  • Rise Against Share New Songs “Katy Bar The Door” And “Living Undercover”

    Rise Against have shared two new songs, “Katy Bar The Door” and “Living Undercover.” You can check out those tracks below:

    Vocalist Tim McIlrath said the following about “Katy Bar The Door,” which takes its name from an old phrase about impending trouble:

    “I don’t know where I came across this expression, but I immediately was taken with it. While an obscure reference now… I liked the idea of resurrecting it for this song, and that it sort of fits what it feels like to be alive in 2026.”

    He went on to say it was written following the violent ICE raids in Minneapolis:

    “This is not the first time in history we have reckoned with abuses of power. Bearing witness to the fragility of democracy is a scary thing, and it demands a response.”

    He also commented on “Living Undercover,” which focuses on things hidden in plain sight:

    “Sometimes it’s because we’re building something beautiful behind the curtain, other times we’re hiding some kind of darkness. I like the cloak and dagger feel of the song that ties into its central theme.”

    04. “After The Storm”
    05. “Heaven Help Us”
    06. “Come And Find Me”

    Frontman John Cooper commented:

    “‘After the Storm’ is special to me because it reignites what Skillet was always meant to be—which is music that helps lift people out of dark times. I wrote these songs because I needed to be lifted out of my own darkness.”

    The effort’s second single, “Lift Me Up,” can be found below. Cooper added the following about that track:

    “‘Lift Me Up’ reminds me of early Skillet, but it still feels fresh. When I wrote it, so many things were dragging me down. I was asking God to lift me up. It’s a reminder that even when life feels overwhelming, there is still hope.”

  • Narcotic Wasteland (Ex-Nile) Premiere New Song “Fentanyl Zombie Apocalypse”

    Narcotic Wasteland, the project featuring former Nile guitarist/vocalist Dallas Toler-Wade, have released a new song titled “Fentanyl Zombie Apocalypse.” You can check that out below. Toler-Wade commented:

    “I am very excited to release our new song, ‘Fentanyl Zombie Apocalypse!’ The song is, of course, about the fentanyl epidemic and the overall impact it has on an already failing country. Musically, it really captures the mood of this very well. Fast and tricky yet twisted and catchy! Kenji really brought some great bass and keys to the table. And Austin needs a drum set that won’t collapse under pressure! I am super proud of the work we have done together, and I cannot wait to show the world what we have been working on behind the scenes.”

  • Evil Island Share Video For “T-Hexx” Featuring Fugazi’s Guy Picciotto

    Evil Island (The Blood Brothers, ex-Glassjaw, etc.) have premiered a new video for their song “T-Hexx.” The track, which features Fugazi’s Guy Picciotto, is from the band’s new album, “Terraform The Afterlife,” which was released today (August 14)

    Picciotto previously commented:

    “Last November I got a text from Cody Votolato checking in and asking to talk on the phone. I had worked as a producer with Cody and his Blood Brothers compatriots on their last album ‘Young Machetes’ and those guys had become some of the dearest people in the world to me.

    The experience of making that record was such a blast – both hilarious in terms of humor and hijinx but also hugely revitalizing to me in terms of getting to watch their musicality, their creativity and their camaraderie up close.

    I had been blown away by their reunion shows the year before and had thought they were even better than ever so I was expecting Cody to maybe drop news of more shows in the offing. I certainly wasn’t expecting him to drop the bomb that he, Johnny and Mark had formed a new band with Autry and that they were already fully in deep tracking an album with Ross Robinson back in the producer saddle with them.

    I was even more surprised when Cody asked if I would be up for singing back-ups on one of the tracks. Given that my general attitude vis-a-vis the Blood Brothers is that I would take a bullet for any of them, I felt like I had to at least give it a shot despite not having sung on a recording since the last Fugazi album ‘THE ARGUMENT’ back in 2002.”

  • Reminitions Premiere “Hellraiser” Video

    Reminitions have premiered a new video for their new song “Hellraiser.” This track is from the band’s new EP, “Death Cult,” which will be released on September 4. The group commented:

    “Our new single, ‘Hellraiser,’ is one of our favorite tracks with some hard-hitting riffs and breakdowns that’ll wake you up and have you sprinting to the moshpit. Lyrically, this takes you into the mind of a serial killer whose bloodlust is becoming unhinged. Visions of committing murders plague their mind as they lose grip and we find out that the visions are premonitions of what’s to come. Visually, this will be one of our best music videos to date. Thanks for your continued support and enjoy.”

  • Late Mastodon Guitarist Brent Hinds Featured On New CKY Song “Beware Of The Heartless”

    Late Mastodon guitarist Brent Hinds is featured on a new CKY song titled “Beware Of The Heartless.” You can stream that track below:

    Vocalist/guitarist Chad I Ginsburg commented:

    “We were reminded that it was a year since our friend Brent passed away. Brent played a solo on a song we recorded called ‘Beware of the Heartless’ and I thought, ‘why would I leave this on my computer?’ Brent took the time to play on it and we loved him, and in honor of his passing, we were too bummed out in the moment to think about that shit, but I want to throw it out there because I don’t want to hold onto it forever. I want to let go of it and give it to everyone.”

    The band added:

    “This is the second CKY song to feature Brent’s guitar, following ‘Days of Self Destruction’ from ‘The Phoenix.’

    We were supposed to finally hit the UK together last fall, with Brent’s band Fiend Without A Face. We were all looking forward to it, but sadly that never got to happen.

    We miss you, Brent.”

  • SAVE US Premiere “Far” Video

    SAVE US have premiered a new video for their new song “Far.” This track is from the band’s new album, “Death To Something,” which will be released on October 16. Vocalist Miguel Owls commented:

    “‘Far’ will always hold a special place in my heart. It came to life right at the halfway point of being away from home while making the album, when the homesickness really started to hit. I was restless, missing everything familiar, and it was the longest I’d ever been away from my wife. This song dives into that feeling, chasing something you’ve always dreamed of, while carrying the weight of being far from the person you love most. It’s that push and pull between purpose and pain.”
