Electric Callboy recently took part in Musora’s “Covers On The Spot” series. For this episode, the band were tasked with covering Michael Sembello’s “Maniac.” You can see how that went down below:
To The Grave have premiered a lyric video for their new song “TORTURE PORN.” This track is from the band’s new album, “LIBERATION FRONT,” which will be released on October 2. Vocalist Dane Evans said the following about the single:
“‘TORTURE PORN‘ might be the biggest fight riff song we have. Lyrically, I wanted to state as bluntly as possible that we don’t care if you hate us, what we stand for or how we choose to stand for it; TTG hates you too. Enjoy the song. Everyone’s still a murderer.”
Devil Master have premiered a new video for their new song “Death Anthem.” This track is from the band’s new album, “Bloody Dreams,” which will be released on September 4. Guitarist Darkest Prince said the following about the single:
“[‘Death Anthem‘] is an homage eulogy to G.I.S.M. – our label mates with visionary Sakevi Yokohama having passed on August 23 2023, and his cohort Randy Uchida in 2001. Lyrically you can hear our calls to Satan, Dionysus and Kali respectively! Fangs to Eva and crew for the video.”
MOUTH BREAKER have premiered a new video for their new song “Step Down.” You can check that out below. The track is from their new EP, “MoshUp,“ which will be released on September 9.
The group commented:
“When we started in 2023, the original idea was to be something closer to a traditional hardcore band. It was pretty clear by the second or third track we released that this was not to be the case – something far more dissonant and polyrhythmic was insisting in the writing process. On ‘STEP DOWN,’ it feels like we finally let our creative drives run uninhibited and it felt like we broke through a wall to a new understanding of the band’s sound. Adept listeners will hear us invoke rhythms from 90’s-era Meshuggah, but we definitely weren’t aiming for a simple nostalgia trip.
Mixing those rhythms into our sound made them feel new and Blake (vocals) took it to the nines, delivering some of his nastiest verses to date. The verse over the bridge and build-up goes into some new territory, more of a grime flow which we didn’t expect at all. ‘STEP DOWN’ also takes aim at some particularly toxic traits and individuals we encountered, but it also tangles with the realization that gaining some adversaries is a sure sign that your art is taking risks and deflating some egos in the process. For us, that’s as good a reason as any to forge on.”
Exumer have premiered a new song titled “Allocated Savagery.” This track is from the band’s new album, “Death Mask Messiah,” which will be released on August 28. According to vocalist Mem V. Stein, the single focuses on the 1993 Waco siege:
“’Allocated Savagery’ delivers a brutal musical and lyrical account of the event. The track captures the intensity of the confrontation with the ATF, while reflecting on themes of misinformation and division that still resonate today.”
Sleep’s new lineup, bassist/vocalist Al Cisneros, guitarist Bubba Dupree (Void) and drummer Dale Crover (Melvins), have announced a new album titled “Hemispheres.” The effort will be released digitally on September 3 and physically on October 30 via Third Man Records. The second single, “The Morrisist,” can be found below. Here’s the full track listing:
01. “Have Spacesuit Will Travel”
02. “The Morrisist”
03. “Hempispheres”
04. “Arrival of the Industry Ships”
05. “Whole Wheat Mountain Well Baked”

Decessus, the death metal project featuring Miss World Chile 2025 winner Ignacia Fernández, have signed with BLKIIBLK. The label will handle the release of the band’s debut album.

Fernández said the following:
“We’re incredibly honored to announce that Decessus has officially joined the BLKIIBLK family. Our new chapter has begun, and we’re incredibly eager to see what the future will bring. This is a milestone we’ve worked towards for a long time, and how rewarding is the opportunity to be part of such an incredible roster of artists. It is part of our vision to push our music and what Decessus is further, reaching new audiences, and sharing some really precious metal moments.
To everyone who has supported us throughout this journey, our fans, friends, families, and everyone who has believed in Decessus from the very beginning, thank you. Your support has made moments like this possible. We can’t wait to show you what is coming next!! Horns up!”
Mike Gitter, who serves as the head of A&R at Frontiers Label Group, also commented:
“Decessus is both an unexpected success story in the making and a testament to the drive, talent and vision of Ignacia and the band. When we heard the new material the band had recorded for the upcoming album, it was instant as it masterfully weaves together elements of death metal, progressive metal and djent in a thoroughly modern way that will cement Decessus on the world stage.”
Xandria have shared an official video for the title track of their new album “Eclipse.” That effort will be released on August 7. Mastermind Marco Heubaum said the following about the single:
“‘Eclipse’ is fast, heavy and full of fire. The sun represents the light of civilisation, while the moon slowly moves in front of it and leaves the world in darkness. Musically, the song turns this image into an epic battle, with Ambre moving between powerful rock vocals, operatic singing and growls in a performance that still leaves me speechless. But an eclipse does not last forever. The song is about refusing to accept the darkness as the new normal: ‘No, we won’t let them win this war.’”
Accept have shared a new version of their song “Save Us.” The updated track features Ghost singer Tobias Forge, Korn drummer Ray Luzier, and Anthrax bassist Frank Bello. You can stream it below. The new take on the song is from Accept’s new guest-filled 50th anniversary album “Teutonic Titans 1976–2026″ (out September 4). Wolf Hoffmann commented:
“Tobias was not really on my radar. Obviously, I know Ghost, and they’re huge, but last year he turned up at one of our shows when we played in Stockholm, and we were chatting a little bit, and he said that his favorite song was ‘Save Us,’ and at one point. he was considering using it as a cover song on one of their albums, but it never panned out. ‘Save Us?’ I don’t even remember that song. Nobody has even mentioned that song! I had to go back and listen to it. After I saw a Ghost show, it all made sense to me. It really fits his style and I could really imagine him doing that song really well. He’s right, it’s a fun song!”
Wargaming have revealed the details for this year’s “Metal Fest” in “World Of Tanks Modern Armor.” Act 1 of the in-game event will take place on August 4-24 and it will feature Five Finger Death Punch. The artist for Act 2 will be announced on September 1.
