March 9, 2026 – Hellektrokution Records proudly presents TAZER , the Norway-based Electro-Industrial force, with their latest single “Taze is the Rule” . Following their explosive debut in 2024, TAZER continue to carve a cold, mechanical path through the industrial landscape, delivering sound designed to hit like a jolt straight to the system.
TAZER’s signature blend of aggression, tension, and uncompromising execution is captured perfectly in “Taze is the Rule,” a track that both defines their sonic identity and lives up to their name. Fans of Combichrist, Rammstein, and Rob Zombie will find themselves right at home in TAZER’s world — one of harsh electronics, crushing rhythms, and a raw, unrelenting energy.
Since forming in 2024, TAZER has steadily built their reputation. Their debut single, “A Razor Can Slit, A Tazer Can Kill” , announced their presence on all major streaming platforms, followed by the self-published debut EP “9001 Volts” , featuring four original tracks and reworked covers. Their hit single “Striptazers” has already gained significant traction, introducing new listeners to their cold, industrial assault.
TAZER Line-up:
Calico InHell – guitar & programming
Drumnibal – drums & vocals
Oni X01 – vocals & programming
Quote from the band: “The Rule Will Be Revealed.”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Brian Moody Ignites Brian’s Brain Resurgence With Bandcamp Friday Push and Exclusive Fan Bundles
Release Date: November 24, 2023
Artist: Brian Moody
Release Title: Brian’s Brain
Genre: Melodic Heavy Metal / Progressive Metal
FFO: Ozzy Osbourne , Mastodon , In Flames
Rooted in the forests of Kentucky, sharpened in the mountains of Colorado, and forged back home in Louisville, Brian Moody continues building momentum around his debut album Brian’s Brain . Writing, recording, and performing every note himself, Moody delivers a riff driven, atmospheric, and unapologetically heavy statement that blends old school grit with modern sonic precision.
The record first began making waves after debuting on LRS 102, also known as The Walrus, as the “Humpday for the Locals” kickoff track. That early radio support helped introduce listeners to what quickly became clear. This is not a casual side project. It is a fully realized metal record built with intention, sweat, and relentless studio obsession.
Produced by Brian Moody and mixed and mastered by Theodor Borovski at Slaughtered Studio in Moscow, Russia, Brian’s Brain represents a powerful Louisville to Moscow collaboration. The result bridges Bluegrass State heaviness with global production muscle, giving the album both raw authenticity and polished impact.
Sonically, the album hits like classic metal reborn through a modern lens. The theatrical weight of Ozzy era heaviness collides with the progressive stomp of Mastodon, layered with melodic aggression and cinematic keyboards that expand the sonic landscape while keeping the record firmly rooted in true heavy metal.
Metal media outlets have taken notice, especially praising Moody’s vocal delivery and songwriting:
“The vocals have a very Ozzy-esque style to them while also being very fresh and up to date.”
– Metal Media Planet
“The backing vocals remind me of Ozzy at certain moments.”
– Ze do Rock Oficial
“I like this as it has a catchy hook, and the clean vocals sound similar to Ozzy especially with the effect.”
– Metal Institute of Thrashology
“Totally awesome musicianship… sounds more like Ozzy. Killer!”
– Metalheads Forever Magazine
Moody describes the album simply:
“This album is the culmination of years of studio obsession, bridging the gap between old school 502 heavy metal roots and a modern global production sound.”
As part of the album’s renewed push, Moody is taking advantage of Bandcamp Friday with a special resurgence campaign. Fans can head over to his Bandcamp page to explore exclusive offerings including limited edition physical releases, signature merch, and special bundles tied to the Brian’s Brain era.

This weekend, Damon Albarn makes his long-awaited SNL debut with Gorillaz. Ryan Gosling will serve as host, and the promo came out today, with the English frontman mostly stone-faced with no lines.

Tu es à moi
Mais je suis à personne
Prends ce poison, mon amour

San Francisco’s Pink Stiletto come crashing in with the smeared-lipstick glamour of a nightclub riot half-buried in the fog of memory, dragging the cold chrome of early EBM, mutant synth-pop, and grubby continental club decadence into the present tense with the bonkers Bananza, a track that feels dubbed from a contraband cassette passed hand to hand behind the venue while the city outside coughs up bad news and broken promises. You can hear the old blood in it: Depeche Mode’s sleek unease, Cabaret Voltaire’s diseased disco intellect, Chris & Cosey’s erotic abrasion, DAF’s body-punch propulsion – but Pink Stiletto yank the bolts loose, hotwire the whole machine, and send it careening down the street with the headlights blown out.

The song moves with a strict, marching throb, a beat built for bodies that have seen too much and still insist on cutting a rug. There’s a tart splash in the synth lines, something wired and slightly wicked. The group calls it a reaction to the present state of things: the killing, the hate, the control, the sickness of public life spreading from screen to skin, and that charge runs through every second of it. Here, the dance floor becomes a place where dread gets burned off through repetition, where panic is drilled into rhythm until the body remembers a freedom the world keeps trying to price out, police, or pin to the wall for inspection.

The video catches that spirit beautifully by keeping it rough around the edges. Shot like a lo-fi camcorder spree outside a factory, it has the feel of an illicit gathering assembled out of instinct and nerve. People move as if they’re trying to outpace the century. The industrial backdrop gives the whole thing a hard, ugly majesty, all Brutalist concrete indifference and mechanical fatigue, while the dancing keeps punching holes through the gloom. Sean McGuirk’s editing and animation preserve the tape-scarred immediacy instead of sanding it down, so the clip lands with the right amount of beautiful damage.

Watch Bananza below:

That rawness matters because Bananza was self-produced, programmed, and recorded to tape, and you can tell. There’s no sterile showroom gleam here, just pressure, personality, and a sense of contact between hands, machines, and nerves. Tobias Lill’s mix and master keep the track lean and dangerous. Minh Tran’s photography and Soft Power Design’s visuals complete the package with style to burn.

With a 7-inch due in April through Bretford Records and Cuerdas Fuera Records, plus a summer EU run in the works, Pink Stiletto sounds like they’ve found the sweet spot where panic, pleasure, and public collapse all learn to move in step.

South Philadelphia put Bobby Rydell in front of an audience early, and he learned fast how to win a room. Raised in the Lower Moyamensing neighborhood, he started out as a kid who mimicked singers he saw on television. When he was seven, his father took him around Philadelphia clubs to ask if he could sing and do impersonations. By eight, that reputation carried him to the national television talent show TV Teen Club, where he won a contest and was recruited by bandleader Paul Whiteman, a run that lasted for several years and also gave him the stage name

The Amity Affliction continues to tease the arrival of their much-anticipated new studio record, House Of Cards, with the reveal of a blistering new single, “Bleed”.

Released as the band continues their extensive tour of regional Australia, the latest from The Amity Affliction lands with impact: A ferocious stride forward for the group into a brand new era of artistry.

Where previous single House Of Cards was an emotionally weighted insight into the relationship songwriter Joel Birch and his siblings shared with their mother, “Bleed” has manifested itself into an avenue for Birch to look at public perceptions and personas, versus the reality he exists in every day.

As he explains: “This song is a bit of a ‘fuck you’ to people online who leave comments like they know me personally, or know anything about what’s happening in my life, and a bit of a reminder to myself that I am not beholden to that idea, and I am the person I know myself to be. ‘I bleed the way I bleed…’ is my way of saying that I am the way I am not the way I am perceived to be by people who don’t actually know me and have formed or projected an idea of me onto me by way of social media.”

The release of “Bleed” further positions the House Of Cards era as one of the most exciting and defining for The Amity Affliction — a band that has been driven by the desire to navigate new creative territory, music that empowers both them as a unit as well as their community of fans who have been with them throughout all their previous chapters.

House Of Cards, the first full-length record to feature clean vocalist Jonny Reeves, is a moment of reinvention — and it is one the band is set to unleash in its full glory across a jam packed year of international touring to come.
