NUNSLAUGHTER Unleashes New Single "Jesus Fu*king Dies" + Official Music Video

Cleveland’s unholy denizens of the underground, NUNSLAUGHTER, proudly unleash their new single, "Jesus Fu*king Dies," off of their upcoming BLKIIBLK debut album, 'Satanic Chaos Legions,' set for release on June 26, 2026. "Jesus Fu*king Dies" arrives alongside an official music video.

On the new track, vocalist Don of the Dead comments:

"This song germinated with one line from our guitarist, Tormentor, when he asked 'Did Mary cum when Jesus was conceived?' I find the whole Gospel absurd but the best part of the story is where 'Jesus Fu*king Dies.'"

Watch the Music Video for "Jesus Fu*king Dies" Below:

A constant in extreme metal and an unyielding inspiration for generations of black metal and thrash provocateurs, NUNSLAUGHTER’s latest hymnal of brutality kicks off with a call to irreligious arms and doesn’t let go until the bloody end. Tracks like the grinding “Peukharist”or the uncompromising “Unsacrament” batter the senses like the bastard offspring of Slayerand 'Earth A.D.'-era Misfits, inverting crucifixes while worshipping at the hoof of the ibex.

Having already set fire to the international metal scene with festival appearances across the globe and a European tour on the way, make no mistake: NUNSLAUGHTER’s campaign of world-defilement is just beginning.

On the upcoming album, Don of the Dead shares:

"With BLKIIBLK on our side NUNSLAUGHTER can ram the black horn of Satan down the throats of every metalhead on the planet, spitting fresh venom and blistering hatred directly into the rotting face of Christianity with 'Satanic Chaos Legions.'"

Pre-Order 'Satanic Chaos Legions' HERE

NUNSLAUGHTER will hit the road this summer for European tour.

Don of the Dead - Vocals

Wrath - Drums

Malum - Bass

Tormentor - Guitar

ATAVISTIA Unveils New Single and Music Video "To A New World" From Upcoming Album Old Gods Awaken

ATAVISTIA returns with a powerful new single and music video, "To A New World", offering a compelling glimpse into their forthcoming album Old Gods Awaken, set for release on May 15th, 2026 via Blood Blast Distribution.

"To A New World" opens with a tribal introduction built on folk instrumentation and layered vocal chants before surging into its driving main melody. The track carries a deceptively simple structure while weaving together rich sonic elements that reward repeated listens. At its core, the song explores themes of change and growth, leaving space for listeners to interpret its meaning through their own personal lens.

The upcoming album Old Gods Awaken showcases ATAVISTIA’s most folk-inspired material to date. Featuring shorter, catchier, and more direct compositions, the record reflects the band’s evolving creative direction while staying rooted in their signature sound. Drawing influence from folk metal, black metal, and a wide spectrum of styles in between, the album captures the band’s commitment to following inspiration wherever it leads.

Known for their fluid approach to genre and songwriting, ATAVISTIA continues to push boundaries while maintaining the essence that defines them.

ATAVISTIA lineup:

Mattias Sippola - Guitar, Vocals, Composition, Production
Max Sepulveda - Drums, Engineering
Elia Baghbaniyan - Guitar
Spencer Budworth - Bass, Vocals

About ATAVISTIA:

Formed in 2017 in Vancouver, Canada, ATAVISTIA takes their fans on a spellbinding journey though vast sonic landscapes of snow covered forests, desolate tundras, and permafrost-laden landscapes. Fans of WINTERSUN, ENSIFERUM, DIMMU BORGIR, and XANTHOCHROID will be enthralled by the elements of melodic death metal, black metal, and Scandinavian folk that is intricately woven together throughout their diverse soundscape.

Taking inspiration from the majestic natural landscapes of their homeland, earthly seasons, and ancient Norse culture, ATAVISTIA’s grandiose sound matches these lyrical themes in an impressive symphony of destruction. Their debut EP, One With The Sun (2017) introduced their unique blend of beauty and ferocity, which they followed up with a stormy full-length in 2020 through The Winter Way. The next two releases, the full-length Cosmic Warfare (2023) and the EP Inane Duncam (2024), saw the band spreading their wings and exploring a wider variety of influences. Through it all, ATAVISTIA balances graceful melodies with a brutal rhythmic cacophony, swirling elegance and fury together like a ferocious northern blizzard.

On stage, ATAVISTIA is a force of nature, like waves crashing against a rocky shore. Their music washes over audiences worldwide, leaving them gasping for more long after the last note has faded. They have toured Europe twice alongside notable acts such as SKÁLMÖLD, METSATÖLL, and SEVEN SPIRES, and have opened locally for MOONSPELL, ELEINE, and OCEANS OF SLUMBER. ATAVISTIA has firmly established its presence in a niche among a wide swath of metal genres.

Are you ready to lose yourself in the juxtaposition of lush and arid, the dichotomy of hope and despair, and welcome the inevitable and beautiful end?

Modern Metal Supergroup CYHRA Release Empowering New Single "Bleed With Pride"

Swedish melodic metal supergroup CYHRA (Featuring AMARANTHE Co-Founder Jake E and current THE HALO EFFECT, KAMELOT, THE CROWN, and SUBURBAN TRIBE members) unveil an epic modern metal offering in their empowering new single "Bleed With Pride". As CYHRA celebrates their 10th anniversary year, the new release arrives alongside the announcement of the band's fourth studio album Requiem For A Pipe Dream scheduled to be released on June 5th, 2026, via Reigning Phoenix Music. 

CYHRA frontman Jake E comments, "'Bleed With Pride' is about learning to trust your scars instead of hiding them. For a long time, I carried the weight of the past like something that needed to be buried. But the truth is, those wounds kept me honest. They became my compass.

This song is about the internal war — the silent thunder you fight inside — and choosing not to let it drown you. If I’m going to bleed, it’s not out of shame anymore. It’s with pride. Because every scar means I survived, I rebuilt, and I kept burning."


"Bleed With Pride" aptly encompasses the central themes of the forthcoming Requiem For A Pipe Dream. This rhythmic track, fueled by a driving momentum, delivers a resonating effect alongside the emotive lyrics. CYHRA's high-octane sound is captivating and energizing; providing encouragement and strength to keep progressing despite past difficulties.

About CYHRA
As they approach their 10th anniversary next year, CYHRA have carved out a notable place in the metal scene since their founding in 2016 by Jake E (AMARANTHE Co-Founder) and Jesper Strömblad (THE HALO EFFECT, formerly IN FLAMES). They were soon joined by drummer Alex Landenburg (KAMELOT, Luca Turilli’s RHAPSODY), guitarist Euge Valovirta (SUBURBAN TRIBE), and bassist Peter Iwers (THE HALO EFFECT, formerly IN FLAMES). Their debut album Letters To Myself” was released in 2017 to glowing reviews, catapulting the group to global stages, crowned with a massive North American tour supporting SABATON and KREATOR.
 
Following Iwers’ departure, Valovirta also took over bass duties, and the band released their second album No Halos In Hell in 2019, which blended groovy metal with a poppy flair and featured the hit single "Out Of My Life," amassing about 11 million streams on Spotify. Their success continued with a European tour with BATTLE BEAST, UK dates alongside DELAIN, headline shows in select countries including Finland and Japan, and performances at major festivals like Masters of Rock, Bloodstock Open Air, Sabaton Open Air, and 70,000 Tons of Metal.
 
In 2020, guitarist Marcus Sunesson (RONNIE ATKINS, THE CROWN) joined, expanding the line-up. The pandemic pause allowed the band to craft their third album The Vertigo Trigger, released in 2023. The album’s tour brought them back to Finland to open for SMASH INTO PIECES and to headline shows in early 2024. Quietly beginning their fourth album, CYHRA ended the cycle with a Scandinavian tour with EVERGREY, leading into 2025 and through to 2026 with a series of new single releases. Requiem For A Pipe Dream lands on June 5th, 2026, via Reigning Phoenix Music.

ABOUT THE PLOT IN YOU

During 2023, The Plot In You kickstarted a new era with 'Vol. 1' with Divide, having generated over 44 million Spotify streams and counting followed by Left Behind, exploding to the tune of 82.9 million Spotify streams with no signs of slowing down. Upon the arrival of ForgottenRevolver praised it among the “6 Best New Songs Right Now”The Plot In You's 'Vol. 2' EP is a powerful showcase of the band's evolution, blending raw emotion with polished musicality, and stands as a testament to the band's growth and artistic maturity, captivating listeners with its intense yet introspective narratives with tracks ClosureDon’t Look Away, and All That I Can Give further solidifying their place as one of the genre's most compelling acts. Built on the momentum of the previous installments, the penultimate 'Vol. 3' sees the band pushing their sonic and emotional boundaries even further, amplifying their inimitable blend of industrial-tinged textures, crushing heaviness and deeply introspective songwriting, leading up to the grand finale of 'The Volume Series', out Friday, July 10.

In the quartet's latest offering and first release from 'Vol. 4', "You Get One" comes out of the gates swinging with existential fury. With haunting, glitchy electronics, a driving rhythm, and vocals that fluctuate from eerily digitalized murmurs to in-your-face screams, the track serves as an observation on the counterintuitive nature of current society, and the expanse between being a human versus what it means to be human.

ABOUT THE ALBUM
Armored Saint return in 2026 with Emotion Factory Reset—their long-awaited ninth studio album and a powerful follow-up to 2020’s Punching the Sky, which stormed the charts and proved the band is still firing on all cylinders decades into their career.

True to form, Armored Saint refuse to repeat themselves. Emotion Factory Resetcaptures a band that continues to evolve while staying rooted in the heavy metal foundation they helped build in the early ’80s. The result is an album that feels both classic and forward-moving—driven by sharp songwriting, dynamic arrangements, and the unmistakable voice of John Bush leading the charge.

Tracks like “Close to the Bone,” “Every Man-Any Man,” and “Hit a Moonshot”showcase everything that makes Armored Saint essential: powerful riffs, groove-driven rhythms, and a willingness to push beyond traditional metal boundaries. There’s a confidence here—honed over decades—that allows the band to experiment without ever losing their identity.

Produced by bassist Joey Vera and brought to life by a top-tier production team, Emotion Factory Reset delivers a modern, punchy sound while preserving the grit and authenticity longtime fans expect. Lyrically, the album explores perspective, resilience, and clarity in a chaotic world—inviting listeners to reflect without preaching, and leaving space for their own interpretation.

This Boone’s Overstock exclusive edition is pressed on Citrine-colored vinyl and limited to just 300 hand-numbered copies, making it a must-have for collectors and diehard fans alike.

Armored Saint aren’t chasing the past—they’re building on it. And Emotion Factory Reset proves they’re still one of the most vital forces in American heavy metal.

Green Carnation Premiere A Dark Poem, Part II: Sanguis

Had Green Carnation never returned from hiatus, the Norwegian prog bards would always be remembered for completing one of metal’s most ambitious individual epics. However, there was one tale - or three, to be exact - that eluded them for more than three decades, until last year. Now, after reaching crushing new highs on Part I of their forthcoming album trilogy, the band are descending into the deepest, darkest and most personal depths of their storied career with A Dark Poem, Part II: Sanguis.

A Dark Poem, Part II: Sanguis comes out tomorrow, Friday, April 3 on Season of Mist, but you can hear all six heart-wrenching songs today by listening to the full album stream, which premieres on the Season of Mist YouTube channel at Noon Eastern Time.

During the premiere, the band will chat with fans about the latest installment in their forthcoming album trilogy, as well as what the future might bring on Part III.  

A Dark Poem, Part II: Sanguis Full Album Stream Premiere Below.

“Sanguis invites listeners into our darkest inner rooms with some of the most raw and vulnerable songs that we’ve ever written”, Nordhus says.

“The lyrics are so personal that I had to go many rounds with myself over whether or not to tone them down”, says Sordal. “In the end, I chose to keep them as honest as possible”.

“Part II deal with personal loss and sadness”, shares Nordhus, though as he’s quick to explain, Sanguis isn’t all gloom and doom. “Those feelings can be almost comforting, like stories you hear about the calm that people experience before they die”. Indeed, if A Dark Poem contains a silver lining, it’s in the creative partnership that’s helped Green Carnation endure for more than three decades. “It would be different if I had only known Stein Roger for two months”, Nordhus continues in explaining how he gives voice to the words of his dear friend. “It’s easy for me to understand and relate to all of his struggles, all of his pleasures and joys, because I’ve been a part of them as well”.  

Part II introduces more peaks and valleys into the overarching narrative of A Dark Poem, but nowhere does the album’s bleeding-heart core shine through more achingly than its closing ballad. Graced by Ingrid Ose’s soothing flute, “Lunar Tale” positively sparkles, even as it casts a rather grim beacon into the future. “The end justifies the means, you’ll see”, Nordhus sings with eerily quiet confidence. As the piano seeps beneath the moonlight, Sanguisleaves fans hanging in suspense over where this trilogy will end.

Saint Agnes Unleash "The Ghost" Video

London's Saint Agnes drag you onto the dancefloor with new single "The Ghost," a blood-rush of punk-industrial beats and midnight euphoria. It's the fourth glimpse into their forthcoming album, Your God Fearing Days Are About To Begin, and their most immediate collision of vulnerability and physicality yet.

Watch the video Below.

Frontperson Kitty A. Austen explains, "I wrote this song about often feeling like I disappear, I become invisible in certain settings, certain situations. Words fail me and I merge into the background. I envisioned dancing surrounded by people but feeling completely on my own. It's the soundtrack to a hot, sweaty night in a vampire nightclub, the blood rave just before dawn. Euphoria washes over the bodies as the dark driving beats pulsate through the club. We've turned my sadness into a banger and now I can dance to it."

It's a track that turns isolation into movement, a solitary experience reframed as something communal and physical.

Your God Fearing Days Are About To Begin is due for release on May 29 via Spinefarm.

Pre-order the record HERE.

Kitty's voice, vision and volatility shape every inch of the band's evolving world. At its core is her creative partnership with Jon James Tufnell, a relationship defined by tension, trust, and a shared commitment to building something immersive and all-consuming.

Drawing from the intensity of Nine Inch Nails, the genre-bending chaos of Poppy and the euphoric, cinematic storytelling of Lorde, Saint Agnes make music for bodies in motion, where confessional lyrics, raw guitar and pulsing beats collide in something both confrontational and rapturous.

Self-confessed "control freaks," the band obsessively curate every aspect of their work. This time, they pushed further, bringing in mixer Jim Pinder (Sleep Token, Bring Me The Horizon) to sharpen the impact of their production without compromising their vision. The result is their most direct and fully realized record to date.

Having recently played shows with Last Train (in France), Ghostkid (in Germany), Vukovi (in the UK) and a well-received performance at SXSW (in the US) Saint Agnes are now out on the UK road again, with INME.

ABOUT SAINT AGNES:
Saint Agnes have built a loyal following through two EPs, two critically acclaimed albums, and over 12 million Spotify streams. Backed by BBC Radio 1 support and explosive sets at Download, 2000trees and Hellfest, they've proven their power live, including sold-out headline shows across the UK and Europe.

SEPULTURA RELEASE NEW SINGLE 'BEYOND THE DREAM'

As the curtain falls on an extraordinary career spanning more than four decades, SEPULTURA are preparing to close their final chapter at the end of this year. With over 40 years of band history, 14 gold records, and performances across more than 80 countries, SEPULTURA stand as Brazil’s uncompromising emissary to the global stage and one of today’s most influential metal bands. 

Currently bringing their pioneering sound to audiences worldwide on the 'Celebrating Life Through Death' farewell tour, the question has arisen: how should SEPULTURA mark the end of such a monumental journey? The answer came naturally: By capturing a final creative moment and preserving it for posterity. 

Last month, SEPULTURA announced their final release, The Cloud of Unknowing EP, due to be released on April 24th.

The band are proud to reveal the EP's second single, the deeply resonant 'Beyond the Dream'.

SEPULTURA commented,

“Beyond the Dream” emerges as one of the most emblematic moments of Sepultura’s final chapter, serving as a poetic reflection of a journey shaped by decades of albums, tours, and life on the road.
 
This previously unreleased composition fulfills a long-standing desire of the band to explore the ballad format, blending Sepultura’s identity with the melodic sensitivity of renowned collaborators. To bring this project to life, Sepultura enlisted the essential collaboration of Sérgio Britto and Tony Bellotto of Titãs—musicians who share a long history with the band and are widely recognized as specialists in the genre, as well as composers of classics such as “Polícia.”
 
The result of a direct partnership between members of Sepultura and Titãs, the song celebrates the connection between artists who share the stage and a deep passion for creation. The outcome is a piece that brings great satisfaction to everyone involved, establishing itself as both an emotional and historical milestone featured on the band’s final EP, released in this very year that marks Sepultura’s official farewell.”


Listen to 'Beyond the Dream' below:

Pre-order The Cloud of Unknowing EP:

UADA Announces 'Devoid of Light (10th Anniversary Edition), Reveals Delays for 'Interwoven'

Enigmatic black metal masters UADA is celebrating the 10 year anniversary of their debut album, 'Devoid of Light,' with a special reissue! Originally released in 2016, 'Devoid of Light' remains a remarkably focused debut - just five tracks, a little over thirty minutes - and yet a fully formed statement. The 'Devoid of Light (10th Anniversary Edition)' returns in an expanded form. Remastered by Arthur Rizk, who previously handled mixing and mastering for UADA's sophomore album 'Cult of a Dying Sun' and mastering for the acoustic album 'Interwoven,' the material gains depth without losing the character of the original recordings. This edition also includes previously unseen photography by Peter Beste, alongside rare archival material, expanded liner notes, and an exclusive bonus track. It will be released on July 17, 2026 via Eisenwald in CD format and 3 vinyl color variations; it is now available for pre-orders HERE.

Moreover, UADA's upcoming acoustic album has been delayed. The original April 10 release date will still be honored digitally, but physical copies will not be shipped until late May due to delays at the manufacturing plant. The album represents an acoustic journey tracing one song from each chapter of UADA's discography as well as various covers from the bands who've inspired them. 'Interwoven' will also be released via Eisenwald and is now available for pre-orders HERE.

ICYMI: UADA recently unveiled a haunting version of ROME's "Der Brandtaucher." The release comes just before UADA embarks on their next North American journey alongside MORTIIS, in which Jerome Reuter’s ROME will be among the support. The song can be heard now below.

UADA comments, "Originally composed by Jerome Reuter and Patrick Damiani, this rendition was the final track chosen for Interwoven. Having followed Rome since 2008’s Masse Mensch Material, “Der Brandtaucher” held deep personal resonance, especially during the most difficult chapter of my life. Its inclusion was not simply artistic - it was necessary."

In addition, UADA has joined forces with industrial metal artist MORTIIS for a very special co-headliner, featuring exclusive anniversary sets and supporting performances by Jerome Reuter’s ROME and WRAITH KNIGHT. UADA will be performing their seminal 2016 debut album 'Devoid of Light' in its entirety + a special CERMONIAL CASTINGS 30-year anniversary set featuring Wraith Knight. In addition, MORTIIS shall be performing songs from his groundbreaking 2001 full-length, 'The Smell Of Rain,' along with other volumes of dystopian despair. The full itinerary can be found below while tickets are now available HERE.

Moreover, after much demand from fans, UADA will be returning to Milwaukee Metal Fest for the second time since leaving their mark during the 2024 edition. The festival will take place at The Rave/Eagle's Club from June 4 - 7, with UADA performing on the 7th. More info and tickets can be found HERE.

ROTTING CHRIST Reissue Sleep of the Angels

Season of Mist is reissuing Sleep of the Angels, the fifth full-length album by Greek legends Rotting Christ. Originally released in January 1999 on Century Media, the album will now be available on vinyl through the band’s current label home.

Sleep of the Angels represents the furthest point from Rotting Christ's black metal origins. It is a record defined by melodic weight, brooding atmosphere, and a gloomy romanticism that remains striking in its internal coherence. At its center is the interplay between the heavy guitar work of Sakis Tolis and a constant, gauzy keyboard presence that lends the whole record an almost ecclesiastical quality. The result is the most gothic album in the band's ever-evolving discography.

Season of Mist will reissue Sleep of the Angels on June 19, 2026

Formed in Athens in 1987, Rotting Christ are one of extreme metal's most enduring and restlessly shape-shifting forces. By the time Sleep of the Angels was recorded in September 1998, Rotting Christ had spent three consecutive albums methodically expanding from the rawness of their early catalogue toward atmosphere, melody and a dark romanticism. The album closed a trilogy begun with Triarchy of the Lost Lovers(1996) and continued through A Dead Poem (1997), before the band pivoted again toward heavier, more industrial-inflected territory on Khronos (2000).

Guest contributors to Sleep of the Angels include Waldemar Sorychta on lead guitar on "Victoriatus" and "You My Flesh," and vocalist Eddy Kante on the partially German language "Der Perfekte Traum."

Third Man Records Announces Ted Lucas’ Images of Life

Today, Third Man Records announces Images of Life, a career-spanning, 3xLP retrospective boxset illuminating the staggering breadth and depth of Lucas’ work, out May 22nd.

 

In conjunction, they digitally release disc two, Rainy Days (1970-1974), available to stream in its entirety today. Disc one, Strange Mysterious Sounds (1965-1970), highlights Lucas’ flirtation with psychedelic major label clout via his bands the Spike Drivers, the Misty Wizards and the Horny Toads. Disc two, Rainy Days (1970-1974) contains the solo acoustic warmth and charm most similar to the music found on his self-titled album. Finally, disc three, Impossible Love (1979), is Lucas’ lost second album. The album, produced by the legendary Don Was, highlights Lucas’ smooth songwriting and near-"yacht rock," while never betraying the true artistry and craft of a once-in-a-generation talent.

PRE-ORDER IMAGES OF LIFE

 

Rainy Days Available

On Streaming Now

Rainy Days (1970-1974) captures Lucas’ early ’70s period, the most consequential of his career. It was at this time that a rejected Warner Bros. songwriter demo was transformed into one of the most significant (and overlooked) private-press folk albums ever made. The compositions Lucas created between 1970 and 1974 represent the  peak of his creative work, and the decisions he made about when and how this music saw release (if it was released at all) sealed his fate to be largely unappreciated in his lifetime. Rainy Days features stunning live performances, unreleased studio tracks, and intimate home recordings that reveal a musician at peak expressive power.

Dominum Unveil New Single + Music Video "The Circus is in Town"

DOMINUM are back. The rising stars of modern metal offer the first taste of their upcoming album Night Is Calling, set for release on July 3 via Napalm Records. "The Circus is in Town" serves as both the lead single and the album opener, lifting the curtain on the thrilling and mad world of Dr. Dead's band's third offering.
 
Following their previous album The Dead Don't Die (2024), which stormed into the Top 10 of the German charts, "The Circus is in Town" delivers once again with infectious riffs and catchy choruses. DOMINUM capture this gripping atmosphere in a spectacular music video — no one can escape this dark circus!
 
Dr. Dead comments on "The Circus is in Town":
"The Circus is in Town. There's no point in looking away. We're coming — city by city. Unstoppable. Real people. Real monsters. Real nights. You're part of it. Join us. Night Is Calling."

Watch the official music video for "The Circus is in Town" Below:

DOMINUM, led by mastermind and singer Felix Heldt — better known as Dr. Dead — open the next chapter of their dark, theatrical universe with their new full-length Night Is Calling. With their bombastic sound and outstanding stage presence, the band continues its rapid ascent on the international metal scene, without losing sight of its strengths: theatrical, melodic, and uncompromising modern metal — driven by the dark charisma of Dr. Dead and his zombies. One thing is certain: The Living Dead Squad continues to grow.
 
Night Is Calling is now available for pre-order, with selected formats including the bonus album Live at Wacken 2025.
 
Dr. Dead on Night is Calling:
"They grow up so fast." – Ugh. It makes me sick.

"And now I feel it myself: My zombies have grown up. Our creation… has grown up too. But unlike the pitiful rest, we don't mourn our childhood. No. We revel in who we are. Being a child, being an adult — what does that even mean? — the world lies at our feet, and we can do whatever we damn well please. Believe me from firsthand experience: an army of zombies makes everything a hell of a lot easier… and way more fun with every bit of trouble getting the punch it deserves. We have the power to reshape our world. And oh, we do.

'Night is Calling' — This is our outlet.
Stronger melodies, heavier riffs, sharper, unflinching lyrics — honesty as our deadliest weapon. We are who we are. And you… you're in this whether you like it or not. The undead are on the march, more relentless than ever. Join us – immediately, willingly… or a little later when we come to your neighborhood. Either way… we’ll be seeing you. —Dr. Dead"

Joan As Police Woman announces 'Real Life Evolution' album, releases intimate versions of 'Flushed Chest' and 'The Ride'

Renowned NYC artist Joan As Police Woman announces her new album “Real Life Evolution”, out June 12 via UK independent Reveal Records -- on CD, Limited Edition exclusive red marble vinyl and digitally. Exactly 20 years since releasing her much-loved debut album "Real Life", she has re-recorded and imagined the album in full with guests including Iggy Pop and Krystle Warren.

Joan Wasser, known professionally as Joan As Police Woman since 2004, is a critically acclaimed musician and producer, dubbed “the coolest woman in pop” (The Times) and “one of the 21st century’s best musicians” (The Economist). As a singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, her music defies easy categorization, crafting her own sound that blends various genres. She has released ten albums of original material, two cover albums, and an anthology.

Twenty years in the making, this record was developed through countless nights on stage. These new arrangements are brought to life by the musical brilliance of the players who helped define their sound. In order of appearance, it features contributions by Will Graefe, Jeremy Gustin, Tony Scherr, Parker Kindred, Danny Blume, Krystle Warren, Oren Bloedow, Thomas Bartlett and Iggy Pop.

Now Joan As Police Woman is releasing 'Real Life Evolution' versions of two of the tracks from this album -- 'Flushed Chest', which was recorded at Hayyam Studios in Istanbul by Ceylan Akcar and Sinan Sakizli, and 'The Ride' was recorded at The Owl Music Parlor in Brooklyn by Adam Sachs.

'Flushed Chest (Real Life Evolution version)' is the latest video offering from 'The Real Life Anniversary Sessions', accompanied by Will Graefe and Jeremy Gustinand filmed by Ehud Lazin, following her powerful, stripped-down video performance of 'Anyone'.

"I wrote 'Flushed Chest' shortly after I read “Time’s Arrow” by Martin Amis. It’s the story of a life, Jeff’s life, told in backwards chronological order. I wrote this one when I was in a period of intense listening to The Wailers; Bunny Wailer, Peter Tosh and Bob Marley, one of the greatest bands of all time. This song works well with the trio so we didn’t stray far from the original recording. Singing the 3-part harmonies with Will and Jeremy is a delight." says Joan Wasser. 

"'Real Life Evolution' is ten reimagined versions of every song from the original 'Real Life' album. Some transformations are subtle. Others are seismic. All of them were made with an entirely new cast of collaborators.”

Joan As Police Woman is a sought-after collaborator who has recorded and/ or performed with hundreds of artists, including Afrobeat legend Tony Allen, Lou Reed, Anohni & The Johnsons, Meshell Ndegeocello, Rufus Wainwright, John Cale, David Byrne, Dave Okumu, Chris Dowd, Lau, Scissor Sisters, Sparklehorse, Beck, Laurie Anderson, Lloyd Cole, Afel Bocoum, Dave Gahan, Tanya Donelly, David Sylvian, Steve Jansen and Damon Albarn (who duetted with Joan on her song 'Get My Bearings' and invited her to feature on the Gorillaz album 'Song Machine'). She also a member of Iggy Pop's touring band (on keys and vocals).

“Music has saved my life. I am a devotee. It’s not something I can even choose or not choose, it’s just what it is. The album Real Life holds the key to my whole life. At the time I felt compelled to get it all into one record because I couldn’t imagine a world where I’d make another," says Joan Wasser.

"Now, twenty years later (and twelve albums into my career), the dream continues to unfold. I still live to play music. The shared experience of a concert is a constant reminder of our common humanity. 'Real Life; was the spark that lit my calling as a solo artist and I’m truly excited to revisit all the songs that mean so much to me and lovers of 'Real Life'.”

As of March 31, 'Flushed Chest' and 'The Ride' are available digitally everywhere. The 'Real Life Evolution' album is out on June 12th on vinyl, CD and digitally. It can be pre-ordered via Bandcamp.

With her forthcoming Real Life 20th Anniversary Tour, Joan brings exclusive trio shows, performing the 'Real Life' album in full, along with key singles from across her catalogue, fan favourites, deep cuts, reworked covers and a few surprises!   She next performs a small handful of shows in New York City at Joe's Pub.  All tickets can be ordered at www.joanaspolicewoman.com/tour or https://linktr.ee/japw.

Oh Hiroshima Announce "And the Dead Tree Gives No Shelter" Album + Share "Broken Sunlight"

Swedish post-rock duo Oh Hiroshima return with their latest album And the Dead Tree Gives No Shelter, arriving June 5 via Pelagic Records. Once again emerging from Scandinavia's rich atmospheric landscape, the record sharpens their signature balance of restraint and release, where shimmering guitars and slow-building intensity rise into cathartic peaks. Rooted in existential reflection and modern disillusionment, And the Dead Tree Gives No Shelter navigates the space between despair and meaning with a quiet defiance. Alongside the announcement, the band unveil first single "Broken Sunlight," offering an initial glimpse into the album's immersive, emotionally resonant world.

Watch the video for "Broken Sunlight" Below.

Pre-order And the Dead Tree Gives No Shelter HERE.

The band comments on the new single, "With 'Broken Sunlight,' we wanted something that hits you directly, with rhythm and melody tightly interwoven. It's about holding onto something fragile, a shard of hope in a reality that feels increasingly fractured."

Oh Hiroshima have built a reputation for transforming introspection into vast, cinematic sound. The Swedish band has spent the better part of the last decade refining a musical language that balances fragility with overwhelming emotional force. Their music exists in the space where atmosphere, melody and gradual intensity converge, where hushed textures evolve patiently into towering waves of sound. With each release, the group has deepened their identity as one of the genre’s most evocative and emotionally resonant voices.

And the Dead Tree Gives No Shelter continues Oh Hiroshima's pursuit to refine the balance between vulnerability and power. At the core of their sound lies a delicate interplay between restraint and release. Their compositions carefully cultivate tension, letting each layer unfold organically: chiming guitars, distant reverberations, and minimal rhythmic pulses that feel suspended in air, all contrast against the heavily drenched power they can unleash. Whether the passage be titanic or still, Oh Hiroshima establish a sense of openness and emotional ambiguity, allowing listeners to settle into the sonic landscape as the music works its slow ascent.

Commenting on the album, the band states, "The album title And the Dead Tree Gives No Shelter is taken from T. S. Eliot's epic poem 'The Waste Land.' For this album, the dead tree works as a metaphor for ways of living that drain the world of meaning and offer no real way of navigating the hardships of life. We are living in a time when it has become harder and harder to imagine a bright future. This leaves many of us with a deep sense of hopelessness that easily breeds cynicism and apathy. In that state it becomes easy to shut the world out and give up any attempts at meaningful interaction with the world around us. A destructive cycle follows, as this leaves us with no way of sheltering ourselves from our initial despair at the state of things. But these songs also aim to paint something meaningful and hopeful. A form of idealization not rooted in naivety but in realism, because we need ideals to gather enough strength to leave the shelter less dead trees of our lives behind."

Oh Hiroshima consistently demonstrate a growing confidence in exploring the edges of their sound. Backed by special guests, a whole array of instrumentation and a growing pallet for wider experimentation, And the Dead Tree Gives No Shelter evokes Oh Hiroshima's unique emotional landscape, each composition a relentlessly captivating journey that inspires reflection and release. Every motif, choice and touch contribute to the shifting terrains that gradually unfold into luminous intensity. By blending harmonics, immersive production and a deeply intuitive sense of pacing, Oh Hiroshima have crafted an album that is woven with intimacy and expansively felt.

"We tracked the foundation of the record (drums, bass and electric guitars) at Studio Gröndahl with Karl Daniel Lidén (Swarm of the Sun), who has worked with many really good bands before, he took great care in the drum setup and recording, and we're especially happy with how that turned out, adds vocalist Jakob Hemström. The rest of the album was recorded in Örebro by me and my brother, with a little help from some friends of the band. Production-wise this is our most ambitious record by far because of the number of instruments and musicians that contributed. Ten additional musicians were involved this time around. Magnus Lindberg mixed and mastered the album. It's the third time in a row. He's great to work with, has a great résumé, and always delivers quality work."

Catch the band live on the following dates and at Pelagic Fest in August, with more dates to be announced soon.
