FEUERSCHWANZ AND LORD OF THE LOST JOIN FORCES FOR
"LORDS OF FYRE"
Two of Germany’s most energetic bands, Feuerschwanz and Lord Of The Lost, are joining forces at the pinnacle
of their careers for the Lords Of Fyre Tour 2025.
This explosive encounter of fire, darkness, and boundless joy of performance brings together medieval folk-metal heroes Feuerschwanz and genre-fluid dark metallers Lord Of The Lost for an unforgettable tour.
Both bands have not only conquered the top of the German Album Charts in recent years, but they are also united by their love of music and a longtime friendship off stage.
EPICA LAUNCH MUSIC VIDEO FOR NEW SINGLE "ARCANA"
Hidden wisdom, long-lost secrets, and esoteric knowledge. With "Arcana", the frontrunners of symphonic metal,
Epica, herald a new chapter in their two-decade-long band history.
This is the band's first new release since their chart-topping album Omega and their collaboration EP
The Alchemy Project. It offers a glimpse into the band's future music, coming in 2025.
"'Arcana' guides you through the universal stages of spiritual evolution in life. It leads the way to a higher consciousness and spiritual self-awareness," the band comments. "Writing this song was a spontaneous effort, so it came together quickly, which felt so natural that it wrote itself. The music contains classic Epica elements but has some vibes that might remind you of '80s alternative rock or modern metal."
The song has already made its live debut at the band's monumental "Symphonic Synergy" shows in Amsterdam,
and fans in Latin America will now have the chance to hear it live at the two shows that Epica will perform exclusively with a full orchestra and choir.
DELAIN RELEASE "THE REAPING" NEW SINGLE
Synth-metal masters create a stir with a brand new song, “The Reaping”, cut from the new offering accompanied
by an electrifying official music video.
The gripping track offers a whirlwind of emotions; articulating foreboding and sorrow through hooky electronic melodies and modern heaviness. Its collective themes express disillusionment with society's current path toward imminent
and inescapable consequences.
Keyboardist, founder, and main songwriter Martijn Westerholt says,
“’The Reaping’ is a very expressive song with a serious subject - where the world/society is heading and metaphorical storms on the horizon. Musically the song can be recognized as a typical Delain song filled with heavy guitars, but also with the very recognizable 80's synth elements Delain is known for."
MAJESTICA TO RELEASE POWER TRAIN ALBUM IN FEBRUARY
Symphonic power metal quartet, Majestica, have announced their brand new studio album, Power Train, which will see the light of day on February 7. After more than four years since their last album, the Swedes are ready to set the bar high once again with their new long player and are presenting their fans what is their strongest album to date.
Power Train is a spellbinding experience that awakens sleeping dreams with powerful riffs and epic choruses.
The enchantment rises like a breath of stars, propelling listeners into the heart of a fairytale world. This is particularly evident in the album's first single. With the title track "Power Train", Majestica leaves an exciting first impression and also presents a strong music video.
Tommy Johansson comments:
"Get ready for explosive power metal with a ”can’t stop singing along”-chorus in the new track 'Power Train'. The video literally takes you onboard the Power Train with elements taken from the entire album."
INFECTED RAIN SHARE VIDEO FOR "PAURA"

TREMONTI UNVEILS VIDEO FOR NEW SONG "ONE MORE TIME"
With less than three months until the release of their sixth studio album, The End Will Show Us How,
Tremonti is back with another track for fans. “One More Time” is a driving track backed by Mark’s dark and brooding lyrics as he sings about the madness in the world brought upon so many differing opinions. Backed by Eric Friedman (guitars), Tanner Keegan (bass) and Ryan Bennett (drums), world-renowned guitarist/vocalist/songwriter
Mark Tremonti delivers one of the most-memorable songs in the Tremonti catalog.
Mark Tremonti explains about the song: “It started with the pre-chorus and chorus idea. When I came up with the opening riff, it really solidified the song. Now, it’s one of the heaviest tracks on the record. It’s going to be one of those songs that translates well live. Thematically, it’s based on all of the madness in the world. There’s so much hatred and violence going on as well as so many polarizing ideologies. That led me to those lyrics."
THE NIGHT FLIGHT ORCHESTRA RELEASE NEW SINGLE AND MUSIC VIDEO "SHOOTING VELVET"

The Night Flight Orchestra comments: “Here’s the first taste of the new TNFO universe that is Give Us The Moon.
Let yourself be mesmerized by the pulsating foundation and grandiose chorus of this glittery effort.
This song is about keeping the highs, fighting the lows and never skipping a beat. We shall be watching you from the moon as you lace your shiny shoes. Enjoy ‘Shooting Velvet’!”
SERJ TANKIAN RELEASES NEW SINGLE "LIFE'S REVENGEFUL SON"
The song is the fifth single and video off Serj Tankian’s five-song EP of new music titled Foundations.
“Life’s Revengeful Son” incorporates a variety of instrumentation, including acoustic and electric guitars and dramatic orchestration, into an epic closer with unmatched imagery: “The final revolution will occur when the arms of the clock fall,” Tankian sings. “Jesus seen in the streets, dragging a car axel instead of the cross.”
JINJER TO RELEASE NEW ALBUM "DUEL" IN FEBRUARY
+ NEW SINGLE "KAFKA"
Jinjer, have announced their powerful, long-awaited fifth studio album, Duél, set to be released on February 7.
After releasing their single and video “Someone's Daughter”, followed by the heavy-hitting single “Rogue” earlier this year, Jinjer now unleash another untamed beast with their new track “Kafka”.
Dominated by Tatiana’s remarkably clear vocals, “Kafka” is a heavy and slow tamper, digging deep under one's skin
just to break right through with venomous growls in the end.
Tatiana Shmayluk on “Kafka”: “Being an artist is sometimes beautiful but most of the time it’s brutal… as our art is dissected word for word and ripped apart note by note, we‘re expected to be on point all-the-time …
and when we aren’t, we are scandalized. A true artist is vulnerable but the crowd is most often plagued with vultures who pick at every single move you make. It’s a slippery slope when music means the world to us but how quickly praise turns into prosecution… We are all Kings and Queens for a day but most of the time it feels like a Kafka novel for a lifetime. It‘s exciting but surreal and absurd at the same time …”
LINKIN PARK RELEASE NEW SINGLE "OVER EACH OTHER"
Mike Shinoda, Brad Delson, Dave “Phoenix” Farrell, Joe Hahn, Emily Armstrong and Colin Brittain continue their triumphant return with the release of a new single from their forthcoming album, From Zero.
With From Zero, the band is looking to harness the purest energy of their past, present, and future.
The new era has officially begun.
THE RASMUS RELEASE NEW SINGLE "REST IN PIECES"
Founder, frontman, and lead singer-songwriter Lauri Ylönen shares: “This all started very organically, the story behind the music is that I was betrayed by a friend. I was sad and pissed off at the same time. I wanted to channel my frustration into the music and create what I call a ‘f*ck you song’ for revenge.”
“That’s usually the best thing for any artist or creator to do in that situation,” he continues. “You take the emotion and turn it into something powerful. There’s an impulse that comes through and you find the strength to capture it in the form of music to make art. It might seem negative at first, but I wanted this song to also feel empowering to anyone who hears it. There’s that uplifting thing that we do. I would say ‘Rest In Pieces’ is very positive amongst all the intensity.”
