  • Watch DragonForce Play First Show With New Vocalist Alissa White-Gluz (Ex-Arch Enemy)

    Yesterday (May 9), DragonForce took the stage at the Welcome To Rockville festival in Daytona Beach, FL for their first live show with singer Alissa White-Gluz (Blue Medusa, ex-Arch Enemy). You can see some fan-filmed footage from that set below. Notably, co-vocalist Marc Hudson was absent from the show due to hearing issues. The band commented:

    “This hasn’t been a sudden decision, but something he has been managing behind the scenes for quite some time. After careful consideration, it’s become clear that taking a little break is the best move for his long-term health and recovery. We know many of you were looking forward to seeing him on stage again with Alissa, but don’t worry. We have new music with Marc and Alissa in the works. In the meantime, Billy [Wilkins, touring guitarist/vocalist] will be stepping in to handle the next two live performances. Thank you for all your love and support.”

  • Mastodon Finish New Album

    During a recent interview with Blabbermouth, Mastodon drummer/vocalist Brann Dailor offered an update on the band’s new album. According to him, the effort is “finished.” A 2026 release is expected.

    Dailor said the following:

    “We’re very excited about it. It was a hard record to make. It was a very emotional time for us. I lost my mom, we went through all this turmoil with Brent [Hinds], and then he passed away. It’s been tough. It’s all in the music, it’s all in the songs, and I’m excited to release it and get it out there into the world because we’ve been sitting on it for a while. A lot of this stuff, at least the skeletons of what this album is, we’ve been sitting on for two years now. A lot was going on.”

    He also confirmed that Brent Hinds will not appear on any of the new material:

    “No. It’s all new stuff. Toward the end, unfortunately, it was hard to get him to come down to the [practice] space. He was interested in doing other stuff, which was fine. It was a confusing time. [Laughs] I was the one going, ‘Come on, man. Come down. Let’s riff.’ He was a free spirit. He wanted to ride his motorcycle around and go do this and that.

    He was wherever the wind took him. Unfortunately, it was not down to the practice space to work on riffs. It was a little bit frustrating. I was okay with it. I was like, ‘Hey man, everyone can do whatever they want to do in their life. If you’re unhappy and not wanting to be here doing whatever, figure out what does make you happy and do that.’”

  • Listen To “The Temple Of The King” From “Ride The Rainbow – The Ultimate Tribute To Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow”

    Steve Morse, Phil Soussan, Ronnie Romero, Simon Wright, Jonathan Cain, and Kevin James Morse have shared their take on Rainbow’s “The Temple Of The King.” You can stream that below. The track is from the Rainbow tribute album, “Ride The Rainbow – The Ultimate Tribute To Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow,” which will be released on June 19.

    Romero commented:

    “Being part of the Rainbow legacy, and having the opportunity to play this song with Ritchie himself on stage, to record this song it means the world to me. I would never be grateful enough for the chance of being part of this legendary band, so here is a humble way to pay tribute to one of my favorite songs and my all-time favorite band. Hope the people like it the same way I loved it recording it.”

    Morse continued:

    “I remember playing an outdoor festival show featuring Rainbow, with my previous band, The Dregs. I stayed and watched Rainbow and thought that every single song sounded really good! Ritchie had always worked with very good musicians, but his vision of heavy, but melodic, rock really impressed me. I think hearing them sounding so well playing live, really helped to set the bar high for live performance.”

    Cain added:

    “When Cleopatra asked me to play on a Rainbow tribute project, I was excited to add my keyboards to it. Rainbow with Ronnie James Dio were one of the truly melodic and memorable metal bands. I got to party with him towards the end of his touring days after a Sweden Rock Festival. His soaring voice and melodies will be remembered for decades to come.”
