Madball have premiered a new video for their new song “Tethered.” This track is from the band’s new album, “Not Your Kingdom,” which will be released on July 24. Vocalist Freddy Cricien commented:
“‘Tethered’ is the opening song on the record and that’s ironic because it’s one of the last ones written for the album. I love the vibe, very bouncy groovy NYHC that really transported me back to the ’90s — hence the lyrics/theme. To my ears, it has a ‘nostalgic’ feel but still manages to come across as something new for us! Made sense for it to be the second single to demonstrate the diversity of the album — the whole thing is a story, a ride of sorts and this one as the opener really sets a good pace sonically and lyrically.”
Ho99o9 have premiered a new video for their new song “Power In Numbers.” You can check that out below. The single serves as “a powerful message rooted in unity, resistance, and collective strength.”
On June 9, Rush’s new lineup, bassist/vocalist Geddy Lee, guitarist Alex Lifeson, drummer Anika Nilles, and keyboardist Loren Gold, performed the band’s entire “2112” suite during the second night of their “Fifty Something” tour at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, CA. You can see fan-filmed footage of that below. Notably, the concert also included the tour debuts of “The Analog Kid,” “Leave That Thing Alone,” “Headlong Flight,” and “The Trees.”
Left To Die, the Death tribute project featuring Terry Butler (Obituary, ex-Death), Rick Rozz (ex-Death), Matt Harvey (Gruesome, Exhumed), and Gus Rios (Gruesome), have shared “Witch Of Hell” from their upcoming album “Initium Mortis.” As previously reported, that effort will be released on July 17.
Sebastian Bach, Doug Aldrich, Bob Daisley, Carmine Appice, Mick Box, and Jonathan Cain have shared a new video for their take on Rainbow’s “Man On The Silver Mountain.” That track is from the new Rainbow tribute album, “Ride The Rainbow – The Ultimate Tribute To Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow,” which will be released on June 19.

unpeople have premiered a new song titled “friends.” This track is from the band’s new album, “we are unpeople,” which will be released on October 9. Vocalist Jake Crawford commented:
“‘friends’ is essentially a love song from the perspective of someone who is wholly sceptical about the very concept of love and what it’s come to mean in a modern context. I am essentially saying I am going to kill the very concept of love before it’s even had a chance to get a hold of me – I am that afraid of being that vulnerable. I’d rather not bother than risk saying something I don’t mean, and then pay for it emotionally down the line. I’m fully aware that this is not necessarily healthy, but the mind takes you to some strange places when strong feelings are involved.”

Ocean Sleeper will be releasing a new album, titled “Peace When I’m Dead,” on August 21. A video for the title track can be found below:
Vocalist Karl Spiessl commented:
“This band has never been afraid to dive into the darker parts of our lives, and this album is no exception. At its core, the record explores the ongoing battle we have with ourselves — that constant inner struggle that can feel endless. It’s about coming to terms with the idea that this conflict may always be part of the human experience, and learning to accept that reality.”
He also added the following about the song:
“Nothing good comes easy and is worth every fall in pushing forward. For us, like many others, opportunities haven’t come easily to this band but we have worked tirelessly to achieve our wins and will continue to push forward until peace comes to us all.”
