Both Diablo and Berserk explore themes of good versus evil against a backdrop of terrifying darkness, making this crossover a perfect match for fans.

MAMMOTH RETURNS WITH INCENDIARY NEW SINGLE "THE END"
“I’ve had the tapping idea on the intro for ‘The End’ since before Mammoth.
I was able to fit it into this world. It’s still over-the-top and shreddy, but it’s also melodic and controlled.
Overall, I was doing some different things on the record, and I knew this was going to be a big step.
Once we finished ‘The End,’ it felt really special to me,” explains Wolfgang Van Halen.
To coincide with the single release, Wolfgang and Mammoth have released a music video for “The End”
that is one for the history books and something rarely seen in music videos anymore.
Wolfgang teamed up with legendary director Robert Rodriguez to do a modern-day interpretation of Rodriguez’s 1996 hit film, From Dusk Till Dawn. The video tells the story of a rock band that is booked to play a show at a dive bar and given an ominous warning from the club owner portrayed by Danny Trejo. Mammoth decides they know better, and things quickly turn dire for the band before a surprising revelation during the final moments tie the complete video lore from the band together. Friends of Mammoth including Slash, Myles Kennedy and Wolfgang’s mother Valerie Bertinelli all show up throughout the short film. Horror effects icon Greg Nicotero offered his talents to the video to create zombies, werewolves and vampires that all bring a deadly end to the attendees of the show.
GHOST DEBUT MUSIC VIDEO FOR "PEACEFIELD"
Ghost, have released the official music video for “Peacefield”, the new single and opening track of the
band’s just released album, Skeletá.
Ghost’s sixth psalm, Skeletá, is its most unflinchingly introspective work to date. Where previous Ghost albums dealt largely with chronicling and/or observing outward facing subject matter such as Impera’s meditations on the rise
and fall of empires and its predecessor Prequelle’s evocations of the ravages of era-defining plagues Skeletá’s
lyrics render the distinct individual emotional vistas of each of its 10 songs in one-on-one fashion, at times as if in a dialogue with oneself in a mirror. The end result is a singular collection of timeless, universal sentiments, all filtered through a prism of a uniquely personal point of view.
HALESTORM RELEVEAL NEW SINGLE "DARKNESS ALWAYS WINS"
Halestorm, have unveiled “Darkness Always Wins”, a slow-building, cinematic rock anthem that marks the band’s
first release of 2025. The song, produced by Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Brandi Carlile, Jason Isbell)
is the first to be revealed from a new album.
“‘Darkness Always Wins’ is not a song of hope, nor is it a song of despair,” says Halestorm frontwoman Lzzy Hale.
“It is reality. History repeating. Evil prevails and the good depart first. But we are not doomed as long as we persist and keep our fires burning. The war may not be won in this lifetime. But our mission is to pass the torch
so that those who follow have a light to fight with.”
SABATON RELEASE NEW SINGLE "TEMPLARS"
“’Templars’ is the first song we wrote for our forthcoming album and it truly brings out the theatrical side of Sabaton,” says bassist Pär Sundström. “From the moment we started working on it, we were overflowing with ideas on how to bring it to life on stage. We didn’t just want to play it—we wanted to show it!”
The video for “Templars” presents a fictionalized depiction of a possible last stand for the Knights Templar.
The band members take on the roles of the last remaining Templars, sworn to protect the secrets of their order.
The story unfolds as the Templars intercept a letter warning them of their impending arrest for heresy. Soon after, an enemy army arrives on their doorstep demanding their surrender on behalf of King Philip IV of France. Refusing to yield, the Templars choose to fight to the bitter end. One by one, they fall in battle until only a single warrior remains. In a final, desperate clash, he defeats the enemy commander before retreating to the keep. There, he makes the ultimate sacrifice, setting fire to the stronghold to ensure the secrets of the order are lost to history.
