Alongside the full-length collection's arrival, the band has premiered a striking new music video for the heavy-hitting title track, “Medusa,” which features a powerful guest vocal appearance from Lyric Noel.

Today marks the 56th birthday of Weezer's brilliant, eccentric, and fiercely creative mastermind, Rivers Cuomo. Born on June 13th, 1970, the celebrated singer, songwriter, and guitarist has spent more than three decades serving as the primary creative engine behind some of the most defining alternative and power-pop music in rock history. From the generation-defining hooks of 1994's Blue Album and the raw, introspective cult-classic architecture of 1996's Pinkerton, straight through to modern radio mainstays, Cuomo has continuously pushed the boundaries of traditional rock songwriting with a brilliant mixture of vulnerable lyricism, heavy guitar riffs, and indelible pop sensibilities.

Known just as much for his technological curiosity, vast catalog of unreleased demos, and unique fan interactions as he is for his massive hits like "Buddy Holly," "Say It Ain't So," and "Island in the Sun," Cuomo remains a vital and incredibly prolific force in the modern music landscape. As Weezer continues to pack out venues worldwide and surprise audiences with their relentless studio output, fans and musicians globally are raising a glass today to celebrate the lasting legacy and quirky genius of a true rock original.

The Darkness frontman Justin Hawkins has spoken out candidly regarding the growing prevalence of mobile devices at live shows, admitting that he finds it incredibly dull to perform when an audience is buried in their screens. Speaking on a new episode of his popular YouTube channel, Justin Hawkins Rides Again, the veteran vocalist addressed indie-pop star Phoebe Bridgers's recent announcement that her upcoming "The Lost Tour" will mandate a completely phone-free environment by utilizing locking Yondr pouches. Hawkins revealed that while he has seriously considered implementing a similar policy for his own band, the financial overhead and logistical hurdles have proven somewhat impractical for their current operations.

Reflecting on his own 30-year career on stage, Hawkins noted how drastically the live atmosphere has shifted from fans being entirely in the moment to viewing spectacles through a digital lens. He recalled a literal stage-diving disaster in Luxembourg where fans failed to catch him because they were too busy filming, and admitted he frequently stops the band's multi-platinum anthem, "I Believe in a Thing Called Love," when the energy suddenly dies. "All the phones come out, and so often I have to stop the song because it's, like, 'Fucking hell, where's the vibe gone?'" Hawkins explained. "Actually take part in the experience of it, connect with the band that you've paid that money to go and see... For me, it's boring to play to them."

The flamboyant rock icon isn't alone in his stance, as the active rock and metal communities have increasingly spearheaded the anti-phone movement. Heavy hitters like Tool enforce strict, zero-tolerance policies until their final song, while Iron Maiden actively requested fans pocket their devices on their newly launched "Run For Your Lives" world tour. Hawkins pointed directly to theatrical Swedish metal titans Ghost—who completely banned phones across their massive 2025 and 2026 tour cycles following the filming of their Rite Here Rite Now concert movie—as a primary example of how a phone-free room elevates the music. "I went to see Ghost, actually, and it is a really spectacular viewing experience," Hawkins prai…

A powerhouse collective of heavy music veterans have officially joined forces to launch a new outfit called With A Vengeance, sharing a blistering first teaser for their upcoming debut single, “Shared Light.” The group has locked in an official premiere date of July 17th for the track's accompanying music video, marking the first time the full piece will be heard. The project's origins are deeply rooted in a massive behind-the-scenes business maneuver; the band originally formed when frontman Tommy Vext and guitarist Chris Cain attempted to acquire the official legal rights to the Bad Wolves name to launch a full-scale relaunch of that band. However, after a reported seven-figure deal ultimately fell through, the duo shifted gears and chose to build an entirely new creative entity from the ground up.

To round out the sonic landscape of the new endeavor, Vext and Cain have assembled an elite, virtuoso-level backing lineup of familiar scene mainstays. The complete With A Vengeance roster features renowned progressive guitar wizard Angel Vivaldi, alongside groove-heavy bassist Xander Raymond Charles and powerhouse drummer Austin D’Amond—an accomplished percussionist recognized for his time behind the kit in Chimaira, Bleed The Sky, and Verona On Venus.

While specific details regarding a larger full-length studio record or future touring itineraries are still developing, the impending summer release of "Shared Light" marks a highly anticipated statement of intent from the veteran musicians. The quick teaser clip is currently streaming across the band's official channels, showcasing a glimpse of the heavy, melodic metal architecture that fans can expect when the full track and cinematic music video officially land in mid-July.

Alternative rock powerhouse Des Rocs—the moniker of New York artist Danny Rocco—has officially returned with his bruising, blistering, and cinematic new studio album, To Hell and Back. Serving as the highly anticipated follow-up to 2023’s acclaimed Dream Machine, the new 11-track collection marks a determined, fearless climb into the towering heights of classic hard rock maximalism. Driven by the explosive momentum of its lead single, “The Juice,” the full record is available now across all digital streaming platforms, with physical collectors able to secure various specialized vinyl and CD formats via the artist's webstore and Amazon.

To achieve the massive scale driving the project, Rocco purposefully pushed back against modern, over-polished studio production methods, opting instead to capture a raw, dangerous sonic landscape. “I wanted to make something that felt huge,” Rocco explained in an official press statement. “A sonic explosion that would hit like a freight train. But more than anything, I wanted to capture the natural energy of the band in a way that feels rare now. We recorded the entire album live in the heart of New York City. You can hear the room, the chaos, the humanity in it.”

The arrival of the new album serves as the perfect ammunition for the band's upcoming touring cycle. To properly bring the chaotic energy of To Hell and Back to the international stage, Des Rocs has locked in an extensive itinerary of headlining and festival tour dates across the UK and Europe, scheduled to launch this fall.

Nu-metal veterans Coal Chamber have officially postponed their upcoming performance at the Louder Than Life festival. The announcement comes directly from drummer Mikey “Bug” Cox, who shared a major, deeply positive update regarding his ongoing battle with cancer. Following months of intensive medical scans, tests, and appointments, Cox revealed that he has successfully passed his recent evaluations and received clearance from his medical team to move forward with what is hoped to be his final cancer surgery.

While expressing disappointment over missing the festival appearance, Cox emphasized that the medical milestone is the exact breakthrough his family has been fighting toward. Moving forward, his immediate priority will shift entirely toward the upcoming procedure, his physical recovery, and preparing to safely rejoin his bandmates on stage. In his public statement, Cox extended his immense gratitude to the music community and fans worldwide for the overwhelming wave of love, encouragement, and positive energy that has supported him throughout his health journey.

Black Veil Brides have officially unveiled the theatrical new music video for “Woe and Pain,” the latest single from their seventh studio album, VINDICATE. Directed to match the dark, dramatic energy of the track, the newly released performance clip finds frontman Andy Biersack and company delivering a characteristically high-impact performance surrounded by thick, rolling fog. The brooding cinematic visual is officially available to watch now on YouTube.

The track is a standout cut from VINDICATE, which officially dropped this past May. The new album marks the latest conceptual milestone in the band's career, also featuring the previously released hit rock singles “Bleeders” and the heavy-hitting title track. The record continues to push the band's trademark blend of soaring melodic choruses and aggressive, guitar-driven metalcore.

The new video arrives at a busy time for the band, who are currently trekking across Europe on a headlining summer tour. The current run has seen the group performing as a temporary four-piece without longtime drummer Christian “CC” Coma, who stepped away from the overseas dates due to personal reasons. However, the band has assured fans that the lineup will be back at full strength soon; CC is officially expected to return to his throne behind the kit when Black Veil Brides launch their highly anticipated North American headlining tour this coming August.

Mexican rock sister-trio The Warning have officially announced that their highly anticipated fourth studio album, Everything's Falling, will arrive in full on August 28th via Lava/Republic Records. Launched alongside a dedicated countdown website, the project marks a bold new creative era for the Monterrey-born band. To celebrate the announcement, the Villarreal sisters have dropped the album's powerful third single, "Ritual," which is available across all digital streaming platforms today.

Driven by haunting melodies, crushing instrumentation, and an unforgettable chorus, "Ritual" explores the fear of losing something good and the innate tendency to anticipate disaster even in moments of happiness. The band channels deep anxiety, obsession, and self-sabotage into what stands as one of their most vulnerable releases to date. "'Ritual' is about the fear of losing something good," the band shared. "Even when life is going well, anxiety can convince you that disaster is right around the corner. It's about getting trapped in those thoughts and letting them keep you from actually living in the moment."

The upcoming full-length serves as a definitive snapshot of personal and creative evolution for Daniela "Dany" (guitar, lead vocals), Paulina "Pau" (drums, vocals), and Alejandra "Ale" Villarreal (bass). Reflecting on the album's core themes, the trio added: "Everything's Falling is a snapshot of where we are in our lives right now. We've grown so much over the past few years, not just as musicians, but as people... At its core, it's about accepting that life can be messy and unpredictable. Things fall apart, plans change, and sometimes you lose your footing. But those moments can teach you the most about yourself." Following the explosive, heavy-hitting releases of "Kerosene" and "Ego" earlier this year, "Ritual" offers the most revealing and emotionally raw look yet at the new record.

The major album announcement lands amidst a massive global ascent for the band. Following a milestone run that earned them a Latin Grammy nomination for "Qué Más Quieres" off 2024's Keep Me Fed and culminated in sold-out shows for 30,000 fans in Mexico City, the sisters are spent mu…
