The Mighty Mighty Bosstones announce new album

March 7, 2021

Ska-punk pioneers The Mighty Mighty BossToneS will release their 11th studio album ‘When God Was Great’ on May 7th via Hellcat Records. Co-produced by Ted Hutt (The Gaslight Anthem, Dropkick Murphys) and Rancid frontman Tim Armstrong (Transplants, Jimmy Cliff) ‘When God Was Great’ is the peak of their extensive career. The band brings friends, tour colleagues and band members from the past back for a sonic celebration, which emphasizes the power of perseverance and human connection in turbulent times. The album has 15 tracks that initially rose from a collective feeling of loss. The band states: “Before this madness, we simply wrote songs without any time plan in our heads. Suddenly the world changed and important events in a very long career that we looked forward to, like for example play with the Madness at the Greek Theatre, were taken from us”, frontman Dicky Barrett explains. “With all that time on our hands we started to write with an accelerated tempo and we were truly inspired. As dogged as everything around us was on the [Read More]

Architects – new record “For Those That Wish To Exist” released today

February 26, 2021

The wait is over! UK Metalcore giants Architects released their 9th studio record “For Those That Wish To Exist” today via Epitaph. It follows their Top 10 record “Holy Hell” from 2018, which dealt with the tragic loss of the bands’ guitarist and brother Tom Searle. The first few releases from the record – Dead Butterflies, Animals and Black Lungs – all have a few million views already on Youtube. Their latest single ‘Meteor’ was released only a few days ago: The band was joined by special guests Mike Kerr (Royal Blood), Simon Neil (Biffy Clyro) and Winston McCall (Parkway Drive) on FTTWTE. The album is self-produced and deals with how to proceed with planet Earth despite the continuing, slow destruction by its human inhabitants. The Brits were always pretty open on their cooperation with Sea Shepherd (Sam Carter is an ambassador for Sea Shepherd), their open critic on foxhunts as well as the production of sustainable merchandise. But despite the partly hopeless situation, the band doesn’t give up the fierce fight and looks hopefully ahead. [Read More]

THE RUMJACKS RELEASE NEW LYRIC VIDEO “GOODNIGHT & MAKE MENDS”

February 22, 2021

‘Good Night & Make Mends’ is a punk rock mourning song of acceptance. It is the last song on the bands’ upcoming album ‘Hestia’, which will be released March 12th, 2021. Reading through a late friend’s poetry, the songwriter recalls all of the times the two friends casually said: “let’s write a song together sometime!” and never got around to it. Using lines of her poetry to form a call and response, the two friends, now separated by death, finally wrote their song together, albeit too late. The sorrowful tone of the uilleann pipes sets the scene for the song which reminisces on memories of drunkenly parading through the Boston snow after closing time. You can pre-order ‘Hestia’ here -> https://abcmusic.lnk.to/hestia “Hestia” Tracklisting 01 Naysayers 02 Bullhead 03 Hestia 04 Through These Iron Sights 05 Sainted Millions 06 Tell Me What Happened 07 Rhythm of Her Name 08 Golden Death 09 Lizzie Borden 10 Light in My Shadow 11 Wonderust 12 Athens to the North 13 Motion 14 Goodnight & Make Mends   For more information [Read More]

THE SPILL CANVAS RELEASE NEW SINGLE + VIDEO “DARKSIDE”

February 18, 2021

The Spill Canvas is back at it again. They’ve released the next single in anticipation of their forthcoming album “Conduit”, entitled “Darkside”. This is the third release since the announcement of the album, following the releases of “Firestorm” and “Molecules” feat. Sherry Dupree-Bemis of Eisley. “Darkside” is out now; fans can watch the video here and stream now here: On the track, lead vocalist and founding member, Nick Thomas, shares: “I feel this 3rd single from ‘Conduit’ is the most suitable song to demonstrate our concerted effort to make the most dynamically vast rock album we could. Mining the lyrical content from several old demos, I couldn’t be happier with the outcome-a cohesive portrait of a wildly toxic relationship from my past; wrought with infidelity and jealousy on both sides. Merging with the minor key, up-tempo groove, there’s an attitude of darkness the title references that we sought to adequately represent on this new record”. The band’s highly anticipated record, “Conduit”, will be out March 5, 2021 via Pure Noise Records. Fans can pre-order the [Read More]
