Dogma Unleash Cinematic New Single - My Matricidal

Following a breakout year that saw DOGMA sell out every European headlining show, complete its largest Latin American tour to date, and continue its rapid international ascent, the band returns today with “My Matricidal,” the highly anticipated new single and music video. 

"My Matricidal" is a theatrical collision of aggressive guitars, ritualistic percussion, haunting cinematic soundscape, soaring vocal performances, and a relentless series of sonic blows that steadily escalate toward a towering climax. The result is a dark, emotionally charged composition that expands the band's signature blend of hard rock, metal, and provocative storytelling.

Accompanying the single is an ambitious new music video that expands the narrative introduced in “Fate Unblinds,” revealing another key piece of the puzzle while raising new questions about everything that came before.

Regarding the new release, Lilith comments, "The themes explored in ‘My Matricidal’ are not really about betrayal. They are about recognition. There comes a moment in every person's life when something they believed, trusted, or accepted can no longer withstand reality. Most people spend their energy focusing on the deception itself, but I think the more important question is what happens after the truth becomes impossible to ignore. Some people retreat into anger or denial. Others choose to learn from it and move forward with greater clarity. That moment of choice has always fascinated me because it ultimately shapes the direction of a person's life. The truth reveals itself in time. What you do with it is your responsibility. You shape your fate."

The release arrives at a pivotal moment in DOGMA's continued growth. During the first half of 2026, the band completed its largest European and Latin American touring cycle to date, performing for thousands of fans across both continents. Every European headlining show sold out, including appearances in London, Manchester, Wolverhampton, Bristol, Eindhoven, Hamburg, and Munich.

The momentum continues this summer as DOGMA returns to Europe for appearances at major festivals including Copenhell, Basinfire, Tuska, Rockharz, Rock Imperium, and Resurrection Fest, alongside a special headlining performance in Istanbul.

With the release of “My Matricidal,” DOGMA maintains a single position: The truth reveals itself in time.

Upcoming festival dates:

Jun 29: Istanbul, Türkiye · Blind
Jul 2: Ballenstedt, Germany - Rockharz Festival
Jul 4: Viveiro, Spain · Resurrection Fest
Jul 5: Cartagena, Spain · El Batel Park

Norwegian "Tundra Rockers" Slomosa Drop Heavy-Hitting KEXP Live Session

Norway’s sludge-fueled groove titans Slomosa have unveiled a blistering five-song live session for Seattle’s KEXP, recorded during the band's first-ever U.S. headlining tour this past April. Known for redefining Desert Rock into what they proudly call “Tundra Rock," the Bergen-based four-piece delivered a raw, hypnotic, and thunderous performance in the legendary KEXP studios. 

Fans can now stream the full, uninterrupted performance to experience the band's massive grooves and infectious energy firsthand.  Watch below:

Reflecting on the KEXP session, the band writes, “[...] we’ve binged down endless hours of KEXP sessions ourselves through the years. So, needless to say, it was a huge honour to be invited to do our own! [It was] slightly intimidating standing between the lights that we knew so well from the screen - but as soon as we started playing, we got into it alright.”

The KEXP session arrives as the perfect primer for the band’s U.S. fall tour as direct support for Clutch. The three-week tour promises to bring some of the loudest, most groove-driven nights of the year to cities across the country.

Ho99o9 Unleash Blistering New Anthem "Power in Numbers"

Ho99o9 return with “Power In Numbers,” a blistering new anthem that captures the band at their most direct, urgent, and confrontational. Fusing industrial hip-hop with hardcore punk intensity, the single delivers a powerful message rooted in unity, resistance, and collective strength, reinforcing the duo’s reputation as one of the most uncompromising voices in alternative music.

“Power In Numbers” is a cultural statement that channels the chaos of the current moment and emphasizes the strength of solidarity and shared resistance. The track draws from the lineage of protest music, balancing chaos and control to reinforce its central message of collective power. 

Known for pushing boundaries across genre and culture, Ho99o9 continue to blur the lines between punk, rap, industrial, and hardcore, creating music that is as politically charged as it is sonically destructive. “Power In Numbers” further expands the group’s fearless approach, designed to provoke, energize, and unite.

Recently, the band performed a free show for fans in Los Angeles at Pacific Electric, in conjunction with clothing and graphic apparel tastemakers, Civil Regime. The show served as a send-off for Ho99o9, who kick off their summer European and UK dates today (full dates below).  

Tomorrow We Escape, Ho99o9’s third album, was released recently via 999 Deathkult / Last Gang. A true amalgamation of all the band’s influences, including experimental hip-hop, digital hardcore, future-facing punk, metal, jarring industrial, and off-kilter electronics, the album is their most emotional offering to date, rooted in personal struggle and triumph. It exemplifies the outfit’s collaborative spirit, featuring Nova Twins, Chelsea Wolfe, Greg Puciato, MoRuf, Pink Siifu, and more. Trayer Tryon of avant darlings Hundred Waters (and with prod on recent breakthroughs - The Hellp, Sam Austins, 2Hollis, Alto Arc……) mixes and masters the album, further refining a new sonic landscape, harnessing the very best of the chaos that fans have come to know and love, with a fresh injection of newfound melodies, space, and crystalline production.

The New Jersey-bred outfit made its way to Los Angeles over a decade ago. Surging and seething just below the surface, the pair broke through as an apocalyptically fascinating outlier with their 2017 full-length debut, United States of Horror. In the meantime, their infamous live shows became the stuff of legend as they packed houses on their own and shared stages with everyone from Slipknot, Korn, Alice in Chains, Rob Zombie, Ministry, and The Dillinger Escape Plan to Lil Uzi Vert, Denzel Curry, Cypress Hill, and Ghostface Killah. Earning the respect of an elite cohort of peers, popular collaborations placed them toe-to-toe with Corey Taylor of Slipknot, The Prodigy, JPEGMAFIA, Ghostemane, HEALTH, 3TEETH, and N8NOFACE, among others. Jack Black made an appearance in their KULT CABLE series while they guested on The Eric Andre Show. They’ve received further acclaim from The New York Times, NME, The Guardian, Kerrang!, Metal Hammer, The FADER, Revolver, and more. They stand out as the rare phenomenon that can decimate Hellfest and Aftershock Festival and captivate on A COLORS SHOW.

“Power In Numbers” is available now on all streaming platforms. Stream / Get it HERE.

DEVIL’S CUT RELEASE NEW VIDEO FOR TRACK “IF I LEAVE”

DEVIL’S CUT release the official video for “If I Leave,” a hard-hitting standout from the band’s debut album, ROADKILL. Blending bruised-heart honesty with whiskey-soaked heaviness, the track finds vocalist Trey Landrum wrestling with self-doubt, regret, and the fear of losing someone before they walk away first. 

The video was directed by Zabb (Sicko, the Bloodclown, Black Metal: The Ultimate Documentary). Watch it below:

Devil’s Cut have dubbed their sound “Mossy Oak metal,” a tongue-in-cheek tribute to their Louisville, KY roots, where crushing riffs, stomping grooves, and hard-rock aggression collide with infectious country-twang melodies and unapologetic Southern identity. Equal parts dive bar and mosh pit, the band proudly wear their roots on their sleeves: Dolly and Dale tees, camo hats, NASCAR jackets, muddy trucks, cold beers, bonfires, and neon-lit nights all factor into the world they’ve built. 

Devil’s Cut will be spending much of 2026 on the road in support of their album ROADKILL, winning yet more fans with their all-in-this-together, put-a-drink-up live show, including a tour with kindred spirits Alborn.

 Check out Devil’s Cut at any of the following tour stops:

6/05 Ironton, OH - Drift Days Music Festival
6/08 Lansing, MI - Mac’s Bar

UK Progressive Metal Band Rolo Tomassi Release Video For "Tempest"; Select U.S. Dates Announced

UK progressive metal outfit Rolo Tomassi have unveiled a sparse yet striking new video for “Tempest,” a standout track taken from their recently released In The Echoes of All Dreams EP. The EP further expanded Rolo Tomassi’s boundary-pushing sound, weaving together elements of post-hardcore, metal, and ambient experimentation. 

In The Echoes of Dreams is now available on limited edition vinyl, offering fans a collectible physical edition. Get it HERE.

The band says, “We're pleased to share the video for ‘Tempest’ alongside the vinyl release of our EPIn The Echoes Of All Dreams. We can't wait to be back out playing some shows this summer and move forward with this new material, having enjoyed our 20th anniversary celebrations in 2025. Hope to see you at a show!"

The band is also playing a handful of dates in the U.S. this summer:

07/25 - Indianapolis, IN - POST Festival
07/26 - Chicago, IL - Beat Kitchen
07/28 - Pittsburgh, PA - Preserving Underground
07/31 - New York, NY - TV Eye

Since their 2005 inception in Sheffield, Rolo Tomassi have evolved from math-core prodigies into one of the UK’s most vital progressive forces. For over two decades, they have defied the rigid boundaries of heavy music, weaving a tapestry of sound that is as intellectually demanding as it is emotionally resonant. Prior to the recent EP InThe Echoes of All Dreams, the band released the full-length album, Where Myth Becomes Memory, which served as the final part in an unintended trilogy that began with 2015’s Grievances and continued with 2018’s Time Will Die And Love Will Bury It

Ho99o9 Release New Video for "Ok, I'm Reloaded"; EU/UK Summer Tour Announced

Ho99o9 continue their Tomorrow We Escape era with the release of another epic music video, this time for "OK, I’m Reloaded." The duo say, “We wanted to make a video for one of the meanest and unapologetic songs on the album, with the track paying homage to the movie Carlito’s Way & JAŸ-Z’s early albums. IYKYK.”

Having brought their incendiary live show back to the UK & Europe at the start of 2026, Ho99o9 have announced a second leg of their Tomorrow We Escape tour with a string of further dates this summer, around their already-announced and sure-to-be-epic festival appearances.

Explosive All Female Band Dogma Returns With New Track "Fate Unblinds"

Provocative hard rock force Dogma marks Good Friday with the arrival of “Fate Unblinds,” a cinematic, high-impact metal anthem that signals a bold new chapter for the band. The single is their first original release since last summer’s “Be Free,” and it lands with unmistakable intent.

Driven by frontwoman Lilith’s commanding, firebrand vocals, “Fate Unblinds” surges with thunderous guitars and ritualistic percussion, unfolding from eerie, tension-filled verses into a towering, anthemic chorus. Anchored by the declaration “my fate unblinds,” the track explores themes of revelation, faith, and the confrontation of buried truths, delivered with both raw intensity and theatrical precision.

Rising with defiant energy and an unmistakable visual identity, Dogma continues to reshape the modern metal landscape. Blending mystique, empowerment, and hook-driven heaviness, the band has rapidly emerged as a global force, with a momentum that has ignited audiences across North and South America and Europe, turning controversy and intrigue into a fast-expanding, deeply engaged fanbase.

With “Fate Unblinds,” Dogma double down on their signature fusion of rebellion, sensuality, and sonic power. Fueled by surging streams, viral traction, and sold-out shows, the band isn’t just breaking through - they’re building a phenomenon.

Lilith says, “‘Fate Unblinds’ lives in a moment you already know… even if you choose to ignore it. It’s that point where something stops feeling right, where what’s in front of you begins to crack… and still, you hold onto it. Not because you don’t see it, but because you lack the will to face it. I’ve seen it. I’ve felt it. And so have you.

We’ve all been given something and called it truth simply because it was easier. We’ve all trusted what stood beside us… without questioning what it really was. And we’ve all felt that hesitation… that moment where we knew, and still chose to stay exactly where we were. That’s not confusion. That’s weakness.

And most people live there. They protect the illusion, they defend it, they repeat it… because it allows them to avoid responsibility for what they see. I have no respect for that.

Fate doesn’t come to comfort you. It comes to test you. To confront you with what is real and force you to decide who you are when it matters. Those moments are inevitable.  You either use them to sharpen yourself… to evolve, to rise, to move forward… or you stay where it’s safe, rooted in the same place, choosing comfort over growth.

And that choice… is everything.

Dogma’s fate, your fate… unblinds…”

Watch the provocative video for “Fate Unblinds” below:

The band is also about to embark on their Time To Be Free European Tour, which includes both dates with Lord of the Lost and headlining dates.

The Callous Daoboys Release New Single - Gigantic Parasite Tongue

Alternative metal collective The Callous Daoboys return with a blazing new single, “Gigantic Parasite Tongue.”  The track is the first new music from the band since the release of their 2025 acclaimed recent album, I Don’t Want to See You In Heaven.

The Daoboys’ Carson Pace shares, “This song is going to change the world.”

Dan Hodsdon adds, “Meshuggah playing Future Breed Machine live at Download 2005.”

The unsettling video for “Gigantic Parasite Tongue” was directed by Sam Hahn and is a haunting departure from their earlier visuals.  The story follows a modern angel who is mercilessly kidnapped and dragged away. Bound and powerless, he becomes the victim of a brutal ritual, his wings torn from him in a desperate attempt to transfer divinity to another.

The Callous Daoboys will be touring throughout the year, beginning with a North American tour with Arm’s Length, kicking off in Ottawa on April 21st.

About The Callous Daoboys 

A feral, genre-detonating collective from Atlanta, The Callous Daoboys don’t just flirt with chaos; they weaponize it. Their sound is a whiplash-inducing riot, spasming between metalcore violence, nü-metal sleaze, noise rock exorcisms, and swaggering rock ’n roll like a car with no brakes and everything on fire. 

They’ve left a trail of stunned crowds alongside acts like TesseracT, Protest the Hero, and SeeYouSpaceCowboy, while tearing through international festival stages like a controlled collapse. Celebrity Therapist (2022) cracked the door open; I Don’t Want to See You in Heaven (2025), produced by Dom Maduri, kicks it off the hinges and sets the frame ablaze.

Plenty of bands claim they balance chaos and melody. The Callous Daoboys don’t balance anything; they overload it. Noise rock isn’t revived here; it’s resurrected, reanimated, and sent rampaging through the streets. Across their discography, they’ve proven one thing with absolute clarity: subtlety is dead, and they killed it on purpose.

Modern Metalcore Band Downswing Release New Music Video for “In a Daze”

Albany, New York’s metal powerhouse DOWNSWING releases a brand new music video for their track “In a Daze,” today.  The track is found on the band’s recent album, And Everything Was Dark

Downswing’s Nick Manzella says, “On a record full of heavy riffs and breakdowns, ‘In A Daze’ pulls everything back and exposes a more vulnerable side of our band. The director, Garrett Drake, did an amazing job at bringing Harrison’s lyrics to life and capturing the emotion of the song through the visuals. I think the video shows what it means to truly love something that is destroying you but letting it happen anyway because it’s all you have left.”

Watch it below.

Downswing is also embarking on a national tour, supporting Zero 9:36 and Elijah. The tour kicks off on April 1st in Denver, CO, and wraps up on April 28 in Roseville, CA. Full dates are below.

Since forming in 2016, Downswing have steadily evolved into a modern metal powerhouse defined by groove, atmosphere, and emotional weight. Downswing is comprised of Harrison Seanor, guitarist Anthony Salvaggio, bassist Chris Arnold, and drummer Nick Manzella.

Crafted with clarity and impact in mind, And Everything Was Dark expands on the sonic foundation laid by the band’s earlier work while pushing into bold new territory. Gargantuan riffs and crushing breakdowns collide with massive hooks, a layered atmosphere, and lyrics that resonate more deeply than ever before.

COUNTRY ROCK POWERHOUSE KASEY TYNDALL TEAMS UP WITH PLATINUM-SELLING ROCK BAND POP EVIL FOR NEW SINGLE, “MAYBE YOU’RE THE ONE”:

Country-rock standout Kasey Tyndall joins forces with platinum-selling rock band Pop Evil for the powerful new single, “Maybe You’re The One.” The track delivers a soaring call-and-response rock ballad driven by grit, emotion, and arena-ready energy.

Pop Evil’s Leigh Kakaty had most of the song written, but wanted to partner with a female country artist who shared the song's vision. With Pop Evil and Tyndall already labelmates, the partnership came together naturally. The artists met in Nashville last fall to record the track with producer Derek Wells (known for work with HARDY, Jordan Davis, Maddie & Tae, and Post Malone).

Tyndall says, “As I established on my last record, rock music has always been a big influence on my sound.  I knew I wanted to embrace it even more by expanding my audience to that genre.  When someone suggested a collaboration with Pop Evil, it was a no-brainer -  their music is so authentic. When I met Leigh, he was so passionate about the song that the recording process was a breeze, as he incorporated both our sounds. I’m excited to introduce myself to Pop Evil’s fans and the rock world in general. I cannot wait to see what happens next.”

Kakaty adds, “Sometimes the one you overlook is the one who never left - the steady heartbeat in the background, loving you quietly through every storm, waiting not to be chosen out of convenience, but finally seen for what they’ve always been: home.”

Known for explosive live performances, acclaimed songwriting, and a debut album praised by American Songwriter for its near-perfect country-rock balance, Tyndall’s momentum continues to build. She has shared stages with Megan Moroney, Maddie & Tae, Ashley McBryde, Ella Langley, Ian Munsick, Tracy Lawrence, and more. She will support Danny Worsnop and Tyler Rich on select dates this spring, in addition to appearances at major global festivals throughout the season. She has also built an impressive songwriting résumé, including “Bar in Baton Rouge,” featured on Lainey Wilson’s GRAMMY-nominated album Whirlwind.

With “Maybe You’re The One,” Tyndall continues to blur the line between country and rock, delivering a powerhouse collaboration that reinforces the raw, high-energy sound she is known for.

Pop Evil Releases Blistering New Single "The Decay"

To mark the one-year anniversary of their acclaimed album What Remains, Pop Evil announce the release of What Remains (Midnight Edition), arriving March 27, 2026.

The band’s new single, “The Decay,” is out today after premiering on SiriusXM Octane yesterday. The track is a riff-forward modern rock track with depth, melody, and staying power.

Regarding the release, Pop Evil shares, “In a world full of pain, lies, distractions, and half-truths, how easy is it to swallow venom dressed up as medicine without recognizing the damage being done? The choice to help or to hurt is ours. This song is raw, uncomfortable, and honest, an invitation to face the darkness, accept responsibility, and choose to make a difference while you still have time.”

To further reflect this mindset, the band made the conscious decision to forgo any use of AI in crafting the official visualizer. Directed by Sam Shapiro and produced by the skilled CGI team at VSRL Company, the visualizer reinforces the song’s core message: what we choose to create and support truly matters. Watch it below.

What Remains (Midnight Edition) expands the album’s powerful legacy with new material, including “The Decay” and a studio-refined reimagining of the iconic ’80s anthem “Don’t You (Forget About Me),” reimagined through Pop Evil’s unmistakable modern-rock lens.

Originally released as Pop Evil’s most uncompromising and emotionally exposed body of work to date, What Remains stands as both a sonic reckoning and a personal confession. Heavier, darker, and more direct than anything the band has released before, the album channels arena-ready modern rock and metal into a deeply introspective narrative, with frontman Leigh Kakaty laying bare the truths, scars, and battles that shaped both his life and the band’s e 

With What Remains (Midnight Edition), Pop Evil completes a full creative arc, stripping away armor, confronting the past, and standing firmly in the present. It is a reckoning with who Leigh Kakaty was, who he is now, and who he’s determined to become. More than an anniversary release, the Midnight Edition solidifies What Remains as the definitive Pop Evil statement, unflinching, unapologetic, and impossible to ignore.

It's Time to Rise as Dogma Returns to the U.S. This Spring

Explosive hard rock band DOGMA return to the States this Spring on the Time to Rise Pt. 1. U.S. Tour 2026 with special guests Frayle.  Kicking off on March 15 in Seattle, WA, and wrapping on April 3 in Philadelphia, this leg of the tour will see the group perform on key dates in New York City, Washington, D.C., San Diego, Dallas, and more.  Full dates are below.  

Frontperson Lilith says, “Last October and November, during our last U.S tour dates, we carried a message that was still taking shape. Some paths were broken before they could be completed, and certain cities were left waiting. That tension did not fade. It stayed with us, sharpened us, and demanded a proper return.”

She continues, “Time to Rise Part I U.S. Tour 2026 emerges from that demand. What comes next carries intention, consequence, and elements that will not announce themselves in advance. There will be moments you are not prepared for, choices you didn’t plan to make, impulses you didn’t expect to feel, and yet, you will feel them. Anaheim and Reno are part of that reckoning. To the sinners who remained present despite uncertainty: this chapter is written with you in mind. What rises now does so with purpose, weight, memory… and temptations that will test how far you’re willing to go.”

Time to Rise Pt. 1 U.S. Tour 2026 dates (with special guests Frayle):

March 15 - Seattle, WA - Substation
March 17 - San Francisco, CA  - The Independent

Misfire Unleash New Video For Track "All Over The Place"

Illinois thrash metal wrecking crew Misfire release a new video for their track “All Over The Place” today. Directed by Alex Zarek, the video captures the unhinged energy and raw aggression that define Misfire’s live presence. Watch it below:

Misfire is set to hit the road across the U.S. this fall, joining legendary thrashers Death Angel, Toxic Holocaust, and Lions at the Gate for a tour that promises nothing but carnage. The run kicks off November 26 in Denver, CO, and smashes through cities nationwide before wrapping December 17 in Los Angeles, CA.

Drummer James Nicodemus fires off, “Let’s go! This is our final run of the year, and it’s a monster. We’re beyond stoked to share the stage with absolute legends — Death Angel, Toxic Holocaust, Lions at the Gate — and we’re coming for blood. See you maniacs in the pit!”

“All Over The Place” comes off Misfire’s latest full-length Product of the Environment, released earlier this year — a record hailed by Ghost Cult Magazine as: “Total thrash, total riffs, total devastation… don’t go crying to mummy when your eyeballs burst and your face falls off. You brought this on yourself.”

Dark Chapel Release New Track & Video "Sign Of Life"

Dark Chapel, the riff-heavy powerhouse led by Black Label Society guitarist Dario Lorina, has released a new single, “Sign of Life.” The track arrives alongside a cinematic black-and-white video, directed by Justin H. Reich, which reimagines a modern-day western posse against a dusty blacktop backdrop.

This Friday, fans can stream or purchase a deluxe vinyl edition of the band's acclaimed album, Spirit in the Glass, originally released in February. The Laguna EcoMix variant special edition adds two brand-new tracks, "Hit of Your Love" and "Echoes of a Stone Heart II, " and comes pressed on striking blue vinyl. The expanded version will also be available digitally on all DSPs and will include "Sign of Life" as a third bonus track.  Click HERE to preorder/stream.

Dark Chapel will also hit the road with Zakk Sabbath on an extensive US tour, beginning on November 1 in Sacramento, CA, and wrapping up on December 16 in San Diego, CA. The band will also open for Corrosion of Conformity on October 17th in Las Vegas.

Dario Lorina began his professional career in 2006, at the age of 16, as the touring guitarist for the late Jani Lane (ex-Warrant). At 19, he joined veteran metal act Lizzy Borden, with whom he toured for four years. He released two instrumental records with Mike Varney on Shrapnel Records in 2013 and 2017 titled DARIO LORINA and DEATH GRIP TRIBULATIONS. On January 1, 2014, he joined Black Label Society and has since been touring worldwide alongside Zakk Wylde, performing on guitar, piano, and backing vocals. Lorina dueled solos with Wylde on Black Label Society's 2022 album DOOM CREW INC., and he joined Zakk Wylde on the January 2022 cover of Guitar World magazine.

Dogma Announce Headlining U.S. Tour

Explosive and rebellious hard rock band DOGMA announce the U.S. headlining Time To Be Free tour. The tour kicks off October 23 in Anaheim, CA, and runs through November 23 in Westland, MI, including select co-headlining dates with A Killer’s Confession (the band led by Waylon Reavis, ex-Mushroomhead). Fans will also have the opportunity to join DOGMA face-to-face through limited Meet & Greet experiences, available now at www.officialdogma.com/meetngreet (please note that concert tickets are not included).

In honor of the season where shadows grow stronger, DOGMA unveils an exclusive Halloween presale at www.officialdogma.com/store. The collection features two limited-edition T-shirt designs, each package including the shirt of your choice, exclusive stickers, and a lanyard.

Lilith says,

“America… your silence has starved too long. Now the veil is torn, and we return not as guests, but as the storm you begged for in whispers. We cross the American land as fire incarnate, carrying the weight of every sin you tried to bury.

This tour is called 'Time To Be Free' not only after our latest single, but also because freedom is the core of Dogma. To be free is to break the chains of obedience, to tear down imposed morality, to rise above the herd that fears the truth. On these nights, we will not perform; we will liberate. Our music and our word are the weapons in this cultural battle against the doctrines that seek to limit us all.

Halloween is revelation. The season when masks burn, when shadows rise, when truth stands exposed. For this rite, we forged two relics, garments for the faithful. They exist only for this season, then they vanish forever.

And to those who dare to stand before me,  the Meet & Greet is not a transaction; it is a covenant. Few will hold it. Even fewer will understand it.

The Time To Be Free is here. Burning, consuming, unstoppable. Confess. Submit. Or be erased. Your call.”

Worshippers can purchase tickets here: https://officialdogma.com/dogmaverse/.

*with A Killer’s Confession

Born from the union of heavy metal and unapologetic sensuality, DOGMA is less a band and more an exorcism. Their performances bleed theatrics and throb with tension — an altar where riffs reign, inhibitions collapse, and every beat is a confession.

In their church, there is no shame — only truth.
No penance — only passion.

No gods — only DOGMA.

DOGMA was never created to entertain; it was forged to awaken.
Their shows are not concerts; they are rites where fire and flesh collide, where sound becomes weapon and word becomes blade. Every stage they set foot on turns into a battlefield against the doctrines that seek to keep the world silent, obedient, and small.

In their temple, there is no forgiveness to beg for, no chains to protect you, no gods to answer to.
There is only the scream of truth, the hunger of passion, and the freedom to choose.

Be free, only if you want to.

Kneel if you must... but it is not to pray.

A Killer's Confession Release New Album, Victim 2

A Killer’s Confession, the alternative metal band fronted and created by Waylon Reavis, releases its fifth studio album, Victim 2.  A new video for the opening track “Hopeless Gray” is also available now.

Additionally, A Killer’s Confession announces a U.S. tour with labelmates Dogma this November.  The tour kicks off on November 11th in Pittsburgh, PA and wraps on November 23rd in Westland, MI. Full dates are below.

On Victim 2, Waylon delves deeper into the concept of the light and dark sides of mankind, and continues the story of a serial killer who wants to bring horrific criminals to justice. But, as he's learning, there are consequences for his misguided deeds, even if he thinks they are the right thing to do.

Waylon says, “Welcome to Victim 2. This is my proudest moment as an artist. It’s very hard to be a fan of your own music, but it is very easy to become a fan of the people you work with to create the music. So much hard work and determination between myself, Dusty Boles and Evan McKeever was put into finishing the second part of the Victimtrilogy. I could honestly say I could not have done it without them. I feel this album pulls at every emotion and takes the listener on a true journey while leaving a void for Victim 3 to finish the story.”

Victim 2 kicks off in bristling fashion with “Hopeless Gray” and “In Case Of Emergency,” but as the story progresses, the collection of songs explores different musical territory. Victim 2 shows how A Killer’s Confession likes to blend genres, notably on the track “Hollow.” While the song may have an aggro guitar sound, there’s a pop hook in the chorus, while EDM and trap sounds lurk just below the surface. Throughout Victim 2, the dark inner voices plaguing the murderous vigilante emerge in pitch-shifted fashion to distinguish them from his “normal” self. The unexpected cover of Nirvana’s “Heart Shaped Box” halfway through the album signals a turning point for the killer as he starts re-evaluating his humanity. The closing track wraps things up in an epic, melodic fashion.

Groundbreaking Genre Smashers Ho99o9 Partner With Last Gang Records

Hip hop/punk/metal duo Ho99o9 has signed a global partnership with MNRK Music Group’s Last Gang Records. The inimitable group, consisting of theOGM and Yeti Bones, will release new music in Spring 2025.

Chris Moncada, MNRK's COO, says, “There is no group on earth like Ho99o9.  Their unique mix of style, melody, chaos, and danger make them a bonafide musical unicorn, and I am beyond excited to welcome them to Last Gang.  We are all humbled for the opportunity to play a part in bringing them to the next level.”

Ho99o9 offers, “We’re incredibly excited to partner Ho99o9 & 999 Deathkult with Last Gang as we embark on this next chapter of our journey and growth. It’s rare and inspiring to have found a partner who not only supports but embraces our art in its many manifestations. Their passion for authentic artistry and forward-thinking vision align perfectly with what we stand for. We can’t wait to share what we’ve been creating with the world.”

Ho99o9 just released a COLORS session a few weeks ago in advance of the release of new music. Watch that HERE.

Ho99o9 is currently working on new music, which will be released this year.

About Ho99o9
Ho99o9 (pronounced Horror) is a sonic wrecking ball—fusing digital hardcore, punk, and trap-infused grime with industrial, metal, and noise. Raw. Unrelenting. Uncompromising.

Breaking out of the New Jersey underground in 2012, Ho99o9 made its mark with a now-legendary guerrilla performance at Brooklyn’s AfroPunk Festival. By 2014, they had relocated to Los Angeles, becoming a disruptive force in the city’s underground scene. The New York Timescalled them “An All-Out Barrage,” while Kerrang! crowned them “one of the most unique and sonically threatening bands in the world today.”

Their global tour history reads like a warpath, sharing stages with icons across every genre—Korn, The Prodigy, Slipknot, Cypress Hill, Rob Zombie, Ministry, Denzel Curry, Ghostface Killah, Lil Uzi Vert, and The Dillinger Escape Plan. Whether tearing through the chaos of Berghain and Boiler Room or storming the Museum of Contemporary Art, from Hellfest’s circle pits to the polished stage of Rolling Loud, Ho99o9 refuses to be boxed in.

Their genre-bending, culture-clashing sound has attracted a who’s who of collaborators—Corey Taylor of Slipknot, The Prodigy, JPEGMAFIA, Bun B, Ghostemane, clipping., HEALTH, 3TEETH, Pink Siifu, N8NOFACE, and more. Even Jack Black and Eric Andre have been pulled into the Ho99o9 universe.

With a deep and ever-evolving catalog, Ho99o9 has built a legacy of sonic chaos. Their early EPs—Mutant Freax (2014) and Horrors of 1999 (2015)—laid the groundwork for their explosive blend of punk, rap, and noise. Their debut full-length, United States of Horror (2017), was a dystopian manifesto, merging raw political energy with industrial-laced punk and hip-hop. They followed up with Cyber Cop [Unauthorized MP3.] (2018), a cyberpunk-infused mixtape that pushed their sound into glitchy, distorted new territory.

In 2022, they unleashed SKIN, delivering their most refined yet unrelenting project to date—melding hardcore, metal, and rap with unfiltered aggression. Alongside their albums, Ho99o9 has dropped a string of blistering standalone singles and collaborations, further cementing their place at the intersection of multiple sonic movements.

Ho99o9 isn’t just making music; they’re reshaping the edges of sound and culture.

New Video Alert: Texas Hippie Coalition - "Bones Jones"

Texas rockers TEXAS HIPPIE COALITION release the hilariously entertaining animated video for their recently released track, "Bones Jones."  The video was directed by musician Edsel Dope and co-directed by David Perada, and animated by Makinita Silva.  The video tells the crazy story of the character Bones Jones, with the heavy riffs on the tracks setting the manic mood. 
 
“In our hometown, there was a guy named ‘Bones’," says Ritch. "He was about six-foot-seven-inches tall like Lurch from The Addams Family. I’d get weed from him, but he sold everything you could think of. Just weed for me though,” he chuckles.

Texas Hippie Coalition released their new album, Gunsmoke, via MNRK Heavy earlier this month.  On Gunsmoke, Big Dad Ritch and his crew wholeheartedly embrace their country and Southern rock stylings as well as a lifelong passion for westerns. 

With drinks poured, fists raised, and smiles wide, TEXAS HIPPIE COALITION (THC) always know how to have a good time. A collective of tried-and-true rabble-rousers and dyed-in-the-wool storytellers, the Texas quintet—Big Dad Ritch [vocals], Cord Pool [guitar], Nevada Romo [guitar], Rado Romo [bass], and Joey Mandigo [drums]—spike ass-whopping hard rock with a kick of country swagger and a whole lot of Texas grit and gusto.

Texas Hippie Coalition Release New Single, "Bones Jones"

Texas rockers TEXAS HIPPIE COALITION are back with a heavy new track, "Bones Jones."  Wild riffs toss and turn beneath the song, and frontman Big Dad Ritch relays the tale of a “local entrepreneur” and acquaintance from his youth.
 
“In our hometown, there was a guy named ‘Bones’," says Ritch. "He was about six-foot-seven-inches tall like Lurch from The Addams Family. I’d get weed from him, but he sold everything you could think of. Just weed for me though,” he chuckles.

Texas Hippie Coalition will release their new album, Gunsmoke, via MNRK Heavy on October 4, 2024.  This time, Big Dad Ritch and his crew wholeheartedly embrace their country and Southern rock stylings as well as a lifelong passion for westerns. 

With drinks poured, fists raised, and smiles wide, TEXAS HIPPIE COALITION (THC) always know how to have a good time. A collective of tried-and-true rabble-rousers and dyed-in-the-wool storytellers, the Texas quintet—Big Dad Ritch [vocals], Cord Pool [guitar], Nevada Romo [guitar], Rado Romo [bass], and Joey Mandigo [drums]—spike ass-whopping hard rock with a kick of country swagger and a whole lot of Texas grit and gusto.
 
Gathering tens of millions of streams, logging thousands of miles on the road, and energizing countless fans, they deliver ten anthems tailormade to simmer and scorch on Gunsmoke [MNRK Heavy]. “In terms of the lyrics, the vibe, and where THC come from, we definitely went home on this album,” says Ritch. “It represents the wild west Texas-Oklahoma area. You’ve got a little red dirt country spilling over into the storytelling and metal. It’s a return to the dirt where we came from.”
