  • August Burns Red Announce New Album “Season Of Surrender”, Share New Song “The Nameless”

    August Burns Red will be releasing a new album, titled “Season Of Surrender,” on June 5. With this news, the band have also shared a lyric video for their new song “The Nameless.”

    Vocalist Jake Luhrs commented on the album:

    “This album is rooted in traditional August Burns Red and I think it’s the heaviest album we’ve written in a long time.”

    He also discussed the single:

    “Lyrically, ‘The Nameless’ is a song about not wasting your life away for the sake of acceptance and comfortability. Sometimes it takes detaching from what you’ve been told, or from the beliefs you are no longer aligned with, in order to face your own weaknesses. In doing so you can break free to live a life you are proud of.”

    Bassist Dustin Davidson added:

    “‘The Nameless’ is a hard-hitting, heavy bruiser that doesn’t let up for one moment. It combines classic ABR elements with dark moody technical rhythms, and fast paced vocals to keep the intensity up for the full three minutes of the track. To me it showcases our roots of where we’ve come from, and the future path of where we’re heading.”

    “Season Of Surrender” track listing:

    01. “Legions” (feat. Mike Hranica)
    02. “The Nameless“
    03. “Behemoth“
    04. “Den Of Thieves“
    05. “Sonic Salvation” (feat. Jamie Hails)
    06. “Cerebral Malfunction” (feat. Make Them Suffer)
    07. “Tear Of The Clouds“
    08. “Whispers Like Splinters“
    09. “S.O.S.“
    10. “New Horizons“
    11. “Forged by Failure“

  • Paleface Swiss Part Ways With Drummer Cassiano “Cassi” Toma

    Paleface Swiss have parted ways with drummer Cassiano “Cassi” Toma. The decision was “made together, with care, honesty, and love on all sides.”

    Toma commented:

    “Hey everyone, Cassi here.

    I want to share something personal with you all. I’ve made the decision to step down from the drum throne. And before anything gets lost in noise or speculation, please know this: this was a decision made together, with care, honesty, and love on all sides.

    There’s no falling out, no bitterness. Only deep respect and a bond that will never fade. What we’ve built together means more to me than I can put into words. These years have been some of the most beautiful, intense, and unforgettable moments of my life. I will always be proud to have been part of this family, this dream.

    But sometimes love also means being honest about your limits. Lately, it’s all become a little too heavy for me to carry the way I want to. I’m still navigating my mental health, and I’ve had to face the difficult truth that right now, I can’t be the drummer this band deserves, or the person I want to be for myself.

    That realization hurts. For all of us. But it also comes from a place of wanting the best for me, and for the band. We all want each other to grow, to thrive, and to shine as brightly as possible.

    Tonight will be my last show behind the kit. And tomorrow, we’ll still be together, celebrating life, celebrating my birthday, celebrating everything we’ve shared.

    So let’s hold onto the memories with warmth, even if they come with a little ache. Let’s allow both joy and sadness to exist at the same time. And let’s trust that this isn’t just an ending, but also the beginning of something new for all of us.

    Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to everyone who’s been part of this journey.

    All love, always ❤️”

  • New Found Glory’s Chad Gilbert Recovering From Brain Surgery

    New Found Glory’s Chad Gilbert has revealed that he is recovering from brain surgery. He underwent the operation to remove three tumors.

    Gilbert said the following:

    “On February 20th, I played a show in Nashville and was struggling to control the movements of my left hand. My left leg was getting weaker by the day and I started stumbling and falling at times.

    On the 23rd I was taken to the ER where a CT scan showed 3 new tumors had appeared in my brain. On 2/27 I had successful brain surgery and have been recovering in the hospital since. I regained function of my left hand immediately 🙏🏻

    My radiation oncologist described it like this: “this is not a fatal blow and not the end of your story, just the beginning of a new chapter.” My recovery has been bumpy at times but I’m feeling much better now and getting stronger by the day.

    Thankful to everyone who’s checked in on me and helped my family during this lengthy and challenging journey. Can’t use my phone much yet and have a lot of messages to catch up on. More stories to come when my brain is working well again.

    Love you all and am looking forward to sharing more music and fun with you as we come out of this ❤️”

  • The 69 Eyes Share Music Video For Their Cover Of Thin Lizzy’s “Cold Sweat”

    The 69 Eyes have shared a new video for their cover of Thin Lizzy’s “Cold Sweat.” This track is from the band’s new EP, “I Survive,” which will be released on June 5. Frontman Jyrki 69 commented:

    “A friend of mine sent me our demo of ‘Cold Sweat’ from over ten years ago and asked why we never released it. After hearing the demo, Gabi Hakanen, head of Vallila Music House, said, ‘This is exactly The 69 Eyes at their best. Rock for the radio!’ Every respectable rock band also covers Thin Lizzy at some point, so now that is done as well.”

  • Four-Fifths Of King Diamond’s Late ’80s Lineup Announce New Project Lex Legion

    Four-fifths of King Diamond’s late ’80s lineup, Mikkey Dee, Andy La Rocque, Pete Blakk, and Hal Patino, have announced a new project called Lex Legion. The band, which also features Nils K. Rue, will be releasing their debut album in June via MNRK Music Group. The effort’s first single, “Sleep Eternally,” will be released on March 31.

    La Rocque commented:

    “There’s elements of everything on the album. The right tempo and the right kind of vocals, both starting out like a fist in your face! This is totally unique. No one is writing this kind of music and there’s a big hole for us to fill. The album is a journey and every song is like the beat of a movie. I want listeners to travel back. The song style is different (to King Diamond) but still from the same era. The riffs are different and the arrangements are a little less progressive and a little more straightforward.”

    Dee added:

    “Lex Legion is totally written the way we thought in the ’80s..We wrote what we wanted, and if you liked it, that was a great bonus. If you didn’t like it, that was fine with us, too! Enjoy it or fuck off!”

    The album will include the following tracks:

    01. “Sleep Eternally”
    02. “Gypsy Tears”
    03. “When The Stars Align”
    04. “(I Am) The Resurrected”
    05. “Lost Inside”
    06. “Darkness”
    07. “Saviours”
    08. “Life Eternal”
    09. “Far Away”

  • Don Broco Share Music Video For “True Believers” Featuring Sam Carter (Architects)

    Don Broco have premiered a new video for their new song “True Believers.” The track, which features Architects frontman Sam Carter, is from the band’s new album, “Nightmare Tripping,” which will be released tomorrow (March 27).

    Don Broco’s Rob Damiani commented:

    “We started writing this song back in 2024 during the Southport Riots. At the same time the Olympics were on, and flicking between them and the news was an alarming contrast between celebratory British patriotism and violent English nationalism. Over the last few years it’s been impossible to avoid the rise of the far-right across Europe and the United States, seeing politicians and people on the streets alike using the Nazi salute freely without consequence, and genocide apologist’s ideas embraced in the mainstream media. This song is about the brainwashing that’s led to this, to question what we’ve been brought up believing and the narratives that have been reinforced for generations.

    As soon as the initial ideas were fleshed out I wanted Sam on this track. We’ve been fans of Architects for a long time and the energy and aggression he brings to his vocals are unmatched. As a human being of planet earth he’s used his talents again and again to stand up for what’s right so to collaborate on this song with him was very special.”

  • Legal Dispute Breaks Out Over The Estate Of The Late Shifty Shellshock (Crazy Town)

    According to TMZ, a legal dispute has broke out over the estate of the late Seth “Shifty Shellshock” Binzer (Crazy Town). The situation has been a complicated one due to the singer’s lack of will.

    Shifty‘s ex and the mother of his 17-year-old son Gage, Tracy Shelor was seeking to become the administrator of the estate in May 2025. Around that time, it was estimated to be worth $140,000.

    However, in July 2025, Shifty‘s older son Halo Binzer tried to gain control of the estate and the estimate was closer to $90,500. Shelor protested Halo‘s bid and accused him of “squandering” his father’s royalties and hiding “personal effects.”

    For his part, Halo denied those allegations and claimed his father’s estate had “no tangible personal effects of any value.” He also said Shifty “had a severe substance abuse problem and sold anything of value to support his lifestyle.”

    As if that wasn’t enough, Jasmine Lennard, the mother of Shifty’s son Phoenix, also took legal action after taking issue with Shelor. The two previously had problems in the past.

    Notably, Shelor has since disputed Halo‘s valuation of the estate. According to her, an unreleased album, two potential documentaries, and other potential contracts were not accounted for.
