    Aside from seeing him on the road with us this past year, you can also find Flemming playing with his other bands The Arcane Order, Temple of Scorn and of course with Asinhell, and you may have heard him in his previous band, Autumn Leaves.

  • Foo Fighters To Release New Album “Your Favorite Toy” In April

    Foo Fighters will be releasing a new album, titled “Your Favorite Toy,” on April 24. The effort’s title track can be found below. Frontman Dave Grohl had the following to say about the new song:

    “‘Your Favorite Toy’ really was the key that unlocked the tone and energetic direction of the new album. We stumbled upon it after experimenting with different sounds and dynamics for over a year, and the day it took shape I knew that we had to follow its lead. It was the fuse to the powder keg of songs we wound up recording for this record. It feels new.”

    “Your Favorite Toy” Track Listing:

    01. “Caught In The Echo”
    02. “Of All People”
    03. “Window”
    04. “Your Favorite Toy”

    07. “Spit Shine”
    08. “Unconditional”
    09. “Child Actor”

    “Idols II” Track Listing:

    04. “Time”
    05. “War Part II”
    06. “Blueberry Hill”
    07. “Suburban Requiem”

    Yungblud commented:

    “This is it. The second chapter of the Idols story. Part 1 was a journey that helped me reclaim my identity from the darkest position Iā€™ve ever been in my life. Part 2 is about realising that I am alive, that I am real, that this journey that Iā€™ve been on didnā€™t kill me. Itā€™s about realising that you can feel invincible when you actually feel yourself. Itā€™s about comprehending that my heart is beating and that my lungs are filling up with air.ā€

  • Protest The Hero To Celebrate 20th Anniversary Of “Kezia” With Limited Vinyl Box Set

    Protest The Hero have announced a limited 20th anniversary vinyl box set edition of ā€œKezia.” Pre-orders can be found HERE and they are expected to begin shipping on February 27.

    Here’s the contents:

    • Hardcover Book w/ 3x LP Pockets in Front, CD + Blu-ray Pockets in Back
    • Sequential Stamped Red Foil Numbering adorns the back of each individual copy, making each one truly unique.
    • Matte Black Hard Covers Wrapped Around High-Gloss Red Foil Lamination
    • 3×180 gram 12″ Records
      2xLP for Original Master
      1xLP for “Kezia Live” on animated Firing Squad “Zoetrope” picture disc!
    • Full Colour 24-Page, Thread-Sewn Booklet w/ Lyrics and additional artwork.
    • Full Colour Premium Inner Sleeves Housing all three records while also sliding into custom turn-page LP pockets.
    • Original Masters CD lives in full colour wallet, which slides into Back Cover Inside Pocket
    • First-ever pressing Blu-ray disc of “Kezia Live” slides into its own Back Cover Inside Pocket as well.
    • Shrink-wrapped

    The band commented:

    ā€œItā€™s hard to believe, and honestly a little terrifying, that Kezia was released over twenty years ago.

    Working on it after school in our parentsā€™ basements for what felt like an eternity now feels like another lifetime. Itā€™s pretty wild what five little cheesedicks can create when they hunker down with a common goal. Sure, we took some breaks to organize and run a small fight-club operation where our friends would come and lay hands on us, but for the most part, we kept our heads down!

    Anyway, twenty years felt like a milestone worth commemorating. Following in the footsteps of the 20th Anniversary Edition of A Calculated Use of Sound, we wanted to create something truly collectible, and part of a ā€œsetā€. So we did!

    What youā€™re seeing here is a hardcover-housed 3xLP edition of Kezia. Discs AB and CD feature the original album, remastered for vinyl by our longtime friend JoĆ£o Carvalho. The third disc is a live recording of the album, captured during the 10th anniversary shows with the original lineup.

    For the first time ever, weā€™ve also created a zoetrope picture disc in collaboration with Animated Record Company, who were an absolute joy to work with. Inspired by the firing squad theme from the albumā€™s concept and the video for Blindfolds Aside, itā€™s a fitting and, we think, very cool addition to this deluxe set.

    Inside the hardcover youā€™ll find a 24-page booklet featuring lyrics, credits, and additional artwork by the inimitable Jeff Jordan, all designed and laid out by our friend and now live PTH drummer, Matt Kidby.

    Tucked into the back cover are the final collectible pieces: a newly designed CD featuring the original album audio, and a Blu-ray disc of the full Kezia 10-Year Anniversary performance.

    This pressing is limited to only 1,000 copies, and each is individually numbered in handsome red foil on the back of the book.

    When theyā€™re gone, thatā€™s it. We will never press it in this format again. So now is your chance to own a little piece of our history, and yours.ā€

    Footage of ā€œBlindfolds Asideā€œ from the ā€œKezia Liveā€ Blu-ray can be seen below:
