  • Kill The Lights Premiere “Iron Bite” Music Video

    Kill The Lights (ex-Bullet For My Valentine, etc.) have premiered a new video for their new song “Iron Bite.” The band shared more information on the single:

    “After two years of silence, Kill the Lights return with ‘Iron Bite,‘ hitting like a hammer to the chest. Driven by darker tones and crushing riffs, the band’s evolution is undeniable—heavier where it hurts and catchier where it counts. There’s no buildup, just immediate impact: raw aggression fused with razor-sharp melody. Produced by Chris Clancy and mixed by Adam ‘Nolly’ Getgood, the track lands with precision and power. And this is only the beginning—’Iron Bite‘ marks the dawn of a new era, the first in a wave of hard-hitting, unforgettable tracks set to follow.”

  • Former Manowar Guitarist Ross The Boss Passes Away

    Ex-Manowar guitarist Ross “The Boss” Friedman has sadly passed away at the age of 72. This news comes after he was recently diagnosed with ALS.

    The Metal Hall Of Fame commented:

    “It is with deep sadness that we confirm the passing of legendary guitarist, our dear friend, Metal Hall of Fame Inductee, and Global Metal Ambassador Ross “The Boss” Friedman.

    Ross was a pioneering force in both punk and heavy metal, best known as a founding member of The Dictators and Manowar. His powerful playing, unmistakable tone, and uncompromising spirit helped shape generations of musicians and fans around the world.

    Earlier this year, Ross publicly shared his diagnosis with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), facing it with the same courage and honesty that defined his life and career.

    Ross’s impact on music is immeasurable. From the raw energy of early punk to the epic scale of heavy metal, his work left a lasting mark on the genre and on everyone who experienced it.

    Beyond his achievements on stage and in the studio, Ross was deeply respected by his peers and beloved by fans across continents. His legacy will live on through his music, his influence, and the countless lives he touched.

    We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, bandmates, and fans worldwide during this difficult time. Further details will be shared as they become available.”

    Manowar also shared condolences:

    “It is with great sadness that we have learned of the passing of Ross “The Boss” Friedman, following his recently announced ALS diagnosis. Music was Ross‘s life, and he left his mark across both heavy metal and punk rock. Our condolences go out to his family, friends, and fans everywhere. Rest in peace, Ross.”
