Reigning in hell, screaming like a storm, MIDNIGHT's obscenely intense aural display of lust, filth, and sleaze ripped the Los Angeles faithful a new one at two sold-out shows on May 28th-29th, 2026. As part of MIDNIGHT's Satanic Royalty 15th Anniversary World Tour, the incendiary gigs at Hollywood venue Knucklehead were recorded in all their sweaty, filthy glory, resulting in Satanic Attack Live!, set for release on November 6th via Metal Blade Records.
Recorded by Mark Borders with mixing/mastering done by Zach Rippy, Satanic Attack Live! captures ten tracks off 2011's landmark Satanic Royalty LP - live and in the original album running order - plus five additional songs, including "Shock Til Blood," "T.A.P.," and "Fucking Speed And Darkness."
"Did I ever think there would be a MIDNIGHT live, in concert record album? Haha shit, naw!," says the band's aural architect, Athenar. "But if you're reading this, you are probably holding a copy in your bloody semen/leukorrhea-dripping paws. With the help of D.K. Vagslay, Iron Possessor, and about 300 dirt merchants and headbanging Hollywood sleazeballs, it was possible to concoct such a document of disgust."

Young Medicine announced they have officially signed a new multi-album deal with FiXT, marking a new chapter for the genre-mixing band and their relationship with the label.
The partnership kicks off with the re-release of "Immolator," a high-energy collision of hard rock, metalcore, and alternative metal that pairs retro-inspired synthesizers with heavy guitars, rapid-fire rhythms, and a passionate vocal performance that erupts into explosive screams. With its combination of nostalgic electronics and modern heaviness, “Immolator” finds Young Medicine pushing their signature fusion of sound into even more aggressive territory while setting the stage for a new era of releases with FiXT.
Rising synthwave rockers Young Medicine pull the best from diverse genres to build a carefully constructed music identity that defies simple categorization. Thumping double-bass beats and crunchy guitar riffs hammer out hard-hitting rhythms while chorus lines partner with sparkling retro synth tones for a stunning mix of audio ideas. If synthwave and metal got together and started a boy band, the result might sound something like Young Medicine, who have put themselves on the map as pioneers for a new era by bringing rockstar swagger to the retrowave movement.
"Immolator" is out now on all platforms from FiXT.

Vampires Everywhere! have released a new single of the song called "Dead In The Mourning Alive At Night (feat. Alesana)". Check it HERE.

Today SLIPKNOT unleash “Arsenal”, the first new song from the band in over three years. The anthemic release arrives with a music video directed by M Shawn Crahan - (clown), and stars Jackson White.
The culture of Slipknot has spread much farther than anyone could have predicted when nine guys from Iowa put on masks and uniforms, and began challenging the globe to keep up. The band’s influence can now be seen and felt in the underground, in those artists headlining rock and pop festivals across the world, and virtually everywhere in between. Across genres and subgenres, artists the world over are following in the footsteps that lead out of the US Midwest, and onto stages around the world. And all without an ounce of compromise, to anyone.
“Arsenal” deploys nearly every weapon Slipknot owns: pummeling dynamics, razor sharp vocals and lyrics, knifing keyboards, and riffs that can only be measured in tons. “I fought a f*cking god and the god lost,” frontman Corey Taylor proclaims, ripping his way across the track with a self-aware braggadocio, melding metal, punk and hip hop verses while summoning his roar from the seventh circle of hell. He’s serious when he throws off the weight of trend-chasing and spits, “I know I’m a hack and a has-been, but motherf*cker I’m a .45 and not a Mach 10,” but he’s also playing around; ditto when he screeches the song to a halt, shouting at his bandmates and bulldozing the wall of sound they’ve been building. There’s a focused, compressed brutality to this song that displays the firepower they’ve honed over their career.

Japanese superstars MAN WITH A MISSION have released their brand new single ‘ONE’. It’s a wild electrifying track which explodes with twists as MAN WITH A MISSION tease their exciting new era for 2026.
Opening with a powerful techno stomp and commanding chant of “One Wish, One Glory, One Soul”, MAN WITH A MISSION embark on their epic new chapter with the frenzied song. It blends the feverish rap and riffs of Jean-Ken Johnny throughout the propulsive rhythm from bassist Kamikaze Boy and drummer Spear Rib, alongside the soaring vocals from Tokyo Tanaka, all leading to a nuclear crescendo including hyperspace scratching from DJ Santa Monica.
The song has also been created to become the anthem for Japanese football team Cerezo Osaka. “Kamikaze Boy is a huge football fan and I am too,” explains Jean-Ken Johnny. “Cerezo Osaka weren’t doing that well during the season before we wrote the song, so they wanted to make a new song to encourage them. We wanted to make a song that was easy to chant together, not just the players but the supporters too, to create a positive vibe and enthusiasm to fight for victory.”
MAN WITH A MISSION are no strangers to high profile sport collaborations, and have previously delivered the soundtracks for the Japanese Rugby Team, the X Games and more. Their profound effect on Japanese culture and beyond throughout their career has also seeped into the sounds and visuals of numerous films, TV shows, anime series, video games and more.
‘ONE’ is the first in a series of new releases to come from MAN WITH A MISSION this year. It follows extensive worldwide touring from the Japanese rock phenomenon over the past 12 months which has taken them throughout Asia, the Americas, the UK and Europe. The band continue their tour performing at a number of major festivals in Japan this summer with additional headline dates in Japan announced for December.

Indian Technical Death Metal band Nihilus released their new single "Absurd Patterns" from the band's upcoming album "Borealis" that will be released in October 2026. The video was filmed in "Drummachari Studios", and edited by Aashank Pereira.
Check out the single linked below:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpUQY-V-ufw
Formed in Bangalore, India, in 2009 by Siddharth Manoharan and Manu Manjunath, Nihilus is a technical death metal act combining intricate musicianship with crushing intensity. Exploring themes of post-apocalyptic decay, modern geopolitics, and humanity's destructive nature, the band established their complex sound on the 2016 EP "Without Grey Matter". Their defining milestone comes with the concept album «Borealis», a dystopian narrative depicting Earth's gradual collapse through standalone stories bound by an overarching vision of catastrophic ruin.
German Modern Metal band ANGA released their new single "Demons". The song was recorded at three studios run by members of the band: Thomas Höflein’s studio, SFR Recordings by guitarist Marvin Schäfer, and Helios Studio by drummer Gabriel Illert. The song was mixed and mastered by guitarist Thomas Höflein.

Hailing from Stuttgart and Aschaffenburg, Germany, ANGA is a modern metal act combining heavy riffs, driving breakdowns, and electronic elements with soaring vocal melodies and dark metalcore intensity. Fronted by vocalist Anne Zeides alongside guitarists Thomas Höflein and Marvin Schäfer, bassist Fabian Streich, and drummer Gabriel Illert, the band has steadily evolved toward a darker, heavier sound since their 2021 debut album "Shadows" and the "Straight to Hell" EP. Their single "Demons" encapsulates their current era: modern, heavy, and fearlessly genre-defying.

You might be quick to think the band is "back" with the explosive "Your Name in Red Ink" — but then again, have they ever really gone away? No, they haven't, at least not in the hearts and minds of the disciple-like fanbase that may have grown up but retains a burning hot passion for the band and its music.
While FFTL's lineup and activity levels have shifted over the years, they prove they are here to stay with the definitive and dynamic "Your Name in Red Ink," featuring new singer Lil Lotus, who certainly knows his way around a microphone, having performed in both scene and hip-hop acts in his career. Clattering, tinny riffs, melodic bluster, and volcanic breakdowns abound throughout this dangerously raw track. This is no nostalgia play; this is your new millenium favorite band coming back with a vengerance unrivaled. Look (and listen) a little more closely and you'll see that the red ink your name is written in may very well be blood...
"We are excited to drop our first song off the EP and announce we are working with Fearless," states singer Lil Lotus. "'Your Name in Red Ink' is a good blend of all the different stuff I love about FFTL — plus new and old screamo/emo. I am really excited to see how everyone receives it."
Just after the turn of the century, band co-founders Travis Richter and Matt Good connected through the local Florida scene. Seeing beyond the boundaries of the zeitgeist's pervasive pop-punk movement at the time, the musicians rallied around a shared vision for what post-hardcore could be without sonic or emotional guardrails. The group turned heads with the Aesthetic EP in 2003 and landed their first proper deal. Long before it was commonplace, they hit the internet hard and built a presence on social media. Searching for a guitarist, Matt linked up with Sonny Moore on MySpace, flew him out for an audition, and the collective welcomed him as a vocalist.
This seminal lineup quietly left an indelible imprint on alternative music and culture with Dear Diary, My Teen Angst Has a Bodycount [2004] and Heroine [2006]. Throughout the ensuing years, they toured with everyone from Fall Out Boy and The All-American Rejects to Pierce The Veil, Hawthorne Heights, and Every Time I Die, performed on late-night television, and landed high-profile syncs in Madden, FIFA, and Need For Speed. They leapt headlong into another decade, tapping Periphery frontman Spencer Sotelo and fellow innovator as vocalist for 2015's Dead Trees. Coming full circle, Sonny lent his voice to the 2017 fan favorite "Make War," and Kellin Quinn of Sleeping with Sirens handled vocal duties for Mirror Soul in 2025. Now, From First To Last are joined by Lil Lotus on the microphone, the band picks up where it left off.

Exploding out of Japan's heavy music underground with a sound that seamlessly collides idol-style vocals, blistering metalcore precision and unrelenting extreme metal intensity, BROKEN BY THE SCREAM continues their rapid ascent with the release of their new single, "花鏑 [HANAKABURA]."
The track marks their first offering for Metal Blade Records. Featuring the dynamic four-vocalist lineup of Tsubaki Nanaougi, Shizuku Mikogami, Yayoi Takayashiki, and Io Nozukidaira, "花鏑[HANAKABURA]"captures the band's signature contrast of soaring melodies, vicious screams, and punishing metallic aggression while pushing their sound to even greater heights.
The band found inspiration for the track after their signing to Metal Blade, which they viewed as a new beginning for the group. "Everyone in BROKEN BY THE SCREAM is truly excited and honored to release music through Metal Blade Records," the band comments. "In ancient Japan, there was a special type of arrow called a 'Kaburaya' which was traditionally used to signal the beginning of a battle. The title 'HANAKABURA' is our own original word, inspired by the image of a Kaburaya arrow cutting through falling cherry blossom petals. We feel it is the perfect song to mark the beginning of our own battle and a new chapter for the band."

Channeling the raw spirit of the UK underground with tracks like "So Now the Killing Starts," Victormonica is renowned for disciplined, controlled-chaos live performances that don't simply perform metal - they weaponize it.

Through singles like "Flesh Disguise" and "Sealed Shell of Existence", Lugubre Cenacle explores existence, perception, and human complexity. Substituting pure aggression for haunting melodies and evolving structures, the music crafts an immersive conceptual journey heading toward a full-length album.

https://open.spotify.com/album/24sK3JpidmPAXvjSxRu38y
Bridging the ancient fjords of Norway and the neon landscapes of Japan, MorteMutta is a "Fjordmetal" project formed in 1999. Founded by members DC (Norway) and JJ (Japan), the duo crafts a cinematic universe combining Nordic and Japanese folklore, multilingual vocals, and unconventional instrumentation like the koto and roaring chainsaws. MorteMutta focuses on world-building and mythological storytelling over standalone songs. An infamous, defining moment in their history was the complete destruction of their early album masters by JJ.

Formed in Redford, Michigan, in April 2024 by guitarist Darrell Young, Orgasmic Savage expanded a year later into a full lineup driven by sheer passion. The band delivers a dark, gritty, horror-infused, and nasty sonic experience that completely lives up to its name. Their raw creative process is heavily fueled by substance use, famously culminating in their latest single, "Prelude To Assimilation".
