    Like his music, Ozzy’s style is second to none. The Cypress II Metal boot celebrates the illustrious career and the style of an icon. This moc-toe boot comes dressed in a premium grainy man-made leather with the iconic Ozzy Osbourne logo on the tongue, heal counter and lace lock. The second boot is inspired by the iconic 1983 album “Bark At The Moon”. The Lugz x Ozzy Bark At The Moon Drifter boot features modern style while giving a nod to a classic from Ozzy’s discography. A tough and rugged denim boot featuring the album artwork on the hangtag and insole.

    The cornerstone of Lugz’s collection celebrates an iconic moment in rock and roll more than four decades later! The Ozzy Bats Joints special edition of canvas sneaker pay tribute to the legend in typical fashion. A second canvas sneaker in the drop is inspired by Ozzy’s debut studio album, “Blizzard Of Ozz”, which celebrated its 45th anniversary in 2025. The Lugz x Ozzy Blizzard Of Ozz joints canvas sneaker gives nod to a classic from Ozzy’s discography.

    Limited-edition packaging was methodically planned from lace lock, custom insoles, hangtags, and packaging making this the perfect holiday gift for any fan.

    The Cypress II Metal Boot will retail for $90. The Bark At The Moon Drifter Boot will retail for $80. Both the Bats and Blizzard Of Ozz Joints canvas sneakers will retail for $60 retail.”

  • Former Arch Enemy Singer Alissa White-Gluz: “I Am Excited To Let My Solo Work Stand On Its Own”

    Alissa White-Gluz has thanked fans for their love and support following her departure from Arch Enemy and the launch of her solo project. The singer said the following:

    “Wow. I am blown away by the outpouring of love and support I have received over the past few days. Times of transition can be especially intense for the mind, body and heart. I don’t take any of this lightly. But, the overwhelmingly positive response to “The Room Where She Died” has given me so much renewed energy and clarity about who I am as an artist and why I love singing and creating music. I am proud of the body of work I have been building for decades. After so many years of honing my skills as a vocalist, song-writer and performer; absorbing and learning with every show, every album, every video and every meet & greet, I am excited to let my solo work stand on its own.”

  • Visions Of Atlantis Announce “Armada – An Orchestral Voyage” Album

    “Armada – An Orchestral Voyage” Track Listing:

    01. “To Those Who Choose To Fight”
    02. “The Land Of The Free”
    03. “Monsters”
    04. “Tonight I’m Alive”
    05. “Armada”
    06. “The Dead Of The Sea”
    07. “Ashes To The Sea”
    08. Hellfire”
    09. “Collide”
    10. “Magic Of The Night”
    11. “Underwater”
    12. “Where The Sky And Ocean Blend”

    The band commented:

    “It is with great pleasure that we announce the release of ‘Armada – An Orchestral Voyage,’ coming February 6th.

    Many of you longed for an orchestral version of ‘Armada’ — so we sailed further than ever to bring you the ultimate listening experience.
    This is an INSTRUMENTAL record where every lead part is performed by real flutes, whistles, violins, and even the ancient Duduk.

    With the extraordinary performances of Sandro Friedrich and Fabio Polo (Elvenking), the beautiful orchestrations by Lukas Knoebl, and additional percussions and guitars by Michele Guaitoli, Armada has evolved into the perfect soundtrack for your gaming nights, your books, and your daily adventures.

    Watch the visualizer of “Ashes to the Sea” on YouTube — you’ll immediately feel what this voyage is about.

    And to crown this release, we’re unveiling a limited, exclusive LP edition dedicated to role-playing, in collaboration with Wyrd Edizioni:

    Exclusive RPG Edition Includes:
    • Downloadable RPG manual for the game Aureus Aestus – Wyrd Edizioni, in English
    • 5x printed A5 cards featuring the VoA characters
    • Custom VoA d20 dice
    • Black velvet bag with VoA logo in gold

    Symphonic Metal is truly being taken to the next level”

    Singer Clémentine Delauney added:

    “We are delighted to present another immersive work with ‘Armada – An Orchestral Voyage’. This very first track, ‘Ashes To The Sea’, is very dear to me because of the original message it carries. In this version, the words fall silent, leaving space for emotions and vibrations to envelop the listener, who is then free to imagine and feel along with the strings and the beautiful orchestral arrangements.

    With this new instrumental record, we truly wanted to enhance the core of Visions Of Atlantis’ sound: symphonic music. When we released ‘A Pirate Symphony’, the feedback from our fans was enthusiastic. With ‘An Orchestral Voyage’, we didn’t limit ourselves to repeating a winning formula — we aimed to go even further and offer the epitome of a symphonic piece. Still rooted in an orchestral instrumental approach, all the lead melodies have been passionately and skillfully performed by real instruments such as violins, flutes, and even a duduk! This album turns our latest studio release ‘Armada’ into the most epic journey — the ultimate symphonic soundtrack to any adventure. To be enjoyed on its own, or alongside your favorite book, outdoor hikes, or game nights!”
