ZACHARY BAKER (of AVENGED SEVENFOLD)
ANNOUNCES DEBUT SOLO ALBUM DARK HORSE
AN UNREFINED ALT-COUNTRY JOURNEY OF HARD EARNED TRUTHS
DUE OUT APRIL 3

SECOND SINGLE, “LIGHTHOUSE,” OUT NOW – LISTEN

Zachary Baker is thrilled to announce his debut solo album, Dark Horse. The guitarist and founding member of the multi-platinum rock band Avenged Sevenfold, better known around the world to fans as Zacky Vengeance, shares the album’s second single, “Lighthouse,” which follows the release of the title track, “Dark Horse.”

With Dark Horse, Baker trades distortion for dust and grit, while simultaneously carving out his own lane in the alt-country/outlaw landscape.

“The beauty is in the imperfections,” solemnly proclaims Baker, the unlikely storyteller. Driven by his restless spirit and the outlaw heroes that inspired him, listeners will find a raw sermon of honesty. Dark Horse blends poignant storytelling with Americana influences, signaling a striking evolution from his hard rock background into a songwriter stepping fully into his own.

PRE-SAVE DARK HORSE

A limited edition Dark Horse vinyl is available for pre-order in gold, pink or black. An exclusive, limited edition handwritten and signed lyric sheet for “Lighthouse” is also available for purchase on his webstore. For all news and up to date information, visit zacharybaker.net.

ATREYU
Announces New Album ‘The End is Not the End’
Set for Release on April 24th via Spinefarm
Pre-Order HERE

Shares New Single “All For You”
+ Music Video — Watch HERE

Spring Tour Announced Supporting Sevendust

Today, following the success of their recent singles “Dead” and “Ego Death,” ATREYU are proud to announce their long awaited new studio album ‘The End is Not the End,’ set for release on April 24, 2026 via Spinefarm. To coincide with the announcement, the band also shares their new track “All For You,” alongside an official music video, available below.

On the new single “All For You,” ATREYU comments:

“It’s hard to give someone what they want or need when they don’t know what that thing is. It’s hard to love someone who doesn’t love themselves.”

Watch the Music Video for “All For You” HERE

‘The End is Not the End’ is undeniably ATREYU’s heaviest album ever and their most adventurous. “We realized what made ATREYU great in the beginning was that we didn’t sound like anyone else,” frontman Brandon Saller explains. “We didn’t really make sense anywhere. We weren’t an emo band, a metal band, a punk band — but somehow it all worked. We kind of just carved our own path.”

Guitarists Dan Jacobs and Travis Miguel, bassist Porter McKnight, drummer Kyle Rosa, and Saller created several of ‘The End is Not the End’’s songs on creative trips.

“Tokyo made us feel like kids again,” Saller says. “We’d write for a few hours in the morning, then go out and get lost in all this inspiration. The first song we finished was ‘Dead,’ and we knew we were onto something.”

After the Japanese sessions, the band and their producer decamped to San Juan Island off the coast of Washington, where isolation became a creative accelerant. “It was the polar opposite of Tokyo. We didn’t leave the house for four days and wrote some of the heaviest songs on the record.”

The result is an album that feels simultaneously classic and unfamiliar, aggressive and unselfconscious, deeply emotional and unconcerned with trends. Produced by Matt Pauling, ATREYU’s tenth album is vibrant, inventive, and beautifully aggressive.

“It’s our heaviest, most metal record we’ve made,” Saller points out. “But it’s also the biggest musical journey we’ve taken in years.”

The album moves seamlessly from soaring melodic heft to muscular metallic weight, with cinematic shades and atmosphere, all tied together by a driving, raw intensity. Tracks like “Dead,” “Ghost in Me,” “Children of Light (featuring Max Cavalera),” and “Afterglow” sound both timely and timeless.

GOBLIN METAL IKONS NEKROGOBLIKON RETURN WITH THE BOILING SEA EP

BAND SHARES VIDEO FOR “THE SECRET ELEPHANT” (FEAT. REEL BIG FISH) 

TOURING THIS SPRING ALONGSIDE HANABIE. + MORE

WATCH “SECRET ELEPHANT” VIDEO

Goblin metal’s least likely legends are back. After nearly two decades of chaos, cult stardom, and the viral mayhem of “No One Survives,” Nekrogoblikon return with The Boiling Sea — the feral new EP that ushers in a historic era for the band. It arrives on April 17. Pre-order it here.

Today, the goblin metallers drop the video for “The Secret Elephant” (Feat. Reel Big Fish).

Watch the video, directed by Brandon Dermer, here.

For the first time ever, the goblin throne is shared. Former mascot-turned-frontman (and beloved host of the number one comedy podcast “RIGHT NOW”), John Goblikon steps fully into the spotlight with soaring melodic vocals, while extreme metal phenom Dickie Allen (of Infant Annihilator) unleashes the kind of throat-shredding brutality usually reserved for apocalyptic events.

“I’ve been asked to give a statement on our new song ‘Secret Elephant’ and after strong consideration, I’ve decided I’m not quite sure know what that means. But what I DO know is secrets don’t make friends… unless that secret is, of course, an elephant who you happened to befriend. Yhey also say an elephant never forgets, but goblins definitely do, because I literally can’t remember where I put my phone! I had it earlier and then I got distracted by this email asking me for a quote about our new song ‘Secret Elephant,’ which is such a banger by the way. Ooh, that reminds me I gotta look for my phone!” — Sent from John’s iPhone.

“It was so much fun filming ourselves being goofballs,” says Allen. “Also, has anyone seen my beer?”

Produced and mixed by metal mastermind Jason Suecof (Job for a Cowboy, The Black Dahlia Murder), The Boiling Sea is a high-octane proving ground for the band’s new dual-vocal onslaught, first teased by the 2025 double-feature videos for “Show Me Your Goblin” and “Fiend.”

On the upcoming release, guitarist Alex Alereza offers, “Writing for this release began in the midst of constant touring and right after bringing on a new vocal duo, so we found ourselves in new territories both in terms of pace and creative process. And that ended up being a good thing! We had a blast making this together and hope everyone enjoys these songs as much as we do. And for the Nekro fans that have been with us for a very long time, we decided to include live recordings of five Nekro classics!”

The goblin horde won’t stay submerged for long. Nekrogoblikon will hit the road on an electrifying tour alongside Japan’s genre-smashing metal force Hanabie., giving fans the chance to witness the premier goblin metal spectacle live and scream along to their favorite anthems. Get tickets here.

Nearly 20 years in, Nekrogoblikon aren’t just surviving — they’re boiling over.

GWAR Ride Again
A Unique Take on “Pink Pony Club”
Marks Record-Breaking Seventh A.V. Undercover Appearance

Watch the Performance HERE

The Gor Gor Strikes Back Tour Kicks Off March 19th

Having apparently run out of rules to follow, records to respect, and institutions to leave uncorrupted, intergalactic shock rock legends GWAR have returned to The A.V. Club’s iconic A.V. Undercover series for a record-breaking seventh appearance, officially surpassing their own previous record in the process.

This time, GWAR set their sights on Chappell Roan’s modern pop anthem “Pink Pony Club,” transforming the song’s glitter-drenched celebration of identity and self-expression into a full-scale alien-metal spectacle. What begins as euphoric pop catharsis quickly mutates into towering riffs, theatrical chaos, and the unmistakable sensory assault that has defined GWAR for four decades.

“As we put together the song list for A.V. Undercover season 10, we knew this iconic pairing had to happen,” says Danette Chavez, Editor-in-Chief of The A.V. Club. “I can’t think of a better way to celebrate this landmark season of Undercover than seeing GWAR on the stage in their heels hooves, singing ‘Pink Pony Club.’”

The Berzerker Blöthar adds:

“‘Pink Pony Club’ is about embracing exile from a boring, shitty world and remaking yourself into whatever you want—be who you are, be who you aren’t, piss people off, we don’t care!”

GWAR’s return further solidifies their singular relationship with A.V. Undercover. Over the years, the band has become the series’ most frequent, most destructive, and most shameless repeat offenders, previously dismantling songs by artists ranging from Kansas and Billy Ocean to Cyndi Lauper, AC/DC, Pet Shop Boys, and even the Barbie soundtrack. With this seventh appearance, GWAR now stands alone atop a record they themselves refuse to stop breaking.

LAMB OF GOD’S TENTH ALBUM, INTO OBLIVION,
ARRIVES MARCH 13 VIA EPIC RECORDS
PRE-ORDERS: https://Lamb-of-God.lnk.to/IntoOblivionAlbum

TITLE TRACK OUT NOW

NORTH AMERICAN INTO OBLIVION TOUR KICKS OFF ON MARCH 17

“Into Oblivion” video directed by Tom Flynn and Mike Watts

Lamb of God have set a March 13 release date for their new album, Into Oblivion (Epic Records), marking the band’s first full-length release in four years.

Into Oblivion finds Lamb of God embracing their position as modern metal veterans, beholden to no one, with nothing left to prove. The 10-song collection references the band’s roots, doubles down on their signature groove, and expands their approach, resulting in an album that feels both deliberate and untethered.

News of Into Oblivion’s March arrival is accompanied by the debut of its title track, “Into Oblivion,” alongside a video (https://lamb-of-god.lnk.to/IntoOblivionOfficial) directed by Tom Flynn and Mike Watts. Aggressive and as unforgiving as ever, the song pairs the band’s musical ferocity with psychologically charged lyrics.

“For me, the album is about having the space to breathe creatively and not feeling like we have to keep up with any trend or expectation,” guitarist Mark Morton shares. “It feels nice to be untethered from any agenda beyond rallying around the notion of, ‘Let’s just make music that we think is cool,’ which is really where it all started.”

Vocalist Randy Blythe doesn’t mince words on why the band decided to name the album Into Oblivion, saying candidly: “Because that’s where we’re heading. In general, the album is about the ongoing and rapid breakdown of the social contract, particularly here in America. Things are acceptable now that would’ve horrified people just 20 years ago.”

In the months leading up to today’s announcement, the metal veterans released a pair of blistering singles that offered listeners a taste of the album’s range. “Sepsis,” the band’s first new song since 2022, paid homage to the early ‘90s Richmond underground that shaped Lamb of God’s formative years. Consequence, in their Heavy Song of the Week feature, noted the track’s fresh approach, saying “Morton’s riffs are bruising at this slower pace,” and adding that Blythe bellows “like a heavy metal Nick Cave.” “Parasocial Christ” followed, evoking classic Lamb of God with a three-minute onslaught that Revolver dubbed an “anti-tech thrasher.”

Produced and mixed by longtime studio collaborator Josh Wilbur, Into Oblivion was recorded across multiple locations tied closely to the band’s identity. Drums were tracked in Richmond, Va., with guitars and bass recorded at Morton’s home studio. Blythe recorded his vocals at the legendary Total Access studio in Redondo Beach, Calif., the birthplace of seminal punk records by Black Flag, Hüsker Dü, and Descendents.

Album pre-orders, including multiple limited-edition vinyl variants and signed copies, are available now (https://shop.lamb-of-god.com/collections/into-oblivion). An unannounced first pressing of the album was quietly posted on the band’s website earlier this week, and sold out immediately.

GIBSON FILMS
LAUNCHES 2026 MUSIC DOCUSERIES
“IOMMI: THE GODFATHER OF HEAVY METAL”
VOLUME ONE PREMIERES WORLDWIDE TODAY

WATCH HERE

Featuring Interviews with Tony Iommi, Brian May, SLASH, Zakk Wylde, Yungblud, and more

Click on the image to play Volume One “Iommi: The Godfather of Heavy Metal,” the new limited docuseries from Gibson Films, streaming now on Gibson TV.

Watch/share Volume One “Iommi: The Godfather of Heavy Metal” HERE.

NASHVILLE, TN – Gibson Films—the storytelling studio from Gibson dedicated to original, artist-driven content that celebrates music history, culture, and the instruments that shape sound—proudly announces the worldwide premiere of Volume One of its new limited music docuseries, Iommi: The Godfather of Heavy Metal, streaming exclusively via Gibson TV throughout 2026. Watch the global premiere of Volume One—the first installment of the limited series—out now WATCH HERE.

From the smokestacks of Birmingham, England, to stages around the globe, Iommi: The Godfather of Heavy Metal traces the life and legacy of Tony Iommi, the pioneering guitarist whose sound and vision forged the foundations of heavy metal. Beginning with his working-class upbringing and the birth of Black Sabbath, the series shows how Iommi’s genre-defining riffs and groundbreaking albums reshaped rock, ignited a global movement, and inspired generations to pick up the guitar.

Volume One features Tony’s music history and a deep dive his massive influence on countless other luminaries of heavy music with in-depth interviews with Tony Iommi and a star-studded lineup of peers and disciples—including Brian May, Slash, Zakk Wylde, Yungblud, Scott Ian, John 5, Phil Anselmo, and Blackie Lawless—plus appearances by Tom Morello and Troy Van Leeuwen, and firsthand accounts from Birmingham icons Rob Halford and Justin Broadrick.

The series examines how Iommi’s innovations—and the groundbreaking work of Black Sabbath—continue to reverberate across musical styles and eras, cementing their legacy as the architects of one of the most enduring and influential genres in modern music history.

“I’m very grateful to Gibson for this new documentary series and for honouring my role in the story of heavy metal” says Tony Iommi. “Hearing the kind words from so many incredible artists is really humbling. Thank you all for telling the story with such heart—and to the fans who’ve kept it alive. Long may it continue!”

“Tony Iommi is the godfather of heavy metal—the creator, the sonic architect, the rifflord who started it all. El Padrino, as I like to call him” says Cesar Gueikian, President and CEO of Gibson. “It’s an incredible honor for all of us at Gibson to pay tribute to Tony with this epic Gibson Films release.”

“No matter what regional metal scene or sub genre we explored, every artist we interviewed always pointed the finger back to Tony” adds Mark Agnesi, Director of Brand Experience at Gibson. “He is the Riff Lord!!!!”

“Tony Iommi remains the undisputed godfather of heavy metal. Through his iconic riffs and uncompromising vision, he gave birth to a sound that was rooted in darkness and became the foundation for generations of musicians,” continues Todd Harapiak, Media Director at Gibson and Producer of the series. “It’s been truly remarkable to have so many artists unite for this series and hear how Black Sabbath changed the course of their musical lives. The Godfather of Heavy Metal not only celebrates the journey of Lord Iommi and Sabbath but also shines a light on the stories of the countless bands who carried their torch forward.”

Parents hated it. Their kids loved it. As the Summer of Love faded, an ominous new sound rose from Birmingham—Tony Iommi was its architect. His genre-defining riffs with Black Sabbath birthed a musical language that became a way of life, uniting millions through rebellion, passion, and a relentless sound that refuses to fade.

Volume One of Iommi: The Godfather of Heavy Metal is streaming now, worldwide, exclusively on Gibson TV, WATCH HERE.

BLACK VEIL BRIDES kick off 2026 with “CERTAINTY”

The new SONG and MUSIC VIDEO is OUT NOW

Click here to watch music video

Black Veil Brides are ushering in the new year with the release of their powerful new single and music video, “Certainty.”

The single will appear on the upcoming album from the band comprised of vocalist Andy Biersack, guitarists Jake Pitts and Jinxx, bassist Lonny Eagleton, and drummer Christian Coma — due for release via Spinefarm later this year—and is available now on all digital service providers here: https://blackveilbrides.lnk.to/Certainty.

“The concept of ‘Certainty’ is central to this record and appears throughout the album,” explains Biersack. “The song was inspired by the film Conclave, particularly its reflections on religious certainty and how rigid belief systems can become prisons of our own making. When certainty hardens, curiosity, growth, and the willingness to change become impossible. Much of today’s political and social discourse exists inside these echo chambers of absolute belief, and that tension drives the narrative of this record.”

To coincide with the release, Black Veil Brides have unveiled a striking new music video for “Certainty,” directed by George Gallardo Kattah (Chelsea Wolfe, Maneskin) and filmed while the band was on tour in Colombia. Featuring stunning cinematography and an intensity reminiscent of an A24 motion picture, the video mirrors the song’s themes. Further, it exemplifies the bold visual identity Black Veil Brides have cultivated throughout their career.

The music video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Dk9DI5C4Ss.

Biersack adds, “This was the final song written and recorded for the album. It started from an idea Jake sent over, and it came together quickly over the course of a few days. It felt essential both narratively and musically, capturing the overall tone of what we’re aiming for. The music video, directed by George Gallardo Kattah and his team in Bogotá, Colombia, is one of our favorites we’ve ever done. His interpretation of fear and pride as biblical twins is stunning, and the visuals are incredible.”

More information on Black Veil Brides 7th studio album will be available soon.

With Two Days Until Their Self-Titled Eighth Studio Album is Available Worldwide, Rockers ALTER BRIDGE Return With New Track “Scales Are Falling”

Watch the Visualizer HERE | Pre-Order Alter Bridge HERE

“What Lies Within” Tour With Dates in Europe and North America Starts January 15, 2026 | Ticket Info Available at www.alterbridge.com

With their self-titled eighth studio album arriving worldwide in just two days, ALTER BRIDGE return with the final song to be released ahead of the album’s official launch. “Scales Are Falling” is another signature rocker from the acclaimed quartet—Myles Kennedy (vocals/guitars), Mark Tremonti (guitars/vocals), Brian Marshall (bass), and Scott Phillips (drums).

The track explores the moment of realization that comes with uncovering deception, and the emotional impact that truth can carry once it’s revealed.

Myles Kennedy explains:
“It’s when you realize the reality of a situation where you’ve been deceived. You see the truth and how harsh it is.”

“Scales Are Falling” is available now across all digital service providers. The accompanying visualizer—created by Marcin Pospiech (Nine Inch Nails, Tool – @reinfected.me)—is also out today and can be seen below.

Mark Tremonti adds:
“I was excited for this one. It has an atmospheric vibe with a lot of peaks, valleys, and moods. I solo over the bridge, and Myles plays the outro.”

Watch the Visualizer for “Scales Are Falling” HERE:

With more than two decades as one of rock’s most consistently acclaimed bands, ALTER BRIDGE continue to push forward. Renowned for their towering riffs, infectious melodies, and masterful guitar interplay, the quartet will release their self-titled eighth studio album on January 9, 2026,via Napalm Records. As Blabbermouth.net recently noted, “More than 20 years in, ALTER BRIDGE keep showing they’re here to stay.” Physical formats are available for preorder now at https://www.lnk.to/AB-AlterBridge.

The forthcoming album features 12 brand-new tracks that rank among the band’s most compelling work to date. Songs such as “Rue the Day,” “Disregarded,” and “What Are You Waiting For” stand tall alongside staples from the ALTER BRIDGE catalog. “Trust in Me” highlights the powerful vocal chemistry between Kennedy and Tremonti, with Myles leading the verses and Mark commanding the chorus—an approach they reverse on the crushingly heavy “Tested and Able.” “Hang by a Thread” is primed for the live stage, channeling the energy of fan-favorite anthems, while album closer “Slave to Master” delivers an epic finale and marks the longest track the band has ever recorded.

The album’s first single, “Silent Divide,” continues its ascent at Active Rock radio and is approaching six million views on YouTube. Longtime producer Michael “Elvis” Baskette once again joined the band for the project, which was recorded over two months this spring at the legendary 5150 Studios in California and at Baskette’s studio in Florida.

FOREIGNER announces their 50th Anniversary Year kick off on February 25th in Beaver Creek, Colorado. This is followed by an orchestral tour that commences with a March residency at the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas and culminates in an appearance with the San Diego Symphony.

In April, FOREIGNER will tour Florida with special guest, original vocalist Lou Gramm as they present ‘FOREIGNER 4 Deluxe’, a presentation of ‘4’ in its entirety together with many of the band’s Top 10 hit songs.

The 50th Anniversary tour will continue throughout June in Europe with a 26-date tour that includes sold out shows throughout Germany, UK, Switzerland, and Scandinavia.

On July 23rd, FOREIGNER will commence a co-headline tour with rock & roll legends Lynyrd Skynyrd as they rock through an itinerary of amphitheaters throughout the United States.

FOREIGNER Skis into 50th Anniversary Year on February 25, 2026
With A Colorado Snow Country Tour

The first rehearsal of the band that would become FOREIGNER took place in New York on February 25th, 1976. Al Greenwood, the first band member recruited by Mick Jones reflects,

“This was the day I first heard “Feels Like The First Time” and I knew we had something very special.”

One of rock and roll’s most enduring and influential bands, FOREIGNER, will launch their historic 50th Anniversary Year on February 25 in Beaver Creek, Colorado, commemorating five decades of chart-topping hits, worldwide touring, and musical legacy. The milestone celebration will continue throughout 2027 when the band marks the 50th anniversary of the March 8th, 1977 release of its iconic self-titled debut album, Foreigner. FOREIGNER band members Luis Maldonado on lead vocals, Jeff Pilson on bass, Michael Bluestein keyboards, and Bruce Watson on guitar will present a very special acoustic performance of the band’s hits on the very day of the 50th anniversary at the Vilar PAC in Beaver Creek.

Throughout 2026, audiences can expect to see FOREIGNER in multiple formats. The acoustic run of shows in Colorado’s premier ski resorts will be followed by an orchestral tour that commences with a March residency at the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas and culminates in an appearance with the San Diego Symphony. In April, FOREIGNER will tour Florida with special guest, original vocalist Lou Gramm as they present ‘FOREIGNER 4 Deluxe’, a presentation of ‘4’ in its entirety together with many of the band’s Top 10 hit songs.

The 50th Anniversary tour will continue throughout June in Europe with a 26-date tour that includes sold out shows throughout Germany, UK, Switzerland, and Scandinavia. On July 23rd, FOREIGNER will commence a co-headline tour with rock & roll legends Lynyrd Skynyrd as they rock through an itinerary of amphitheaters throughout the United States.

At the heart of FOREIGNER’s legacy is founder Mick Jones, a Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee whose visionary songwriting, unmistakable guitar work, and musical leadership have guided the band through decades of innovation and influence.

Says Mick Jones, “When I started FOREIGNER in 1976, I never could have imagined that these songs would carry us through fifty years and still resonate with audiences around the world. This anniversary is a celebration not just of the music, but of the fans who have been with us every step of the way.”

The band’s groundbreaking debut album, Foreigner, produced timeless hits including “Feels Like The First Time,” “Cold As Ice,” and “Long, Long Way From Home.” Subsequent albums delivered an unstoppable string of rock classics such as “Urgent,” “Juke Box Hero,” and “Waiting For A Girl Like You”—the latter helping the album 4 dominate the Billboard charts at #1. Their fifth studio album, Agent Provocateur, defined the sound of the mid-1980s with the global #1 ballad “I Want To Know What Love Is,” following the record-breaking success of “Waiting For A Girl Like You.”

With more Top 10 hits than Journey, and as many as Fleetwood Mac, FOREIGNER features strongly in every category in Billboard’s “Greatest of All Time” listing. At times, the band’s weekly catalog sales have eclipsed those of Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, the Rolling Stones, the Who, Def Leppard, Van Halen, Aerosmith and most of their Classic Rock peers (Source: Nielsen SoundScan). With 10 multi-platinum albums and 16 Top 30 hits, FOREIGNER is universally hailed as one of the most popular rock acts in the world with a formidable musical arsenal that continues to propel sold-out tours and album sales, now exceeding 80 million.

Responsible for some of rock and roll’s most enduring anthems including “Juke Box Hero,” “Cold As Ice,” “Hot Blooded,” “Waiting For A Girl Like You,” “Feels Like The First Time,” “Urgent,” “Head Games,” “Say You Will,” “Dirty White Boy,” “Long, Long Way From Home” and the worldwide #1 hit and member of Spotify’s exclusive Billions Club, “I Want To Know What Love Is,” Rock & Roll Hall of Famers FOREIGNER still rock the charts 50 years into the game with massive airplay and continued Billboard album chart success. Audio and video streams of FOREIGNER’s hits are approaching 20 million per week. FOREIGNER‘s catalog sales were recently celebrated in Business Insider as hitting the Top 40 among the Best Selling Music Artists of All Time. FOREIGNER is Luis Carlos Maldonado on lead vocals and guitar, noted Dokken bassist Jeff Pilson, Michael Bluestein on keyboards, lead guitarist Bruce Watson, and Chris Frazier on drums.
