HOLLYWOOD UNDEAD To Co-Headline Taste Of Chaos 2026; Drop New Single "Feels Like Home"

 Hollywood Undead return today with brand new single “Feels Like Home,” out now via Sumerian Records. The track finds the multi-platinum rap-rock powerhouse turning pain into belonging, delivering a bruised, melodic anthem for anyone who has grown too familiar with the weight they have been carrying. Stream “Feels Like Home” now HERE and watch the accompanying lyric video Below.

The release arrives alongside the announcement that Hollywood Undead will co-headline the return of the Taste of Chaos tour this fall with In This Moment and special guests I See Stars, Vana, and Melrose Avenue. Ticketing info and full routing below. 

Feels Like Home” delivers the unique brand of emotional gravity that could only come from Hollywood Undead. The track captures the strange comfort of survival when darkness becomes routine, turning isolation into something communal, cathartic, and unmistakably Undead. Speaking on the release, Hollywood Undead share:

““Feels Like Home” is about getting used to the things that are slowly breaking you. It’s a song for the broken, a reminder that they’re not alone and that with us, they’re right at home.”

Feels Like Home” follows the band’s recent run of single releases since signing with Sumerian Records, including “Hollywood Forever,” “SAVIOR,” “1x1,” and “All My Friends” feat. Jeris Johnson. Together, the tracks have marked a renewed chapter for Hollywood Undead, one that has reintroduced their iconic masks, sharpened the emotional and sonic extremes of their creative identity, and carried the band into one of the most successful stretches of their career.

Hollywood Forever,” the band’s October 2024 Sumerian Records debut, set the tone for this era, cracking 20.3 million cross-platform streams and peaking at #18 at Active Rock radio. “SAVIOR” followed in June 2025, pulling the band in a darker, more emotionally exposed direction, before “1x1” arrived in March 2026 with a sample of Slayer’s legendary “Raining Blood” riff and the sound of a band still dominating a genre, almost two decades into their career. Most recently, “All My Friends” feat. Jeris Johnson pushed Hollywood Undead into a darker, more theatrical lane.

Hollywood Undead continue a major year of live activity across North America, the UK, and Europe. Following their appearance at Welcome To Rockville earlier this month, the band heads overseas for a full summer run that includes Rock Im Park, Rock Am Ring, Download, Nova Rock, Graspop Metal Meeting, Jera On Air, Vainstream, and select headline dates across Germany, Poland, Switzerland, and beyond. They will return to North America later this summer for Inkcarceration Festival, Rock Fest, Les Grandes Fêtes TELUS, Rock La Cauze, Rocklahoma, and the newly announced return of the Taste of Chaos Tour that they will co-headline with In This Moment. 



The Taste Of Chaos 2026 tour will begin on September 22nd in Charlotte, NC and will hit a further 21 cities across the US before culminating in Anaheim, CA on October 26th. Artist pre-sales and VIP packages begin at 10am local on Monday, June 1st, with venue pre-sales beginning at 10am local on Tuesday, June 2nd, and general on sale beginning at 10am local on Wednesday, June 3rd.

XCOMM Drop "PIRATES" ft. GHOSTEMANE Ahead of Debut Album Release This Evening

Venice Beach hardcore punk unit XCOMM have released their new single and official music video “PIRATES” ft. GHOSTEMANE today, one final grenade before the arrival of their debut album, Time To Burn, which hits streaming platforms tonight at 9pm PT / 12am ET via Blowed Out Records. Fans can watch the official music video for "PIRATES” ft. GHOSTEMANE which stars XCOMM, Ghostemane and Fletcher Dragge of Pennywise Below and stream the track HERE. Time To Burn will be available on streaming platforms this evening at 9pm PT/12am ET HERE

Produced by Ross Robinson, the architect behind era-defining records from Korn, Slipknot, Glassjaw, At The Drive-In, The Cure and more, Time To Burn perfectly crystalizes the essence of XCOMM - young, loud, funny, furious and swinging for the fences. With a level of craft rarely so expertly honed this early in a band’s career, XCOMM have delivered a once-in-a-generation debut that bottles the raw charge of a new wave powered by defiance, authenticity and unbridled talent.

“PIRATES" ft. GHOSTEMANE brings XCOMM’s feral hardcore velocity into direct contact with GHOSTEMANE’s ominously powerful presence. The accompanying video, directed by Darren Craig, also features GHOSTEMANE and Fletcher Dragge of Pennywise, throwing the band’s chaos into a visual world of police chases and ruined suburban picnics. 

Frontman Michael Gatto shares:

“Im so excited for the world to finally hear this record! Every little bit of writing to preproduction to actually being in the studio recording with Ross was amazing. We’ve got a lot of shows and new music to come. This is just the beginning!

Shooting the Pirates music video was great, Darren Craig killed it and Ross chewed up a pickle and spit it all over my shoes for the video - homemade relish. The video captures the intensity that the song was written about. And having Ghostemane feature on the track was mind-blowing.”

Drummer, Revel Ian shares

“Working on this record with Ross Robinson was the most cathartic experience I’ve ever had. There were no limits to what we could be or do. Playing our instruments was like breathing; you didn’t have to think it was just there; it was like an extension of our being. This record is what I’ve always wanted to do my entire life.”

For a band still at the beginning of their story, XCOMM have already ascended with the kind of velocity most new acts spend years trying to manufacture. Their breakout run has included early singles Fake ID,” “Hot Pursuit / One And Nothing and Borrowed Happiness, with Fake ID alone surpassing 2.5 million views across platforms and helping fuel the band’s rapid climb to nearly 90,000 Instagram followers.

That momentum has carried from screens into real rooms. XCOMM have already supported Foo Fighters at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, played The Punk Rock Museum’s 3rd Anniversary Parking Lot Show in Las Vegas, appeared at California Chaos Festival with Militarie Gun, and are set for major upcoming performances at Bumbershoot Festival, supporting Dethklok at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles on May 22 and Observatory North Park in San Diego on May 28, plus appearances at Warped Tour in Washington, D.C. and Long Beach.

Their widening orbit is matched by a startling list of high-profile early supporters, including Mike Patton, Shavo Odadjian of System of a Down, Brann Dailor of Mastodon, Phil Anselmo, Leland Sklar, Dave Lombardo, Roy Mayorga, Jerry Cantrell, Jack Black, Dave Grohl, Keanu Reeves, Toby Morse, Kevin Lyman, Ghostemane, Skrillex, Duff McKagan, Fred Durst, Ben Shepherd, Elle King, Fletcher Dragge of Pennywise, Jakob Nowell, Tony Hawk, The Blood Brothers, Guy Picciotto, Ross Robinson and Sid Wilson.

Robinson first encountered the band in a small club, where their impact was immediate.

“I first saw them at a small club and caught myself laughing out loud as they blasted through their set. For me, that’s an instant “yes”. That youth needed to be captured - raw and fast. Luckily they’re way more cool and talented than I could’ve hoped! “The future is absolutely unlimited for these kids. I can see them inspiring their generation to play music with an unfiltered fire - 100% real instruments with authentic expression of feeling- embracing the imperfection of being a human. An Anti-AI movement.“

This sense of unfiltered youth runs through every corner of Time To Burn. Across eleven tracks, XCOMM turn frustration, boredom, impulse, anger and absurdity into short, sharp shocks of hardcore clarity, simultaneously honoring the hardcore punk lineage that came before them, whilst also adding fresh and invigorating elements pulled from inspirations like David Lynch movies. Songs like their breakout single, Fake ID channel the real-life irritation of being turned away from shows for being under 21 into a snotty anthem of refusal, while Hot Pursuit / One And Nothing stretches the band’s range from frantic confrontation into darker, more atmospheric pressure.

For Fletcher Dragge, the band’s appeal is direct, immediate and deeply rooted in what punk is supposed to feel like.

“I was immediately caught by the simple but hooky, straightforward, guitar, riff, and ripping drums holding it down! I was sold immediately. Good old school punk rock the way it’s supposed to be written and delivered! Not only are these guys delivering exactly what I love to hear. They’re fucking young as shit.!! Super stoked to see the next generation of punk rock coming to life, the future looks bright and I’m 100% in.

 These kids are earning everything they have achieved, 100 percent on their own. Trust me when I say these kids were born to be punkers.”

XCOMM are Michael Gatto on vocals/guitar, Revel Ian on drums, Adan Escoto on bass and Hunter Grogan on DJ/sampler. Together, they make punk rock that feels visceral before it feels fashionable. No borrowed attitude. Just the sharp, unruly sound of a young band kicking open the door while everyone else is still deciding whether they’re allowed in the room.

ICE NINE KILLS PRESENTS “Hell or High Slaughter (Grave Diggler: Pt. 2)”

Their sons may have eclipsed them in the 21st Century, but for a sleazy moment, Grave Diggler left its stain on hard partying rock n’ roll with decadence, desecrations, and panty raids. The group once stood shoulder to shoulder with their eyeliner-and-excess peers in Poison, Mötley Crüe, and W.A.S.P., before bad business and even worse drugs dampened the fire in their loins. By the early ’90s, like many glam bands, Grave Diggler faded from the spotlight.

But history has a strange way of digglering up the past.

When the directing duo behind Scream (2022) and Scream VI, began work on the sequel to their 2019 black comedy horror hit Ready or Not, they desperately wanted to include one of Grave Diggler’s forgotten classic anthems. But even after Radio Silence Productions deduced the connection with Spencer Charnas, securing the rights was no mean feat. 

 

The ensuing legal battle between fathers and sons resulted in Ice Nine Kills re-recording “Hell or High Slaughter (Grave Diggler: Pt. 2)” for Ready or Not 2: Here I Come and the long-banned 1987 music video for the song seeing the light of day. 

“I’ve been estranged from my father for a long time,” Spencer explains. “But this movie, and this song, while bringing a lot of complicated feelings to the surface, also brought us back together.” 

Ice Nine Kills Presents Hell or High Slaughter (Grave Diggler: Pt 2)” .

Watch and listen Below

Broken Lizard’s Paul Soter (Super Troopers), a lifelong Diggler obsessive, teamed up with director Myles Erfurth (Pandemic Sex Party) and Spencer to detail the band’s tale in a forthcoming documentary. 

Laid to Rest: The Grave Diggler Story features all-new interviews with Ready or Not 2: Here I Come’s Samara Weaving (The Babysitter), Kathryn Newton (Freaky), Elijah Wood (The Lord of the Rings), and directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett; Stephen Pearcy (Ratt); Matt Pinfield (MTV); Michael Starr (Steel Panther); Jose Mangin (SiriusXM); James A. Janisse and Chelsea Rebecca (Dead Meat); Andy Gould (former Rob Zombie and Guns N’ Roses manager); and both Sonny and Spencer Charnas. 

 

In recent years, Ice Nine Kills toured the world with Metallica;A Grave Mistake” went gold; “A Work of Art” was in Terrifier 3, the highest-grossing unrated film ever; and “Twisting the Knife” ft. Mckenna Grace, from Scream 7 (which topped the box office upon release and set a franchise best record for Scream) shot to No. 1 on multiple Billboard charts. 

But even as Ice Nine Kills Presents “Hell or High Slaughter (Grave Diggler: Pt. 2)” blazes into Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (playing both in an early scene and again over the closing credits), Sonny Charnas remains characteristically unimpressed. “You call my son shrieking into a microphone like a meshuggah mental patient ‘singing’? That’s not heavy metal. I’m heavy metal."

Without A Face Announce Papercut Recordings Signing With New Double Single “Needful Things” & "Resurfacing (feat. Jacob Mathes of Orphan)"

Toronto musician and producer Kevin Rolly today introduces the next chapter of his unbridled deathcore powerhouse Without A Face with the release of “Needful Things,” a new double single out now alongside the official announcement of the project’s signing to Papercut Recordings. Listen to the double single HERE and find the YouTube visualizer BELOW.

The double single release features tracks "Needful Things" and "Resurfacing" (featuing Jacob Mathes of Orphan). Written and performed by Rolly, Without A Face channels unbridled aggression, pressure, frustration and catharsis into something visceral. The goal is simple, the music should provoke a reaction. Whether that response is discomfort, rage or recognition, indifference has no place in the equation.

The project first began gaining attention with the release of the EP Rat Poison, a short, apoplectic and explosive introduction that quickly found an audience within the modern deathcore community. The release earned strong support from platforms including Slam Worldwide and The Brutality Podcast, whose listeners helped amplify the project and ultimately recognized Rat Poison in the outlet’s year-end awards with a nomination for 'New Deathcore Band of the Year'.

That early momentum helped push Without A Face past 930,000 Spotify streams, 125,000 Apple Music streams and more than 340,000 YouTube views, establishing the project as one of the most promising new names emerging from the underground extreme music space.

Needful Things” now serves as the first release of a new era for Without A Face and the first under the Papercut banner.

Without A Face emerged after years of Rolly working professionally in music through production, engineering and underground rap. Although the work built experience and connections, he eventually felt pulled back toward the kind of heavy music that first shaped him. Records that felt volatile, visceral and impossible to ignore. Without A Face became the vehicle for returning to that space with intent.

The aggression that defines the music is grounded in real stakes. A neck injury in recent years, combined with ongoing hearing issues, left Rolly needing an outlet for his rage and frustration. Those searing emotions sit at the core of Without A Face, fueling the project’s unflinching intensity.

With “Needful Things” now released and the partnership with Papercut Recordings in place, Without A Face enters its next phase with momentum already building and more music expected to follow.

ABOUT WITHOUT A FACE

Without A Face is the solo project of Toronto musician and producer Kevin Rolly, created as an outlet for heavy music that carries real emotional weight. After years working professionally in music through production, engineering and underground rap, he returned to the extreme music that first shaped him, creating a project built on catharsis, urgency and impact.

Written and performed by Rolly, Without A Face turns lived experience, frustration and creative pressure into music designed to provoke a real emotional response.

Since launching the project, Without A Face has amassed over 1 million cross platform streams, and more than 340,000 views on YouTube, with early support from platforms including Slam Worldwide and The Brutality Podcast helping introduce the project to a rapidly growing heavy music audience.

Without A Face announced their signing to Papercut Recordings in March of 2026 with the release of double single "Needful Things" and the threat of more new music on the horizon.
