BLOODYWOOD ANNOUNCE 2026 "SYSTEM OF A BROWN" TOUR

FEATURING SPECIAL GUESTS THE PRETTY WILD, LADRONES, + ANKOR

Tickets and VIP Available Starting Tuesday, December 9 With Artist Presales

General Onsale Begins Friday, December 12 at 10am on LiveNation.com 

Fresh off a sold-out Summer 2025 support slot for BABYMETAL and recently serving as direct support for Hailstorm in Europe, Indian folk metal band BLOODYWOOD today announce their 2026 "System Of A Brown Tour," featuring support from diverse worldwide acts. Joining Bloodywood on this run are genre-bending, boundary-breaking U.S. metalcore band The Pretty Wild;Mexican "Flow Pesado" rockers Ladrones; and Catalonian melodic metal band Ankor. 

It's going to be an evening of eclectic metal that will surely thrill hard rock fans. 

"Our spring headline run of the U.S. will be an epic full circle moment," states Raoul Kerr, the band's rapper vocalist. "It started this summer supporting BABYMETAL and it's going to culminate in a run where we bring our full length set to the U.S. for the first time. It's the best songs from our new album and the best of our first album — it's the kind of set that pushes the limit of any venue to the max and we can't wait to bring it to all our supporters there. We're also playing Sick New World for the first time and returning to Welcome to Rockville as well as Sonic Temple, so this tour is stacked and we're beyond ready to go."  

Bloodywood, who've been tipped by PASTE, Revolver, Consequence, Guitar World, Metal Injection, and more, have quickly cemented their reputation as a "can't miss" live act, which can be seen in these performance videos from their sold-out appearances in London earlier this year. 

The 25-city tour, produced by Live Nation, kicks off on Friday, April 10 at Wooly's in Des Moines making stops at the premiere festivals, such as WELCOME TO ROCKVILLE, SONIC TEMPLE, and the return of SICK NEW WORLD, in addition to crossing North America before wrapping up in Detroit at Saint Andrew's Hall on Friday, May 15.

Varials Announce "Where The Light Leaves" Out 2/27 + Band Shares Video for Title Track

Philadelphia's VARIALS — Skyler Conder, vocals; Shane Lyons, guitar; Mike Foley, bass; Sean Rauchut, drums — re-entered the chat and in a metallically massive way in September. The band shared the video "I'll Find the Dark," its first new track since 2022. It's an impenetrable and intimidating wall of sound. Watch the video below. It was also the first track to feature formidable new frontman Conder.

Varials up the ante yet again by announcing their new album WHERE THE LIGHT LEAVES. It arrives February 27 via Fearless Records. Pre-order it here.

The band has also shared the video for the title track, which is another hulking slab of metal. 

Watch it below:

"'Where The Light Leaves' is the key introduction to the overall idea of the album itself," says Conder. "Through many emotions in my life, I found myself always feeling trapped within my mind, in a sense of purgatory and as if my mental state was a nightmare. The video and song are meant to elaborate, lyrically and visually, what it feels like being stuck there and unable to leave — eventually just accepting it and learning to live with it."

There's a distinct irony to "Where The Light Leaves." It sounds like a live demolition. The earth-shaking percussion and blast beats are like slabs of concrete, tumbling from the sky, while Conder spits violent verses that could've erupted from the center of the earth. It's plate-shifting collision of riffs and roars. Ultimately, what comes down goes right back up — the track is just another instance of Varials erecting a wall of metallic chaos with each new song.

Varials deliver hardcore ferocity, monstrous breakdowns, and nu-metal groove with an adventurous atmosphere and unapologetic purpose. Born in Philadelphia and the surrounding areas, Varials embody East Coast attitude and determination, pouring every ounce of struggle into their songs. Their fourth album, Where the Light Leaves, arrives with explosive energy and focus. Varials first established their place in the modern heavy landscape with Pain Again (2017) and In Darkness (2019). Tracks like "Romance," "Empire of Dirt," and "Anything to Numb" became anthems, blending metalcore strength with raw honesty that deeply resonated with audiences. Scars for You to Remember (2022) expanded that vision, further cementing their reputation as one of the most emotionally intense acts of the modern era. Produced by longtime collaborator Josh Schroeder (Lorna Shore, Dayseeker, The Plot In You), Where the Light Leaves signifies a new chapter. An often chaotic and experimental process—creating dozens of demos—resulted in 13 songs that capture Varials at their most powerful and creatively ambitious. The performances are deliberately raw, embracing imperfections to forge an immediate, human connection. Guttural heaviness paired with new melodic textures delivers a sound that is both punishing and expansive. As demonstrated on tours with Knocked Loose, Wage War, and Kublai Khan TX, among others, Varials are a fierce and formidable live band, and that energy is reflected in Where The Light Leaves.

Minute After Midnight Shares "GHOST (Reimagined) Video

FEARLESS RECORDS recently welcomed MINUTE AFTER MIDNIGHT to the label's global roster. Minute After Midnight is the brainchild of Derrick Ryan, having sprouted from the fertile musical grounds of Nashville in 2016.

Today, MAM shares the video for the re-imagined version of his previously released hit single "GHOST (Reimagined)," which was accrued 8 million streams thus far.

Watch it Below.

"The song that once shattered your heart now rises anew —reimagined, reborn. An orchestral piano version of 'GHOST', where strings and a timeless cello bleed through every note, each one a cry from the afterlife. A haunting new vocal drifts between redemption and sorrow, echoing into infinity — the sound of what was lost becoming the soundtrack of what's next," the artist says.

Midnight After Midnight cannot and will not be tethered to any genre parameters. The reimagined version of "GHOST" is a piano-driven, modern power ballad with lilting melody and emo-style vocals that could've been culled from 2005. It's a renewed take on his most popular song to date. Minute After Midnight's heart is on full display, thanks to the impassioned vocal delivery. It's a spare and economical track that leans into Ryan's voice and the pretty piano, but it's hardly simple. The additional heft lies within the subject matter — when all you have left is the ghost of a past love.

Last month, Minute After Midnight shared the video for the new single "MASOCHIST." Watch it here. With "Masochist," feeling bad feels oh so good!

Volumes Share Video for "Bad Habit" Ahead of "Mirror Touch" Release

15 years into their career, Volumes have weathered ups, downs, time, trends, and everything else life could throw at them only to come out stronger on the other side. Against all odds, a devout audience has ridden shotgun and grown with them every step of the way, waiting for this moment.

The Los Angeles quartet — Michael Barr [vocals], Raad Soudani [bass], Myke Terry [vocals], and Nick Ursich [drums] —recently announced their fifth album, titled Mirror Touch. It will be released digitally on December 12 via longtime label Fearless Records. The physical album will arrive on February 27 of next year. Pre-order it here. 

Volumes have shared the video for "Bad Habit."

Watch it Below.

Here, Volumes ake a stunning sonic left turn. While the track has the guitar girth and grit that is familiar to loyal Volumes fans, the band leans into its melodic sensibilities and synths, trading its usual heavy dose of screams for fully clean verses and choruses. The result is a gorgeous and unexpected alt metal song that will turn heads  — both new and old.

"'Bad Habit' is a song about identifying that habits that are deemed bad for you or unhealthy are sometimes the only thing getting you through life," shares Barr. "Is there a balance that can be achieved? Typically, no."

Through a decade-and-a-half, Volumes' quiet impact has been felt, with over 167 million streams in the U.S. alone, widespread acclaim, and sold-out shows. They've carved out their own corner of heavy music with an inimitable hybrid of head-crushing polyrhythmic prog-spiked metal, hardcore spirit, and unbridled attitude. They have assuredly leveled up over the course of albums such as Via [2011], No Sleep [2014], Different Animals [2017], and Happier? [2021]. KERRANG! hailed the latter as "an album that gives a nod to the band's past while still bringing in new ideas." Meanwhile, the group shared stages on tour with everyone from Ice Nine Kills and Born of Osiris to Dance Gavin Dance and Counterparts. The Los Angeles group continues to fortify a full-on sensory assault with thick riffing, chilling soundscapes, and the venomous bite of its incomparable two-headed vocal hydra.

Fearless Welcomes Minute After Midnight to the Roster + Artist Shares "Masochist" Video

FEARLESS RECORDS is thrilled to welcome MINUTE AFTER MIDNIGHT to the label's global roster. 

Minute After Midnight is the brainchild of Derrick Ryan, having sprouted from the fertile musical grounds of Nashville in 2016.

To celebrate the new partnership, the artist has shared the video for new single "MASOCHIST." Watch it below.

With "Masochist," feeling bad feels oh so good!

The track is deceptively upbeat, with mid-tempo, alt rock x pop melodies and a playful, perfectly measured sprinkling of synths, electronics, and riffs. You will find yourself bobbing your head and singing along to the song's existential chorus, which asks, "Why am I like this?"  It's a banger through and through, seamlessly weaving a tapestry of pop, rock, and emo. 

"It's a song that makes you smile while simultaneously breaks your heart, it sounds uplifting, but at its core is a brutally honest, sad confession," Ryan explains. "Writing 'Masochist' felt like ripping open my chest and letting the world see the beauty in my self-destruction — an anthem laced with nostalgia that exposes a vulnerable glimpse into my inner world."

Minute After Midnight's 2023-released single "Ghost" catapulted to 7.6 million Spotify streams and landed on the SiriusXM Octane airwaves. The song and Minute After Midnight's plentiful, hook-laden alt rock melodies, which play with textures, captured the attention of powerhouse label Fearless Records, who promptly signed the artist to a global record deal. Minute After Midnight cross-pollinates both an intimate, created-in-my-bedroom vibe with room-filling production sound. It's this exercise in contrasts that defines "Masochist." Ultimately, it's a pop rock banger that indicates where Minute After Midnight is headed — musically and professionally. 

Volumes Announce New Album "Mirror Touch" Out 12/12 + Share "S.O.A.P." Visualizer

15 years into their career, Volumes have weathered ups, downs, time, trends, and everything else life could throw at them only to come out stronger on the other side. Against all odds, a devout audience has ridden shotgun and grown with them every step of the way, waiting for this moment.

The Los Angeles quartet — Michael Barr [vocals], Raad Soudani [bass], Myke Terry [vocals], and Nick Ursich [drums] — are thrilled to announce their fifth album, titled Mirror Touch. It will be released digitally on December 12 via longtime label Fearless Records. The physical album will arrive on February 27 of next year. Pre-order it here. 

Volumes have dropped the visualizer for the new single "S.O.A.P." Watch it

Volumes have never sounded as confident and assured as they do on this riff-roaring new single. Crunchy, industrial-tinged production, screamed vs. melodic vocal interplay, and a thunderous breakdown signal the beginning of the new era of Volumes. If Meshuggah or Fear Factory entered into a cage match with the Terminator: Judgment Day's T-1000 liquid antagonist, it would sound a lot like "S.O.A.P."

"'S.O.A.P.' is about pure and impure indulgence," the band explains. "Good versus evil. Playing with fire or magic — the lines are blurred here. We self-nurture habits that are deemed immoral, although who is the person making that decisions for us?"

Through a decade-and-a-half, Volumes' quiet impact has been felt, with over 167 million streams in the U.S. alone, widespread acclaim, and sold-out shows. They've carved out their own corner of heavy music with an inimitable hybrid of head-crushing polyrhythmic prog-spiked metal, hardcore spirit, and unbridled attitude. They have assuredly leveled up over the course of albums such as Via [2011], No Sleep [2014], Different Animals [2017], and Happier? [2021].

Chase Atlantic (Over 8B Streams!) Release "LOST IN HEAVEN (HIGH AS HELL)" Deluxe Edition W/ 4 New Tracks

Globally acclaimed and genre-bending trio Chase Atlantic — comprised of Mitchel Cave, Clinton Cave, and Christian Anthony — have built their reputation by crafting a seamless fusion of pop, rock, and R&B. They push creative boundaries yet never stray from their core sound and that's precisely why they have connected so deeply with their legion of Gen Alpha (and beyond) fans and have accumulated over 8 billion streams and 1.2 billion YouTube views along the way. The Australian-born, Los Angeles-based trio is immediately identifiable, yet incredibly difficult to put a title or genre on either their sound or the audience that adores them. They fit in just as well playing massive pop festivals as they do touring with rock bands.

Armed with an array of hits across a multitude of genres, Chase Atlantic have picked up one of the widest-ranging fan bases in all of music.

They proudly release LOST IN HEAVEN (HIGH AS HELL), the deluxe version of their fourth album, via Fearless Records. Listen Below

It boasts four additional tracks — including the recently released "FACEDOWN" and "REMIND ME" — and represents a dynamic evolution of LOST IN HEAVEN. It's a creative bridge that accurately depicts the future of Chase Atlantic's music and their desire for perfection. Rather than simply attaching a few additional "throw away" tracks, they invested time and intention into seamlessly crafting each song. Paying close attention to not only their intricate production, they also expand on their alluring and extremely unique vision. With this addition they aim to re-imagine their framework, embrace bold choices, and take creative risks that most artists wouldn't dare to even try.

The deluxe edition includes "WARCRY," which blurs the line between confession and rebellion. Reminiscent of earlier work like "Numb to the Feeling" and "Devilish," Chase Atlantic once again push the boundaries of modern music with their intoxicating blend of alternative R&B, and dark pop atmospherics. It also features "VICTORY LAP." Propelled by their signature fusion of brooding R&B, and hypnotic pop production, the track captures the high-speed rush of ambition colliding with hard-won success. Lyrically defiant yet emotionally charged, the track feels less like a celebration and more like a declaration — a reminder that glory is fleeting, but the chase never stops. Adventuring into unexplored territory sonically, Chase Atlantic masterfully combine three individual songs into one theatrical release to give the listeners a glimpse into future experimentation.

chokecherry Announce Debut Album "Ripe Fruit Rots and Falls" Out 11/14 + Band Shares "Major Threat" Video

chokecherry, comprised of vocalist/guitarist Izzie Clark and vocalist/bassist E. Scarlett Levinson, are thrilled to announce the November 14 release of their debut album Ripe Fruit Rots and Falls. Pre-order it here. 

To celebrate this moment, chokecherry release the video for the angular new single "Major Threat." 

While chokecherry are known for crafting lush soundscapes, "Major Threat," whose title nods to hardcore legends Minor Threat, is inherently punk rock and gritty, giving fans something they've not yet heard from the band. It's jarring — in the best possible way. The accompanying visual, shot on VHS and delivered in just a few days, demonstrates the important DIY spirit at chokecherry's core.
 
Watch the video, co-directed by Clark and Whitney Otte below.

"I grew up on heavy surf punk — hello, Southern California — and this track brings me back to 2016-era mosh pits at the Teragram Ballroom in L.A. or the Velvet Jones in Santa Barbara," Clark explains, tearing back the curtain and inviting the listener to fully immerse themself into the experience of the song. "Vocally, I was very inspired by Brendan Yates (Turnstile) and Zack de La Rocha (Rage Against the Machine). The inspiration for the track came from a (fleeting) feeling of being discarded. The accompanying video is co-directed and pokes fun at the hell that is the 21st century dating scene." 

Levinson weights in, saying, "'Major Threat' is one of the few currently recorded chokecherry tracks that really allows listeners to dip their toes into our live energy. This includes mosh pits, screaming, and running into the crowd mid-song. It's a direct homage to the scenes that shaped us and continue to do so, calling on inspirations like Turnstile and Mannequin Pussy."

She continues, "Of course, the bridge is packed out with classic chokecherry harmonies and layers, and the track concludes with a last-minute twist. The final lyrics are a nod to the toxic cycle of craving something (or someone) that's rejecting you; it hurts like hell and drives you crazy, but in the end, getting left is probably for the best."

Pulling from essences of their childhoods exposed to rock 'n'roll, adolescent years spent exploring '90s post-rock, pop, indie, alt-rock, hardcore, queer musicians, even metal, and their own young adulthood filled with small shows in the Bay Area from a plethora of artists and genres, chokecherry's debut LP, produced by Chris Coady, Christopher Grant, and Zach Tuch, fearlessly pursues creating a snapshot in time, capturing the sonic culture of San Francisco, the political movements overflowing our senses in 2025, the social deterioration of empathy and humanity in the 21st century, and what it means to be human in a time where it feels like there are so few left. "The album isn't about heartbreak over an individual — some of it is — but it's from the state of the world. That's what it is. It's about heartbreak over the loss of childhood and the imagined future that you might have had when you were young, because that doesn't exist. It's actively been taken away from all of us and everything is being stripped before our very eyes, constantly, every single day," says Levinson.

Within 10 tracks, chokecherry piece together the very essence of what it means to be a sentient being in this cruel world, Ripe Fruit Rots and Falls is a dichotomy in its entirety;  introspective and panoramic, tender and intense, personal and social, post-rock and shoegaze, but so is the duality of man. chokecherry encompass all that is severely lacking – empathetic humanity.

chokecherry will embark on their first ever full North American headline tour, with special guests The Sewing Club. The trek kicks off with a West Coast record release show weekend, celebrating Ripe Fruit Rots and Falls with special guests Pure Hex. The California release weekend includes a hometown San Francisco show, in addition to shows in Los Angeles and Santa Ana. 

The tour runs through December 21 in Salt Lake City. All dates are below. Get tickets here.

Varials Return With Video for New Single "I'll Find the Dark" + It Slays

Philadelphia's VARIALS — Skyler Conder, vocals; Shane Lyons, guitar; Mike Foley, bass; Sean Rauchut, drums — have erected a massive, impenetrable, and intimidating wall of sound with "I'll Find the Dark," their first new song since 2022.

Watch the video below.

It's also the first track to feature formidable new frontman Conder, who shares that the song is about "ending it all abruptly."

Squalling feedback, deathcore growls that sound as though they originated in the deepest recesses of hell, and violent, and riffs that sound like detonations are the hallmarks of "I'll Find the Dark." It's heavier than a slab of granite and a welcome return for a revamped and revitalized Varials.

"'I'll Find the Dark' lyrically tries to captivate the overall theme of being consumed by pain throughout existence," says Conder. "The idea was for the instruments to be just as aggressive as the vocals and lyrics of the song itself. The track tries to express the emotional distress of feeling lost within yourself, being terrified of existence and living, as well as trying to overcome some sense of grief and heartache."

Shane Lyon furthers, "The idea was to build a wall of sound that suffocates the listener."

Suffocation has never sounded so good.

This is just the opening salvo from the new and improved VARIALS. More music is on the way. And it's going to be just as vicious.

VARIALS will embark on a tour of Australia with Spite.

ABOUT VARIALS:
Philadelphia's Varials seamlessly alternate between moments of crushing power and melodic poise, unlocking harmony in the middle of opposite poles. So much so that Decibel once raved that "Varials have their own modern spin on hybridizing metal and hardcore into a powerful new amalgam." The band — newly comprised of Skyler Conder (vocals); Shane Lyons (guitar); Mike Foley (bass); and Sean Rauchut (drums) — consistently sharpen their signature style with searing intensity, uncontainable energy, and incredible creativity. Varials began to build their fanbase with Pain Again [2017] and In Darkness [2019]. The latter yielded "Romance," which amassed 21 million streams and counting. Varials next delivered a dose of controlled chaos like with their third full-length, 2022's Scars For You To Remember. Over the course of Varials' career thus far, the band has hit the road with the likes of Wage War, Kublai Khan, and more, holding its own with some of the genre's heaviest hitters and earning its right to be named among the best. Varials' upcoming fourth full-length looks to be the band's most brutal effort yet.

The Plot In You Release New Single "Silence" With Official Music Video via Fearless Records

The Plot In You have today released their new track "Silence" and the official music video (via Fearless Records). When asked about the inspiration behind the track, vocalist Landon Tewers commented:

"'Silence' is a meditation on the feeling of growing older, more confident, and at peace. I wanted to write about my current feeling about existing. Nothing in the song repeats as a metaphor for not treading past waters again and striving take on things that feel uncomfortable."

The quartet is currently on their US headliner with Invent Animate, Northlane and Windwaker as support, and will next hit the road with Bring Me The Horizon across the States alongside Motionless In White and Amira Elfeky (ticket information here).

STARSET ANNOUNCE NEW ALBUM SILOS OUT SEPTEMBER 12 VIA FEARLESS RECORDS

ALBUM FEATURES TWO NEW TRACKS + SIX INTERLUDES

BAND SHARES VIDEO FOR COVER OF "SHATTERED DREAMS" —

Visionary, sci-fi-inspired rock collective STARSET will release their next full-length transmission SILOS on September 12 via Fearless Records.

Pre-save it here.

The album will feature two brand new tracks, six interludes, and several recently released songs. In typical STARSET fashion, fans are invited to immerse themselves in the band's layered world via the songs, interludes, and the storylines.

o coincide with the album news, the band has shared its cover of "SHATTERED DREAMS." Watch the video here. It's STARSET's take on Johnny Hates Jazz's international hit "Shattered Dreams" — with a twist. It's haunting and moody and in true STARSET fashion, the tone of the song can highlight the dystopia of 2025.

"For a long time, I've had it in my head that I could cover 'Shattered Dreams' in a cool way that sounds fresh, heavy, and emotive, while still keeping what made it great," says frontman Dustin Bates. "For that reason, it was on a very short list of covers I'd like to eventually do. I haven't traditionally been very big on covers for this band, though, so I wasn't in a real hurry to do it. However, recently, I've started to become convinced that soon, anyone will be able to cover any song in any style with the use of AI. (It will take a while longer for it to write a great song on its own, but it will likely be able to cover songs well very soon.) So, it started to feel like now-or-never. That also explains why there are two covers on the album."

Lauded by Forbes as having "one of the most firmly established brands of any modern rock band," Columbus, Ohio's STARSET are creating a true multimedia empire with music at its core. Their hits include RIAA Platinum-selling hit "My Demons" (2012) and RIAA Gold-selling single "It Has Begun" (2014), with others soon to follow. With a staggering 5 billion streams and a rapidly growing rabid global fanbase, STARSET are one of rock's upper echelon acts.

Chase Atlantic (Over 8B Streams!) Share New Single "FACEDOWN"

Globally acclaimed and genre-bending trio Chase Atlantic — comprised of Mitchel Cave, Clinton Cave, and Christian Anthony — have built their reputation by crafting an unpredictable fusion of pop, rock, and R&B. They push creative boundaries while always remaining true to their core sound and that's one of the reasons they have connected so deeply with their fans and have accumulated over 8 billion streams along the way.

Today, Chase Atlantic have shared the brand new anthem "FACEDOWN."

Watch the lyric video below.

The track adheres to the sonic signatures that have helped the band to accrue a dedicated legion of diehard Gen Alpha fans. Dark, deeply personal lyrics that aren't afraid of being self-aware are encased in the band's potent dreamy melody and a woozy break beat. It's an atmospheric and thoroughly chill alt pop jam that sounds best with the volume all the way up and the lights all the way down. Just lean back and let the wave of beats crash over you and elevate your mind.

"In a few words, the track is this hyper realistic deep dive — detailing the chaotic aspects of mental health and inner struggles. It delves into chemical imbalance and this fear of quite literally drowning in a bottomless pool of emotions. It's raw, intense, and comes straight from the heart," shares Mitchel Cave.

"FACEDOWN" is the perfect extension of the band's recently released fourth album LOST IN HEAVEN, which is out now via Fearless Records.

ABOUT CHASE ATLANTIC: 
Describing Chase Atlantic's sound as of their fourth full-length, LOST IN HEAVEN, is simultaneously simple and impossible. The Australian-born, Los Angeles-based trio is immediately identifiable, yet incredibly difficult to put a title or genre on either their sound or the audience that adores them. They fit in just as well playing massive pop festivals as they do touring with rock bands. Armed with an array of hits across a multitude of genres, Chase Atlantic has picked up one of the widest-ranging fan bases in all of music, earning them more than 8.1 billion streams and 1.2 billion YouTube views.

Boys Like Girls Announce "THE HOMECOMING (LIVE FROM THE MGM MUSIC HALL AT FENWAY PARK)" + Watch "BLOOD AND SUGAR" VIDEO

In 2023, alt-pop powerhouse BOYS LIKE GIRLS made a long-awaited return with Sunday At Foxwoods, their first album in over a decade. The record is a beautiful meeting of their melody-driven pop anthems delivered with the maturity of a band that had many years of growth in between. A bold reintroduction that resonated with a new generation of listeners while igniting the hearts of longtime fans.
 
After writing and producing for artists like Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, and Jason Derulo, frontman and songwriter Martin Johnson, brought a sharpened pen and a deeper sense of purpose back to the mic. With renewed energy, the whole band returned to a sold-out show on their hometown stage at Boston’s MGM Music Hall at Fenway Park with something to prove.
 
The Homecoming captures that night as unfiltered, electric, and unforgettable.

Today, they announce the September 8 release of THE HOMECOMING (LIVE FROM THE MGM MUSIC HALL AT FENWAY PARK). Pre-save it here.

The band recorded their 100-minute set in Boston on October 26, 2023 for this live album, which captures BLG in their most natural state — on the stage.

BLG have also shared the video for "BLOOD AND SUGAR (LIVE)." Watch it below.

About the live album, Johnson shares:

"Fenway Park. The shrine. The cathedral of Boston. Where curses broke, where beers were spilled, where you can feel the city's heartbeat under green tin and red clay. You don’t just visit Fenway — you belong to it. I was baptized in peanut shells and piss-warm Bud Light. I sat in seats older than my grandfather's bad decisions and prayed to the church of Big Papi. It was ours. And then… they dug under it. Right into the bones of Lansdowne Street — into the bedrock of garage bands, bar fights, and rat nests the size of golden retrievers. They carved out the MGM Music Hall like a secret lair, a rebel bunker under the battlefield.
 
"I came up with a generation raised on Dunkin' Donuts and driven half-mad by traffic on Storrow Drive. We were kids with guitars slung over our backs like bayonets, howling through rusted-out PA systems in the backrooms of American Legions, screaming songs into the linoleum void of church basements while the Sox blew another lead in the 7th. We grew up in the shadow of the Big Dig — a $22 billion pothole we all paid for with our sanity — swallowing granite and history, trying to make room for a future nobody asked for. But under all that concrete? Something was rumbling.

BLG will embark on a slew of upcoming tour dates that run through October. The band has also announced several festival appearances and will be serving as support to The Jonas Brothers through October, as well. So it's a busy few months of touring ahead  Get tickets here.

Wind Walkers Announce New EP 'I Don't Belong Here' Out October 3 via Fearless Records + Drop "Silk & Static" Official Music Video

It's a great day to be a Wind Walkers fan! The band announced their forthcoming EP 'I Don't Belong Here' out on Friday, October 3 via Fearless Records. In celebration of the news, the quintet has dropped their new track "Silk & Static"and the official music video. Amidst glitchy electronics blended with crushing riffs and seamless melodies, the song's central theme is especially relatable to those who have a neurodivergent condition. When asked about the inspiration behind the track, Wind Walkersvocalist Trevor Borg shared:

"Writing "Silk & Static" was like staring into a mirror and unpacking every frustrating thing about myself. It came from a place of not understanding why my mind felt so chaotic all the time and why I kept getting in my own way. After recently being diagnosed with ADHD, the pieces started falling into place, and it shed a different light on the song. It was very eye-opening in the fact that I wasn't alone, and that this kind of internal noise or “static” is something others live with too. At its core, I wrote this song to offer comfort to people who can relate to feeling overwhelmed and misunderstood, while trying to make sense of themselves."

Pre-save 'I Don't Belong Here' at the link here, stream "Silk & Static" here, and watch the official music video below.

Wind Walkers are kicking off their North American run with Our Last Night and Grayscale this evening on The Final Tour, starting in St. Louis, Missouri and wrapping in Nashville, Tennessee, on September 26. Be sure to get your tickets at the link here before they're all gone.

DREGG Sign to Fearless Records + Share Video for "Dress Down"

FEARLESS RECORDS is thrilled to welcome DREGG, a a fiercely individualistic four-piece from Melbourne, Australia known for their high-energy fusion of metal, hardcore, and rap, delivered with theatrical flair and absurdist humor, to the label's worldwide roster.

DREGGs music, visuals, and over-the-top personas serve as a satirical lens on modern culture — part South Park, part Rage Against The Machine, with a splash of Eminem chaos. Blending shock value with deeper commentary, DREGG don't take sides politically but instead critique from the outside, encouraging fans to embrace their inner weirdos and challenge societal norms through unapologetic self-expression.
 
The band shares the video for "DRESS DOWN."

The song appears on the band's album The Art of Everything, which came out last fall.

Watch the video below.

The song is a taste of what's to come. It's the sound of shattering sonic boundaries, pushing past setbacks, and conquering every obstacle encountered. It's loud, aggressive and it's here to remind everyone that DREGG are carving their own path, regardless of who stands in their way.

So, get out of the way or get mowed down.

"We've always believed in the power of personal interpretation," the band states. "We want each listener to find their own meaning in our music. But if we're talking about what drove 'DRESS DOWN,' it was frustration, betrayal, and a relentless desire to reinvent ourselves. We were determined to break new ground sonically, something fresh that speaks to who we are as artists right now."

Regarding the accompanying video, the band offers, "It was directed by Melbourne-based director Joel Wilson and it took our vision to a whole new level. We spent four days filming and we couldn't be happier with the result. It's definitely our most cinematic endeavor to date."

 DREGG are equally excited to partner with Fearless and join the labels formidable roster. "We're super psyched about joining Fearless and giving new life to The Art Of Everything. It's a dream come true to be alongside some of the biggest heavy hitters in the game and we can't wait to keep writing and releasing more music."

Wind Walkers Release New Music Video "Eating My Heart Out" (via Fearless Records),

Genre-blending metalcore outfit Wind Walkers have today released the official music video for their poignant new track "Eating My Heart Out" (via Fearless Records), directed by Alex Kouvatsos at Blackwolf Imaging. Speaking about the inspiration behind the song, vocalist Trevor Borg commented:

"This song captures the guilt, feeling of distance and identity conflict that comes with life as a musician and being on the road. You can feel such a divide in identity, having to be what your career needs and who your family needs at the same time. I’m sure this song will resonate with people dealing with turmoil in a relationship, but I truly wrote this song to be a portrait of guilt in having uncertain dreams, with the intent to resonate with other artists and people who share the same conflicts. I also intended for it to serve as a message to the fans and lovers of music about the sacrifices that go into the art form they hold so dear to their heart."

Prior to today, the quintet announced signing with Fearless Records and dropped "The End Aesthetic" through their new label home which has clocked up 164k views and counting on YouTube and nearly 1.2 million streams on Spotify alone. Watch "Eating My Heart Out"  below, and stream the track here,

After wrapping up their triumphant run with Memphis May Fire, Wind Walkers will next be hitting the road across North America on Our Last Night's Final Tour alongside Grayscale beginning in August. Tickets are on sale at the link here, and be sure to stay tuned for more Wind Walkers news coming soon.

TSS Partner With Labelmates Windwaker for "Would you be my therapy (Redux)?" Video

French metal alchemists TSS (formerly The Sunday Sadness) have steadily built their reputation in the global metal scene, thanks to their innovative blend of emo, metalcore, alternative rock, and synthwave. They've recently added elements of phonk and neo-metal to their sonic blend. The band was founded in 2016 by Kirby, who sought to combine his emo and metalcore roots into a fresh new sound. He quickly solidified the TSS lineup with John on guitar and vocals andHugo on drums.

TSS will release their new album END OF TIME, out June 27 via Fearless. Pre-order it here.

They team up with labelmates Windwaker for "Would you be my therapy? (Redux)" Watch the video below.

TSS are known for seamlessly sewing elements of emo, metalcore, alternative rock, synthwave, and more into their signature style. The single "Would you be my therapy? (Redux)" (Feat. Windwaker) boasts a pulsating groove that runs through the entirety of the song and just won't quit. It's also quite possibly the sexiest metalcore track you've ever heard.

The band gave it a twist because it's such a game changer in their history and because they wanted to partner with a band with whom they align on many levels!

"Would you be my therapy? will always be a very special song to us," TSS states. "It is the one song that defined our new musical direction, which is now a blend of neo-metal, phonk, emo-core, and industrial music. It's also the first song that really got attention not only from the public but also from our label, Fearless Records. It is then an honor for us to give it a second life through this collaboration with Windwaker, which we consider one of the most innovative band in our label's roster right now. "

ABOUT TSS:
TSS's origin story can be traced back to December 2017, with "The Wrong Way," their firstsingle release. In May 2018, they released "Lost In The Crowd," a track that set the stage for their first live performance, which found them opening for Asking Alexandria in Paris. This show established TSS as an up and coming force in the French music scene.

Their 2018 single "Someone," a blend of synthwave and retrowave, was a turning point that showcased John as a second lead vocalist. This shift was followed by their self-titled debut EP in May 2019, led by the single "Damn I Hate It," which fans loved, thanks to its fusion of funk, synthwave, and emo elements. The band's growing popularity was further confirmed with a sold-out release show in Paris.

As the band evolved, they started to introduce French lyrics into their songs, leading to the release of "YAYAYA" in September 2019. Their originality attracted the attention of independent label PlayTwo, resulting in the creation of the album REGRETS in collaboration with Warner Music and TV broadcaster TF1. In September 2021, the band rebranded to TSS, marking the occasion with the release of the single "1996," which garnered significant attention in France.

February 2023 saw TSS embrace a more aggressive style with "Tes Pleurs," a modern metalcore track inspired by Bring Me The Horizon and Poppy. This new direction broadened their audience while maintaining their unique gothic/K-pop aesthetic. The band's experimental spirit led to the August 2023 release of "Fantasize," a viral hit that fused alternative rock, J-rock, phonk, and metal, earning millions of streams on Spotify.

The momentum continued with "Would You Be My Therapy?" in December 2023, a track that topped iTunes rock charts and caught the attention of many labels. In September 2024, having signed a deal with Fearless Records.

TSS's journey, characterized by constant innovation and genre-blending, has positioned them as a rising force in the modern metal scene, with a growing fanbase across diverse musical communities.       

TSS Sharing "Ending Scene" Visualizer —

French metal alchemists TSS (formerly The Sunday Sadness) have steadily built their reputation in the global metal scene, thanks to their innovative blend of emo, metalcore, alternative rock, and synthwave. They've recently added elements of phonk and neo-metal to their sonic blend. The band was founded in 2016 by Kirby, who sought to combine his emo and metalcore roots into a fresh new sound. He quickly solidified the TSS lineup with John on guitar and vocals andHugo on drums.

TSS will release their new album END OF TIME, out June 27 via Fearless. Pre-order it here.

Today, they are sharing the visualizer for new single "Ending Scene." Watch the visualizer below 

TSS love to play with their sound — cross-pollinating metal, pop, emo, synths, and their native tongue into their very own, combustible, culturally impactful, and fingerprint-distinct blend. With the mega-dynamic "Ending Scene," they come in like a lion and go out like a lamb. The song is engineered in reverse — rather than build towards tension and release, it starts off full-throttle with battering ram double-bass percussion, a teeth-baring riff assault, and nightmare-inducing shrieks and growls.

"ENDING SCENE" will leave you struggling to catch you breath until things gradually slow down to a lilting anti-crescendo. The song's softly gorgeous fadeout is fully cathartic and you will emerge from the experience cleansed and clear-headed.

"'Ending Scene' is an attempt to create the most violent emo song possible," says the band. "With raw and violent breakdowns and blast beats forth the verses, and a mix of heavy riffs and angelic clean vocals that suddenly turn into savage screams for the chorus, 'Ending Scene' depicts the point of view of someone that's considering suicide after ending a tragic love story."

Violent emo, indeed!
