  • Anberlin Premiere New Song “Gravity”

    Anberlin have premiered a new song titled “Gravity.” This track is from the band’s new album, “Currency,” which will be released on November 11. Vocalist Matty Mullins said the following about the single:

    “’Gravity’ is about coming to terms with the fact that our time here is limited and choosing to live in a way that leaves nothing unsaid and nothing undone. It wrestles with the weight of mortality, but ultimately finds peace in letting go of fear and embracing the people, moments, and purpose that matter most.”

  • Ignea Recruit Combichrist For New Song “Prefab”

    Ignea have premiered a new video for their new song “Prefab.” The track, which features Combichrist, is from the band’s new album, “Monumental,” which will be released on October 23.

    Vocalist Helle Bohdanova commented:

    “‘Prefab‘ reflects on the darker side of nostalgia — prefabricated socialist buildings, originally meant to give everyone a roof over their heads. But like many socialist ideals, the concept was flawed at its core: Uniform, industrial, stripping people of individuality and personal choice, making them feel like ants inside their own homes. Remnants of this architecture still stand across Europe — from Ukraine and Poland, from Germany to France — and while people may recall personal memories of them, that nostalgia is often bittersweet at best, rooted in poverty and authoritarian regime.

    As Ukrainians from a post-Soviet country, we grew up surrounded by the physical remains of a system that promised a bright future and delivered the opposite. What’s stranger is that even knowing how flawed it was, many people still feel a pull toward certain parts of Soviet life. And it’s not just us — plenty of Westerners romanticize Soviet aesthetics too, nostalgic for a past they never lived.

    In the ‘Prefab‘ video, we wanted to convey the feeling of a confined, uniform space, a cramped room representing a typical Soviet apartment, where only the tenants ever change.

    When we shaped the demo around ‘Prefab,’ we were basically hearing Andy‘s vocals in the back of our minds, and we’re so glad he agreed to lend his voice. Having Combichrist as part of the industrial metal banger on our upcoming album — what could be more iconic?

    Tune into this ‘cementery for serial dreams’ and try not to headbang!”

  • Rise Against And Alkaline Trio Cover Each Other’s Songs

    Rise Against and Alkaline Trio have released a new split EP. The effort features Rise Against’s cover of Alkaline Trio’s “Private Eye” and Alkaline Trio’s cover of Rise Against’s “Re-Education (Through Labor).” 7 inch vinyl pressings can be pre-ordered HERE.

    Alkaline Trio’s Matt Skiba commented:

    “It’s so much fun and such an honor to be swapping cover tunes with a band we’ve known personally and loved since we both formed and came up from our shows at the Fireside Bowl in Chicago. To see Rise Against become the band they are today has been a blast to track and to be a small part of through the years. To reconnect with this band and these people once again the way are via tour and this release feels the way it did when we first started: it’s almost completely for the love of each other and each other’s band. It feels like a tradition we started decades ago that naturally comes back to us, we are grateful to say.”

    Rise Against’s Tim McIlrath added:

    “The connection between Alkaline Trio and Rise Against actually pre-dates both bands’ inceptions, so we’ve all been there for both the awkward first steps and the flashes of promise. We have an understanding and appreciation of each other’s bands that could only come from being from the same scene. To still be standing this many years later is a testament to the fertile Chicago musical soil we come from and are proud to represent. We had so much fun sinking our teeth into their legendary song ‘Private Eye.’”

    The film documents a landmark moment in music history: Ozzy Osbourne’s historic final farewell performance for his fans in his Birmingham hometown – captured just 17 days before his untimely passing. The sold out Back To The Beginning show at Birmingham’s Villa Park stadium on July 5 last year not only included a solo set from Ozzy, but a reunion of Black Sabbath’s original members performing together for the first time in more than 20 years.

    OZZY & BLACK SABBATH: BACK TO THE BEGINNING celebrates two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Grammy®-winning singer and songwriter Ozzy and Grammy-winning, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees Black Sabbath’s enduring legacy, featuring the iconic group’s triumphant final show, personal reflections from the superstar musicians they inspired, and a behind the scenes look at the day itself.

    “Back to the Beginning came about because I asked Ozzy what would really make him happy,” says SHARON OSBOURNE, Ozzy Osbourne’s wife and manager who oversaw the legendary event. “And he said the only thing that would make him happy was if he could perform again and say goodbye to his fans. That’s all he wanted to do. He wanted to say goodbye and thank you.”

    The event—which sold out in minutes—brought together generations of fans alongside some of the most influential names in rock to celebrate Black Sabbath’s legacy. The show was hosted by Jason Momoa with Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine guitarist) serving as Musical Director for Back to the Beginning. The night included sets from Alice in Chains, Anthrax, Gojira, Guns N Roses, Halestorm, Lamb of God, Mastodon, Metallica, Pantera, Rival Sons, Slayer, and Tool, along with All-Star segments with special guests Adam Wakeman, Andrew Watt, Billy Corgan, Chad Smith, David Draiman, David Ellefson, Jake E. Lee, KK Downing, Mike Bordin, Nuno Bettencourt, Papa V Perpetua (Ghost), Ronnie Wood, Rudy Sarzo, Sammy Hagar, Sleep Token‘s II, Steven Tyler, Travis Barker, Vernon Reid, Whitfield Crane, and Yungblud.

    Ozzy’s Black Sabbath band members noted of the event:

    “It was a closure for the band and it was a good way to go out, I think.”

    —TONY IOMMI, Black Sabbath

    “To me it was like pure love. It was just a wave of love. It’s the only way I can describe it really. I mean I could feel it as if it is like tangible.”

    —GEEZER BUTLER, Black Sabbath

    “Felt completely at home in a place where I belong. It almost felt like I was in a dream.“

    —BILL WARD, Black Sabbath

    “There’s never been anything like that that’s happened in the history of rock and roll,” says TOM MORELLO, Rage Against the Machine guitarist and Musical Director of Back to the Beginning. “There’s never been a precedent for a show like this…[Black Sabbath] gets to play their final show basically in the Ground Zero of where they created heavy metal.”

    The film has been directed for screen by Ben Wainwright-Pearce (Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, George Michael: The Faith Tour), with the live concert directed by Tim van Someren, and produced by Jim Parsons, Jamie Silk, and Dan Seliger. It has been crafted specifically for cinematic presentation, designed to immerse audiences in both the scale of the stadium production and the intimacy of the final performance.

    Presented in Dolby Atmos and 5.1 surround sound, the film has been engineered to deliver a fully immersive audio-visual experience, bringing audiences into the heart of the performance with unprecedented clarity and power.

    The release continues Mercury Studios’ commitment to premium music storytelling, following critically acclaimed and globally distributed productions including ONE TO ONE: JOHN & YOKO, AMERICAN SYMPHONY, REGGAETON: THE SOUND THAT CONQUERED THE WORLD, and METALLICA SAVED MY LIFE.

    Mercury Studios co-leads, Ken Danquah and Andrea Dunn, said in a joint statement:

    “Ozzy Osbourne is one of the most influential figures in music history, and his final performance with Black Sabbath deserves to be seen on the biggest possible stage. Last year, we brought this legendary concert to fans across the globe, offering millions the chance to be there through an unprecedented livestream. This film is the next chapter, giving fans a new way to experience that night on the big screen. Back To The Beginning captures the scale of a stadium performance and the intimacy of a farewell, crafted specifically for the cinema screen.”

    “Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath’s Back to the Beginning concert was a landmark cultural moment”, says Marc Allenby, CEO of Trafalgar Releasing. “Bringing it to cinemas worldwide is an opportunity to further cement Ozzy’s legacy and impact. We are really looking forward to giving fans around the world a chance to experience this final celebration of Ozzy and Black Sabbath together on the big screen.”’
