lens inward, working through guilt, damaged relationships, self-destructive patterns, expectation and the uneasy process of confronting the parts of yourself you would rather leave buried. Fans can stream Trace It Back HERE.

Arriving alongside the EP is focus track “I Do” and its official video. The song centres on the pressure of being defined by other people and the conflict between keeping the peace, staying true to yourself and wanting to be properly understood by someone who has witnessed what you have been through. Watch the official video below.

Speaking on “I Do”, Olive Vox share:

“This song is about wrestling with the heavy weight of expectations and the feeling of having your true self buried by people who thought they had you figured out. It is caught between wanting to conform to keep the peace and the desperate hope that your art or your voice can bring you back home. Underneath the fear of judgment and getting things wrong, there is a strong need to be truly seen and understood by someone who was actually there to witness the struggle.”

That tension sits naturally inside Trace It Back, an EP shaped by what happens when honesty starts costing something. Across recent singles “Hear Me Out”, “BABYDOLL” and “We Are Not The Same”, Olive Vox have pushed further into direct, emotionally exposed songwriting, confronting guilt, self-destruction, toxic cycles and the consequences of their own behaviour.

For vocalist Parker James, the EP came from a deliberate decision to stop hiding behind more elusive lyrics and write more openly about the period he was living through. Speaking on Trace It Back, he shares:

“The Trace It Back EP compiles past and pre-existing transgressions. I aimed to be more direct and honest in my lyrics, rather than being elusive. I found myself oversharing personal details, which led to regret and overthinking. Due to my anxieties, I became very closeted and shut off. Realizing that it was actually affecting me more than just being my true self, I decided I wouldn’t care about what I wrote as long as it made me happy. This EP serves as a collection and a snapshot of a time and place in my life where I was struggling.” - Parker James

Trace It Back captures that period without trying to force it into a clean resolution. The songs deal with recognising destructive behaviour, carrying guilt, wanting forgiveness and struggling to move beyond versions of yourself that still affect the present.

Musically, the EP draws from alternative rock, post-punk, indie and modern heavy music, with the band keeping melody and live impact at the centre of the songs. That emphasis on performance has remained central throughout the campaign, with Olive Vox continuing to build their audience through touring as much as through streaming and video.

The EP arrives while Olive Vox are on the road supporting The Toadies across the US. Following recent runs with Badflower and Raue and a return to Camp Woodward this summer as featured musicians and mentors, the band play The Blue Note in Columbia, Missouri tonight before continuing the tour through October 3rd in Ventura, California.

Just days later, Olive Vox will head back out for a newly announced run supporting Beauty School Dropout on their “The Circus” F/W 2026 US Tour. The seven-date run begins October 8th in Sacramento, California and takes the band through Reno, Tucson, Oklahoma City, Indianapolis, Allentown and Pittsburgh.

Olive Vox have now surpassed 1.5 million cross-platform streams and 1.89 million YouTube views during the campaign.

SEA SLEEPER Release New Album Burden Of Antlers With Visualizer

Oregon's death metal quartet SEA SLEEPER preset their sophomore full-length album, Burden of Antlers. With a sound that embraces the weird and obscure, Burden of Antlers sees the band hone further the cohesion across their composition process to produce an offering that is thoroughly eclectic and heavy. 

The band comments:

"Burden of Antlers is our second album as sea sleeper. Three of us have been working together to make the weirdest/Heaviest metal we would want to listen to. We have been playing music together for close to 15 years and we recently recruited Tony Spradlin as the fourth sleeper. This album is a more cohesive effort than our debut release Nostophobia. This record comes back to passages and re-explores them in their entirety instead of finding the next shiny riff."

Watch the full album stream below:

SEA SLEEPER has refined the creative direction of their sound in Burden of Antlers. Leaning into the eclectic, 'weird', and, ultimately, heavy, the band focus on developing riffs and motifs across the track list, resulting into a more cohesive and thematically linked full-length offering. 

Burden of Antlers was recorded at Sleeping Studio by Jesse Cooley and Shane Cooley. The album was produced, mixed and mastered by Jesse Cooley, with the cover artwork created by Johnny P.

GRAVEYARD - Unleash Video For Energetic New Single 'Tongue Tied'

Rock titans GRAVEYARD have officially unleashed their incendiary new single, ‘Tongue Tied’, available today on all digital platforms alongside an energetic official music video. The track serves as a driving second preview of their highly anticipated seventh studio album, Fever, arriving October 9th worldwide via Nuclear Blast Records.

Shaking off the gloomier, introverted atmosphere of 2023’s album Six, ‘Tongue Tied’ shifts the band into high gear. Built on an up-tempo momentum and a relentless, hard-hitting groove, the track stands out as one of the most direct and urgent songs in the band’s catalog. Drenched in thick fuzz and fueled by a blistering rhythm section, GRAVEYARDcaptures an uncompromising, high-velocity energy without sacrificing a drop of their signature, blues-soaked soul.

To visually capture the track's breakneck drive, the band enlisted acclaimed Swedish director Emil Klinta, whose visual palette has previously shaped iconic videos for Ghost and The Hellacopters. Klinta’s video mirrors the song's electric pace, matching performance-driven intensity with a sleek, cinematic rock-and-roll edge.

Mixed by Pelle Gunnerfeldt—widely renowned for capturing the ferocious live energy of bands like The Hives, Refused, and Viagra Boys—and mastered by Robin Schmidt at 24-96 Mastering, ‘Tongue Tied’ displays the raw, unvarnished power at the heart of the upcoming album.

Accompanying the record's bold visual identity created by Dutch artist Maarten Donders, Fever marks a triumphant return to form for the two-time Swedish chart-toppers. Following the album’s release on October 9th, GRAVEYARD will launch a co-headlining Scandinavian tour alongside BLUES PILLS to celebrate the release, ahead of extensive European and UK tours throughout 2027.

Stream ‘Tongue Tied’ now on all major platforms and watch the official video directed by Emil Klinta. Pre-orders for Fever are available now via Nuclear Blast Records.

Swedish Retro Rockers SPIDERS Share Title Track from Upcoming Album + Official Video

Today, Swedish rock powerhouse SPIDERS proudly share the title track from their upcoming album, 'Crystal Eyes,' set for release on September 25th via Sound Pollution. The new track arrives alongside an official music video.

With a confidence that shines through every second and stellar production by Kalle and György (Svenska Grammofonstudion), SPIDERS deliver a song where everything falls into place. Drive, attitude, intensity, and an instinctive sense for melody come together in perfect balance.

At the center is Ann-Sofie Hoyles' charismatic voice, guiding the listener through a chorus that refuses to let go.

Accompanying the single is a brand-new music video created by production company Smack in close collaboration with the band. The result is a visually striking piece that challenges, engages, and connects seamlessly with the album's artwork and overall aesthetic.

Calling "Crystal Eyes" a potential hit may sound like a bold statement, but the question is whether SPIDERS have ever come closer. This is a song with all the ingredients to become an instant favorite among longtime fans and new listeners alike.

Watch the Official Video for "Crystal Eyes" Below:

With their new album ’Crystal Eyes,’ SPIDERS deliver their most powerful statement yet. Recorded at the renowned Svenska Grammofonstudion in Gothenburg with producers Kalle Gustafsson Jerneholm and György Barocsai, the album is a high-voltage rock record bursting with energy, attitude, and a deep love for rock's past, present, and future.

Building on the momentum of last year's ’Sharp Objects,’ ’Crystal Eyes’ captures the band's signature blend of hard rock, garage, punk, and new wave with renewed confidence and intensity, showcasing the raw power and memorable songwriting that have become their trademark.

Pre-Order 'Crystal Eyes' HERE

Since forming in Gothenburg in 2012, SPIDERS have earned a fierce reputation on stages across Europe and the United States. Through acclaimed albums including ’Flash Point,’ ’Shake Electric,’ and ’Killer Machine,’ the band has carved out a sound where classic rock 'n' roll collides with garage rock, punk attitude, and new wave swagger. ’Sharp Objects,’ their first release on Wild Kingdom, marked an exciting new chapter for the band and climbed to No. 1 on Sweden's physical album chart, setting the stage for the ambitious follow-up that is ’Crystal Eyes.’

The band's growing profile has been fueled by an impressive run of live performances. Last year, SPIDERS toured extensively alongside The Hellacopters before collaborating on a split single paying tribute to the late David Johansen. This spring, they continued their momentum with a Spanish tour alongside The Soundtrack of Our Lives, further cementing their reputation as one of Scandinavia's most electrifying live acts.

Praised by Classic Rock, Record Collector, Sweden Rock Magazine, and Vive Le Rock, SPIDERS have been described as "70s-soaked hard rock," "Motörhead chaos," and a "riff party." With ’Crystal Eyes,’ they continue to push forward while remaining true to the spirit that has defined them from the beginning, delivering an album with undeniable international appeal and reaffirming their place among today's most exciting rock bands.

SPIDERS are:

Ann-Sofie Hoyles – vocals

John Hoyles – guitar

Rickard Hellgren – guitar

Alex Mayr – bass

Oskar Brindmark – drums

FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH NEW ALBUM "LEGACY" NOW AVAILABLE ON LIMITED EDITION VINYL, CD, + CASSETTE

Today, Five Finger Death Punch released various physical editions of their brand-new 10th studio album, Legacy, which arrived digitally on July 31 via Better Noise Music. The collection includes limited-edition vinyl, CD, and cassette variants featuring exclusive artwork, available now through the band's official store HERE, with the European and UK vinyl release following on October 9. Adding to today’s release, the band also dropped the official music video for the album’s title track "Legacy." Watch it BELOW. 

Celebrating two decades of Five Finger Death Punch, each physical variant stands out as a singular collectible, arriving as the band continues its current North American leg of the 20th Anniversary World Tour through October 23.

Since its digital release in July, Legacy has already yielded over 60 million streams and counting. Upon release, the album claimed spots on 18 international charts. Most notably, it vaulted to #2 on the US Top Digital Albums Chart, hot on the trail of only Ariana Grande's Petal. On Spotify, it hit #6 on the US Top Albums Chart and #8 globally.

The album arrived in the wake of the first single "Eye Of The Storm," delivering the band's 18th No. 1 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart, extending their own record for the most consecutive No. 1s in the chart's 45-year history. It held the top slot for three consecutive weeks. Current single "Nails in the Coffin" is steadily climbing the rock charts and is already at #21 this week. Revolver praised the track's blend of battering riffs and melody driven by Ivan Moody's introspective vocal performance, while Loudwire called it "a furious opening statement for the new album cycle."

The band is currently on the first leg of their 20th Anniversary World Tour, traveling across North America with special guests Cody Jinks and Eva Under Fire. The 20th Anniversary World Tour is both a celebration and a statement, honoring the band's journey from their 2005 formation and the 2007 release of their debut album, The Way Of The Fist, to global arena headliners. The tour will showcase material from the new album, alongside classic anthems and #1 hits that defined the past two decades. Produced by Live Nation and sponsored by Punch'd Energy, the 48-city North American tour is currently underway and will wrap up in Bristow, VA, at Jiffy Lube Live on October 23. Check out the full tour routing below. For tickets, VIP offerings, and more, visit here.

In addition to celebrating two decades of music, the band is once again using its platform to give back. Long recognized as one of rock's most charitable bands, Five Finger Death Punch has spent decades giving back to various causes, including U.S. military veterans, first responders, and their families. In 2026, the band continued that tradition by supporting Team USA and aligning with the upcoming Olympic and Paralympic Games, to be held on American soil in Los Angeles in 2028. As part of the tour's commitment to championing America's next generation of athletes, a portion of the ticket sales from the 2026 North American Tour will benefit high-performance programs for U.S. Olympic and Paralympic athletes as they prepare for international competition.

The 20th Anniversary World Tour also marks the newest addition to the Death Punch family: Punch'd Energy joins as the tour's official sponsor, bringing a whole new way to get energized. Their stackable caffeine gummies each contain 10mg of pure, natural caffeine, so fans can stack as many as they need to build their own dose. At every show, fans 18 and over can scan the on-screen QR code for a free sample shipped straight to their door, no purchase necessary. For more info, visit here.

Next up, after the North American tour, 5FDP will head across the pond for an early 2027 UK/EUROPEAN arena tour with Lamb of God and Bleed From Within. The second leg of the 20th Anniversary World Tour will kick off in Manchester, UK, on Saturday, January 16, and will see the band perform in 21 cities across the continent, ending in Helsinki on February 22, 2027.

Evil Invaders Unleash New Standalone Single "Dreamstate (Single Version)"

Belgian Thrash and Heavy Metal unit EVIL INVADERS strike with their huge new standalone single "Dreamstate (Single Version)," out now alongside a cinematic official music video! The anticipatory intro of the song builds into a relentless storm of sounds, defined by the heavy-hitting drums, roaring guitars, and multi-faceted vocals. Drawing lyrically from the rat race and sensory overload that defines modern society, EVIL INVADERS unleash a true heavy metal banger with their first music release since the 2022 album Shattering Reflection, reinforcing their standing as a rising force in the international scene.
 
Having toured with Dirkschneider and Sepultura earlier this year, EVIL INVADERS have proved that they are ready for the big stages, and recently announced more exciting tours for 2027. The band will be co-headlining continental Europe with HEATHEN and Exhorder, bringing WARFIELD along as a special guest, and co-headlining with HEATHEN only in the UK. Immerse yourself into the thrilling music video for the new single below and stay tuned for more new music coming soon!

Vocalist Joe on the new single and video:
"'Dreamstate' is about overwhelming stress and how our mind deals with it. In a world where there's no time for rest or any peace of mind, we lay awake at night and rejoin the rat race by day. Our body gets ignored when it tells us to slow down, we push through while we're multi-tasking our way through life. Suddenly, we realize we're not really awake or living in 'the now' anymore...Can you escape the Dreamstate?
 
"The whole video concept was made by our friend Jens De Vos from Panda Productions. He wanted to make a video clip that was not mainly based on quick editing and fast camera movements. Instead, he chose a more cinematic way of filming. It resulted in a video that feels like you're watching a movie moreso than a music video. Something completely different. We also want to make clear that there was no AI used for the special effects in the video. Everything is real work done by human beings."

Pittsburgh's LOWSUNDAY turns loneliness into darkwave seduction on 'Someone To Talk To'

US darkwave-shoegaze pioneers Lowsunday lean straight into the heavy ache of isolation on their intoxicating new single, 'Someone to Talk To', exploring the painful tension between the desperate need for connection and the harsh realization that the person we trust may not be who they seem.

Following the adrenaline-infused 'You’re So Wired' and 'This Is Not Heaven', the new single is lifted from their scorching 'Low Sunday Ghost Machine - Black EP' recently released via Projekt Records, the very label that supported them before disbanding decades ago. Wrapping listeners in a shadowy, dreamlike atmosphere, this song turns heartbreak and disillusionment into something strangely serene.

The lyrics follow someone reaching out for companionship while getting caught in a web of deception, emotional dependence, and misplaced trust. It hits on a central truth about chronic loneliness: how it can cloud our judgment, causing us to mistake basic attention for genuine care and completely overlook warning signs until the truth is impossible to ignore. The repeated declarations of love set against accusations of cruelty capture the song’s core emotional contradiction, showing how attachment can survive even after trust has been destroyed.

Formed initially as Low Sunday Ghost Machine back in 1994, the band emerged as retro-futurist pioneers, blending darkwave and shoegaze long before either genre experienced its modern revival. After a nearly 25-year hiatus, Lowsundayresurfaced in 2025 as a duo featuring original members Shane Sahene on vocals, guitars, synth, bass, and drums, alongside Bobby Spell on bass, guitars, and drums.

Their return was cemented by extended 30th and 25th-anniversary re-releases of their 1996 debut album 'Low Sunday Ghost Machine' and the 1999 masterpiece 'Elesgiem' through Projekt Records, followed closely by their late 2025 ‘Low Sunday Ghost Machine - White EP', which ranked second on Post-Punk.com's best EPs list. Now, the 'Black EP' -- their second release of all-new material released since 1999 -- serves as the darker counterpart and definitive statement to that release.

"This song goes into darker, more abstract places," explains Shane Sahene, talking about interacting with people who walk through life handing out broken hearts as a form of exchange. "The figurines with the eyeball heads almost suggest being naive—that we sometimes think with our eyes and not our heads—that we can love at face value and totally miss the underlying reality that some people actually don't want to be loved. As the song goes, 'when you said you had my back, it was your first attack.'"

Shane Sahene also notes the curious irony of the track: "It makes us very happy to play. It’s so dark in concept that it emotionally feels like being in a calm ocean at night or walking into a cave."

The release is further anchored by a striking companion music video crafted by creative partner Jer Herring. "This video perfectly captures the delicate coldness, detachment, and loneliness of this song," says Bobby Spell. "Jer has a way of drawing on the essence of a song and bonding it with imagery that demonstrates isolation and miscommunication in a variety of modern scenarios."

Blending shimmering, pristine textures with infectious choruses, Lowsundaybridges three decades of distinct sonic legacy with a renewed creative clarity. The 'Black EP' is available now across digital platforms like Spotify and Apple Music, with a physical vinyl edition (limited to 200 copies) available through Bandcamp.

Kenny Chesney Rocks The Plaza; Debuts Animated "Goldfish" TONIGHT

They came from Maine, New Hampshire, Virginia, North Carolina, Philadelphia and beyond – and started lining up long before midnight – to be part of Kenny Chesney’s kick-off for Silver Sands Marina on the Plaza with “TODAY”’s Citi Concert Series. They brought license plates saying “SS Marina,” signs that said “Skipped School for This,” “Too Old for High Heels, But Not No Shoes,” “Virgina Is For Kenny Chesney Lovers” and “My First Kenny Chesney Concert,” as well as Pirates Flags, tennis pros, bags of Goldfish and sundry tokens of No Shoes Nation for the show that saw the live debut of the title track, “Goldfish” and “Carry On.”
 
“I figured if we’ve got the band in place, we might as well open it up,” said the East Tennessee songwriter-superstar. “To play these songs for the people, to feel the energy and see how they light people up is what it’s all about… And it was great they gave us five songs, so we could go deep – and have some fun. And it was.”
 

Photos from Chesney's "TODAY" performance will be added HERE with photo credit as they become available.
Performances will be available later today
HERE.

With the new songs landing with a big smile and bigger energy, Chesney has gotten his 21st album underway like only he can. Live on several ESPN shows this afternoon, he will join his friends at the table on “The View” tomorrow. Even more, the Country Music Hall of Fame inductee is set to world premiere a special animated clip of “Goldfish” tonight as part of his second TalkShopLive appearance, where he will further unpack his new album and take questions from the people watching. Watch the premiere and conversation HERE.
 
“Since we’re all gonna be together, this is the place to show off this new, animated take on our ‘Goldfish’ video,” Chesney shares. “We were talking about how much fun the video we shot was and childlike this song is, and figured, ‘Why not take it all the way… and make a cartoon out of it?’ It’s amazing what you can do when you add in animation.
 
“All of the animals not only come to life – and have some pretty good rhythm. But through some really creative people’s magic, they even brought Poncho and Da Ruba Girl to the party! What could be better? And the people at TalkShopLive worked so hard to figure out how we can make world premiering this video a part of tonight’s stuff.”
 
Next week, Chesney joins Gayle King on “CBS Mornings,” as well as Joe Torre for “NBC Nightly News” segment “Great Americans.” As “Carry On” crests the top of the charts and the Original Vibe Room 2027 Tour tickets for 19 stadium shows go on sale, Silver Sands Marina arrives with a flourish and a lot of fun.
 
“It’s been three years since I put out a record, and we’ve got new music to play,” Chesney says. “This has been such a creative time for me and the band, and we’re loving every moment. If it’s this much fun now, I can’t imagine what next year’s tour is gonna be like – because these songs are landing now, it’s going to be crazy when we get to Tampa. Just the way we like it.”

Pre-order, pre-save/pre-add Silver Sands Marina HERE.

Purchase the signed vinyl, CDs and limited vinyl picture discs, or watch Chesney’s first in-depth conversation about Silver Sands Marina on TalkShopLive HERE.

Ray Hawthorne Can't Outrun Where He's From On New Single "When It Rains"

Pop punk's most lovable liability, Ray Hawthorne, returns today with another brand new track, "When It Rains", taken off his forthcoming new record, "Ray Hawthorne Can't Be Trusted", set for release on October 15. Candid vulnerability, relatable angst, and a strong dislike for your hometown all in one track. Pre-save the upcoming record, "Ray Hawthorne Can't Be Trusted".

Fresh off the placement of "Habits (ft. Pouyan Afkary of Scary Kids Scaring Kids)" at Halloween Horror Nights: Los Angeles, Ray Hawthorne leans into the buzz to deliver a fun, pop-punk deep cut. Miming the ache of small-town stagnation and self-doubt, "When It Rains" captures the suffocating pull of a hometown you can't quite leave behind.

Where "Ray Hawthorne Sucks" was earnest and "Ray Hawthorne Isn't Real" was chaotic, "Ray Hawthorne Can't Be Trusted" continues a catalog that treats humor, self-awareness, and self-destruction as adjacent concepts. As a whole, Ray Hawthorne leans into emotional whiplash and damage control on his earlier records, while "Ray Hawthorne Can't Be Trusted" (produced by Pete Zen) is aimed at the part of the cycle where the damage has already become too familiar.

Setting sail on the emo seas with "When It Rains", Ray Hawthorne shares:

"To be read in a pirate voice:

Arrrrggg matey. How’s goes life for you land lubbers? Everybody thinks they be a pirate because they went to Disneyland once. Posers yee be. And yee know posers be walking the plank on this ship. Alas, this shanty has me favorite line on the record, “When it rains in New Jersey it bathes me, it burns me, it breaks me, it cures me.” The crew and me be singing it until the wee hours. Shiver me timbers and such. It’s like the drinking songs of old but also if the drinking songs of old were inherently emo. Emo pirates we be. Yo ho yo ho a crying life for me."

Renowned for his work in North Kingsley, the acclaimed project alongside Shavo Odadjianof System of a Down, Hawthorne initially captured hearts as the Heartbreak Hero with his inaugural solo release "Heartbreak Feels Good in a Place Like This". Building on his solo work, his debut record "Ray Hawthorne Sucks" further cemented his status as a bold new voice in pop punk, quickly amassing a devoted following and over 20 million streams across all streaming platforms for his magnetic charm and razor-sharp wit.

Blending heartbreak, sarcasm, and just the right amount of emotional stability, Ray Hawthorne leads with a messy kind of hope, turning emotional freefall into something you can scream along to. Where debut album and his firstborn, "Ray Hawthorne Sucks", leaned into an earnest DIY vulnerability, his previous record, "Ray Hawthorne Isn't Real", took a turn and tapped into the restless defiance of a secondborn. The 15 tracks helped embrace the chaos, laugh at the pain, and maybe, just maybe, allow us all to find a little redemption along the way.

Starting from the very real possibility that Ray Hawthorne is just a guy screaming into the ether (and somehow making it sound catchy), his catalog has become a refuge for anyone who's ever felt too loud, too sensitive, or too much. Loud, petty, and deeply cathartic, Ray Hawthorneis proudly one of the most unapologetically honest voices modern pop-punk.

Be sure to stay tuned for more Ray Hawthorne news coming very soon.

Nytt Land Premiere Ritual of Stone Sun (Live 2026)

For more than 20 years, Nytt Land have followed their living, breathing connection with ancient traditions and beliefs. Earlier this year, on March 22nd, the dark folk family duo of Natalia and Anatoly Pakhalenko welcomed the spring equinox with a career-spanning live performance in Moscow. Now, fans around the world can partake in this shamanic ritual with their new live album Ritual of Stone Sun (Live 2026).  

Ritual of Stone Sun (Live 2026) comes out on all digital platforms  tomorrow, Friday, September 18, 2026 on Season of Mist, but you can experience the entire performance today by watching below.

“Ritual of Stone Sun is dedicated to the spring transition and the awakening of nature”, Nytt Land vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Anatoly Pakhalenko says. “Many of the songs from the album are performed today by the nomadic people of Siberia during ceremonies, shamanic rituals and folk festivals”.

Much like the symbol of the sun itself, Ritual of Stone Sun traces back through Nytt Land’s history. The dark folk family duo’s new live album spans from the throat singing and shamanic drums of their early Nordic cycle to their most recent explorations of the ancient percussion and vocal traditions that are performed by Siberian shamans to this day.

Lead single “Ragnarök” remains a core pillar for Nytt Land’s live ritual since first appearing on the duo’s 2018 album, Oðal. Anatolly’s throat singing and mystical talharpa recall scenes from a Nordic epic. “U-Gra”, a more recent fan favorite, calls out in dedication to ancient Siberia with pounding drums and Natalie’s hypnotic chanting. In the five years since the song was released off the 2021 album Ritual, it has been played more than 3 million times on YouTube and Spotify.  

The full video of Nytt Land’s March 2026 performance in Moscow includes three songs that do not appear on Ritual of Stone Sun. “Taiga”, “Totem” and “Tygir Tayii (Heavenly Sacrifice)” are all featured on the duo’s latest studio album, Aba Khan, which was released this February by Prophecy Productions.

The live video of “Ragnarök” was filmed by Sergei Kaputanuk.

After signing with Season of Mist in May of 2026, Nytt Land announced Ritual of Stone Sun (Live 2026). Recorded and filmed in Moscow on March 22, 2026, the live album is dedicated to the beginning of spring and the awakening of nature. The tracklist spans from their 2026 single “Equinox” to “Ragnarök” and other songs from their early Nordic cycle.

FALSIMONIAN Release New Single "Judgment" With Visualizer, Ahead of Forthcoming EP 'For Survival'

Melodic death metal quartet FALSIMONIAN have released their most experimental single offering, "Judgment" alongside a visualizer created by audio-visual artist Brian Pinke aka pinkenoise. The track delivers a sonic fusion of death metal, progressive metal, and jazz. FALSIMONIAN's forthcoming EP, For Survival, is scheduled to arrive independently on November 7, 2026.

FALSIMONIAN is pleased to announce an exciting collaboration with audio-visual artist Brian Pinke, out of South Carolina. Pinke performed multiple reactive takes to the track using a modular synthesizer connected to his custom video generating rig. He edited the takes to create the final version, resulting in a bespoke analog video experience.  

Each video performance is unique and impossible to replicate, and the intricate analog circuitry creates glitch-like art that is both haunting and beautiful fusing retro and modern aesthetics. 

"We are beyond excited to collaborate with Brian, this video aligns with our values of supporting human-made art, and we are honored to have a custom visualizer that was performed alongside our music"

The US and Mexico based melodic death metal band FALSIMONIAN infuse their dynamic heavy sound with influences from Mexican folk and Latin-American roots music, as well as progressive elements and jazz. Centered around a fictional, dystopian world, the upcoming EP considers the everyday impact onto individuals who are living under the threat and fear of a world-ending catastrophe.

For Survival was produced by Jesus Fuentes Valverde, with mixing and mastering by Gil Andrade. Drums engineering was undertaken by Ruben Sanchez at Urvn Studios, with guitars and keyboards recorded by Jesus Fuentes Valverde and vocals recorded by Erick Valverde. Guitar and vocal editing, and bass programming, was by Jesus Fuentes Valverde. Additional guitars on "Limitless", "Judgment" and "For Survival" were recorded and edited by Cesar Robles. 

All artwork photography for the EP and single releases are from X-Rays Erick Valverde has taken over the last 10 years. The artworks utilize original photographs of a colorful sunset as the light source behind the X-Rays. These colors are commonly seen in the desert skies of the US/Mexico border. Ariadne Willis adjusted the photographs for the layout and design of the EP and single covers. Erick's accidents and health struggles have also indirectly influenced the overall theme of the EP. Additional photography by Rancho Creativo Studios. 

About FALSIMONIAN:

Rooted in melodic death metal, FALSIMONIAN began as the brainchild of Jesus Fuentes and Erick Valverde in 2024, who welcomed Cesar and Mauricio in 2025 completing the band's line-up. Their sound is unique to the members' life experiences as bi-cultural individuals hailing from the harsh desert in the US-Mexico border. 

With members based out of El Paso, Texas, USA; Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, USA; and Leon, Guanajuato, Mexico, FALSIMONIAN incorporate genre influences from Mexican folk and Latin-American roots music, as well as jazz. Musically, the band draw inspiration from metal acts including OPETH, DARK TRANQUILLITY, DREAM THEATER, CHILDREN OF BODOM, and BORN OF OSIRIS. 

FALSIMONIAN take their name from the Latin word "falsimonia", meaning: trick, imposition, deception. Situated in a fictitious dystopian world, the forthcoming EP explores the mundane daily realities of survival in the midst of dark times of war, hate and manipulation. For Survival arrives on November 7, 2026.

Erick Valverde - Vocals
Jesus Fuentes Valverde - Guitars, Keyboards
Cesar Robles Sanchez - Lead Guitars

GIRISH AND THE CHRONICLES Share New Single "A New Spark" + Official Video

Today, GIRISH AND THE CHRONICLES share their new single and official video, “A New Spark,” ahead of the release of their new album ‘Disintegrate,’ scheduled for release on November 20th via Frontiers Music Srl.

 

Girish Pradhan states:

“It was a small idea that I had recorded back in 2019 during the ‘Rock The Highway’ era, and now it has finally found its home in our new album. I think this is the highlight of the album for all of us. There are times in life when we feel stuck, surrounded by negativity, and desperate for new beginnings. ‘A New Spark’ is a song about the search for that ‘spark,’ an inspiration, which helps us shed the darkness and gather strength and courage to explore new possibilities in life. There is a whole other world out there.”

Watch the Official Video for “A New Spark” Below:

The band is also thrilled to announce that they will support Guns N’ Roses on November 14th in Bangalore, India.

 

They commented: “Supporting GNR for the third time is a surreal feeling, considering how small we started and how far we’ve come as a band. It used to be a daydream that nobody would dare to dream, especially in a relatively hidden Himalayan state like Sikkim. This is literally us living our dreams!”

Over the last few years, GIRISH AND THE CHRONICLES have evolved from one of India’s best-kept hard rock secrets into a truly international force. Fueled by extensive European touring and a widely acclaimed appearance on the hit American television show “America’s Got Talent,” the band has experienced remarkable growth, expanding its audience far beyond its homeland and earning recognition among rock fans across the globe.

Now, with their highly anticipated new album for Frontiers Music Srl, GIRISH AND THE CHRONICLES take another step forward. While staying true to the melodic hard rock and classic heavy metal foundations that have always shaped their sound, the band has also explored some new territory on ‘Disintegrate.’

The band comments:

“With this album, we just wanted to play around with the sound a bit. It’s heavier, groovier and darker in places, with some alternative elements coming through, but it still feels like GATC. We didn’t want to overthink it. We just went with what sounded good.

They continue, “There are definitely some different sides of us on this record, both musically and lyrically, and we just want our old and new fans to hear it for themselves.”

At the heart of it all is frontman Girish Pradhan, whose unmistakable voice continues to set the band apart. Possessing a rare combination of power, range, grit, and emotion, Girish channels the spirit of the great rock singers of the past while maintaining a personality and charisma that are entirely his own.

This new release captures a band continuing to grow while staying true to the spirit, passion, and songwriting that have defined GIRISH AND THE CHRONICLES from day one.

‘Disintegrate’ is the sound of GIRISH AND THE CHRONICLES moving forward while remaining true to who they are.
