• Salem Trials Premiere “Left To Bleed” Video

    Salem Trials have premiered a new video for their new song “Left To Bleed.” This track is from the band’s new EP, “Heavy Is The Head,” which will be released on June 12.

    The group commented:

    “The first introduction to our new offering is via the first single/video, ‘Left to Bleed,’ which follows the EP’s general theme of abuse of power. Though it may not be a new concept that the world is led by wealthy class who shape it to suit their interests, this song’s focus mainly on those who live beneath that class. Forced to fight their wars and work until they die so that the rich may continue to hoard power, money and influence, all while using fear tactics, media manipulation and rhetoric to force the less connected to pick a side and turn on each other. When they are done with us, we are all left to bleed.

    Our new ‘Heavy Is The Head‘ EP feels like we’ve truly dialed in our sound as a band and turned the page. The writing process happened pretty naturally over just a few months. We’re a lot more focused on song structures and vocal dynamics and as a result we’ve written some of our heaviest and most cohesive songs to date. We really feel like we’re hitting our stride with these new songs and they hit harder than anything we’ve done. We really can’t wait for everyone to hear what we’ve been working on.”

  • New Idea Society Premiere New Song “Lantern”

    New Idea Society, the project featuring Stephen Brodsky (Cave In, etc.) and Mike Law (Wild Arrows, Euclid), have premiered a new song titled “Lantern.” This track is from their new album, “Fire On The Hill,” which will be released on May 15. Law commented:

    “[‘Lantern‘] evolved from one of the earliest demos for the album once we settled on a direction. The first few things I sent to Steve were a lot more visceral and raw than where we ended up. This one morphed into Steve’s lyrical vision and it was a cool and rare experience for me to sing someone else’s words.”

  • Lifesick Premiere “Die With Me” Music Video

    Lifesick have premiered a new video for their new song “Die With Me.” The band commented:

    “‘Die With Me” is about staring death in the face and not backing down. Pure aggression from start to finish, with the ‘Die With Me‘ chant pushing everything forward. It’s meant to feel overwhelming — like everything hitting at once.”

  • Raunchy Premiere “Designed Despair” Music Video

    Raunchy have premiered a new video for their latest single “Designed Despair.” You can check that out below. The track will appear on the band’s upcoming album “Prisoner.” The group commented:

    “‘Designed Despair’ sheds light on the arcane mechanisms of systemic oppression and the engineering of invisible borders that divide, confine, and silence. Voices rise from the margins only to vanish into a void built to ignore them, as redlined boundaries and hierarchical design trap those hidden in plain sight. Ultimately, this song reflects the reality of a system that creates roads to nowhere, where escape exists only through the narrow cracks of a broken foundation.”

    Williams shared more information regarding tickets:

    “I am hosting a verified presale registration in an effort to get tickets into the hands of real fans.

    Presale Registration Period:

    Thu, May 7th from 3pm EST – Sat, May 9th 3pm EST

    Presale Registration Link:

    hayleywilliams.club.os.fan/thws

    HW HQ Presale Period:

    Tue, May 12th from 10am local – Wed, May 13th 10pm local

    General On Sale Time:
    Thu, May 14th 10am local

    All registrants will be required to verify both their email address and phone number as a preventative measure against bots and scalpers.

    Only those registered and verified for the presale will receive a unique code to purchase tickets during the presale period.

    If you verified yourself for a previous Hayley Williams show, you still need to register for these shows, but will not have to go through the 2FA text verification step this time.

    How It Works:

    • Starting now, there will be a 48-hour presale registration period for the newly announced shows.
    • To sign up for the presale, you must register for a Ticket Unlock code at https://hayleywilliams.club.os.fan/thws
    • The above link will register you for the presale, and if you aren’t already subscribed, will add you to the HW HQ email and SMS list for future communications.
    • Please be patient as email and text verification messages may be delayed due to high volume.
    • The presale registration period will close at 3pm EST on Sat, May 9th.
    • After registering, you will receive an email by 5pm EST on Mon, May 11th with a Ticket Unlock code, giving you the opportunity to purchase presale tickets for the tour.
    • The presale starts at 10am local on Tue, May 12th and ends on Wed, May 13th at 10pm local.

    It’s important to note that receiving a code does not guarantee you will be able to buy tickets – they will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis. There is also no guarantee that tickets will be available outside of this presale, so registering is your best and potentially only chance at getting tickets.

    To further combat overpriced reselling, we are disabling ticket transfers where possible. However, due to local laws and venue restrictions, this is not possible for every show. Please consult your local venue.

    More Details:

    • The email address you register with must match the one used to purchase tickets.
    • Tickets will be limited to 4 (four) per person per show.
      Each successful registrant will receive 1 Ticket Unlock code.
    • Ticket Unlock codes are case sensitive.
    • Ticket Unlock codes will only work with authorized ticket sellers.

  • Craig Reynolds (Stray From The Path) Says His House In Nashville, TN Was Destroyed By A Storm Last Christmas

    Craig Reynolds (Stray From The Path) has taken to YouTube to share an update on his personal life. As it turns out, the drummer’s house in Nashville, TN was destroyed by a storm last Christmas.

    Reynolds said the following:

    “I had high hopes for the beginning of this year to be fully back to vlogging. Had a lot on. And then actually some of the most stressful things of my life happened and it’s pushed it back. But here we are, end of April, and I am officially back. What happened? Well, obviously I’m in Nashville — living in Nashville — that’s been stressful. I did a vlog on that.

    As of now, it’s less stressful. But what happened was I went back to see my parents in the UK at Christmas. While I was there, there was an ice storm in Nashville, and that basically took out my house. Completely took it out. [There was a] tree on it… I had 3 days left of the trip seeing my parents. Had to phone someone to come and rescue the cats. There was a tree in the roof. It was leaking and the landlord did nothing. Literally nothing until, well, they did nothing. They’ve still done nothing.

    So just been dealing with that and I haven’t really — although that’s good vlogging stuff — I haven’t really sort of wanted to pick up a camera and be like, ‘Hey guys, look how shit everything is.’ So, that happened. So, we had to move. And as of like last week, um, we’ve moved to a different place.

    As you can see, it’s a bit better. Uh, didn’t want to move and like get a place that was kind of nice, because expensive. Didn’t know how things were going to go. Got a slightly better place. Pretty cool. It’s more expensive, but we moved. I’m here for a good while, I think. So, it might as well live a little bit more comfortably. So, then that was that.”
