... The new video from THROWER, "Happy When We're Bleeding" is now available.

It started with scrolling on Instagram and seeing someone die, and just being exposed to the craziest things that created this song. We tried to create something cool and interesting, taking inspiration from the likes of MCR, Soundgarden, and Ozzy Osbourne. Also, just the fact that we are getting to collaborate with Craig Mabbitt of Escape the Fate is awesome. We love his work, and we are seriously just so stoked for what’s to come for the band.” Check it out here ...

... Sentinels of New Dawn," the new album from AQUILLA, will be released on October 31st via High Roller Records. Says the band's Peter Slammer: "There is an existing lore within our songs. We are all enthusiasts of both classic and modern sci-fi creations, and thus our music tells a story of mankind's last remaining survivors who decide to settle on a distant planet called Yvad'a'ra. The previous album was where that concept was fully developed and is continued on this record. The story picks up some time after the previous one. The titular 'New Dawn' is what humans called this new era of their history on the planet, where hundreds of settlements were established, and different fractions arose, fractions that aren't necessarily friendly towards each other. So we have mad space pirates ('Plunder And Steel', crazy berserk-like mercenaries ('Battalion 31') or technological overlords ('Technocrat's Tyranny'). And everyone fights each other, just like in real life. This was also quite a challenge for Captain Paradox as a lyricist and joining in to a band that has this type of pre-established lore. Catching up with the story and adjusting the writing approach were necessary, so it would fit the concept, as both 'Sentinels Of New Dawn' and 'Mankind's Odyssey' are pretty much concept albums. The lore itself isn't that strict really, apart from the general concept of mankind on a distant planet, so it leaves a lot of room for imagination, creativity and open interpretations for the audience as well" ...

... Pop punkers CHIEF STATE have released their new single, "No Brakes." According to frontman Fraser Simpson: "Summer 2022 we were sailing down the interstate heading from Houston, Texas, to Austin when all of a sudden the worst thing happened - no brakes. I was driving at the time and so to not create panic, I didn't mention our predicament to the rest of the guys until I managed to grind the van to a halt with what brake fluid we had left. What happened next was a week of being stranded in Austin (s/o Rare Bloom for letting us crash) while we waited for an out of stock part to arrive to fix our van. The mechanic then said our vehicle was so rusted he wouldn't advise driving 50 yards down the street, we cancelled shows, we ran out of money, we considered flying home. The poignant lyric 'Nothing ever goes our way' repeats throughout the song because honestly, nothing has ever gone our way. But here we are, back again, doing the thing we love because we're young and dumb and would like another excuse to get in a van and tour the continent. To quote another line from the song: 'Nothing like a little bit of latent fear, of dying young and dumb without my loved ones near' - sign us up!" Check it out here ...

Says the band's Justin Warfield: “For years I’ve dreamed of writing a Halloween song which could not only be the kind of song I wished existed for my own playlists and listening, but so that I could contribute something to the pantheon if you will. Like, why can’t I write an evergreen holiday song for the goths, punks, death rockers, and freaks who live it before and after October? One day I walked in the studio, picked up a guitar, and immediately started playing. As luck would have it and as sometimes is the case, what came off my fingers straight away felt right.” Check it out here ...

We have a synergy whenever we get together; it’s infectious, and things happen quickly. Tyler jumped behind the drums, and I started jamming the verse groove with the guitar. Within minutes, we had carved out the entire bones of the song in an old-school way of a jam. Lyrically speaking. ‘Ghost’ is something we can all relate to. It’s all about trying to live up to the voices inside your head, staying away from the insecurities and fear we all have running in our minds. It is about facing your fears, accepting the mind wars, and ultimately conquering them." Check it out here ...

... "The Great Path of Reconstruction," the latest progressive metal piece from THE ZAKI ALI BAND, has been released. Says Zaki: "'The Great Path of Reconstruction' symbolizes a journey of ridding toxicity from one's surroundings in order to position themselves for success. The video metaphorically and subliminally displays chaos in reverse order as things return to their original state. The idea behind the video was really to capture the beauty in the scenery and since each riff in the song changes keys, have a different color grade essentially represent the melodic feeling of what is happening musically."

... CHMCL STR8JCKT have released their cover version of THE STEVE MILLER BAND's "Abracadabra," taken from their forthcoming album, "IV-RX," due out October 17th. Says keyboard player Kevin Snell, “We thought it would be good to end the (occasionally grueling) sessions with a light cover of a popular song. I picked ‘Abracadabra’ because I always kinda liked the original...but also thought it was cheesy as hell. It's kinda poppy for an otherwise pretty heavy album that we had just created. Mike C loved it and tuned to a drop A on a 7 string guitar to give it some heavy guitar crunch. JB (Bechdel) actually loves a good digital dance groove (think early Ministry) and went to town on the synths and drum machines really taking my demo to the next level. Bam! It's done and the sessions ended on a really fun note.” Check it out here ...

... "Always Moving: The Strange Multiverse of Voivod," by author Jeff Wagner, will be released on November 17th. The book covers the over forty year career of the band. According to Wagner: "It’s a total honor to have written this book. The band were entirely forthcoming and super-helpful with their time, as was their manager, James MacLean. I spoke to every living member – except one – for this book. I also spoke with folks like Monte Conner, Brian Slagel, Glen Robinson, Wayne Archibald, Harris Johns, Ian Christe, and members of Opeth, Cynic, Anekdoten, Virus, Deceased, Sindrome, Agalloch, Therion, Enslaved, The Accused and Gorguts – and a bunch of other folks! – to help get the most rounded, complete picture of the band’s influence and impact from people who have been close to them in a variety of capacities. And I held nothing back. There’s almost no stone left unturned, hence the size of the book (540 pages). Even the two Appendixes are total nerd-fests that I think fans will find amusing and interesting. I know I’m psyched with the book, as a fan, so I think a lot of other diehard Voïvodians will be too.” For more information or to pre-order the book, click here ...
