AFTER THE BURIAL Strip Everything Down on Crushing New Single; Their First In Over Two Years

Minneapolis progressive metal powerhouse After The Burial have returned with their first new single in over two years, "Hum From The Hollow". The punishing new track finds the band excavating dark emotional territory and serves as a brutal reminder of why After The Burial remain an essential voice in modern heavy music. The release is accompanied by an official visualizer and arrives ahead of their upcoming N. American run with We Came As Romans on their "Bad Luck" headline tour. Watch the visualizer below and stream the song HERE.

"Hum From The Hollow" showcases the band's signature blend of mathematically precise 8-string guitar work and crushing rhythmic foundations. Lyrically, it navigates themes of internal decay and psychological torment. Sonically, the single balances the band's insane technical prowess with a visceral, almost suffocating sense of fury that perfectly complements the track's exploration of existential dread. Speaking on the new track, founding guitarist Trent Hafdahl explains

"This song is one of many from the new album that have the same theme: pissed off. Sometimes you have to strip it all down and give the fans something to let their anger out to, so that's what we did here."

With Anthony Notarmaso's devastating vocal performance perfectly mirroring the song's exploration of psychological torment, Trent Hafdahl's innovative, jagged guitar work anchoring their sound and the unflinching rhythm section of Adrian Oropeza(bass) and Dan Carle (drums) providing a brutally heavy, unshakeable foundation, "Hum From The Hollow" confirms that After The Burial continue to be a band that understands the therapeutic power of pure, unrelenting heaviness who are unafraid to confront the uncomfortable realities of human experience through their brutal sonic lens.

The new single arrives as After The Burial prepare to join We Came As Romans on the highly anticipated N. American leg of their "Bad Luck" World Tour. Tickets are available now HERE. Full routing below.

About After The Burial

Minneapolis progressive metal heavyweights, After The Burial have spent two decades forging the blueprint for modern heavy music. Since forming in 2004, the quartet—Anthony Notarmaso (vocals), Trent Hafdahl (lead guitar), Adrian Oropeza(bass), and Dan Carle (drums)—have emerged as architects of the djent movement while consistently pushing the boundaries of what heavy music can be. Their signature blend of mathematically precise 8-string guitar work, crushing grooves, and Notarmaso's devastating vocal range has influenced an entire generation of metalcore and progressive metal acts.

With six full-length albums under their belt, including career-defining releases like Rareform (2009), Dig Deep (2016), and Evergreen (2019), After The Burial have proven their staying power through both triumph and tragedy. Their 2023 return with the emotionally charged double single "Embrace the Infinity" marked their first new music in four years, showcasing a band that refuses to compromise their artistic vision.

Currently signed to Sumerian Records, After The Burial have shared stages with everyone from Killswitch Engage and Parkway Drive to The Black Dahlia Murder and Spiritbox. Now, with "Hum The Hollow" setting the tone for both their upcoming US tour with We Came As Romans and the dawning of a new chapter, After The Burial continue to deliver the crushing live performances and innovative songwriting that have made them essential figures in the modern metal landscape.

US Melodic Rockers DOUBLE VISION Release Self-Titled Album of All Original Material — Out Now via Frontiers Music Srl

Today, US melodic rockers DOUBLE VISION take a bold step forward with the release of their new self-titled album of all original material, out now via Frontiers Music Srl. To celebrate, DOUBLE VISION has released the focus track "Prison Of Illusion," which comes alongside a visualizer, available below.

About the new single, lead singer Chandler Mogel comments:

“This is the opening song on the album, and one of the first songs we wrote for it (along with Aleena Gibson who co-wrote half of the record with us!). A big energetic, ballsy track, with a modern edge, huge chorus - and Tony (our sax player) really shines here! We hope you dig it.”

Watch the Visualizer for “Prison Of Illusion"

Known for delivering pitch-perfect recreations of Foreigner’s timeless hits, DOUBLE VISIONnow solidifies their transition into original music with a track that captures the soaring spirit and emotional depth of classic '80s rock while injecting a fresh, modern edge.

About the new album, DOUBLE VISION comments:

"We wanted to make a record that would be totally our own, but still contain a hat tip (or more) to Foreigner. We didn't want something derivative, but at the same time, something that would appeal to fans of the band. We wanted our own identity and stamp. However, we do feel that a good way to describe the album is that if you took all the different eras of Foreigner and rolled them into one, along with some other sporadic influences, it would sound something like DOUBLE VISION."

Check out this EPK about DOUBLE VISION

and their new album of all original material HERE

Born as a Foreigner tribute band in the United States, DOUBLE VISION honed their craft performing to lively and sold-out crowds up and down the east coast and across the country, soon becoming a real live attraction.

With a lineup boasting some of New York City’s top professional rock musicians and well-known faces of the scene, including dynamic frontman and singer Chandler Mogel (Outloud, Jeff Waters' Amerikan Kaos, Punky Meadows, etc.), super drummer Scott Duboys (ex-Warrior Soul), bass player Scott Metaxas (ex-Prophet) as well as guitar virtuosos Chris Schwartz and Paul Baccash, and keyboard maestro Alex Lubin, DOUBLE VISION recently considered working on their own music, still owing a debt and strong influence to the Foreignersound.

DOUBLE VISION are:

Chandler Mogel - Vocals

Scott Duboys - Drums

Scott Metaxas - Bass

Chris Schwartz - Guitar

Paul Baccash - Guitar

Alex Lubin - Keyboards

Swedish Supergroup CROWNE Shares New Single “Timing Is Right” + Video

Swedish supergroup CROWNE is excited to share “Timing Is Right," the second single taken from their upcoming studio album 'Wonderland,' set for release on August 22, 2025, via Frontiers Music Srl.

About the new single, Jona Tee stated:

"'Timing Is Right' is about keeping moving forward and rolling with the punches life throws at you."

Vocalist Alexander Strandell commented on the new record by saying:

“It feels incredible to share this third chapter with all of you. Working alongside the amazing team at Frontiers and my brothers Jona, Kicken, John, and Love has been an absolute honour. If you’re a fan of Art Nation, The Poodles, H.E.A.T., Dynazty, or Europe - this one’s for you."

Watch the Music Video for "Timing Is Right" Below

Swedish-based supergroup CROWNE are back with their highly anticipated third studio album, ‘Wonderland.’ Continuing their musical evolution, the band builds on their signature blend of melodic rock infused with powerful, metal-tinged soundscapes.

 

‘Wonderland’ delivers an unforgettable listening experience filled with epic atmospheres, anthemic choruses, and technical brilliance that showcase the band’s top-tier musicianship.

 

At the helm is Alexander Strandell, renowned for his soaring vocals with Art Nation, Lionville, and Nitrate. His impassioned delivery adds intensity and depth throughout the album. Guitarist Love Magnusson (Dynazty) provides electrifying riffs and solos, while Jona Tee (H.E.A.T) crafts lush keyboard textures that elevate the album’s cinematic feel. Legendary bassist John Leven (Europe) offers a thunderous low end, and drummer Christian Lundqvist (ex-The Poodles) drives each track with precision and force.

 

One of the standout moments on the record is “Warlords Of The North,” a powerful anthem featuring a songwriting contribution from Biff Byford, the iconic frontman of Saxon. This collaboration adds majesty and weight to an already monumental track.

 

With ‘Wonderland,’ CROWNE continues to push the boundaries of melodic heavy rock, delivering a collection of songs that are as emotionally compelling as they are technically impressive. It’s an essential release for fans of melodic metal and arena-ready anthems.

Wucan Share "Holz auf Holz," An East German x Krautrock Blend Backed By Potent Social Commentary

WUCAN recently announced their new album Axioms, releasing on August 29 via Long Branch Records. The new longplayer showcases the band's  artistic ingenuity while continuing the transformation first hinted at on the previous album Heretic Tongues and ultimately pushing that shift even further.

Today, the band releases "Holz auf Holz," the third single from Axioms

"I wrote 'Holz auf Holz' on a cold March evening in 2024, during one of my little candle rituals at home," shares singer Francis Tobolsky. "Suddenly, my incense caught fire without even touching the flame — and right in that moment, the melody came to me out of nowhere. It was immediately clear that this had to become a song. We call it 'Holz' for short, and it came together quite quickly, since the guys immediately understood what kind of track it was meant to be. To me, this song strongly reflects our East German rock and krautrock influences. And in true Wucan fashion, this German-language song serves as a commentary on the current political and social situation in Germany."

Stream the single and pre-order the new album here.

As is well known, true art is characterized above all by its constant renewal — a combination of the tried and tested with the innovative.

Like nearly all influential acts in music history who have followed this golden rule, Wucan demonstrate their capacity for artistic evolution with Axioms. On Axioms, the four-piece heavy rock outfit led by frontwoman Francis Tobolsky blends the distinctive elements of their previous studio records — Sow The Wind (2015), Reap The Storm (2017), and Heretic Tongues (2022) — with fresh ideas, resulting in a broader stylistic range and a more clearly defined conceptual approach. In other words: While the band continues to reference hard rock, krautrock, East German rock, and metal, the eight new tracks are also infused with touches of progressive rock, isolated electronic elements, and a playful jazz attitude.

Or Tobolsky aptly puts it, "The foundation of our music is international '70s hard rock enriched by contemporary influences — this time with even more bombast, brutality, and complexity."

PRE-ORDER "AXIOMS" HERE

Pagan Folk Band FAUN Shares New Single "Lady Isobel" + Visualizer

The Pagan Folk band FAUN are excited to release their new single, "Lady Isobel,"taken from their upcoming album, 'Hex,' due out on September 5th. The new single comes alongside a visualizer, available below.

“Lady Isobel” is a deeply personal ballad from vocalist Oliver Satyr. Accompanied by lute (Liuto Forte) and vocals, Satyr uses poetic imagery to tell the story of an enchanting woman seemingly trapped in the tower of her own loneliness. Enriched with flutes and synthesizers, the song once again showcases FAUN’s ability to craft a unique musical world, one that transcends genre boundaries with weightless beauty.

Oliver Satyr comments on the single:

"'Lady Isobel' has its source in one of my poems, which I wrote about a dear friend of mine. The lute accompaniment was inspired by the guitar playing of, for example, Nick Drake and Bert Jansch. Together with great vocals, flute playing, synthesizers, and rhythms of my band colleagues, 'Lady Isobel' has become a wonderfully floating ballad that I am very proud of.“

Watch the Visualizer for "Lady Isobel"

After being signed to Universal Music from 2012 to 2019, where they achieved gold and platinum success, FAUN released their first album on their own label, Pagan Folk Records, in April 2022. Titled 'PAGAN,' the album was met with enthusiastic praise from both press and fans, debuting at number three on the German album charts through a partnership with distributor Believe/Soulfood. Looking ahead, the band has announced plans to return to their musical roots with mystical, archaic folk and enchanted ballads on their forthcoming album, 'Hex,' set for release on September 5, 2025.

FAUN’s twelfth studio album 'HEX' explores themes of female magic, pagan myths, and ancient rituals across a variety of cultures. The title draws from the German word "Hexe" (witch) and the Old High German “Hagazussa,” meaning “one who walks between worlds.” The album focuses on pre-Christian legends from the Celtic, Anglo-Saxon, Germanic, Norse, and Turkish traditions, featuring stories such as Merlin and Nimue, Viking sacrificial rites (“Blot”), and ancient spells like “Ylfa Spere.”

Blending medieval instruments (hurdy-gurdy, bagpipes, lute, harp) with modern beats, synthesizers, and diverse global influences, 'HEX' showcases FAUN’s signature fusion of ancient and contemporary music. Collaborations include Turkish singer Fatma Turgut, Swedish musicians Daniel Pettersson and Daniel Fredriksson, and a darkly atmospheric feature with Chelsea Wolfe.

Pre-Order 'HEX' HERE

FAUN previously announced their World HEX Tour 2025, a journey that will take them across the globe, including stops in the USA, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Europe, and the UK. The band will also appear at some of the most prestigious festivals of 2025.

SOL INVICTO Release 21 Minute Concept Single "Initium" ft Zach Hill

Sol Invicto have released "Initium ft. Zach Hill" - a 21-minute single that marks the starting point of a project that was never built to follow rules. Originally recorded in 2011 and shared only with the band’s private fan club community, this is the first time the track will be available publicly, in full, without edits or post-production polish. Listen HERE and watch the visualizer below.

The track was produced, composed, and mixed by Richie Londres, who built Sol Invicto to operate outside the machinery of conventional release cycles or studio expectations. His approach was, and still is. deliberately raw. Built from dense industrial textures, tribal percussion, and rhythmic structures borrowed from electronic music, "Initium" exists to communicate something that couldn’t be said another way.

 

Backing Londres are core members Stephen Carpenter (Deftones) on guitar and Eric Bobo (Cypress Hill) on percussion, with co-production and editing by AJ Cookson. The track was mastered by legendary UK drum & bass producer, Technical Itch.

 

Initium also features a rare, extended guest performance from Zach Hill, captured in a single early session. Known for his work with Hella, Death Grips, and Team Sleep, Hill brought a level of speed and volatility that reshaped the track’s energy from the ground up. His performance doesn’t settle. It pulls the piece forward without warning, fracturing the rhythm and rebuilding it in real time. Across 21 minutes, there’s no repetition—just movement.

 

The release is dedicated to Jack, a young boy whose story stayed with Londres long after the track was finished. Jack lived with high-sensory autism and physical disabilities. Music, sound, and even light were too much for him to process. His mother wrote to Londres years ago to share what happened when "Initium" was accidentally played during one of Jack’s dental appointments. He didn’t shut down. He didn’t cry. He tapped along and he smiled. It was the first time in his life he had done so. Jack connected deeply with Londres’ work and only his work. Nothing else broke through. Not even Deftones. Jack has since passed away. He was buried with a copy of Sol Invicto’s music.

“Jack’s mother’s testimony meant more to me than any Grammy or award ever could. In a cold and heartless industry that exploits and controls creativity, her message gave me a reason to carry on. As a non-conformist who has always rejected mainstream pressures, I realized I wasn’t making music for myself but for a higher calling—to create art that connects, heals, and transforms lives. This release of Initium is dedicated to Jack’s memory and his family, honoring the miraculous connection we shared and the purpose they inspired in my work.” 



"Initium" is for the outliers. The purists. The ones who hear music in shapes and shadows. It’s for Jack.

Knosis Unleash"Tanebi" Ahead of Debut Album "Genknosis" Out 8/1

Japanese metal juggernaut KNOSIS, the visionary project led by acclaimed multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Ryo Kinoshita, return with a blistering new single "TANEBI."

 It's the latest offering from their forthcoming debut full-length album, GENKNOSIS, arriving August 1 via SharpTone Records.

Following the release of the pulverizing singles "FUHAI" (featuring Yukina of Hanabie), "SHINMON," and the emotionally raw "DOKUNUMA," "TANEBI" (translated as "Seed Fire") continues to build the firestorm around GENKNOSIS. Combining razor-sharp riffs, thunderous rhythms, and Kinoshita's signature blend of guttural intensity and haunting melody, the track captures KNOSIS at their most urgent and dynamic.

With each new release, KNOSIS are solidifying their place as one of the most compelling and forward-thinking voices in modern heavy music. GENKNOSIS promises a genre-defying exploration of spiritual tension, emotional collapse, and the will to rise.

Annie Bosko Unleashes Rousing Anthem "Country Girls! (Who Runs the World)"

Rising singer/songwriter and powerhouse performer Annie Bosko releases her rousing anthem “Country Girls! (Who Runs the World),” available now via Stone Country Records. Celebrating the grit and grace of women who do it all, the new track blends honky-tonk swagger with girl-power pride. Listen below.

“It’s no secret that being a woman in country music means working twice as hard with half the time,” shares Bosko. “There’s constant pressure – around age, appearance and how you present yourself. Guys can show up in a ball cap and jeans, but it doesn’t work that way for us. Female artists have always made up a smaller slice of the country music marketplace. But when they break through, they break through big.
 
“Growing up, Shania Twain lit my world on fire. She made me feel powerful – like I could be bold, feminine, sexy, smart, fiery and fun all at once,” she adds. “That’s what I hope this song does: sparks that fire and makes women feel fearless and ready to take on the world.”
 
“Country Girls! (Who Runs the World)” arrives with an original line dance, brought to life earlier this month in a surprise flash mob at CMA Fest, where Bosko joined forces with a group of line dancers from Nashville Dance Fest at the Ariat storefront in downtown Nashville. Watch the flash mob HERE and watch a tutorial for the original line dance HERE.
 
Written by Bosko alongside David “Messy” Mescon and Bridgette Tatum, who also co-produced the track, the new release opens with blazing harmonica followed by a catchy call-and-response chorus, as the song nods to the everyday hustle of country women:

Today’s release follows “God Winks,” a tribute to faith and divine timing during moments of uncertainty. The California native brought the song to RFD-TV’s “On the Record” and Fox 11’s “Good Day LA” in Los Angeles, as she continues to build momentum towards her debut LP later this year.
 
Bosko is set to perform at Country Summer Music Festival in Santa Rosa, California this Sunday, June 29 and the North Dakota State Fair on July 20 before heading to Headwaters Country Jam on July 25.

Danish Musical Virtuoso NICKLAS SONNE Releases New Album ‘Electric Dreams’ — Out Now via Frontiers Music Srl

Today, Danish musical virtuoso NICKLAS SONNE is excited to announce the release of his new studio album 'Electric Dreams,' out now via Frontiers Music Srl. In addition, SONNEhas also released the focus track, "Baron Of Mischief," alongside a visualizer available below.

Talking about the focus track, NICKLAS SONNE commented:

“The track captures the torment of a mind unravelling - a relentless inner struggle where fear takes form and refuses to let go.”

Describing the album, SONNE added:

“This record is a deeply personal journey back to where it all began for me - to the raw energy and spirit of my earliest musical inspirations. It blends the soul of old school hard rock with the punch and clarity of a modern production, creating a soundscape that feels both nostalgic and new."

Watch the Visualizer for “Baron Of Mischief"

NICKLAS SONNE is a Danish musician, vocalist, guitarist, and producer known for his powerful presence in progressive and heavy metal. He began his musical journey as a drummer before moving on to guitar and ultimately becoming a singer-songwriter in a variety of metal and hard rock projects—starting with Defecto, one of Denmark’s leading metal bands, formed in 2010.

In addition to Defecto, NICKLAS is part of Aries Descendant alongside Jonah Weingarten(Pyramaze, Catalyst Crime). The dynamic duo released their debut album via Frontiers Music Srl on October 18th, 2024. It’s a groundbreaking project that seamlessly fuses the evocative allure of film music with the raw power of heavy metal, creating an auditory experience that is nothing short of extraordinary.

A multi-instrumentalist from an early age, NICKLAS honed his skills by playing along to Metallica and Dream Theater, later diving into songwriting and production. His talent quickly gained industry attention, leading to collaborations with renowned producers Jan Langhoff(Aqua) and Flemming Rasmussen (Metallica). This pivotal period helped shape his signature sound—progressive metal infused with orchestral and choral elements.

Other bands SONNE has been involved with include Evil Masquerade, Theory, Hank Shermann, One Machine, Waving Memories, Section A, Metallica Jam, Wasted, and Omvendt Korstog. His long career has included international tours in countries such as Japan and support slots for metal heavyweights like Metallica and Rammstein.

With a relentless work ethic and a passion for musical innovation, NICKLAS SONNE continues to push the boundaries of modern metal, cementing his reputation as one of the most dynamic artists in the genre today. His solo album is a collection of songs that showcases the immense talent of this artist—who also handled production duties himself.

Excide Share "Your Flowers" Video

Carolina post-hardcore quintet EXCIDE, who've been tipped by Stereogum, Brooklyn Vegan, and Revolver, are back with the visualizer for their brand new single "YOUR FLOWERS." It's a hyperkinetic anthem with plenty of push and pull guitar energy, a monster breakdown, and singalong choruses.

Watch and listen below

"This song is all about feeling deceived, manipulated, and taken advantage of," the band says. "We put so much of ourselves into what we create, and only ever want it to have a fair shot out in your world. This single is a first installment from something huge that we've been putting together for a long time. It survived many obstacles to see the light of day today. We can't wait to share more with you all soon."

Don't worry — more information will be revealed in due course.

During 2020, Excide initially introduced a boundary-breaking signature style gestated across projects such as Two of a Kind and Actualize / Radiation Reel. Two years later, momentum picked up on the heels of their independent full-length debut, Deliberate Revolver, which incited the applause of Brooklyn VeganRevolver, and more. They caught the attention of Sharptone Records and inked a deal with the label. In 2024, their next era ramped up in earnest with the two-pack Humdinger, including "Dis(re)member" and "All Down (But 9)." Right away, Stereogum raved, "Both of its tracks go hard," and NO ECHO marveled at how "the band's dynamic blend of '90s-flavored hardcore and propulsive post-hardcore rhythms has shined brightly on each of their releases."

Ultimately, Excide make an authentically original statement by simply being who they are.

"When you take a risk, it either pays off or it doesn't," the band says. "No matter what, it's definitely worthwhile though. There are so many deep cut gems out there because of those artists who were willing to risk it all. I hope you walk away from the album inspired to take a chance and do more. You never know what might happen."

blessthe fall Announce New Album "Gallows" + Share "mallxcore"

Arizona quartet blessthefall — Beau Bokan [vocals], Eric Lambert [guitar], Jared Warth [bass], and Elliott Gruenberg [guitar] — are thrilled to announce GALLOWS, their first album in 7 years. It arrives September 5 via Rise Records. Pre-order it here.

Accompanying this news is the release of the new single "mallxcore." 

Watch the visualizer below.

 

"You ever hear a song from a band and go, 'Holy fucking shit, they nailed it?,'" Bokan muses. "That’s what 'mallxcore' will make you feel. This song was so fun to write as we went in with no intentions other than writing the most blessthefall song possible. The song title is a poke at the r/Metalcore reddit haters."

The official video for the track will arrive on Thursday, June 19.

Bokan offered an advance tease about the video, saying, "We knew the music video for 'mallxcore' needed to be as fun as the song was. We hand-picked Tanner Gordon to direct because of his amazing work with bands like Spiritbox. In the video, we all have normal, mundane jobs then I'm recruited by an over-dramatic party host who needs a band to perform at her shindig...STAT. As a bonus, there are some really cool easter eggs throughout the video that we dropped in there for the hardcore fans!"


Stay tuned, because it's coming!
 

Bokan shares this additional insight about the album, saying, "Gallows is a culmination of everything we love about writing music. We took our time and only wrote when we felt inspired. Every song you hear on this album was written from a place of excitement and freedom and you can hear that shine on every track. From the visceral screams over some of the most disgustingly heavy parts we've ever written to the massive sing-along choruses, there's something for everyone. If you're a die hard BTF fan since Day One or a first-time listener, Gallows will end up on your Top 3 metalcore albums for 2025."

It's a bold statement but it's also true!

The album also features guest appearances from Story Of The Year, Alpha Wolf, and Caskets.

“It is the result of two years of work, and we are very excited to show the world how much MALVADA has grown. We believe it is the best work of our lives, and everyone will like it, as it shows our real essence. You will have a real experience.”

 

About "Yesterday (My End, My Beginning)", they added:

“It’s a song that brings the certainty of better days after the storm has passed. It talks about boundaries, self-love, and self-respect”.

 

The rising star of the Brazilian rock scene has a name: MALVADA, and they are ready to take over the world!

Watch the Visualizer for “Yesterday (My End, My Beginning)” Below:

MALVADA was initially formed in March 2020, at the start of the pandemic. With a rock n' roll style full of personality, the band quickly attracted attention as one of the most promising acts in the Brazilian rock scene.

 

In January 2021, MALVADA released their first single entitled "Mais Um Gole," which gained great popularity. Shortly afterwards, in May of the same year, it was time to release the second single "Cada Escolha uma Renúncia," which preceded the launch of the band's debut album, 'A Noite Vai Ferver.'

In 2022 and 2023, MALVADA solidified its presence on the national rock panorama, performing more than a hundred shows in several cities in Brazil. The band had the privilege of participating in huge festivals, such as Rock in Rio, Best of Blues and Rock, Angra Fest, and Chama Rock, sharing the stage with renowned national and international rock names, like Pitty, Ira!, Angra, Viper, Edu Falaschi, Matanza, Golpe de Estado, Extreme and Tom Morello.

In November 2023, MALVADA, composed of Indira Castillo, Bruna Tsuruda, Rafaela Reoli, and Juliana Salgado surprised with a big announcement: the band has become the newest signee of the prestigious Italian label Frontiers Records, which has renowned bands in its catalog such as Mr. Big, Asia, Whitesnake, Jeff Scott Soto, among others, promising to take them to a new level, with opportunities to expand their reach and conquer the global market.

The new album, produced by the Brazilian Grammy-awarded producer Giu Daga, promises a powerful and exciting musical experience and will be the band's first work featuring tracks in English/Portuguese, aiming to conquer a global audience.

MALVADA's vibrant rock passion will take no prisoners!

dead7 Drop "PLEASE" Video" (Feat. Marcus Vik)

dead7 will drop their new album LOVE WHAT YOU CAN WHILE YOU GOT SOMETHING LEFT TO LOVE on July 11 via SharpTone. Pre-order it here

On the album, the St. Louis, MO quintet — Jason Kozik [vocals], Dexter Greer[guitar], Tim Quinn [guitar], Stephen Salyer [bass], and Zach Guinn [drums] — temper guitar-driven grooves with electronics, atmospheric keys, and evocative vocals. Simultaneously, death and romance become interchangeable, rotating around an axis of relatable emotional turbulence.


dead7 have dropped the video for "PLEASE." The track features a guest appearance from Invent Animate's Marcus Vik.

Watch it Below:

"We were making a joke about being kind of horny, and we tried to encapsulate it," Kozik says about the song's interesting origin story. "It's about the highs of relationships. If you say, 'Please,' you could tell me to do anything. It doesn't matter, just ask nicely. It has our ridiculously low guitar tones that we love, but it also feels like a pop song. We really wanted to have fun with this one."

Fun, indeed!

Armed with this boundary-breaking style, dead7 initially rose up out of St. Louis during 2022. Following "unwanted" and "bite it," the group collaborated with Nathan Johnson of Fox Lake on "heaven only knows." Meanwhile, "tape mouth" surged with over 433K Spotify streams, paving the way for the new pain collection EP and all time does is pass and all i do is remember EP. Along the way, they packed headline gigs and graced the bills of festivals such as POINTFEST with Incubus, Bad Omens, Coheed and Cambria, The Pretty Reckless, and more. In late 2024, they caught the attention of Sharptone Records and inked a deal with the label. Hitting the studio, the band reteamed with frequent collaborators and producers Caleb Freihaut and Ben McGuiness to record what would become LOVE WHAT YOU CAN WHILE YOU GOT SOMETHING LEFT TO LOVE. This time around, the guys nodded to inspirations such as Loathe, Bring Me The Horizon, and Three Days Grace.

Gridiron Release "Poetry From Pain"

Gridiron will bring Poetry From Pain to fans and venues all summer long. All upcoming confirmed dates, including Summer Slaughter, are below.

Gridiron, which originally formed as a pandemic project and have since grown into a full-fledged entity, features members of Never Ending Game, Simulakra, and Scarab, and connects the Philadelphia, Delaware, and Michigan areas.

Pushing every boundary to a breaking point, Gridiron will go to any extreme and then some. They follow quite possibly the most unpredictable playbook in the game. The band might flood the zone with a corpsepaint-smearing death metal barrage only to double back around for a victory lap narrated by blinged-out and braggadocios bars. Their hybridization of metal, hardcore, and hip-hop wouldn’t be out of place at either OZZfest 1997 or Rolling Loud 2027.

It's why the quintet have bulldozed their own path as a phenomenon with millions of streams and acclaim from Stereogum, Brooklyn Vegan, NO ECHO, and more.

Gridiron were born out of a series of COVID-era marathon Call of Duty sessions, which led to writing and recording together. Their musical pedigree spoke for itself with Will also in Never Ending Game, Xavier in Simulakra, and Tyler and Lennon in Scarab. Given their individual experiences, the guys instantly locked into a creative groove. Following the Loyalty At All Costs EP [2020] and Worldwide Brotherhood EP [2021], they dropped their first full-length, No Good At Goodbyes [2022]. Along the way, they also shared stages with everyone from Missing Link to Trapped Under Ice and have plenty of upcoming touring planned for 2025.

And now, Poetry From Pain is here and it slays.

“Poetry from pain is about team work, brotherhood, never settling for less than your best, always raising the bar, and finding ways to express what you’re feeling inside.”

GRIDIRON — Matthew Karll, vocals; Will Kaelin, guitar and vocals; Xavier Wilson, guitar; Lennon Livesay, bass; and Tyler Mullen, drums — are proud to release their new album Poetry From Pain today, May 30, via Blue Grape Music. Get it here

Stereogum fave for their "incendiary mosh riffs, the band has shared a dope, football-themed visualizer for the title track. Get off the bench and watch and listen here.

Groove? Check. Bounce? Check. Swagger? Check. Mosh? Check. Gridiron tick off ALL the boxes.

"Poetry From Pain is about teamwork, brotherhood, never settling for less than your best, always raising the bar, and finding ways to express what you're feeling inside," states Karll.

ABOVE SNAKES Returns With Explosive NEW Single “FORSAKEN”

“FORSAKEN” sits in the tension between holding on and letting go. It’s about loving something that’s slipping through your fingers knowing it might break you, but not ready to walk away. Dark, raw, and restless, "FORSAKEN" captures the weight of memory, the fear of change, and the fight to not lose yourself in the process.

The wait is over. Hard rock renegades

ABOVE SNAKES are back with a vengeance, unleashing their most anthemic and emotionally charged single to date: “FORSAKEN.”

Done playing by the rules and surrounded by snakes and fakes, Boston’s ABOVE SNAKES launched in the heart of the 2020 pandemic with one mission: torch the playbook and carve their own path. Since then, they’ve toured with Drowning Pool, From Ashes to New, Adelitas Way and Saliva, while earning repeated Premieres on SiriusXM Octane and adds on Music Choice. With over 7 million global streams, all produced and mixed by Kile Odell (Papa Roach, Citizen Soldier) ABOVE SNAKES has also landed editorial support from Spotify, Apple Music, and Pandora.

UK Metal Trio URNE Release New Single “Harken The Waves” — A Nine Minute-Plus Epic Ft. Troy Sanders of Mastodon

Beloved by tastemakers and the underground alike, the London-based metal trio URNE has today released a nine-minute-plus undulating epic, “Harken The Waves,” featuring guest vocals from Mastodon’s Troy Sanders. On the track, Sanders and URNE frontman Joe Nally’s voices blend into a powerful duet that crests and crashes like the song itself. The new single comes alongside a music video, available to view below.

Frontman Joe Nally comments on the new single:

“We feel this is one of the best songs we’ve ever written. On top of that, we were lucky enough to have Grammy-winning metal icon Troy Sanders, from the legendary Mastodon, lend his vocal talents. We’ve grown up listening to Troy and watching Troy live, so having someone like him not only appear, but take on such a significant role in the song, elevating it to another level, means a lot.”

Watch the Music Video for "Harken The Waves" Below:

“Harken The Waves” follows URNE’s recently released double A-side: "Throes Of Grief"plus a spectacular cover of Black Sabbath’s “I.”

KATAKLYSM | RELEASE VIDEO VISUALIZER FOR NEW SINGLE 'THE RABBIT HOLE'

For almost three decades, the US/French Canadian-based melodic death metal syndicate KATAKLYSM, has delivered unapologetic waves of powerful sound across the entire globe. Today, the band offer fans a new track entitled, 'The Rabbit Hole'.

With a brutal honesty and relentless force, it rips through the illusion of control and dares listeners to wake up, fight back, and resist. A soundtrack for the disillusioned—unapologetic and unrelenting. The song features Clemens Wijers (CARACH ANGREN) who curated the tracks ambient sound effects and synth section.

KATAKLYSM'S Maurizio Iacono states,  "'The Rabbit hole' is the bands first stand alone single since the bands classic 'Iron will' track. As the world spins out of control and people search for purpose and truth, we felt questioning these things is something important to do, theres a lot of noise and lots of distortion these days, but always  trust your gut and what is right vs what is forced fed, so why not put these thoughts to music, so while we wait for the next record, we decided to drop this heavy hitter, spread it an enjoy!"

The single was recorded earlier this year at JFD Studios in Dallas, TX and Studio City, CA as well as The Cabinin Orlando, FL and Silver Black Studio, Laval, QC, Canada. 'The Rabbit Hole' was produced, mixed, and mastered by the band's very own J-F Dagenais.

WE CAME AS ROMANS Drop New Single "no rest for the dreamer"

Fresh off their explosive performance at Welcome To Rockville, metalcore vanguards We Came As Romans have released their brand new single, no rest for the dreamer,” today. Debuted live in front of a sea of delighted fans this past weekend, the track continues the band’s powerful new era—first introduced by their previously released anthem Bad Luck—and further sets the stage for the band's upcoming Bad Luck World Tour. Stream "No rest for the dreamer" HERE and watch the accompanying visualizer below.

The track continues the defiant, emotionally charged new chapter the band kicked off with “Bad Luck”— their first release of 2025— and raises the stakes yet again. Rooted in perseverance, ambition, and the refusal to be broken, no rest for the dreamer” is a raw and unrelenting anthem for anyone still clawing toward something better.

 

“This song is for the ones still fighting for their future,” says frontman Dave Stephens. “The ones who can’t sleep because they’re not done yet. It’s about carrying the weight of your past, knowing you’re still not where you want to be—but refusing to stop anyway.”

Built on a pummeling riff and one of the band’s most hauntingly melodic choruses to date, the song’s lyrics confront internal trauma, self-doubt, and the compulsion to run straight into the storm: “So why are you standing in the rain? What do you want to wash away?”

 

The release follows the huge momentum of Bad Luck”, which launched the band's new 2025 chapter with a thunderous statement of resilience. With a stacked schedule of touring, festival appearances, and more new music ahead, “no rest for the dreamer” is both a battle cry and a brutal reckoning.

 

We Came As Romans hit the road this summer for the Bad Luck 2025 World Tour, beginning with a huge North American run on July 22 in Toronto and wrapping August 23 in Detroit, followed by an extensive European/UK leg in the fall. North American support includes After The Burial, Currents, and Johnny Booth, with Brand of Sacrifice joining for Europe. Tickets for the tour can be purchased HERE.

 

The band will also appear at major festivals Warped Tour, Inkcarceration and When We Were Young, reinforcing their role as one of heavy music’s most vital live acts.

ABOUT WE CAME AS ROMANS

We Came As Romans continue to progress and evolve at lightspeed, maintaining a place at the forefront of heavy music and culture. Never content to follow, they seamlessly alchemize crushing groove-driven catharsis, spacey electronics, and arena-size singalongs into a sound that refuses to sit still—effortlessly moving between metal, alternative, hardcore, and rock.

The Michigan-born five-piece—Dave StephensJoshua MooreLou CottonAndy Glass, and David Puckett—first broke through with Tracing Back Roots (2013), which cracked the Billboard 200 Top 10 and hit #1 on both the Independent Albums and Top Hard Rock Albums charts. Their self-titled 2015 album followed, debuting at #11 on the Billboard 200, cementing their status as modern metalcore royalty.

Following the tragic loss of original vocalist Kyle Pavone in 2018, the band has continued to honor his legacy with their 2022 album, Darkbloom, their highest-praised record to date. Kerrang! awarded it 4 out of 5 stars, calling it “a carrier for a knot of emotion, and a tribute to their friend.” It featured career-defining tracks like “Black Hole” (ft. Caleb Shomo), now over 102 million Spotify streams, and “Daggers” (ft. Zero 9:36), which surpassed 32 million streams. Media outlets including Loudwire and Consequence praised the album for its emotional range, sonic heft, and unapologetic vulnerability.

Now, with “Bad Luck” and “no rest for the dreamer” the band charges into a new era—scarred, sharpened, and more fearless than ever.
