• Roman Candle Premiere “Can We Watch Something Happy” Video

    Roman Candle have released a new song titled “Can We Watch Something Happy.” You can find an official video for that track below:

    Vocalist Piper Ferrari commented:

    “‘Can We Watch Something Happy‘ is written from the perspective of my childhood self. I struggled with severe OCD growing up, which was intensified by being raised in a religious household. I wasn’t diagnosed until much later, so for most of my youth I didn’t understand what was happening — I just remember being scared all the time.

    There was a constant cycle of praying for the intrusive thoughts to go away, eventually giving in to them, and then praying again for forgiveness. That’s where the repeated ‘one more time’ comes from. It wasn’t about depression or suicidality; it was about trying to survive this overwhelming fear of thoughts I didn’t want, and then feeling deep guilt because I believed even having those thoughts was a sin.”

  • UnityTX Premiere “Enjoy Tha Show” Music Video

    UnityTX have premiered a new video for their new song “Enjoy Tha Show.” This track is from the band’s new album, “Somewhere, In Between…,” which will be released on March 13 via Pure Noise Records.

    Vocalist Jay “Shaolin G” Webster commented:

    “‘Enjoy Tha Show‘ was crafted to provoke thought on the narratives we embrace as humans, sharing our experiences to foster connection. After much reflection, I aimed to create something that resonated with my audience and mirrored my struggles. Seeking comfort among those who don’t understand the pain of feeling ethnically out of place can be daunting.

    At times, the words of strangers would sting so deeply that I’d share them with others. It felt like a natural reaction, yet my friends urged me to rise above it. Ignoring it was harder than I thought, as I was expected to just perform and push through the noise. So, I shifted my approach to simply enjoying the experience.

    Unknowingly, I built my life around catering to critics, only to realize that the audience often reacts negatively when you stray from their expectations. This goes beyond music; our society often limits opportunities for those daring to be themselves. It’s frustrating, and I accept that it’s a tragic reality. My identity is shaped by my experiences and environment, and that cannot be changed. Where do we draw the line between empathy and judgment?”

    He also added:

    “When we got into the industry, we had to start playing by the industry rules and not so much by the rules that I had set for us. I was trying my hardest to stick to my code, but it felt like it wasn’t ever going to work. This album is what UnityTX used to be before we got picked up. It’s letting go of all the tension that made us feel like we couldn’t do anything in this space and trying to push past that and reach—not our maximum potential—but start to see where else this can go. We’re trying to evolve both as a band and as people.”

  • Dogma Announce U.S. Tour With Frayle

    Dogma have announced a headlining U.S. tour. Frayle will serve as support.

    Tour Dates:

    03/15 Seattle, WA – Substation
    03/17 San Francisco, CA – The Independent
    03/18 Los Angeles, CA – 1720
    03/19 Reno, NV – The Alpine
    03/20 Anaheim, CA – House of Blues
    03/21 San Diego, CA – House of Blues
    03/24 San Antonio, TX – Vibes Studio
    03/25 Dallas, TX – Trees
    03/27 Madison, WI – The Annex at The Red Zone
    03/28 Joliet, IL – The Forge
    03/29 Chesterfield, MI – Diesel Concert Lounge
    03/31 New York, NY – The Gramercy Theater
    04/01 Washington, DC – Black Cat
    04/02 Bethlehem, PA – Fowler Blast Furnace Room
    04/03 Philadelphia, PA – Kung Fu Necktie

    This news comes after Dogma’s management replaced singer Grace Jane Pasturini (Lilith) and guitarists Amber Maldonado (Lamia) and Patri Grief (Rusalka). That trio recently launched a new band, called VindictA, after accusing management of “manipulation,” “mistreatment,” etc. Other musicians have since come forward with accusations as well.

    The current Lilith commented on the tour:

    “Last October and November, during our last U.S tour dates, we carried a message that was still taking shape. Some paths were broken before they could be completed, and certain cities were left waiting. That tension did not fade. It stayed with us, sharpened us, and demanded a proper return.”

    ‘Time to Rise Part I U.S. Tour” 2026 emerges from that demand. What comes next carries intention, consequence, and elements that will not announce themselves in advance. There will be moments you are not prepared for, choices you didn’t plan to make, impulses you didn’t expect to feel, and yet, you will feel them. Anaheim and Reno are part of that reckoning.

    To the sinners who remained present despite uncertainty: this chapter is written with you in mind. What rises now does so with purpose, weight, memory… and temptations that will test how far you’re willing to go.”

  • Bleed From Within Share Audiotree Live Session

    Bleed From Within have shared footage of their April 25, 2025 session at Audiotree in Chicago, IL. You can check out that in-studio performance and interview below. The band commented:

    “We’ve had our eyes on Audiotree for quite some time. We saw this as an opportunity to showcase our material in a new light, without the usual production that we have with us in a live environment. In an age of over produced records & bands editing live footage, it felt refreshing to walk into a room and just play our instruments knowing that this was our one take and only chance to dial it in. There were no run throughs or drop ins. Play it loud, then come see it in the flesh in April/May on our first ever headline tour of North America!”

  • Puscifer Announce “Normal Isn’t: Puscifer Live At The Pacific Stock Exchange” Screenings

    Puscifer will be screening their new film, “Normal Isn’t: Puscifer Live at the Pacific Stock Exchange,” in select locations on February 6-8. The effort will also be available digitally on February 9. The film features the band’s August 11, 2025 show at Exchange L.A. in Los Angeles, CA. That set saw the group performing their new album, “Normal Isn’t,” in full.

    The following was said about the film:

    “Filmed at Los Angeles’ original stock exchange, an art deco landmark long rumored to be among the city’s most haunted sites, Normal Isn’t: Puscifer Live at the Pacific Stock Exchange captures a new chapter for Puscifer.

    Documenting the first-ever live performance of Normal Isn’t, the film features an entirely new stage setup, new costumes, and a graphic-rich light show. As tracks like ‘Self Evident,’ ‘Pendulum,’ and ‘Bad Wolf‘ pulse through the building’s granite-lined interior, Maynard James Keenan, Carina Round, Mat Mitchell, Gunnar Olsen, and Josh Moreau deliver a visceral, high-energy performance that brings the album to life.”

    Frontman Maynard James Keenan (Tool, etc.) also commented on the screenings:
