gracie just released a new single called “Vendetta.” It’s the first track off her upcoming album, Miss Misfortunately, which is set to drop on June 26 through Tooth and Nail Records.

Pulling heavily from the early 2000s emo and alt-rock scene, the sound ditches clean pop for heavy guitars, raw vocals, and pissed-off lyrics. She recorded the new material in Nashville with producer Austin Davis.

“Vendetta” is out on streaming platforms now. The full album hits this June.

Between The Buried And Me will perform at The Caverns on Friday, June 19. The venue is a fully operational concert space built within a natural limestone cave system in Grundy County, Tenn., named to Billboard‘s 2026 Top Music Venues list for what the publication called its “Wow Factor.”

The Caverns has steadily built a reputation as a destination for heavy and experimental music. Previous performers inside the cave include drone pioneers Sunn O))) (two appearances), Blood Incantation, GWAR, guitarist Buckethead (three shows, with a fourth scheduled for Aug. 7), and cult sludge act Acid Bath.

General manager Joe Lurgio said, “The Caverns is a venue for all genres of music, and that certainly includes metal. Could there be a more perfect place for a metal show than surrounded by rock inside a prehistoric cave?”

Between The Buried And Me‘s June 19 Caverns show falls near the end of the band’s current 31-date U.S. headlining tour in support of their 2025 album The Blue Nowhere (InsideOut Music). The run opened May 15 in Richmond, Va., and closes June 20 in Winston-Salem, N.C., with support on select dates from Imperial Triumphant, Fallujah, Thank You Scientist, and The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die. Tickets and additional information are available at The Caverns’ website.

Formed in 2000 in Raleigh, N.C., Between The Buried And Me has released 11 studio albums, from their 2002 self-titled debut through The Blue Nowhere, earning a Grammy nomination in 2019 and consistent year-end recognition from outlets including Consequence, Revolver, and Loudwire. The band’s current lineup is vocalist and keyboardist Tommy Rogers, guitarist Paul Waggoner, bassist and keyboardist Dan Briggs, and drummer Blake Richardson.

Irish death-thrash metal mob Cutthroat unleash their debut MLP of wild savagery. Set for release via Dying Victims Productions on June 19th. I became aware of them via trading with Brione’s Roar of War fanzine and look forward to seeing these maniacs destroy London soon!

Opening with feedback drawing into a long song for the style, Cutthroat erupt with death metal of the merciless variety. Intricate drums fly across the kit as mean vocals spit venom through the tight guitar riffing. The organic production is rough but clear and powerful with a dryness to it that few bands have the guts to do these days. Instantly I adore how all over the place this is from the rumbling bass to razor-sharp dive bombs and wild vocals. Especially present is the drum work which is nice and high in the mix to hear how frantic the battery is. This is a glorious presentation of total thrashing, high speed, death metal mania. Malevolent atmospherics blend with raging ferocity to ensure that all headbangers are tied to the rusted barbed wire flailing from the speakers. As my first impression of the band’s music, I am impressed. It always brings me joy hearing younger fellas inspired by the same things I love in metal music and doing something so wild and fierce.

Ever wondered what it means to “burst command ’til war”? Well, these lads figured it out. It’s playing rabid metal, whether it’s heavy, speed, thrash, black, death or best yet; that murky enigma that fills the cracks between them all. Cutthroat play in that poisoned vein that exploded in the 80s but continues to hold a mystique and power like no other to this day. Frenzied guitar work barrelling into crushing bass lines with utterly mental drumming and psychotic vocals… that’s what it’s all about! This is a spiteful release that punishes trend-followers and modern insults to true metal – and they do it so damned well. If you ain’t morbid, get out of here now, before it’s too late..!

These morbid rites are so packed with energy, passion and aggression that you will undoubtedly need several listens to fully appreciate all of the moments of mania they manage to squeeze into 24 minutes. Every second is ruthless and yet the dynamics range from these pulsating pustules of morbidity to the full explosion of barbarity and bestial lust that one would expect from such a record. I don’t want to ramble on too long, this release is short and sweet; so I want the review to be the same. Listen to this if you like proper death metal. If you don’t; grow up.

A ripping cut of lethal death. This is the kind of wild extremity that made me fall in love with Autopsy, Morbid Angel, Possessed, Dark Angel and so on as a youngster. Proving the timeless value of this music, a new band like Cutthroat playing their own spin on these titans still has so much artistic merit and room for exploration. The feel is perfect here. From the art, production and most of all the music; “Invoking Death” lives up to its name and calls the savages of old with these diabolical incantations. Live for violence or die trying!
