Hasbro's My Little Pony Equestria Girls sequel flick Rainbow Rocks due this September on the 27th for a limited run release across 300+ theater locations has revealed some sneak peaks of the rocking musical anticipation. Check the teaser clip and a new song HERE.

On the tail of a wildly successful run of MY LITTLE PONY EQUESTRIA GIRLS the movie in 2013, Screenvision has teamed up with Hasbro Studios and Shout! Factory to bring the full-length feature MY LITTLE PONY EQUESTRIA GIRLS: RAINBOW ROCKS to more than 300 cinemas across the U.S. and Canada beginning September 27. Information on listings and links to book tickets can be found at mlpeg.com.

MY LITTLE PONY EQUESTRIA GIRLS: RAINBOW ROCKS the movie finds Canterlot High (CHS) hosting a musical showcase, and Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Fluttershy are going to be performing with their new band, The Rainbooms. But when The Dazzlings, a new girl group, arrive at CHS and convince everyone to turn the friendly showcase into a Battle of the Bands, tensions mount between the competing musical acts. A now-reformed Sunset Shimmer realizes that the Dazzlings may not be ordinary girls and are after something far more sinister than just being named Best Band at Canterlot High. The Rainbooms call on Princess Twilight to restore harmony to their world to help them perform a musical counter-spell so that they can win a battle that now determines the fate of the entire school!

“Screenvision and Shout Factory have been wonderful partners and we're looking forward to once again working with them to bring MY LITTLE PONY EQUESTRIA GIRLS fans the next installment of the beloved franchise,” said Stephen Davis, president, Hasbro Studios and Global Entertainment & Licensing. “We’re thrilled for audiences to see the spectacular MY LITTLE PONY EQUESTRIA GIRLS: RAINBOW ROCKS musical numbers performed by their favorite MY LITTLE PONY characters on the big screen coming this Fall.”

“We had great success with MY LITTLE PONY EQUESTRIA GIRLS the movie last year, and are excited to continue this partnership with Shout! Factory and Hasbro, strengthening our offering of children’s programming for our exhibitor partners,” said Darryl Schaffer, Executive Vice President, Operations and Exhibitor Relations, Screenvision.

“We are very excited to partner with Hasbro Studios and Screenvision in bringing this next chapter of MY LITTLE PONY EQUESTRIA GIRLS to fans. My Little Pony is an internationally beloved brand and this great family movie is a perfect fit for theatres,” said Garson Foos, President of Shout! Factory.

In celebration of an astounding thirty-year career, SEPULTURA -- who stands among Brazil's most successful bands ever -- will unleash a new live offering entitled Sepultura And Les Tambours du Bronx: Metal Veins - Alive At Rock In Rio.

In a spectacular performance that finds SEPULTURA accompanied throughout by the French industrial percussion group Les Tambours du Bronx, notorious for beating 225-liter barrels with beech wood bats or even axe handles, the show was recorded from the band's main stage appearance at the legendary Rock In Rio gala in 2013. Featuring SEPULTURA's most revered tunes including "Refuse/Resist," "Territory" and "Roots Bloody Roots," which sees the audience chanting the entire cut from beginning to end, the sheer volume of sound, percussive enormity and powerful presentation sets this release apart from any previous SEPULTURA concert offering to date.

With a one-hour run time divided into thirteen cuts, the album also features a cover of Prodigy's "Firestarter," the fan-chanted "Sepulnation," and music from the band's Kairos full-length. Metal Veins - Alive At Rock In Rio will come available on CD, DVD and for the first time in the band's history, Blu-Ray via a partnership with Rock In Rio, MZA Music and Eagle Rock Entertainment. In addition, the DVD includes an exclusive documentary of behind-the-scenes preparation with interviews, rehearsal and sound-check footage and clips of the band just seconds before they hit the stage.

I came to them with my vision for the album and it has been a real labor of love, but something I am so proud of. 'Chasing The Sun' is just a peek into my new album. I've worked very hard and the album is a great representation of the experiences I've had in my life and where I want to go from here!"

 After taking a long break from the music industry, Hilary is currently in the studio finishing up her highly anticipated RCA Records debut , which will be her 5th studio album and is due out this fall.

 "I took a break from music for quite awhile, but it gave me the power to choose my next steps carefully and I'm really proud of the album I've made. 'Chasing The Sun' is a light and fun summer song that I hope helps people to feel a little more carefree,' states Duff.

 "We are thrilled to welcome Hilary Duff to the RCA Records family," says Peter Edge, Chairman & CEO, RCA Records. "She is a supremely talented young woman, who after achieving massive success at a young age, continues to be an extraordinarily creative, relevant and cutting edge performer with a enduring appeal."

 Hilary gained fame in the Disney Channel's top-rated series "Lizzie McGuire" in 2001. Shortly after, Duff starred in numerous feature films including "The Lizzie McGuire Movie,'" "Agent Cody Banks," "A Cinderella Story," "Cheaper by the Dozen," and more serious roles such as, co-starring in John Cusack's critically acclaimed 2008 film "War, Inc." and "According to Greta," in which Hilary plays the title character and co-stars with Oscar winner Ellyn Burstyn.  Coming up, Hilary is set to grace the silver screen once again in her role as twenty-something Kelsey in TV Land's newest original series "Younger," starring alongside Tony Award winner Sutton Foster, Debi Mazar and Miriam Shor.

Her first album "Metamorphosis," reached #1 on the Billboard 200, selling four million copies.

Overall, Hilary has sold more than 15 million records worldwide. She has won two platinum awards and her concerts are routinely sold out across the country as she attracts a large and loyal fan base. In 2014, Duff signed with RCA Records and is currently finalizing her fifth studio album. The highly anticipated and buzzed about album is slated for a fall release and marks her first original material since 2007.  Among her many accolades, Duff was honored with two separate Teen Choice Awards and was also named by Teen People as one of the magazine's "25 Hottest Stars Under 25."

Her charity work includes the founding of Blessings in a Back Pack which helps inner city schoolchildren get the nutrition they need. She's also involved with Make-A-Wish Foundation.

Famined Records is excited to announce their newest signing, Ceiling Of Anvers from Turin, Italy. Along with the signing announcement, this four piece metal outfit has released a brand new single, titled “L.I.F.E.” off their upcoming debut EP “We All Live In Balance” which drops on August 26th.

Stream the new single, “L.I.F.E.” HERE.

"Ceiling Of Anvers is a project born in late 2012 as a metal/hardcore band with Djent influences. In 2013 COA released their first single "The Oracle" recorded, mixed and mastered by Andrea Fusini at Fusix Studio.

A year later, in the same studio, they recorded their first EP, titled "We All Live In Balance." The EP consists of five tracks, which suffer the strong influence of the two main composers; Emanuele and Simone, who come from two different compositional tastes, but they can compensate each other, giving rise to this mix of metal/ hardcore with low tunings and sick breakdowns with Djent influences.

The EP talks about the continuous agonizing search of the man, as a natural person, of a physical location between earth and subconscious. Fearing the authority and the control searching the reason to overcome the artificial lights which imprison the senses and emotional states.”

TRACKLISTING:

1. The Throne And The Temple (Feat Giovanni from My Aim To Farewell)
2. Order Control
3. The Oracle
4. Circles (instrumental)
5. L.I.F.E. (Feat Nicolò from Damned Spring Fragrantia)

G.R.L.'s debut self-titled EP brings forth what was once here before, back in the 90's the Spice Girls along with the rest of the pop mania took force. Now it's crept it's way back into our mists with the likes of Justin Bieber, Fifth Harmony, Miley Cyrus, and now these gals are strutting their stuff. But it just so happens that these girls have got something to show for it, "Ugly Heart", "Girls Are Always Right", and "Don't Talk About Love", are the pick of the latter that indicates their attitude and musical adjustment to their catchy up beat style. Their melodies and vocal chords all stay in synch with one another, while keeping the music bouncing along to the groove of the musical tune. These girls have got the edge that the Spice Girls once had, except it's more upbeat and edgy and a tad raw keep these girls fresh with each listen. G.R.L. are surly to be a successor to the previous acts before them, making their mark upon the pop scene inch by inch.

If you have not yet had the pleasure, allow us to make an introduction to Pompeya, the Russian indie pop outfit, who released their new EP Night via Brooklyn label No Shame earlier this summer.

The Night EP follows the singles "Satellite," "Night," and "Does," which were released in Spring 2014.

The new EP was preceded by the release of the band's debut album Tropical, which dropped in October 2013, as well as Tropical Remixed, released in January 2014, which featured Fred Falke's standout remix of "90" along with other notables including Jimmy Edgar, Psychemagik, and Felix da Housecat.

With roots firmly established overseas, including extensive touring and TV appearances, Pompeya are broadening their reach to the U.S. and beyond with their distinct blend of '70s disco, '80s New Wave and '90s indie rock.

 Since releasing Tropical, they have received praise across influential outlets including SPIN, XLR8R, Thump (VICE), Under the Radar, MTV Hive, Interview, Earmilk, Gotta Dance Dirty, Dancing Astronaut and DUMMY.  

Pompeya have only just begun to lay the foundation and they are one of the most exciting international exports of 2014 -- look out for a new music coming this fall and a new full-length is likely to drop in 2015.

This Fall just got a whole lot better, because two of the most exciting and compelling forces on the music scene today are headed out on the road together, and Rockstar Energy Drink will present all dates.   Sharing the stage for the first time since their completely sold out "Collide With The Sky" 2012 tour, Sleeping with Sirens and Pierce the Veil announce a five-month, multi-leg, co-headline world tour - "The World Tour."  With PTV and SWS alternating the closing spot on the bill, the tour will kick off with an 19+ date U.S. trek, launching November 5 at Woodward Park Rotary Amphitheater in Fresno, CA.  Beartooth and This Wild Life will support on all of the Fall dates.

Said PTV's Vic Fuentes, "Our fans inspired us to create this tour, so that makes it extra special, and very meaningful for us.  Doing a world tour is something that not a lot of bands get to do in a lifetime, so we plan on making these shows the best we've ever done.  We can't wait to see you all there!"

"It's been awhile since either Sleeping with Sirens or Pierce The Veil have toured, and I think it's truly special to travel the world together," said SWS's Kellin Quinn.  "So to do a tour this long that hits so many countries?  What more could you ask for?  It'll be insane, so don't miss out!"

Check out this special video message HERE from SWS's Kellin Quin and PTV's Vic Fuentes.  VIP Packages and limited pre-sale tickets are available now at www.theworldtour.info.  Tickets go on sale to the public Saturday, July 26 at 10AM local time.
