The band "Dazy's Fasulia" releases its third new video, "Blue Balls", from its third album, "Planet G".

The band "Scardust" releases a new single and video, "Unreachable", featuring TLV Orchestra and metal choir Hellscore, founded by the band's singer Noa Gruman in 2016. Watch and listen. It is magical and so beautiful...



The band "Linkin Park" has released a new song and video, "Up From The Bottom", from "From Zero (Deluxe Edition)". The limited CD edition will include three new songs, five live performances and expanded packaging with a booklet about the band.

The band "Sleep Token" has announced a new single, or as the band calls it, an "offering", titled "Caramel".

After an initial teaser through metal-loving weatherman Chris Michaels, the band officially confirmed the release with a social media video. The song follows last month's "Emergence". Both come from the new album "Even In Arcadia", due May 9.

The band "Shinedown" has released the official video for its No. 1 hit, "Dance, Kid, Dance".

Filmed in Brooklyn, New York, the video takes viewers into a dark underground world of pure rock energy and opens with lines from "Smells Like Teen Spirit".

The band "Sleep Theory" has released a new single from its upcoming debut album, "Afterglow".

Following "Static", "Stuck In My Head" and "Fallout", this week brings "III", which singer Cullen Moore says is about "betrayal".

The duo "Smith/Kotzen" releases its second album, "Black Light / White Noise", four years after its debut, "Smith/Kotzen". For anyone unfamiliar, it is a collaboration between Adrian Smith, guitarist of "Iron Maiden", and Richie Kotzen, known for his work with "Poison", "Mr. Big" and "The Winery Dogs".

The band "Godsmack" has announced it is parting ways with two longtime members:

"After almost three incredible decades, two of our most cherished members, Tony Rombola (guitar) and Shannon Larkin (drums), have decided to retire permanently from the band, on good terms and for no reason other than wanting simpler, quieter lives away from touring."

Shannon Larkin revealed that he and guitarist Tony Rombola left last year because they "did not want to keep touring". At this stage of their lives, both preferred to stop touring and spend more time at home.

Earlier this month, the singer of "Misfits" and "Danzig", Glenn Danzig, began a short US tour with "Down", "Abbath" and "Cro-Mags". The tour ran through the end of March, and some concertgoers criticized Danzig over Nazi imagery on official merchandise.

According to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), the symbol is one of the ancient European symbols the Nazis appropriated in their attempt to invent an idealized "Aryan/Nordic" heritage.

After its UK and European tour this summer, the reunited "Sex Pistols" (without singer Johnny Rotten) will head to North America. It is the band's first tour of the continent in 22 years, and it will perform "Never Mind the Bollocks" in full.

Featuring original members Steve Jones, Paul Cook and Glen Matlock alongside singer Frank Carter, the shows will begin in mid-September and run for four weeks.

"Bleed From Within" proves that patience and persistence are underrated in metal. While other bands chased a viral breakthrough or a lucky moment, this Scottish group has stayed its course for two decades. Often seen as a band staying in its comfort zone or following paths laid by bigger names, it has steadily released album after album and refined its sound.

Today the band releases its seventh album, "Zenith".
