"1984 To Headless", the Fall 2026 North American Tour, W.A.S.P. returns Playing Live in the U.S. and Canada, paying tribute to their 1st Four Albums... Live!

Selected Hits from W.A.S.P.'s 1st Four Albums promise to create a True Rock 'N Roll Spectacle complete with a Live Stage Show bringing those Albums Alive for the 1st... and Only Time.

The 1st Five Years of Artist's Careers most always determine what their legacy will be if they go on to greatness, or be remembered as a footnote in music history.

W.A.S.P. cemented their place in the Rock History in those 1st Five Years with their iconic first album in 1984, followed the next year with "The Last Command", "Inside the Electric Circus" in 1987 and capped with the their Greatest yet, "The Headless Children" in 1989.

In their Fabled 44 year history W.A.S.P. have been pioneers of Shock Rock, Psycho Drama and Live Spectacles that are now Legendary in the World of Rock.

The Band will take the "1984 To Headless" Tour to Europe and the World in 2027.

“It's hard to express the genuine excitement I'm feeling in describing the "1984 To Headless" U.S. Tour. Playing those songs from those 1st Four Albums in a combined package like this is something we've never attempted before. In addition to the songs, the entire Stage Show will look like the Album Covers from those Records will Come Alive... right right before your eyes!

Complete with all the History and Bombastic Live Presentations that's made this Band one of the great Live Bands in the Theatrical Rock World. When elements of those Album Covers start to come alive, right on the stage before the people it's gonna be something they'll not soon forget!

I'm also equally thrilled to bring K. K.'s Priest and those iconic Hit's onboard for all the Fall 2026 U. S. Shows. Both Bands... together... on the same stage... on the same night... where do I get my ticket?

It's gonna make the "1984 To Headless" Tour one for The Rock Ages"!” — Blackie Lawless

Cyprus Melodic Death Metal band Ka'aper released their new single «Lament for Osiris» from the band's upcoming new album “When Gods Walked the Earth”. The release was recorded in the band's home studio and mixed/mastered by Max Barishnikov.

https://open.spotify.com/album/1Td6CUrOllDYJbozqaD18D

https://music.apple.com/ua/album/lament-for-osiris-single/1867329197

Formed in April 2024 on the southern shores of Cyprus, Ka'aper blends dark and melodic metal, drawing inspiration from ancient Egyptian mythology. With crushing riffs, atmospheric arrangements, and haunting melodies, their music takes listeners on a journey into the depths of antiquity. The band—Evgeny Pcheliakov (vocals), Timur Glushan (guitar), Igor Kurzin (bass), and Alexey Boychuk (drums)—delivers intense and evocative soundscapes. Their debut album is set for release in 2025. Embracing darkness, Ka'aper invites fans to scream, feel, and face their fears.

Norwegian Black Metal band Northern Krig released their new album "Worship Files For Anthropophagolagnia Predators". The album was recorded and mixed at "Icelandic Fire Records" by Jan Reichel. Mastered at "Totenklang Studios".

Check out the new album linked below:

https://open.spotify.com/album/2xgpINgoC2er2GGpicimBv

https://music.apple.com/us/album/worship-files-for-anthropophagolagnia-predators/1864875057

Northern Krig is a Norwegian black metal band formed in Oslo in 2021 by Morfran, Erik Lund, Mikkel Stein, and Jonar Gunnarson following the end of "Skyrsdag". After their 2022 demo EP "Myrk Blóðfórn", the lineup evolved to Morfran (vocals, guitar), Miasma (bass, guitar), and Maikon Q. (drums). With releases including a split and the debut album "Concept Of A Suicidal Journey", they deliver uncompromising raw aggression on Worship Files For Anthropophagolagnia Predators.

Heavy melodic go getters REVELRY has not one but four singles to their name, with a couple of others expected to be released later on, along with an EP out this year too! The band talks about these releases, they have some shows set, with other plans to reach as many people as possible with the likes of social media, playing, and much else.

1. Please tell us about the history of your band and its members.

The band originally started about 10 years ago by David Alexander (guitarist) and has gone through multiple versions and phases as most bands do when looking for their sound. Everything changed when Jeff Sage (guitarist/vocals) had joined and the connection between the two was instant. From that point on, we continued as a pop punk band, releasing a couple EPs and some singles with various lineup changes. Things were looking good until Covid-19 had taken over the world and ultimately dismantled the band. A couple years later however, Jeff and David had decided to continue on and look for new members to keep the dream alive. We had found Kailey Shepardson (vocals), Todd Encarnacion (drums) and Brian Kriz (bass), thus evolving the sound of the band. That transition marked our move away from pop punk, into a heavier sound mixed with pop and R&B influenced direction that better reflects who we are now.

2. What’s the origin of the band’s name?

The band's name originated from a lyric on a Neck Deep song called Can’t Kick Up the Roots.

3. Where is the band based out of and what is your music scene like there? Are there any local bands you could recommend?

We are a Southern California based band from the Los Angeles area. The music scene is fully alive and well, with countless amounts of bands, venues, and industry people. We would recommend checking out bands like Shadow Moses, Wear Away, and Air Gap.

4. How would you describe your style?

Our sound lives in the space between heavy and melodic. We like to blend gut punching guitar riffs and hard-hitting drums with pop and R&B influenced melodies, hooks, and rhythms. It’s aggressive but emotional, polished but still raw.

5. What have you released so far and what can someone expect from your works?

We have released 4 singles so far (Sweet Tooth feat. Kellin Quinn, Fragile, Love Me Now feat. Myke Terry, and Maneater).

6. Do you have any new music in the works?

Yes, we have a new single out now titled SIN and another single called Poltergeist that is set to be released in April. We also have a double feature EP that will be coming out later on in the year.

7. How about playing shows and touring, have anything planned out?

As of right now we have three shows booked in February and two more in April. We are constantly looking to book shows as well as possibly a mini/full tour in the near future.

8. What plans do you have for the future as a band?

Our plans are to reach as many new listeners as possible and play as many shows as possible. We all feel like we are living our dream being on stage and seeing the reaction of fans, new and old.

9. Where can we listen to your band and where can we buy your stuff?

We are on all music streaming platforms (Spotify, Apple Music, etc.) as well as a YouTube channel with our music videos. Everything can be found either on our website www.revelryofficial.com and on linktr.ee/revelryca.

10. What is it you’d like a listener to remember the most when hearing your music for the first time?

We want the listener to finish the song feeling hyped, emotional, and a little unhinged in the best way.

Check out the new single linked below:

https://silentcrycz.bandcamp.com/album/bludn-kruh

Silent Cry was formed in autumn 2024 in Prostějov, Czech Republic, reuniting longtime collaborators from the former band "Exces" after 25 years. The band quickly recorded its first track and video Insomnia at ZIKI Records with drummer Vojta Markovský. After lineup changes and renewed studio sessions, Silent Cry continued independently.

Fresh off her historic win at the 2026 GRAMMY Awards, singer-songwriter EJAE (KPop Demon Hunters) has released her new song “Time After Time,” via Universal Records. “Time After Time” is an infectious heartbreak anthem with lyrics that reflect on a relationship that still lingers, capturing the all-too-familiar cycle of thinking about a former lover long after the relationship has run its course.

"Time After Time" demonstrates EJAE's evolution as a solo pop artist, moving beyond her storied work in K-pop to showcase her distinctive voice and generational songwriting abilities. The track captures her signature ability to create melodies that resonate globally while maintaining authentic emotional depth. Speaking about writing the song, EJAE said “The melody of ‘Time After Time’ was stuck in my head for years, just like the person I wrote it about.”

The track arrives after EJAE made history at the 2026 GRAMMY Awards when her breakout global hit “Golden” from the film KPop Demon Hunters won Best Song Written for Visual Media, becoming the first K-pop song to ever win a GRAMMY. The song previously won a Golden Globe and Critics’ Choice Award, and is nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song.

“Time After Time” is now available to stream on all platforms HERE.

Austin, Texas-based blackened speed metal unit SADISTIC FORCE are proud to unleash their new music video for the title track of their recently released EP, 'Morbid Odyssey.' The new video, shot and edited by David Coloma, is premiering via Decibel Magazine.

On the video for "Morbid Odyssey," SADISTIC FORCE shares:

"We spent two plus weeks ripping blackened speed metal across the Midwest with Graveripper, and this video is what crawled out of that run. Each night, Steve from Graveripper stormed the stage with this life-size, eye-glowing, smoke-belching skull and spine bong prop, and the room instantly lost its mind. No buildup, no warning—just pure road madness. He was literally the dude on the cover of our recent EP come to life. Smoke ’em remains."
