  • Saliva Premiere “Rivers” Video

    Saliva have premiered a new video for their song “Rivers.” You can check that out below. The track is from the band’s latest album “Breaking Through.” Vocalist Bobby Amaru said the following:

    “‘Rivers‘ was written in honor of my late friend Sam Rivers [Limp Bizkit], who passed away last October. He was a huge inspiration to me, and someone who helped shape my path very early in my career. When I sat down to write this song, I kept coming back to the idea that rivers never truly die; they just keep rolling on. To me, that felt like the perfect metaphor for a life well lived. This song is my way of honoring him, and reminding people that while we may lose someone physically, the legacy they leave behind keeps moving forward, just like a river.”

  • Nervosa Drop Off UK Tour With Xentrix

    Nervosa have dropped off their UK tour with Xentrix. The band made the move due to vocalist/guitarist Prika Amaral‘s current allergy issues.

    Nervosa commented:

    “To all the friends across the UK.

    If one thing is certain in life is that Nervosa loves the road. We never cancel shows but unfortunately due to health concerns with Prika, we will not be able to make the UK run with Xentrix. Don’t worry; we will be back up and running again extremely soon. The tour in North America is NOT cancel and it will happen. Prika just needs time to get better and she will explain more in her social media. We promise we will make it up to you all!

    We Promise!
    Love- Nervosa“

    Amaral added:

    “In October 2024, during our North American tour, I experienced my first episode of cold urticaria (an allergic reaction to cold temperatures). It might sound harmless or even funny, but it really scared me. Right after the tour, I went to see a specialist, a very good doctor, and underwent several tests, but nothing abnormal showed up. I couldn’t continue the investigation because I had more and more tours coming up, and I felt a little more at ease since nothing unusual appeared in my blood tests.

    For a few months, my allergy gave me a bit of a break, and with more tours and other commitments coming up, I kept postponing my follow-up appointment. It’s not just a matter of seeing a doctor. It involves several tests and multiple visits, which require a lot of time. This year, over the past five months, my allergy has gotten worse at an alarming rate. Even sitting in a car with the air conditioning set to 21 °C can trigger a reaction.

    Other allergies have also started to develop and become much more severe, including reactions to sunlight, sand, dish soap, sweat, sunscreen, and more. One episode was so severe that I had to cancel all my shows for the rest of this year. It happened just one day after an outdoor show on a slightly chilly evening — not even that cold. My entire body swelled up, and I experienced intense burning and itching all at once. I came very close to going into anaphylactic shock

    During my most recent shows, I was taking antihistamines. I’vetried a long list of different medications, but none of them has been 100% effective. I’ve always put my work first, but I can’t keep doing that when my life is clearly at risk. That’s why I’m coming back to Brazil to undergo a thorough investigation and get the proper treatment.

    Everything is going to be fine, but I need to take at least two months off, and I need to do it now.

    I’m truly sorry to all my fans in the UK and the Netherlands that we’ll have to cancel our shows. But we’ll have some news for you soon, and I can guarantee it’ll be worth the wait.

    To my fans in North America: the tour will definitely happen, and I’ll be ready to get back on stage!

    Thank you so much for your understanding and support!

    See you soon on the road!”

  • Rush Postpone San Jose, CA Show After Anika Nilles Falls Ill

    Rush have postponed their October 17 show at the SAP Center on San Jose, CA. The set was scrapped after drummer Anika Nilles came down with the flu.

    Rush commented:

    “So sorry everyone! Anika is too ill to perform tonight. Tonight’s RUSH show in San Jose is not happening – now rescheduled for Dec 6, 2026. All previously purchased tickets will be honoured for the new date. Thank you for your understanding and we look forward to coming back and putting on a fantastic show for you.”

    Guitarist Alex “Lerxst” Lifeson added:

    “Hi, it’s Lerxst. So this really sucks. The other night [Thursday, October 15] when we played the first show in San Jose, Anika was ill. She was in the early stages of a flu, but she managed to get through the gig, which was really quite incredible and is a testament to her willpower. But over the last couple of days, she’s gotten a lot worse, and, unfortunately, we’re gonna have to cancel the show tonight. It’s a real bummer. We’re crestfallen. We were really looking forward to it, but it is what it is. So she’s gonna recover hopefully within the next — oh, who knows? — four or five days probably. And then we’re gonna try to come back on December 6th to do the makeup gig here in San Jose. Again, really, really sorry. These things happen. It’s flu season. We’ll do our best to get back in shape and return and put on a fabulous show for all of you. Thank you so much for understanding.”

  • Al Jourgensen: “I Think That Ministry Has Run Its Course”

    As previously reported, Ministry are planning to disband following the touring cycle for their new album “Hate To Go (Take Out Or Delivery)” (out October 30). Now, during a recent interview with Hit Parader, frontman Al Jourgensen further explained the decision, saying the band “has run its course.”

    Jourgensen said the following:

    “I figure it’s time. We’ve taken our genre and this band as far as we can go.

    I’m really happy with this album and I think it’s a culmination of 40 years of the same elements. Like I said, it’s a good one to go out on. I’m really happy with the way this came out. But I’m not enthused about continuing to keep doing this kind of music or music in general.

    I just think that Ministry has run its course. And I’m glad it was here when it was here. But I have no regrets looking back on it and everything. It would get boring, and it would get really repetitive. And I don’t think the product would be as good if I tried to do another one. So, I think it’s the proper time. Plus, I’m 68 years old. It’s, like, God bless The Rolling Stones. They’re in their 80s. They do a new record and this and that. But I just have other interests. Basically, I never wanted to do this anyways. It’s pretty well documented that I just wanted to be a history professor for high school and college. And then I had these demo tapes that started selling and all of a sudden, I’m in a band and I’m trying to put together the band. I auditioned like 10 or 12 singers. I did not want to be singer. If anything, I always wanted to be Jimmy Page, not Robert Plant. And here I was, it just kept dragging me in. I kind of felt like Michael Corleone in ‘Godfather 3.’ Every time I try and get out, they pull me back in. So, it just kept getting to be more and more of this behemoth. I didn’t really set out to do this path to start with, but I guess I was able to do it well enough to sustain a 45-year career but there comes a time.”
