  • Shinedown Drop Off Kid Rock’s Rock The Country Festival

    Shinedown have dropped off Kid Rock’s Rock The Country Festival. The band made the decision after facing backlash for performing alongside right-wing artists like Rock, Jason Aldean, etc. amid political strife brought on by Donald Trump’s administration. Ironically, Shinedown’s cancellation comes shortly after drummer Barry Kerch called rapper Ludacris a “coward” for backing out of the event.

    Shinedown issued the following statement:

    “SHINEDOWN is everyone’s band. We feel that we have been given a platform to bring all people together through the power of music and song.

    We have one BOSS, and it is everyone in the audience. Our band’s purpose is to unite, not divide. With that in mind, we have made the decision that we will not be playing the Rock The Country Festival.

    We know this decision will create differences of opinion. But we do not want to participate in something we believe will create further division.

    And to our fans, thank you for supporting and believing in us.

    We love and appreciate you always.

    All love and respect,

    SHINEDOWN”

  • Eva Under Fire Premiere New Song “Murder Scene”

    Eva Under Fire have premiered a lyric video for their new song “Murder Scene.” You can check that out below. Singer Amanda Lyberg commented:

    “‘Murder Scene’ explores eating disorders, body dysmorphia, self-doubt, and how dreams can become nightmares when the same people who once cheered for you are now criticizing you. The dream of being on stage comes with a spotlight on my personal flaws. I’m just a body. To be picked apart and judged and perceived. Anxiety is a liar in my head. It tells me I’m not good enough to be here. So, I fight it. I changed my name and my image to prove it wrong. Still the anxiety gets louder. I think it’s trying to kill me. In a world so desensitized, it feels like death has been redefined as a minor inconvenience. I’m insecure about my body so anxiety might win. My skin is crawling, and every part of my body feels wrong. Maybe I’ll call a doctor and get it altered. Maybe if I don’t eat, I’ll feel better.”

  • Puscifer Premiere “Bad Wolf” Video

    Puscifer have premiered a new video for their new song “Bad Wolf.” This track is from the band’s newly released album “Normal Isn’t.” Frontman Maynard James Keenan commented:

    “Oral Tradition, the practice of passing down legends, myths, and metaphors, has always fascinated me. The stories contain history, important lessons, values, social contracts and the like. One of my favorites has always been the Cherokee tale of the Two Wolves. This story serves as a metaphor for our inner battle between good/wise/loving choices and poor/selfish/hateful choices. The wolf that thrives is the wolf you feed.”

  • Haste The Day Premiere New Song “Shallows”

    Haste The Day have premiered a new song titled “Shallows.” This track is from the band’s new album “Dissenter,” which will be released on May 1. The group had the following to say about the single:

    “‘Shallows‘ captures the core of what we set out to create on this record — aggressive, melodic metalcore. Driven by high-energy riffs, heavy breakdowns, and a memorable chorus, the song balances nostalgia with contemporary influence. Lyrically, it confronts disillusionment, corruption, and the cost of defiance.”

    01. “Cycles“
    02. “Shallows“
    03. “Grave“
    04. “Burn“
