Jera On Air 2026 is one of the strongest hardcore metal festival lineups in Europe this summer. The Dutch festival will return to Ysselsteyn, Netherlands, from June 25 to June 27, 2026, bringing together a huge mix of metalcore, punk rock, hardcore, pop-punk, post-hardcore, alternative rock and more.

The festival has already confirmed several major names for its 2026 edition, including Architects, The Offspring and Papa Roach as some of the biggest acts on the bill. With the latest lineup update, Jera On Air has now added even more power to the weekend, including Ice Nine Kills, We Came As Romans, Madball, Boundaries, Turbonegro, Dog Eat Dog, Bob Vylan, Destroy Boys, Free Throw, Allt, Belvedere, Nevertel, Quicksand, Rain City Drive, Sugar Spine, Haywire and Melrose Avenue.

For fans of modern metalcore, Architects will be one of the most anticipated names of the weekend. The British band has become one of the leading forces in heavy music over the past two decades, moving from underground metalcore roots to arena-sized shows and massive festival stages. Their set at Jera On Air 2026 is expected to be one of the heaviest and most visually intense performances of the festival.

Punk rock fans also have a huge reason to be excited, as The Offspring will bring decades of California punk anthems to the Netherlands. With classics such as “Self Esteem,” “The Kids Aren’t Alright,” “Pretty Fly (for a White Guy)” and “Come Out and Play,” The Offspring remain one of the most recognizable punk bands in the world. Their festival performances are usually full of energy, humor and big sing-along moments, making them a perfect fit for Jera On Air.

Papa Roach will also be among the biggest names at the 2026 edition. The band has been a major force in alternative metal and rock since the early 2000s, with songs like “Last Resort,” “Scars,” “Getting Away with Murder” and “Between Angels and Insects” becoming staples of modern rock culture. Their live shows are known for emotional intensity, crowd interaction and high-energy performances, so their Jera On Air appearance should be one of the weekend’s key highlights.

The latest lineup wave adds a strong metalcore and hardcore edge to the festival. Ice Nine Kills, known for their horror-inspired theatrical metalcore, will bring a darker and more cinematic atmosphere to the bill. The band’s live shows often feel like a mix of metal concert and horror performance, which should make them one of the most talked-about acts of the weekend.

We Came As Romans are another major addition. The American metalcore band has built a loyal fanbase through emotional songwriting, melodic choruses and heavy breakdowns. Their appearance at Jera On Air 2026 adds another strong name for fans of the modern core scene.

Hardcore fans are also well served. Madball, Hatebreed, Boundaries, Terror-related energy in spirit, and several other heavy acts help give this year’s lineup a serious pit-friendly character. Hatebreed are already confirmed for Saturday, while Madball and Boundaries are part of the newly added names. Expect plenty of circle pits, stagedive energy and old-school hardcore atmosphere throughout the weekend.

Jera On Air 2026 is not only about metalcore and hardcore, though. The lineup also includes pop-punk and alternative favorites such as A Day To Remember, All Time Low, Alkaline Trio, The Ataris, The Menzingers and Free Throw. This gives the festival a wide emotional range, from heavy breakdowns to nostalgic sing-alongs and melodic punk rock moments.

There are also several interesting names for fans who like their festivals a little more unpredictable. Viagra Boys, Bob Vylan, Ho99o9, Wargasm, Turbonegro and Suicidal Tendencies bring different shades of punk, noise, post-punk, crossover and alternative chaos to the lineup. That variety is one of the reasons Jera On Air continues to stand out among European heavy music festivals.

(written by Islander) I want to begin this premiere feature with a personal note. While working on Northwest Terror Fest in Seattle a few weeks ago I witnessed what might have been the wildest musical riot of the entire event, a performance at the packed-to-the-gills Barboza venue by the North Texas grind band Triage.

Deep Purple have today (June 5) released their new single “Diablo,” the latest taste from Splat!—their new studio album, out July 3 on earMUSIC. The new track features a very special guest: global superstar and Grammy-winning guitarist, singer, and songwriter Keith Urban on second guitar.

“Diablo” follows “Arrogant Boy” (the album’s first single) and opens the door to one of Deep Purple’s surreal new story worlds: the most dangerous place on earth, where a heroine crosses a river, jumps into a fighting pit, celebrates with a bucket of wine, falls into the glitter pool and somehow makes it back home with a tale to tell. “Diablo” is a classic Deep Purple rocker—
the kind of hard rock track that lives from the riff, the groove, and the band chemistry captured in the studio.

The official music video for “Diablo” is a live performance piece that will premiere via earMUSIC’s YouTube channel on Sunday, June 7 at 2:00 PM ET, 11:00 AM PT. Fans joining the premiere will also be able to chat with Deep Purple’s Roger Glover.

“It is all about taking chances,” Deep Purple frontman Ian Gillan says of “Diablo.” “Just for once in your life, do something exciting, step out of the mold, take that curious bend in the road instead of sticking to the highway and do something that will, for the rest of your life, either guide or warn you.”

Splat! has already received enthusiastic first fan and media reactions, with early press praising the album’s Deep Purple spirit. Uncut calls Splat! “distilled, high-octane Purple at its finest,” while Classic Rock praises the album for delivering “everything that makes Deep Purple one of the greatest acts in hard rock.”

Deep Purple are gearing up for a major run of European summer dates, starting next week in Finland, followed by shows in Norway, France, Germany, Spain, Switzerland, and Italy before the Splat! World Tour heads to North America. The upcoming touring schedule includes 86 shows across 28 countries. Tickets are available via Deep Purple’s official website.

Splat! will be released on July 3 on earMUSIC and is available for pre-order in multiple formats including CD, vinyl, and limited editions. Further exclusive fan items are only available on the official Splat! shop.

Splat! will be available July 3 in multiple formats:

• Limited Box Set, containing: 2LP Gatefold (180g). 12-page vinyl-sized booklet. CD Digisleeve. 3 exclusive 10-inch vinyl records featuring live recordings from the DEEP PURPLE Tour 2024. Exclusive 7-inch single featuring the bonus track “GUINNESIS” (not included on the studio album and available exclusively in the box set!)
• CD (Digisleeve)
• 2LP Gatefold (black, 180g) + 12-page vinyl-sized booklet
• Limited Purple 2LP Gatefold (180g) + 12-page vinyl-sized booklet
• Limited Transparent Yellow 2LP (180g) + 12-page vinyl-sized booklet

All LP editions include a rich 12-page LP-sized booklet with illustrations and all song lyrics – available exclusively with the first pressing.

Further exclusive items are available via the official artist store, including:

• Limited 2LP Picture Disc + 12-page vinyl-sized booklet

When not posting fanfic and AI slop to Patreon, living legend Bob Dylan continues to tour hard well into his eighties. He’s finding ways to keep show-goers on their toes, too. The newly 85-year-old Dylan broke out some rarities during his spring tour, and he kept that same energy as the latest leg of his Rough And Rowdy Ways Tour kicked off Thursday.

Seven Metal Sins are a new act from France dedicated to the classic 80s heavy metal sound made famous by Accept and Gravedigger. On their Legacy of Chaos debut, they bring a ton of retro enthusiasm to the table, trying their level best to cobble together an album’s worth of headbanging, fist-pumping metal with loads of macho machismo and every traditional metal trope imaginable. The closest comparison is Gravedigger, as Seven Metal Sins base their sound around big, beefy riffs and warbling, semi-harsh vocals. This makes the material on Legacy of Chaos sit somewhere between Gravedigger classics like Excalibur and especially Rheingold. That’s a fine place to aim for, but unfortunately, it’s not so easy to stick the landing and come up equal to those particular platters. It also leaves those who attempt it exposed to sounding like an earnest but watered-down copy of the original. And in the worst-case scenario, a mere copy of a copy. Can Seven Metal Sins avoid these lethal pitfalls?

There’s no shortage of meatheaded metal exuberance on opening proper cut “Scars of Injustice.” It’s got everything someone who grew up in the 80s blasting Teutonic metal could want. Frontman Clovis Gay sounds a whole lot like Gravedigger’s Chris Boltendahl crossbred with Rebellion’s Michael Seifert, and he gleefully goes WAY over the top with a hoarse squeal and roar. As Clovis does his thing, Antton Iriat and Frédéric Auclerc flatten resistance with road-grading, burly riffs, and entertaining harmonies designed to bring out your inner ape. There’s a big whiff of Rheingold here, and I can’t huff enough of that Germanic wonderdust. The template thus set, Seven Metal Sins set out to build on it whilst beating your ass from chimpanz-A to pimpanzeE. Cuts like “Hypocrisy” eschew nuance in favor of head-on, full-speed collision dynamics, using riffacades and raw aggression to drive the point home, and it works for them in the same way it worked for Gravedigger on their best albums. Album highlight “Feel the Steel” takes this formula and runs with it for 4 minutes of brain-shaking classic metal fury that gets even an elder primate like me up and throwing heavy objects. It’s a warhammer of a tune, and it reminds me a lot of the better Rebellion material, including their mighty paean, “Taste of the Steel.”

Legacy of Chaos is the rare album that improves as it rolls along, gathering momentum and crucial energy, and the songwriting becomes more and more memorable too. Later tracks like “Wolves of the Last Dawn” and “Sun Eaters” are old-timey heavy metal burners, high on energy, low on subtlety, and they’re great for a tough cardio session. “Rise of the Phoenix” has one of the best choruses, and even the closing power ballad “King of Sorrow” works, both as a change of pace and a suitably epic finale. At just under 47 minutes, Legacy of Chaos is a fast-moving, jacked-up spin through the glory days of heavy metal, and no song outstays its welcome or bogs down the meat parade.

Clovis Gay has the kind of voice that was made for metal. He can sign, but often opts to roar, shout, warble, and caterwaul, and that’s the golden ticket for this kind of fare. Like Chris Boltendahl, he will be a love or hate proposition for some, but I dig his rough ‘n’ ready style and his silent film era villain moustache. That said, it’s Antton Iriat and Frédéric Auclerc who really anchor the sound with their mighty riffs and the way they use them to hammer at you until you give in and enjoy the ride. This is a tried-and-true formula, and it works in 2026 as it did in 1985.

When I first started spinning Legacy of Chaos, I felt like Seven Metal Sins were like Gravedigger from Temu or a “we have Gravedigger at home” situation. Both are somewhat true, but the band is stout enough to deliver an entertaining platter of metal nonetheless. There’s nothing here you haven’t heard a million times before, and no one will put this on end-of-year lists, but it’s a fun, brainless release with enough nut wattage to warm the cockles of the 80s metal fan. Now let’s commence to metal sinning.¹
