  • American Head Charge’s “The War Of Art” Returns To Streaming Services

    American Head Charge’s “The War Of Art” has officially returned to streaming services. This news comes shortly after “The Feeding” was uploaded to streaming services. Holiday Kirk (The Nu Metal Agenda) said the following:

    “It is once again my honor and privilege to announce that The War of Art by American Head Charge – my favorite album of all time – is once again available on streaming platforms in North America. I don’t have as much to say prepared this time, it happened a bit ahead of schedule, but if I have the ability to recommend just one album to you it’s this. It is to nu metal what Dark Side of the Moon is to prog, what Disintegration is to goth, what OK Computer is to alternative. It is easily one of the greatest albums ever made and a massive wrong has been made right today. Thank you again to @cronen23 and @regimemusicgroup for cracking legal skulls. Thank you to The Something Beautiful Project for the support. And thank you Cam for everything else, this album saved my life, I’m only trying to return the favor.”

Much respect to those guys, and we’re ready to crush this thing together.”

  • Watch Queens Of The Stone Age’s Troy Van Leeuwen And Failure’s Kellii Scott Take Part In Signal’s “Cardboard Sessions”

    Troy Van Leeuwen (Queens Of The Stone Age, ex-Failure) and Kellii Scott (Failure) recently took part in Signal’s “Cardboard Sessions.” You can see footage of that below. The following was said about the video:

    “Troy Van Leeuwen, guitarist for Queens of the Stone Age and former member of Failure, picked up the Cardboard Hollow Body Jazz acoustic and started riffing, all style and feel. Just warming up, getting a sense of the guitar. Then Kellii rolls in, sits behind the kit.The two hadn’t played together in years. But the second they locked in, you could feel it. Something familiar snapped back to life. You could feel the room shift. This is the magic of a two-piece, space. Every note counts. Every hit lands harder. This Cardboard Session lands somewhere between the desert drive of Queens and the deep atmospheric pulse of Failure, two bands we’ve loved for a very long time. This one’s raw, loud, and alive. Press play and let it rip.”

  • Dance Gavin Dance Share Re-Recorded Version Of “The Robot With Human Hair, Pt. 3”

    Dance Gavin Dance have shared a new video for the re-recorded version of their song “The Robot With Human Hair, Pt. 3.” That track is taken from the band’s new album, “Tree City Sessions 3,” which will be released digitally on May 22 (pysical copies out June 19). Vocalist Andrew Wells commented:

    “The entire ‘Tree City Sessions’ series has given us the opportunity to showcase each lineup’s strengths on various songs throughout the entire catalog. Growing up I was a huge fan of the ‘Deathstar’ album, so being able to emulate Kurt and bring my own passion to this version of ‘Robot 3’ was truly an honor.”

  • Lex Legion (King Diamond, Etc.) Premiere “Gypsy Tears” Video

    Lex Legion, the new project featuring King Diamond alumni Mikkey Dee, Andy La Rocque, Pete Blakk, and Hal Patino alongside Pagan’s Mind’s Nils K. Rue, have premiered a new video for their new song “Gypsy Tears.” This track is from the band’s new self-titled album, which will be released on June 12.

    Dee commented:

    “It’s now time to release our second single; ‘Gypsy Tears.’ Another great song with a lot of fire and bite, this one is a real driving banger! The video, it’s more of a short movie, does a great job of telling the story in the lyrics. Release is on the 5th of May. Check it out!”

    Rue continued:

    “At its core, the song is a dark portrait of obsession, told through the eyes of a watcher who cannot let go. The video re-imagines this as a timeless story of love and longing that stretches beyond reality itself. Through layered metaphors, the lyrics transform personal conflict into vast, symbolic landscapes—where emotional collapse feels like war-torn ground.”

    Blakk added:

    “‘Gypsy Tears’ is the essence of me, Mikkey, Andy and Hal. With me and Andy trading off solos and the power of Mikkey and Hal’s rhythm section all supporting the powerful vocals of Nils, the song really brings a new dimension to metal in 2026. The video is tasteful, mystical and raw. It’s a piece of art that will leave no one untouched.”
