Progressive Metallers MAESTRICK Return with New Single "Zion" + Official Video

October 6, 2026

Today, Brazilian progressive metallers MAESTRICK return with their new single and official video “Zion,” out now via Frontiers Music Srl.

The band comments:

“'Zion’ marks the beginning of a new chapter for MAESTRICK. We have a new lineup, renewed energy, and a real sense of excitement about what lies ahead. We’re grateful for everything we’ve created so far, but this song takes us into new territory - and we can’t wait to explore it.”

“‘Zion’ brings MAESTRICK’s symphonic side to the forefront, drawing on the cinematic scale of composers like Hans Zimmer and Gustav Holst. At the same time, we’re exploring modern sounds in both the instrumentation and vocals, with electronic and atmospheric elements inspired by artists such as Muse, VOLA, Spiritbox, and Bad Omens,” they add.

Watch the Official Video for “Zion” Below;

Founded in São José do Rio Preto/SP by three friends, MAESTRICK has been active since 2006, and in their sound bring elements of rock and progressive heavy metal, Brazilian regional music, world music, and classical music.

The band has released two albums in Brazil, Europe, United States and Japan, and are recognized for drinking from different artistic aspects - cinema, plastic arts, visual arts and literature – for their compositions, which results in a unique and, according to specialized critics, innovative style.

Not surprisingly, MAESTRICK captivates movie fans, notably those of Tim Burton, George Méliès, Guillermo del Toro, and Christopher Nolan. In music, it attracts listeners of both modern rock/metal, such as Muse, and also of more niche styles within metal, such as Dream Theater, Haken, Jinjer, Spirit Box, and classics like Queen, Yes, and Gentle Giant.

Their songs address everyday complex themes of human nature. The album ‘Espresso Della Vita: Solare,’ from 2018, was rated by BURRN!, one of the most respected music publications in the world, with a score of 86/100 – quite high for the publication's standard. ‘Solare’'s success led to a tour of Europe with nine shows in Switzerland, Italy, Poland and the Czech Republic.

Their latest album ‘Espresso Della Vita: Lunare,’ was released in 2025, showcasing the ability of the band to push the Progressive metal boundaries.

“Zion” now opens a new chapter for MAESTRICK, with a new album coming in 2027 and the band ready to take their distinctive and adventurous sound to an even wider international audience.

THE L.I.F.E. PROJECT—Feat. Stone Sour’s Josh Rand & Casandra Carson—Unveils Cover of Led Zeppelin’s “Immigrant Song” + Visualizer

September 30, 2026

Today, THE L.I.F.E. PROJECT - the dynamic collaboration between guitarist and songwriter Josh Rand (Stone Sour) and powerhouse vocalist Casandra Carson (Paralandra, Casandra’s Crossing) – are thrilled to reveal their latest reimagining, a hard-hitting take on Led Zeppelin’s iconic “Immigrant Song,” out now via Frontiers Music Srl.

Josh Rand comments:

“Like 'Call Me,' we never planned to release 'Immigrant Song.' In 2019, we moved into a new house, with a new home studio. Really, the music was all put together with me just messing around with the vintage gear I had. Once I started working with Casandra, I asked her if she wanted to take a shot at this for the fun of it.”

Casandra Carson also states:

“Ironically, the first time I remember hearing 'Immigrant Song' was in Shrek the Third, haha!! The second I heard Snow White sing that Viking war cry, my soul and my senses lit up like I’d been struck by lightning. My dad told me it was a song by Led Zeppelin, and I became as obsessed as a kid who just tried chocolate for the first time. I couldn’t get enough. Years later, when I started performing in bands, 'Immigrant Song' remained at the top of my list of songs I wanted to cover. It was only fitting that I would suggest it to Josh, as well, when we first began working together. I guess now I’ll have to watch Shrek the Third again to celebrate our new release.”

Stream/Listen to "Immigrant Song" HERE

Born from a shared musical vision and an undeniable creative chemistry, THE L.I.F.E. PROJECT represents a fresh and compelling artistic union. While Rand had long envisioned launching a female-fronted project, it wasn’t until 2020 - when a mutual connection introduced him to Carson - that the idea truly began to take shape. What started as an exploratory collaboration quickly evolved into something far more meaningful, laying the groundwork for a project driven by purpose and artistic synergy.

Musically, THE L.I.F.E. PROJECT fuses Rand’s signature heavy riffs and affinity for strong melodic hooks with Carson’s commanding and versatile vocal delivery. Drawing inspiration from classic metal, thrash, and progressive influences, the project channels the raw energy and spirit that first inspired Rand to pick up the guitar, while offering Carsonthe opportunity to explore new sonic and emotional territories.

Over time, the band has crafted a distinct sound that balances intensity with accessibility, underpinned by a natural creative partnership. Their material reflects a thoughtful and organic development process, allowing ideas to evolve freely and cohesively.

Lyrically, THE L.I.F.E. PROJECT sets itself apart by venturing beyond traditional rock themes, embracing broader narratives and concepts. Their songs often draw from history, social issues, and real-world tensions, exploring themes such as empowerment, resistance, and societal challenges. This approach adds depth and substance to their music, complementing its powerful sonic foundation.

CHEZ KANE Reveals Brand New Single “Strip Me Down” Out Now via Frontiers Music Srl

September 28, 2026

British rocker CHEZ KANE is thrilled to reveal her brand new single, "Strip Me Down," along with an official video, out now via Frontiers Music Srl. The song is taken from her latest studio album 'Reckless,' which was released in March.

The release also includes “Hot Wired Heart," a previously unreleased B-side, available on all streaming platforms.

CHEZ commented:

“'Strip Me Down' is another little piece of the 'Reckless' story and I definitely wanted to turn up the heat with this one! It’s sexy, playful and a little bit naughty, with a real sense of temptation and attitude. Just when you thought we’d finished with 'Reckless,' we’ve got a brand new music video for 'Strip Me Down' and a bonus track included.”

Watch the Official Video for “Strip Me Down" Below:

CHEZ KANE has firmly established herself as one of the most exciting voices in modern melodic rock, bringing the larger-than-life spirit of the genre’s golden era into the present day with soaring vocals, infectious hooks and unmistakable charisma.

Following the success of her first two albums, CHEZ returned in March with her third studio record, ‘Reckless’ - an explosive collection of arena-ready anthems, slick guitar work and unapologetic ’80s-style swagger. Bigger in sound and richer in emotion, the album further cemented her reputation as a standout artist in the new generation of melodic rock.

Once again written and produced by Danny Rexon, frontman of Swedish hard rockers Crazy Lixx, ‘Reckless’ built on the creative partnership that has helped define CHEZ’s solo career. Together, they have developed a sound that celebrates the glory days of melodic and hard rock while injecting them with fresh energy and modern production.

From glam-infused rockers to emotional slow-burners, CHEZ’s music is driven by huge choruses, memorable melodies and a powerhouse voice made for the biggest stages. Across three albums, her growing confidence and unmistakable personality have shown that she isn’t simply paying tribute to the sound of the ’80s - she’s helping carry it forward.

Now, following ‘Reckless,’ CHEZ KANE opens the next chapter with a brand-new track, offering another dose of the energy, attitude and melodic firepower that have become her trademark, while giving fans their first taste of what comes next.

Bold, infectious and built to be played loud, CHEZ KANE continues to prove that melodic rock is very much alive - and she’s right at the heart of it.

Swedish Hard Rock Heavyweights HARDCORE SUPERSTAR Officially Sign to Frontiers Music Srl Share New Single "Halo"

September 27, 2026

Frontiers Music Srl is proud to announce the signing of Swedish hard rock heavyweights HARDCORE SUPERSTAR, marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter for one of Scandinavia’s most enduring and explosive rock bands.

The partnership kicks off with the release of HARDCORE SUPERSTAR’s brand-new single, “Halo,” just days before the band launches the Scandinavian leg of its “Dirty Halo Tour” on October 2nd.

The band comments:

“We’re really excited to start this new chapter with Frontiers. After all these years, we’re still just as hungry to make great records, play loud, and push HARDCORE SUPERSTAR forward. We feel Frontiers understands where we come from, but more importantly, where we want to go next. There’s a lot of new music coming, and we can’t wait to get it out there.”

Aldo Lonobile, VP of Global A&R, Frontiers Label Group, states:

“Being a fan of the band for many years, I am particularly excited to welcome HARDCORE SUPERSTAR to Frontiers! They have built an incredible legacy, but I truly believe they still have a lot to say and many more chapters to write. We’re excited to be the right partner for their next steps and to support their vision as they enter this new chapter.”

Raw, loud, and unapologetic, “Halo” captures HARDCORE SUPERSTAR at their most direct. Built on heavy riffs, attitude and a chorus made for the live stage, the song revels in the turmoil between chaos and redemption, where bitter truths, wine-soaked spite and fake prayers collide.

The band described the new single by saying:

“'Halo' is an anthem for people faking their prayers in the hope of securing a little grace under their Dirty Halo. It’s about that distorted line that lies somewhere between praying for redemption and embracing the chaos - the sins, mistakes, and bad decisions you can’t take back.”

Watch the Official Music Video for "Halo" Below:

The new single arrives as HARDCORE SUPERSTAR prepares to return to the road for the “Dirty Halo Tour,” a 20-date run through Sweden and Finland beginning October 2nd in Malmö. The tour will continue into Europe and the rest of the world during 2027.

“We are excited to be back on the road for this long-awaited tour. We love the chaos, the crowds, the late nights and the connection with the fans. This tour is going to be something special,” said HARDCORE SUPERSTAR.

Alongside preparations for the tour, the band is currently in the studio working on the follow-up to their acclaimed album ‘Abrakadabra.’ The upcoming release will also be the first to feature new drummer Efraim Larsson (Gathering Of Kings, Masterplan).

PAUL LAINE Releases New Album 'The Long Road Back' — Out Now via Frontiers Music Srl

September 26, 2026

Today, renowned Canadian singer PAUL LAINE proudly releases his new studio album, ‘The Long Road Back,’ out now via Frontiers Music Srl. To celebrate, the new track “Someday,” along with an official video, is available now.

Laine comments:

“With the music video for ‘Someday,’ the producer and I wanted to create something that celebrates the many beautiful forms of love that connect us as human beings. From the unconditional love we share with family and friends, to the bond we have with our animals, and the simple acts of kindness, compassion, and connection we show one another every day, the video is a reminder that love is all around us. In a world that can sometimes feel divided, ‘Someday’ is my small contribution to the idea that love, in all its forms, is what ultimately brings us together.”

Watch the Official Video for "Someday" Below

A masterclass in melodic rock, PAUL LAINE’s new album delivers soaring hooks, heartfelt ballads, and arena-ready anthems that traverse the full spectrum of the genre. From the driving energy of “Love Me Or Leave Me” to the intimate vulnerability of “Someday” (co-written with Andrew Oye), every track is meticulously crafted, showcasing LAINE’s signature vocal power and melodic sensibility. “Don’t Let Me Go Tonite” comes alive with a striking video that complements its infectious energy.

LAINE states:

“Ever since I released my first solo album, I've wondered when I'd finally have the chance to make a follow-up. Life - and music - have a way of taking you places you never expect. Looking back, every chapter of my career has led me down a different road, and each one has shaped me as both a songwriter and a person.”

“I've been incredibly fortunate to make records with Danger Danger, Darkhorse, The Defiants, Shugaazer, and Jetset Junkies. Every one of those experiences taught me something and gave me memories I'll always carry with me. But somewhere in the back of my mind, I always knew the road would eventually lead me home - to where it all started. Just a kid with a guitar, trying to make sense of love, life, loss, hope, and everything in between through songs,” he added.

"‘The Long Road Back’ is exactly that. It's a musical journey back to my roots, but it's also a reflection of every mile I've travelled to get here. Every song carries a piece of the life I've lived, the people I've met, and the lessons I've learned along the way. In many ways, this record feels like coming full circle. After all these years, I'm grateful to finally share this chapter with everyone who's been waiting for it. I hope these songs find a place in your story, just as they've become part of mine,” LAINE concluded.

Joining LAINE in the studio are longtime collaborators Bruno Ravel (his bandmate in The Defiants and also in Danger Danger - bass, producer), Scotty “Hooch” Taylor (drums), and Andrew Oye (lead guitar), with production handled by LAINE and Ravel. The album features standout singles like “Love Me Or Leave Me,” the video-driven “Don’t Let Me Go Tonite,” and the heartfelt “Someday.”

Musically, the record touches every corner of melodic rock. Yet, the songs sound like they’re coming from the classic era when Bon Jovi dominated the airwaves - both in LAINE’s soaring vocals and in the anthemic, hook-laden songwriting. This is an album for fans who crave big choruses, passionate performances, and the kind of timeless melodic rock that only PAUL LAINE can deliver.

Legendary Supergroup ASIA Shares New Single "Arcadia" + Official Video

September 24, 2026

Today, legendary English rock supergroup ASIA shares “Arcadia,” a new extract from their upcoming studio album, ‘Indigo,’ out on November 6, 2026 via Frontiers Music Srl. The official video for the single is available now.

Geoff Downes states:

“The original idea for ‘Arcadia’ was that it was going to be the title of the third ASIA album, which we then later decided to change to ‘Astra.’ However, the word and concept has always been around us, and there have been many suggestions over the years to write a song about it. So, here we are in 2026, 40 years later, and we’ve finally managed to bring it into being. ‘Arcadia’ is a historical Greek region and is depicted as an idyllic pastoral place free from the outside world. Our song symbolizes a retreat from everyday life, an escape if you like to a quieter place, something that we all need to do from time to time.”

Watch the Official Video for "Arcadia" Below:

More than four decades after redefining the sound of melodic progressive rock, ASIAreturns in 2026 with 'Indigo' - a studio album that bridges past, present, and future with remarkable grace and authenticity.

Now featuring Geoffrey Downes alongside an inspired new lineup - Virgil Donati, John Mitchell, and Harry Whitley - ASIA steps confidently into a new era while honoring the legacy that made them one of the most iconic supergroups of all time.

Geoff Downes described the genesis of the album:

“The initial writing period began in 2015, following the release of our previous album 'Gravitas' in 2014. John Wetton and I started putting our ideas together, aiming to get into the studio once more. It was with great sadness that John became seriously ill. During this time, we had put on hold our plans, and sadly, John passed away before we could continue and complete it. So, it was always in my mind that at some point it would be a shame not to finish off some of these songs and finally release them as part of an ASIA album.

“In 2023, when the tribute concert for John took place, I was so encouraged by the response to ASIA’s music that I viewed this as the perfect opportunity to re-establish not only the band, but also to reunite with our long-time supportive label, Frontiers, paving the way for us to get back in the studio”, he continued.

Downes also added:

“So, ASIA was back in the room, so to speak, and we were very fortunate to have recruited Virgil Donati and John Mitchell, both of whom had worked extensively with John before, as well as our new vocalist and bassist, Harry Whitley. The tours followed to great success throughout 2024 and 2025, and finally, we sat down towards the end of last year to record the album. Working with these fine musicians was a great privilege, and the music just seemed to flow.

“The album was really a joy to make. I forged a close writing relationship with Harry, and I felt how great it was to be working with someone who had very similar musical influences and taste once again, just as I did with John. I feel that this is one of our best albums to date. The songs are deep in musicality, with a powerful and original performance, dynamics, and strong lyrical undertones – it’s an album that hopefully our fans will widely appreciate and support our cause to put ASIA back on the map. Enjoy the ride!” he concluded.

Recorded throughout 2025 and produced by Downes and the band, with mixing and mastering handled by John Mitchell, 'Indigo' captures the unmistakable spirit of ASIAwhile injecting it with renewed vitality and purpose.

At the heart of the album lies an emotional connection to the band’s history. 'Indigo' includes some of the final compositions written by the late John Wetton - “Tattoo Indigo (Parts 2 & 3)” and “Chesapeake Bay”- imbuing the record with a profound sense of continuity and tribute. The presence of Wetton is further felt through the extraordinary vocal performance of Harry Whitley, whose tone and phrasing evoke a striking and deeply moving resemblance to the band’s original voice.

Musically, 'Indigo' stands as a natural continuation of ASIA’s acclaimed 21st-century output, while subtly weaving in the sonic DNA of the band’s classic early albums. From soaring melodies to richly layered arrangements, the album delivers the signature blend of accessibility and musicianship that defined hits like “Heat Of The Moment” and “Only Time Will Tell."

The album also features special guest appearances that elevate its scope: Steve Howecontributes acoustic guitar to the evocative “Chesapeake Bay”, while Mike Portnoy(Dream Theater) delivers a powerful performance on the bonus track “Tattoo Indigo (Part 3)."

Following a resurgence of live activity across the US, Japan, and Europe, ASIA is looking forward to taking to the road again.

With 'Indigo,' ASIA don’t just revisit their legacy - they expand it, proving once again that their music remains as vital, resonant, and timeless as ever.

GIRISH AND THE CHRONICLES Share New Single "A New Spark" + Official Video

September 17, 2026

Today, GIRISH AND THE CHRONICLES share their new single and official video, “A New Spark,” ahead of the release of their new album ‘Disintegrate,’ scheduled for release on November 20th via Frontiers Music Srl.

Girish Pradhan states:

“It was a small idea that I had recorded back in 2019 during the ‘Rock The Highway’ era, and now it has finally found its home in our new album. I think this is the highlight of the album for all of us. There are times in life when we feel stuck, surrounded by negativity, and desperate for new beginnings. ‘A New Spark’ is a song about the search for that ‘spark,’ an inspiration, which helps us shed the darkness and gather strength and courage to explore new possibilities in life. There is a whole other world out there.”

Watch the Official Video for “A New Spark” Below:

The band is also thrilled to announce that they will support Guns N’ Roses on November 14th in Bangalore, India.

They commented: “Supporting GNR for the third time is a surreal feeling, considering how small we started and how far we’ve come as a band. It used to be a daydream that nobody would dare to dream, especially in a relatively hidden Himalayan state like Sikkim. This is literally us living our dreams!”

Over the last few years, GIRISH AND THE CHRONICLES have evolved from one of India’s best-kept hard rock secrets into a truly international force. Fueled by extensive European touring and a widely acclaimed appearance on the hit American television show “America’s Got Talent,” the band has experienced remarkable growth, expanding its audience far beyond its homeland and earning recognition among rock fans across the globe.

Now, with their highly anticipated new album for Frontiers Music Srl, GIRISH AND THE CHRONICLES take another step forward. While staying true to the melodic hard rock and classic heavy metal foundations that have always shaped their sound, the band has also explored some new territory on ‘Disintegrate.’

The band comments:

“With this album, we just wanted to play around with the sound a bit. It’s heavier, groovier and darker in places, with some alternative elements coming through, but it still feels like GATC. We didn’t want to overthink it. We just went with what sounded good.

They continue, “There are definitely some different sides of us on this record, both musically and lyrically, and we just want our old and new fans to hear it for themselves.”

At the heart of it all is frontman Girish Pradhan, whose unmistakable voice continues to set the band apart. Possessing a rare combination of power, range, grit, and emotion, Girish channels the spirit of the great rock singers of the past while maintaining a personality and charisma that are entirely his own.

This new release captures a band continuing to grow while staying true to the spirit, passion, and songwriting that have defined GIRISH AND THE CHRONICLES from day one.

‘Disintegrate’ is the sound of GIRISH AND THE CHRONICLES moving forward while remaining true to who they are.

It’s really a thrill to share the stage and vocals with my super talented son Colin Peterik. The song is a nostalgic look back at my younger days. 'We’d make the weekend last till early Monday morn!' Ah yes those were the days. 'When life gets too predictable we say- meet you back- back in the day!' The video for the song was created by the amazing Greg Bizzaro who always catches the essence of every song. Hope you enjoy these moments of our youth as much as we enjoyed re- living them! Stumbling back to school I remain."

THE DAMN TRUTH Releases New Single "Killer Whale" + Official Music Video

August 25, 2026

Riding the wave of their critically acclaimed, JUNO Award-nominated self-titled album, Canadian rock powerhouse THE DAMN TRUTH is turning up the heat ahead of the worldwide release of ‘The Damn Truth (Deluxe Edition)’ on September 11th with the release of their explosive new single “Killer Whale,” complete with a brand-new music video.

Exploding from the band’s acclaimed self-titled album, “Killer Whale” is a live-wire fan favorite that has become a highlight of THE DAMN TRUTH’s electrifying shows. Produced by Bob Rock (Metallica, Bon Jovi, Aerosmith), this adrenaline-fuelled rock anthem surges with power, hope, and celebration.

The band comments:

“In true rock n roll fashion, 'Killer Whale' started with a banging guitar riff. Screaming through the vintage amp, we knew we had something special with this song. Bob heard it too when we recorded it in Vancouver at The Warehouse Studios. The song itself is not about heartbreak. It’s about what gets left behind after all the noise has gone."

They continue, “Night after night, all over the world, 'Killer Whale' gets the rock ’n’ roll party started early in the set, lighting the fire that burns through the full 90 minutes of pure rock ’n’ roll that is THE DAMN TRUTH.”

Watch the Music Video for "Killer Whale" Below:

The release of "Killer Whale" offers fans excitement and celebration as one of the standout tracks from the Deluxe Edition album. The new single also coincides with THE DAMN TRUTH’s UK tour, which kicks off with a free acoustic session at The Gibson Garage in London from 2 –2:30 pm on Thursday, August 27th. The Gibson Garage acoustic session is open to the public. Entry is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Fans are advised to show up early on the day to ensure admission to the rare and intimate acoustic performance. Address: 61–62 Eastcastle Street, London, W1W 8NQ.

Stream / Listen to "Killer Whale" HERE

Originally released in 2025, ‘The Damn Truth’ marked a defining moment in the band's career. Produced by Bob Rock, the self-titled album showcased a band operating at the height of its creative powers, blending timeless rock and roll, blues-infused swagger, powerful songwriting, and the unmistakable voice of frontwoman Lee-la Baum.

Speaking about the album and this next chapter, the band shares:

"When we began writing what would become our self-titled album, 'The Damn Truth,' we knew there was only one way forward: to dig deeper than we’d ever gone before. Not because anyone expected it from us, but because there was a fire burning in this band, a hunger to create something honest, something powerful, something that would move us as much as the records that shaped our lives.

"Bringing Bob Rock into the fold took that vision to another level. There was something truly magical in the air during those sessions, an energy that’s hard to explain and impossible to manufacture. We weren’t just making a record; we were chasing a feeling, capturing moments that felt bigger than ourselves and committing them to tape."

Powerhouse Rock Group SHOGUN MOJO Feat. Kiss Guitarist Tommy Thayer and Dan Reed Announces Debut Self-Titled Album Out on November 6th via Frontiers Music Srl

August 25, 2026

Today, SHOGUN MOJO - the exciting new collaboration between legendary Kiss guitarist Tommy Thayer and acclaimed singer-songwriter Dan Reed of Dan Reed Network fame - makes their debut on Frontiers Music Srl with the announcement of their self-titled album, set for release on November 6, 2026.

To celebrate, the band is also thrilled to unveil the first single, “Under The Gun,” along with an official video.

Dan Reed states:

“In the first single 'Under the Gun'... Tommy kills it, and Bengt and Ikiz lay down a killer funk groove. As for the lyrics, they point at the current trends on earth of more division, more anger, and more fear. I'm simply saying we should be careful of the amount of negativity we populate our lives with, because we just might make it come true. If we bring on dystopia, then we better be prepared for the ride.”

Watch the Official Video for "Under The Gun" Below:

SHOGUN MOJO is the explosive new rock collective masterminded by legendary guitarist Tommy Thayer (KISS, Black ’N Blue) and acclaimed vocalist Dan Reed (Dan Reed Network), uniting decades of arena rock legacy, musical innovation and pure rock’n’roll spirit.

Backed by a Sweden-based and exceptionally tight lineup featuring drummer Robert Mehmeti Kizilcay, guitarist Roger Öjersson and bassist Jake Nyman, the band delivers a debut album packed with towering hooks, driving energy and electrifying performances.

Tommy Thayer comments on the record:

“I’ve always loved doing projects like this because they give me a chance to step outside of my usual world and just create, play guitar, and have fun making music. Dan and I go back a long way, and it’s been great getting to know Bengt and Ikiz over the past year and discovering the chemistry we have together. SHOGUN MOJO really came from that shared energy, getting in a room, playing, writing, and seeing where it took us. There’s a great spirit and camaraderie in this band that comes through in the music, and I’m excited for people to finally hear what we've created together.”

“This debut album is a reflection of all the rock records both Tommy, Bengt, Ikiz, and I grew up listening to! Even Brion James from my band Dan Reed Network has a co-write on the album called 'Funk Party'! What we captured in the studio is playing live together like bands did in the 70s, and the outcome is a record that's a groovy, rowdy funk rock celebration of life. At least that was the goal”, added Dan Reed. “In a world of AI music, we took it back to the roots of having fun writing in a room together and recording in a room together. We hope you feel what we attempted to capture. We are often told, 'People don't want to hear guitar solos anymore'... so Tommy has a guitar solo in every song!”

Pre-Order 'Shogun Mojo' HERE

Musically, SHOGUN MOJO channels the infectious melodic punch of classic late ’70s and early ’80s hard rock, blending the anthemic spirit of KISS with the soulful intensity and unmistakable swagger of Dan Reed’s vocal style. Fans of Dan Reed Network’s 'Slam' will immediately connect with the album’s vibrant mix of massive choruses, funk-infused grooves and feel-good rock energy - but with a warmer, more organic and timeless sound that recalls the golden era of analog-driven rock records.

Raw, dynamic and unapologetically alive, SHOGUN MOJO’s debut is a celebration of big riffs, earworm melodies and the enduring power of classic hard rock reinvented for a new generation.

SPREAD EAGLE Unleashes Powerful Cover of UFO's “Pushed To The Limit” + Official Video

August 18, 2026

Today, hard rock veterans SPREAD EAGLE unleashes their new single and official music video, a powerful cover of UFO's “Pushed To The Limit.” The track is featured on their brand new studio album, ‘The Brutal Divine,’ out now via Frontiers Music Srl.

SPREAD EAGLE are currently on the road on “The Brutal Divine Tour 2026” with dates across the US, and in UK and Europe throughout the summer. For the full list of dates, please see below and HERE.

Rob De Luca comments:

“I was proud to play in UFO for 16 years and one of my favorite songs to play live was 'Pushed To The Limit.' Years later, Ray West suggested we add it to SPREAD EAGLE's live set. That Michael Schenker guitar riff sounds SO nasty, it was a perfect fit for ’The Brutal Divine'!”

Watch the Official Video for "Pushed To The Limit"

'The Brutal Divine' is SPREAD EAGLE’s long-awaited fourth studio album and a fierce new chapter in the band’s uncompromising legacy. Known for their raw energy, streetwise attitude, and explosive live performances, they once again prove why they remain a vital force in modern hard rock.

The band described the new record as “an emotionally and musically heavy body of songs showcasing a unique command of power, dynamics, and melody. We have harnessed the energy of years of non-stop touring and turned it into a metal/punk thrill ride of an album."

“Lyrically, 'The Brutal Divine' challenges us to question our views and ask if we're truly as free-thinking as we may believe. Once that question is posed, the album progresses towards uplifting messages of hope and community”, they continued.

Fronted by the unmistakable voice of Ray West, the band delivers a powerful collection of songs that balance grit and melody, aggression and soul. Guitarist Gianmaria “Jommy” Puledda injects the record with razor-sharp riffs and soaring harmonies, while Rob De Luca(bass, vocals) and Rik De Luca (drums) form a thunderous rhythmic backbone that drives every track with authority and groove.

Produced by Rob De Luca, 'The Brutal Divine' captures the band at their most focused and dynamic - blending their classic hard rock roots with a darker, heavier edge. The album channels the intensity and authenticity that first put SPREAD EAGLE on the map, while showcasing a band that continues to evolve without losing its identity.

With a full slate of live dates planned in support of the release, SPREAD EAGLE is ready to bring 'The Brutal Divine' to stages around the world - where their music truly comes alive. This is hard rock delivered with conviction, attitude, and fire.

"The new 'Best Of' is a celebration of not only our classic hits but also what we’ve created over the last 20 years. And we’re just gonna keep cranking it cause we’re having too much fun to stop! So enjoy the ride and see ya on the road!” – Jack Blades

Watch the Visualizer for "When You Close Your Eyes (2026)" Below:

Few bands have defined the sound of American melodic rock quite like NIGHT RANGER. From the soaring anthem of “Sister Christian” to the thunderous riffs of “Don’t Tell Me You Love Me," and fan favorites like “You Can Still) Rock in America” this album’s ‘Best Of’ collection captures the very essence of their decades-long career — now refreshed for 2026.

Featuring the classic hits alongside standout tracks from their more recent albums, this compilation spans the full spectrum of NIGHT RANGER’s signature sound: anthemic choruses, blazing guitar solos, and unforgettable melodies. Highlights include the power-pop perfection of “(You Can Still) Rock in America,” the heartfelt balladry of “When You Close Your Eyes,” and the cinematic sweep of “Four in the Morning.”

But the ‘Best Of’ is not just a look back. It also celebrates the band’s creative output over the last 20 years, spotlighting tracks like “Time of Our Lives,” “High Road,” “No Time to Lose,” “Somehow Someway,” and “Truth,” proving that NIGHT RANGER’s energy, songwriting, and musicianship have only grown stronger with time. These songs show that the band continues to innovate while staying true to the melodic rock roots that made them legendary.

The band — Jack Blades (bass and vocals), Kelly Keagy (drums and vocals), Brad Gillis(guitars), Eric Levy (keyboards), and Keri Kelli (guitars) — delivers every track with the energy and precision that have kept NIGHT RANGER at the forefront of rock for more than four decades.

This ‘Best Of” album also features two bonus tracks that make this collection of songs truly special: a fresh take on “Wasted Time” recorded live off the floor at Sweetwater Studios, also accompanied by an exclusive music video, and a festive live performance of “Feliz Navidad” that showcases the band’s playful side.

Perfectly timed ahead of their summer 2026 tour, this ‘Best Of’ album serves as both a definitive introduction for new fans and a must-have collection for longtime followers. Whether revisiting the classics or discovering the new 2026 remasters, NIGHT RANGER’s ‘Best Of’ is a celebration of enduring melodies, electrifying performances, and the unforgettable spirit of one of rock’s most iconic bands.

Legendary Supergroup ASIA Unveils New Single "Echo Of You" + Official Video

August 12, 2026

Today, legendary English rock supergroup ASIA unveils their new single, “Echo Of You,”along with an official video, ahead of the release of their new studio album, ‘Indigo,’ out on November 6, 2026 via Frontiers Music Srl.

Geoff Downes comments:

“This song was part of the main writing sessions between Harry and I. It took on a whole different angle in the latter stages of development with more of a focus on electronica and a spacey production. It’s a happy, uplifting tune, despite the nostalgic overtones of the lyrics, a love song with a twist. It all ends in a chaotic mix of counter themes, chord changes, and features a good old-fashioned fadeout as a nod to nostalgia, and I believe is a very fitting conclusion to the album – 'Indigo,' hopefully leaving the listener on a high.”

Watch the Official Video for "Echo Of You" Below:

More than four decades after redefining the sound of melodic progressive rock, ASIA returns in 2026 with 'Indigo' - a studio album that bridges past, present, and future with remarkable grace and authenticity.

Geoff Downes described the genesis of the album:

Downes also added:

“The album was really a joy to make. I forged a close writing relationship with Harry, and I felt how great it was to be working with someone who had very similar musical influences and taste once again, just as I did with John. I feel that this is one of our best albums to date. The songs are deep in musicality, with a powerful and original performance, dynamics and strong lyrical undertones – it’s an album that hopefully our fans will widely appreciate and support our cause to put ASIA back on the map. Enjoy the ride!” he concluded.

Recorded throughout 2025 and produced by Downes and the band, with mixing and mastering handled by John Mitchell, 'Indigo' captures the unmistakable spirit of ASIA while injecting it with renewed vitality and purpose.

The album also features special guest appearances that elevate its scope: Steve Howecontributes acoustic guitar to the evocative “Chesapeake Bay”, while Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater) delivers a powerful performance on the bonus track “Tattoo Indigo (Part 3)."

Following a resurgence of live activity across the US, Japan, and Europe, ASIA is looking forward to taking to the road again.

With 'Indigo,' ASIA don’t just revisit their legacy - they expand it, proving once again that their music remains as vital, resonant, and timeless as ever.
