  • Chris Hart – Gone Tonight

    Chris Hart’s “Gone Tonight” brings a warm, feel-good softness to a story shaped by years of living life as a full-time musician in London. The song carries a nostalgic glow, looking back on the highs, lows, unexpected turns, and memorable nights that have filled his career.

    There’s an easygoing quality to the soft rock production, giving the track plenty of room to let its storytelling breathe. Chris reflects on the road he’s traveled with a sense of honesty, balancing the excitement of chasing music with the uncertainty and sacrifices that come with it.

    “Gone Tonight” feels personal without becoming overly sentimental. Its charm comes from the way he turns memories into music, capturing those fleeting moments that become part of an artist’s identity. It’s a reflective snapshot of a life spent following songs, embracing the ups and downs, and collecting stories along the way.

    Preorder The Album, Including Vinyl Variants HERE

    Goodbye Europe Tour Begins April 2027

     With Full U.S. Dates To Follow

     

    It’s pretty self-evident that Ministry has never been a big fan of “Hair Mussolini,” especially now as he bombards the American people on a near daily basis with self-aggrandizing AI slop. Al Jourgensen and co. felt it necessary to give “Trumplethinskin” a dose of his own medicine with the new single and video for “We Hate.”

    “We Hate” is the latest taste of Ministry’s final album Hate To Go (Take Out Or Delivery) coming October 30 on Cleopatra Records, following on the heels of first single, “Burned Out.” The album puts an end cap on an incredible 45-year career that has shaped a whole genre of music.
    Since 1981, Ministry and Jourgensen have been recognized as pioneers of industrial music with a history built upon 17 studio albums, 8 live releases, 8 side projects, multiple touring campaigns across 5 continents, an autobiography, 2 documentaries, the administration of last rites no less than 3 times, and the countless numbers of devoted acolytes and fans.
    But before bidding adieu, creator and music madman Al Jourgensen has a few final things to say about the state of the world, those in charge and how we should all collectively move forward on the final album.
    Notably, Hate To Go (Take Out Or Delivery)Ministry’s 17th release—features one final collaboration with legacy member Paul Barker on the final album track “We’re Still Here,” alongside the handiwork of current Ministry bandmates, guitarists Monte Pittman and Cesar Soto, bassist Paul D’ Amour, sampler/synth player John Bechdel and drummer Pepe Clarke Magaña.
    The full track list is as follows:
    1. Crickets
    2. Voices of Hate
    3. Clown Car
    4. We Hate
    5. Delete
    6. Grifter
    7. The White Man Lied*
    8. Singularity
    9. Burned Out
    10. We’re Still Here (ft. Paul Barker)
    *does not appear on cassette or vinyl editions
    Hate To Go (Take Out Or Delivery) will be available in several formats including vinyl, CD, cassettes and digital, also including several vinyl variants and box sets:
    • Green & Black Splatter LP
    • Silver & Black Splatter LP
    • Coke Bottle Green LP
    • Box Set: Green Splatter LP, Picture LP, 7-inch, CD
    • Box Set: Purple Marble LP, Picture LP, 7-inch, CD
    Fans can pre-save the digital album HERE and pre-order digital copies HERE, and find a new Ministry merch line HERE.
    Ministry will bring tracks from Hate To Go (Take Out Or Delivery) and other classic hits on the road in 2027 with an international goodbye tour. The Goodbye Europe Tour with special guest Die Krupps begins April 2027. It will be followed by a full U.S. run, to be announced. The European tour dates will feature exclusive meet and greet opportunities with Al Jourgensen, also including a photo op, souvenir laminate pass, silk screen poster and final European tour coin. Fans can purchase meet and greets HERE.
    In the meantime, Ministry has a few final U.S. tour dates for 2026, including Chicago’s Salt Shed, the historic Red Rocks in Colorado and appearances at Louder Than Life and Sick New World Texas. Find more info and tickets at MinistryBand.com.

  • B-Rad – A Glorious Song

    B-Rad taps into deep personal pain on “A Glorious Song”. An intense gospel/country pop piano ballad that confronts the emotional fallout of a difficult divorce and its impact on his children. The stripped-back piano creates a vulnerable foundation, allowing every lyrical moment to carry real weight and sincerity.

    The song’s southern rock influence adds another layer of grit, balancing its gospel-inspired heart with a country-rooted sense of storytelling. B-Rad doesn’t shy away from uncomfortable emotions, instead channeling heartbreak, regret, love, and reflection into a deeply personal performance.

    “A Glorious Song” feels less like a polished narrative and more like an open emotional confession. Its strength comes from the honesty at its center, with the piano-driven arrangement giving the songwriting plenty of room to breathe. B-Rad captures the complicated emotions surrounding family, separation, and trying to find meaning through pain.

  • The Tragically Hip Release Live Album

     

    EN YEARS SINCE THEIR FINAL TOUR, THE TRAGICALLY HIP RELEASE LANDMARK LIVE ALBUM

     

    TO COINCIDE WITH THIS RELEASE, CBC TO RE-AIR THE TRAGICALLY HIP: A NATIONAL CELEBRATION CONCERT TOMORROW NIGHT – AUGUST 22 ON CBC RADIO ONE AND CBC MUSIC’S YOUTUBE PAGE

    THE TRAGICALLY HIP’S ICONIC ALBUM YER FAVOURITES CELEBRATES 400 WEEKS ON THE BILLBOARD CANADA TOP 200 CHART THIS WEEK 

    Ten years ago, The Tragically Hip took the stage for the final time in their hometown of Kingston, Ontario. That extraordinary night has since become woven into Canada’s cultural fabric, and now, the band is set to honour its legacy with the release of a landmark live album, Live July 22 – August 20, 2016 out today, and exclusive CBC rebroadcast/global live stream of The Tragically Hip: A National Celebration tomorrow (August 22) at 4 p.m. PT / 7 p.m. ET on CBC Gem, CBC Music’s YouTube page, and CBC Radio One on SiriusXM.

     

    Featuring recordings from the band’s unforgettable final cross-Canada tour, including “Ahead By A Century” from their final show in Kingston, Live July 22 – August 20, 2016 captures The Tragically Hip’s last stand in real time, powerful, unfiltered, and preserved in Dolby Atmos for generations to come.

    Listen to The Tragically Hip: Live July 22 – August 20, 2016 HERE

    The Kingston finale marked the closing chapter of the Man Machine Poem Tour, a 15-date, coast-to-coast farewell that reached millions. One third of Canadians tuned in, at a fever pitch they filled arenas, gathered in public squares, and watched from living rooms and on phones. As CBC’s historic 2016 broadcast unfolded, the nation stood still. It was more than a concert; it was a shared heartbeat. Billed as A National Celebration, the final Kingston show had Canadians and fans worldwide come together to honour a band whose songs are stitched into the collective subconscious of this country.

    Now, a decade later, that historic chapter is being commemorated with Live July 22 – August 20, 2016, a new collection featuring standout performances from across the Man Machine Poem tour. Mixed and mastered in Dolby Atmos by the band’s longtime audio engineer Mark Vreeken, the release stands as both a definitive document of an extraordinary tour and a lasting tribute to The Tragically Hip’s enduring impact.

    A National Celebration in every sense, the performance became a defining cultural moment honoring a band whose music has long been that heartbeat of Canada.

  • CUTTHROAT Debut New Music Video “Hard Times” In Tandem With Today’s Release Of New EP The Purge

    CUTTHROAT just returned home following a month of European shows just in time to celebrate today’s release of their new EP, The Purge.

    Cutthroat just finished an amazing tour with Vio-lence. We made a lot of new friends and partied with old ones,” details vocalist Neil Roemer. “It was exciting to play in front of new metal crowds and then win them over night after night. The band is on a new level, right in line with the new release and new heavier sound.

    That sound can be heard on the latest emphasis track and EP’s  opening cut “Hard Times,” watch the music video HERE: https://youtu.be/xyh2m1tUpjY?si=xjeSvKaVC7ucynS0

    Something that is more common than ever today. Hard times!” states Neil.  “However, hard times do not define us. They actually show us what we are made of and what we are willing to do to make it through.

    Hard Times” follows an earlier clip for the single “Purge” https://youtu.be/xa1-SuC6XAg?si=fvu6d00SUZRnlHjP

    The new EP, The Purge, is available on all streaming/download digital platforms, as well as physically on jewelcase CD and limited-edition (300) ‘Purge the System’ colored vinyl. Note – today CD in stores and vinyl will be trickling in over the next couple weeks due to some production delays. Or order direct; we have vinyl and CDs available now and shipping from our webstore www.m-theoryaudio.com/store and Bandcamp https://cutthroatla.bandcamp.com/

    Orders will be fulfilled from the US or European office based on where you live. We also have stocked CUTTHROAT’s backcatalogue from their previous label Demons Run Amok, so if you’re looking for the Reflekt EP or the Fear By Design album we have them on CD and Vinyl now.

    Breaking out of the L.A. Hardcore scene and combining serious attitude and fast rudiments, CUTTHROAT have been building a reputation for themselves with solid releases and worldwide touring.  Fans can expect a relentless assault with crossover appeal suitable for punk and metal fans with influences from classic hardcore, thrash and even hip-hop. The Purge is a specially priced crushing crossover assault with 5 songs of pure hardcore hostility, featuring cover art by Mick Lambrou (Agnostic Front, Slapshot, Sick Of It All).
