  • Trivium Premiere “Dead Inside Of Me” Music Video

    Trivium have premiered a new video for their new song “Dead Inside Of Me.” That track will appear on the band’s upcoming album.

    Bassist Paolo Gregoletto commented:

    “‘Dead Inside Of Me’ was a song that came together at the end of a long day of writing new music last summer. It started with a riff I’d had kicking around for five or six years called ‘Slam,’ looping over a simple groove.

    A lot of the most fun song ideas come from blending two contrasting ideas together. Take a death metal riff and play it like a stadium rock song. Let the screaming and singing weave together until they feel like one voice. Being able to explain the idea that simply as the song was coming together helped keep us laser-focused and on track to see the vision through to the end.

    The song was loosely inspired by the Japanese concept of honne and tatemae — the tension between your true inner feelings and the mask you present to the outside world to hide them.”

  • The Hellacopters Officially Part Ways With Guitarist Dregen

    The Hellacopters have officially parted ways with guitarist Andreas Tyrone “Dregen” Svensson. This news comes after he previously took a break from the band following a hand injury.

    The group commented:

    “As most of you know Dregen hasn’t been playing with us for roughly three years now, due to his hand injury. All of us have been hoping that he would fully recover and return to the band at some point, but the tremendously sad fact is that the damage to his fingers is permanent. While he can still play some rhythm guitar most of our songs are just not doable anymore.

    As a founding member of the band Dregen will always be a huge part of the family and he will continue to be with us in spirit. He has always had many cards up his sleeve and there is no doubt that he will pull out a few in the near future.

    LG Valeta, who has been filling in for him since the injury, will carry on with us going forward.

    The Hellacopters”

  • Grave Digger To Release New Album “Faces Of Pain” In January

    Grave Digger have announced a new album titled “Faces Of Pain.” The effort will be released on January 15, 2027 via Reaper Entertainment.

    Frontman Chris Boltendahl commented:

    “The time has finally come: With our new album ‘Faces Of Pain’, we are opening the next furious chapter. This record is filled with an incredible amount of heart, sweat and pure passion. How can the result best be described?

    What lies behind us was an extraordinary creative effort. In particular, my collaboration with Tobias Kersting on guitar has grown incredibly strong and developed into a deeply rooted creative partnership. His riffs, my lyrics and our shared vision unleashed an incredible dynamic. The result is a mature yet highly explosive late-career work that uncompromisingly combines all the classic trademarks our fans have loved for decades.

    ‘Faces Of Pain’ shows us at our most diverse in a long time. Grave Digger consistently follow their very own style — a style we have shaped ourselves over the years. The remarkable thing is that we never copy ourselves for a single second, yet every song and every note unmistakably carries the band’s typical, mighty sound. Get ready for a true metal monster!”

  • Ghøstkid Announce New Lineup, Share “I Destroyed You” Video

    Ghøstkid have announced their new lineup. Singer Sebastian “Sushi” Biesler (ex-Electric Callboy) will be joined by drummer David Friedrich (ex-Electric Callboy), guitarist Ian Duncan (Caliban), and bassist Axel One (ex-We Butter The Bread With Butter).

    Sushi commented:

    “David and I share a long musical history. We stood on stage together in Electric Callboy for almost 10 years, and I’m beyond happy that he decided to support me with Ghøstkid. This is only the beginning of a new chapter for both of us. I can’t wait to share the stage with him again — he’s someone I’ve always considered not only a close friend, but also an important part of my life.”

    “Iain and I have known each other for many years through his former band, We Butter the Bread with Butter, and now through Caliban. He has been a close friend for a long time and even took part in the songwriting process for the self-titled album. We have never actually played together in a band before, so this will be a new experience for both of us — and one we’re really looking forward to.”

    “Some of you probably know Axel as well from We Butter the Bread with Butter. He’s such a funny guy and has always been nothing but a lovely person, so I can’t wait to hit the road with him. Even though all of us have known each other for many years, playing together in the same band is going to be an interesting journey for all of us.”

    With this news, the band have also shared an official video for their new song “I Destroyed You.” That track is from their new album, “Follow The White Rabbit,” which will be released on October 2.
