  • Chad Gray (Mudvayne) Cancels San Diego And Santa Ana Shows

    Chad Gray (Mudvayne, HELLYEAH) has cancelled two California shows due to illness. This includes dates in San Diego and Santa Ana.

    Gray commented:

    “Metal Kids,

    If you saw the Aftershock show, you know I was having a tough one. I’ve been dealing with some deep vocal issues, and then that day I got sick and was completely on my ass.

    I’m already dealing with enough shit right now, and I need to take some time to rest so I can protect my voice, my health, and hopefully keep this tour going.

    I’m so incredibly sorry to my Metal family in San Diego and Santa Ana, but I’m going to have to cancel these shows. It absolutely breaks my heart. I don’t want to do this, but I truly believe it’s the better decision for all of you and for me.

    Hopefully, we can get back there soon and replay the shows the way they’re supposed to be played.

    If you have a meet and greet and want to go to the Las Vegas show on October 7th, we can transfer your M&G. Please email us and we will change your order.

    If you can not make the Vegas show, all meet and greets that were purchased will be reimbursed.

    Tickets to the Vegas date at Fremont Country Club are available.

    If you purchased through Ticketmaster, refunds will be issued automatically. If you purchased from a third party reseller, please reach out to your point of purchase.

    Thank You for understanding and sticking with me.

    Stay Metal

  • KnuckleBonz Partner With Exodus For 3D Immersive Experience

    KnuckleBonz have announced a new partnership with Exodus. The collaboration will feature a 3D immersive experience.

    Further details were shared in a press release:

    “KnuckleBonz® today announces an official collaboration with Exodus to bring the Bay Area thrash pioneers into KnuckleBonz360™ BackStage Experience, a first-of-its-kind immersive 3D digital platform launching October 2026.

    ‘I’ve seen a lot of strange things in 45 years of thrash, but walking around the 360 District next to a giant Goliath and a 3D version of myself is pretty cool. Fans are going to lose their minds when they check out this 3D world,’ says Gary Holt, guitarist of Exodus.

    KnuckleBonz360™ is a digital platform featuring immersive 3D worlds built to celebrate the iconic imagery of great bands and artists. With 20+ band worlds launching in 2026, KnuckleBonz360™ BackStage Experience gives fans a place to connect with other fans, play mini-games, shop for exclusive collectibles, explore and see album art come to life.

    ‘Exodus wrote the rulebook for Bay Area thrash, and more than four decades later the band still hits harder than anyone,’ says Tony Simerman, CEO and Creative Director of KnuckleBonz, Inc. He adds, ‘The first time our team watched Goliath stomp through the 360 District, the whole studio stopped working. Now fans get that same jolt, and they can stand face to face with Gary Holt in 3D.’

    The Exodus Experience in KnuckleBonz360 is developed by a team of incredibly talented artists, engineers and enthusiastic music superfans. The creators are also fans! Exodus fans worldwide can come together in KnuckleBonz360 to celebrate the band.

    Fans will enter the Exodus Experience and explore the world of the band that helped ignite the Bay Area thrash scene, from the pit-born violence of Bonded by Blood to the crushing weight of the band’s latest album, Goliath. Iconic Exodus album imagery comes to life across the experience, and Goliath himself occasionally roams the streets in the 360 District and towering over every fan in his path.

    Gary Holt joins the 360 District as a featured artist, rendered in 3D so fans can meet one of thrash metal’s most ferocious guitarists inside the platform.

    The Exodus Experience in KnuckleBonz360 will feature digital collectibles, physical collectibles including the KnuckleBonz Gary Holt statue, and merch that ships worldwide. This multi-player world allows Exodus fans to connect and explore together. The experience launches October 2026.”

  • Alice Cooper Guests On New Cody Jinks Song “Moving Mountains”

    Alice Cooper is featured on a new Cody Jinks song titled “Moving Mountains.” You can find a video for that track below:

    Jinks commented:

    “Who would have thought ‘Moving Mountains’ would turn into what it did? A simple concept for a song that turned into one of the coolest collaborations I’ll ever be a part of.”

    Cooper added:

    “Cody is an interesting guy. I really like him. He is a bit of an outlaw and outsider in my mind, but he’s first and foremost a really good songwriter. I kind of gravitated towards the idea of working together because we had these things in common. My character is also kind of an outlaw and definitely an outsider, but the music has always come first. We always make sure the songs are great. I’ve always thought it would be interesting to work with a country rock songwriter and Cody really fits in with that idea of quality accessible songwriting that still has a bit of an edge.”
