Northlane have released a stunning new single 'Afterimage' featuring Ian Kenny of Karnivool. A nod to their 'Node'-era, Northlane have always pointed to Karnivool as one of their biggest influences; Ian Kenny’s vocals sit so naturally in 'Afterimage' that the song feels written just for him.
Bruce Dickinson has released his epic seventh solo record The Mandrake Project. The legendary voice of Iron Maiden explores new sonic territory across the ten tracks, dishing up everything from the classic metal onslaught of The Afterglow of Ragnarok to the country-metal of Rain on the Graves to the sprawling ten-minute epic Sonata (Immortal Beloved).
Linkin Park have shared the previously unreleased track 'Friendly Fire'. Recorded during the 2017 sessions for their seventh album 'One More Light', it features a powerhouse vocal performance from the late Chester Bennington. The track is lifted from the band's first-ever career-spanning greatest hits album 'Papercuts (Singles Collection 2000-2023)' due for release on April 12 via Warner Records.
On the eve of his Australian tour, goth-rock icon Ville Valo (HIM/VV) has a chat with Maniacs. Ville opens up about his new album 'Neon Noir' and the enduring legacy of HIM, offers his reflections on living life as a 'goth sex symbol', calls out generic vocalists and provides a more wholesome and darkly humorous explanation for all those church burnings in Norway.
Kentucky metalcore/hardcore force Knocked Loose have announced that their new album, You Won’t Go Before You’re Supposed To will be out on May 10 via Pure Noise Records. The announcement of You Won’t Go Before You’re Supposed To arrives accompanied by the lead single Blinding Faith and its Kevin Lombardo-directed video. Blinding Faith skillfully wields whiplash tempo changes in service of a scathing indictment of religious groupthink, and the hypocrisy that can sometimes accompany an outwardly pious life.
