WAGE WAR -- Briton Bond [lead vocals], Cody Quistad [rhythm guitar, clean vocals], Seth Blake [lead guitar], Chris Gaylord [bass], and Stephen Kluesener [drums] — have entered their world domination era. Last month, the Florida band has announced its fifth album STIGMA, which arrives digitally on 21st June 2024 via Fearless Records, while the physical version will land in stores on September 6. Pre-order it here. Today, the band has shared "TOMBSTONE." Listen here The band has also dropped the visualiser. Watch it here or by clicking the image below. "Metal riffs meet country western tropes in our new track 'TOMBSTONE,'" the band explains. "A final showdown with an enemy. One fight. Two dogs unleashed."
From its ominous, tension-building opening seconds through the deadly breakdowns, Wage War go hard on "TOMBSTONE." It's got vocals that sound like screamer Briton Bond gargled with a razor blade cocktail, thick and groovy riffs that'’ll have you nodding your head, and battering ram percussion. "TOMBSTONE" finds Wage War, unleashing a hellacious anthem that brings the heavy artillery from start to stomp to finish.

The live version of the song is cut from their highly anticipated first official live DVD/BluRay, Live in Los Angeles, set to be released this Friday, May 17 via Napalm Records. Originally the track appeared on JINJER’s 2019 studio album, Macro. This meaningful song holds profound significance and perfectly embraces the sense of the new live album. In fact, filmed on December 22, 2022 at The Wiltern in Los Angeles, CA, USA, Live in Los Angeles not only honors their endurance through recent challenges, but also celebrates their triumphant 15-year journey. During these years, JINJER attained remarkable milestones, touring globally and captivating millions at prestigious festivals like Hellfest, Rock am Ring, Graspop Metal Meeting, Download Festival and Rocklahoma USA. Moreover, their latest triumph, the acclaimed studio album Wallflowers, broke charts worldwide, soaring to #1 on both the US Billboard Top New Artist Album charts and Canadian Hard Music album charts, #2 on the US Hard Music album charts, #5 on the official UK Rock & Metal album charts and #7 on the official German album charts. JINJER on “Home Back”: “Since it‘s original release back in 2019, ‘Home Back’ has become another anthem for JINJER and our followers. From its upbeat musical groove to its lyrics charged with pacifism and unfortunate predictions about the state of the world we find ourselves in today, we felt like this was no brainer to release as the third single for the Live In Los Angeles DVD!” Watch the Live Video for “Home Back” HERE: Live in Los Angeles was a spontaneous decision by the band, recorded as raw as possible, to emphasize the passion that can come from a live show. This release is an explosive mixture of JINJER’s discography - featuring fan favorites like “Sit Stay Roll Over”, “Call Me A Symbol” and the game changing “Pisces”. The live album contains 16 songs in various audio formats, with some strictly limited: the Deluxe Digipack features not only a DVD, but also two more songs, “Wallflower” & “Disclosure!”, recorded in Paris in 2023.

The song was co-produced by Grammy nominated Tyler Smyth (I Prevail, Falling in Reverse) and mixed by Zakk Cervini (Bring Me The Horizon, Blink 182). It finds the band further experimenting with and pushing the boundaries of their signature sound. Watch the video for single Ritual HERE or by clicking the image below. TDWP continue to smash boundaries and expectations. They are truly operating in the height of their career, having moved over 75,000 tickets on the Metalcore Dropouts tour, during which they've been playing material almost exclusively new material from 2022's Color Decay. Rather than focus on their deep (and much-loved) catalog, the band is leaving fans even hungrier for even more new songs.
Photo By: Jared Leibowitz YOU WON’T GO BEFORE YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO" OUT TODAY VIA PURE NOISE - LISTEN / SHARE On You Won’t Go Before You’re Supposed To, Kentucky’s Knocked Loose have honed in on a diverse, cohesive and savagely aggressive album that sums up the massive strides they’ve taken during their decade as a band, and asserts their boundless potential going forward. Internally, there was the need to challenge themselves as songwriters while retaining the merciless intensity and unflinching honesty that have always been their calling cards. Externally, there was a whole new set of eyes on the hard-touring Louisville quintet, following a banner year on the road, during which they’d brought their underground-seasoned sound to some of the world’s biggest stages.
You Won’t Go Before You’re Supposed To is filled with boundary-pushing textures and samples the band has collected over the years. “On this album, we go the fastest we've ever gone; we go the scariest we've ever gone. We also go the catchiest and the most melodic that we've ever gone, and that's the point,” guitarist Isaac Hale says. “Instead of branching off into a specific direction, we want to encompass ALL directions.” The new songs find them plumbing through new depths of loathing — directed both inward and outward. Across 10 tracks and 27 gripping minutes, You Won’t Go Before You’re Supposed To leans into Knocked Loose’s most extreme impulses, from blastbeat-driven fury, chaotic turbulence and seismic breakdowns, while seasoning the mix with ear-catching auxiliary percussion, evocative samples and shout-along hooks, all interwoven to perfection by Grammy-nominated, pop-savy producer Drew “WZRD BLD” Fulk. There’s no ceiling for hardcore in 2024 — even an outfit as uncompromising as Knocked Loose can turn up in mainstream-adjacent spaces and win over new fans (see 2023’s viral Coachella and Bonnaroo sets). But there’s a centre to what they do that will never change: uncompromising heaviness, both sonically and thematically. What is evolving is their drive to find new ways to convey that heaviness, and add tasteful variety that only highlights their undiminished ferocity. Everywhere Knocked Loose have been is here on this record — but so is everywhere they may yet go. Knocked Loose’s headlining North American tour is underway. The run hits both coasts with two sold out nights in New York City at Brooklyn Steel and Terminal 5, The Shrine in Los Angeles tomorrow and more. Show Me The Body, Loathe and Speed will support. Last week Knocked Loose announced they will be direct support on Slipknot’s Here Comes The Pain Tour which includes plays at Madison Square Garden, Los Angeles’ Intuit Dome (two nights) and other arenas nationwide. See below for a full list of dates. Tickets are available here. PURCHASE / LISTEN / SHARE Ska alternative rock group, Sublime with Rome, release their final album today. This self-titled album is a culmination of the last fifteen years for the fans as a final farewell honoring the legacy of Sublime.
The band’s frontman Rome Ramirez says, "Please enjoy the final Sublime with Rome album. I debated on whether to release it, but after heartfelt conversations with many of you, I’ve come to realize that the music deserves to be heard. Our fans, you, are at the core of everything we do. Over the past 15 years, we’ve built a beautiful community together, and this album is a testament to that bond. Last spring, we poured our hearts into the studio crafting songs that had been brewing for almost three years. It was a time of both struggle and revelation, filled with pain, love, and purpose. For me, it was clearly the beginning of the end, and finishing this album marks the end of an era—an emotional conclusion to my journey with Sublime. But I’m hopeful that through the music, you’ll find moments of peace and connection, as I did while creating it. Love always triumphs, and I hope this album brings a little more of it into your lives.” In support of the final album, the band is performing nationwide on The Farewell Tour. The touring members for this final leg consist of Rome Ramirez, Joe Tomino on drums, Brian Allen (Miranda Lambert, Zac Brown) on bass, and Gabrial McNair (No Doubt, Green Day) on trombone/keys.

PHOTO CREDIT: BEN PRINCE Fresh off making a special guest appearance in Lenny Kravitz’s latest music video and gearing up for his much-anticipated performance at Lollapalooza this summer, multi-hyphenate rising star Huddy unveils his latest dynamic alternative-rock anthem “21” available to stream now on all digital platforms via The Orchard. The track is the latest off Huddy’s upcoming EP, Love Bites, due out on his 22nd birthday on May 15th – LISTEN HERE // PRE-SAVE EP HERE. Driven by a signature pop-rock sound, featuring thrashing drums and roaring guitars, "21" delivers irresistible hooks and bold lyrics that beg to be tattooed or sent in late-night messages. The track, marking the second release of 2024 from Huddy’s forthcoming project, encapsulates the exhilarating leap from adolescence to adulthood.
“21 represents freedom and growth from everything I've gone through in my life,” shares Huddy. “It's about letting go of my teenage self and allowing myself to grow up both physically and lyrically. It's an anthem for anyone turning 21, but it's also a coming-of-age song, capturing the feeling of being sent off to college or experiencing the world for the first time. For me, it's about moving to Los Angeles and discovering who I am and how I see the world. This song embodies the thrill of falling in love on your own terms. At 21, you've got to be open to love finding you, while also being ready to embrace it. The production flows effortlessly, mirroring the excitement and ease I feel as I embrace both growing up and my love life. Letting go has allowed me to express myself freely, whereas before I locked up my emotions and all the words I actually felt." Born of Osiris have released their latest banger "Elevate" and the accompanying official music video (via Sumerian Records). Prior to today, the band has shared "Torchbearer" and most recently, "A Mind Short Circuiting" which have amassed over 1.1 million streams on Spotify and 273k views on YouTube. Speaking on today's release, Born of Osiris shared: "'Elevate' embodies the essence of our roots. The combination of ethereal melodies with down-tuned guitars has helped inspire lyrics that evoke darker emotions." Fans can see the band tearing up the stage on the Angels & Villains Tour co-headlining with Attila and with Traitors, Extortionist, and Not Enough Space as support.
