Green Lung Reveal ‘Necropolitan Line’ Single

Albion’s masters of folklore, riffs and legends return with another slab of tomb-shaking, crypt-kicking occult rock. Green Lung have revealed their latest track, ‘Necropolitan Line‘, a Motorhead-meets-Deep Purple subterranean rampage across London’s infamous Necropolis Railway.

‘Necropolitan Line‘ is taken from Green Lung‘s forthcoming new record, Necropolitan, due out on Friday September 11th 2026. A monumental portrait of the power of nature over the dreams and dominion of humankind, Necropolitan is also a grand celebration of the occult lore and heavy music scene of the band’s birthplace, the city of London.

Green Lung stated:

“Is there a more fitting subject for a Green Lung song than the Necropolis Railway, a real-life train line that carried corpses and mourners across London in the late 19th Century? Mix in some inspiration from 1972’s London Underground-set shocker Death Line, a madcap neoclassical organ/guitar duel that evokes Richie Blackmore and Jon Lord at their finger blistering best, and a record Lung BPM of 180, and you have the second single from our fourth album. We can’t wait to play this one live for the first time at the Acid Bath show in Manchester on Thursday. Mind the doors!”

The video, directed by Tracy Mathewson and featuring animation from Joseph Brett, is a tribute to the early 70s German TV show Beat Club, which featured Lung antecedents such as Sabbath, Purple and Lucifer’s Friend. Featuring an introduction from longtime roadie Metal Joe, we enter the band’s own warped version of the show, titled Crypt Club. Will future episodes follow? Only time will tell…

On the week that Necropolitan is released, Green Lung will be visiting some selected record stores to sign vinyl and CDs, plus fans will have the chance for a photo op with their very own Goatwizard. Head to greenlung.co.uk for more details! And keep your eyes peeled for more events as we get closer to release…

Red Hands and Eric Gales have achieved a rare Billboard chart milestone as their collaborative album Kinfolk debuted at No. 1 on both the Billboard Blues Albums chart and the Billboard Gospel Albums chart.

Released on June 12, Kinfolk blends blues, gospel, and soul influences, helping the album connect with audiences across multiple genres. Landing at the top of both charts is an uncommon accomplishment and highlights the project’s appeal.

Eric Gales shared his excitement about the achievement in a statement to Blues Rock Review.

“I am extremely proud of and happy to be a part of this amazing project with Red Hands,” said Gales. “I’m floored to wake up and find out we are #1 not only on the Gospel Billboard charts, but also #1 on the Blues Billboard charts!!! Wowowow. I’m so grateful!!! I’m looking to begin to spread the EG “DNA” on everything I can!! Thanx so much for the continued support.”

Red Hands also thanked fans for their support in a message posted on Facebook.

“The amount of love you’ve shown this album has been crazy, and grateful honestly feels like too small of a word. Thank you for embracing these songs, these stories, and this reminder that people are still the assignment.

Huge love to @Ericgalesband, the 🐐, for believing in this project and bringing your heart to it. We’re honored to have shared this moment with you, family.”

The chart-topping success adds another milestone to Gales’ career, coming off Grammy wins as part of the Sinners soundtrack, with the acclaimed guitarist continuing to push beyond traditional genre boundaries. Gales was also just announced to take part in Buddy’s Got the Blues: A 90th Birthday Concert Celebration for Buddy Guy, on October 1, 2026, at Radio City Music Hall in New York City.

Sumerian Records have revealed the details of a new tribute to the generational genius of The Smashing Pumpkins, with plenty of stars taking on their classics.

‘Sending Hearts To All My Dearies – A Tribute To The Smashing Pumpkins’ is set for release on August 14 and has been co-signed personally titled by Billy Corgan. It is made up of 15 songs from across the band’s career covered by some of Sumerian’s family and beyond.

The tracklisting looks like this:

1. Tame Impala – Hummer
2. Yonaka – Today
3. The Midnight – Tonight, Tonight
4. Carpenter Brut – Cherub Rock
5. Barns Courtney – 1979 
6. Meg Myers – Eye
7. Palaye Royale – Bullet With Butterfly Wings
8. Between The Buried and Me – Jellybelly
9. Alice Glass – Drown
10. Starbenders – Tonight, Tonight
11. Nita Strauss – 1979
12. Bones UK – Cherub Rock
13. Moon Taxi – Thirty Three
14. Des Rocs – Bullet With Butterfly Wings
15. Urban Heat – Ava Adore

And the artwork looks like this:

The first taster of the tribute is out now as well, and it is the opening track. That is a take on ‘Hummer’, the beautifully tranquil epic from 1993’s ‘Siamese Dream’. Delivering their own version of it is none other than Tame Impala, who take the woozy and kaleidoscopic tendancies of the original and ramp them up tenfold.

Kevin Parker had this to say about it:

“Siamese Dream was the soundtrack to my high school years and ‘Hummer’ is the song that takes me back there in the most potent way.”

Bloodstock Bound: Thrasherwolf

As Bloodstock gets closer, we delve deep into the line up to find out more about some of the bands playing the New Blood and EMP stages at this years event.

Today we chat with Thrasherwolf

Please introduce yourselves.

Hey guys, Dan from Thrasherwolf here! We are a four piece thrash metal outfit from deepest south London! I am the front man and composser of the group as well as it’s friendly face on social media. Zaq is our resident drum king and kit master, he carries our thrash clock and keeps it ticking, providing the beats the pack knows and loves. Rai our resident four string maestro is our bass player and is responsible for providing the low end and the groove of our sound, he is full of creative ideas to that you can very often see during our live sets and lastly Brody, he is our newest addition and the Floyd rose wizard, his guitar playing is as unique as the man himself and his wonderful playing and musical engineering knowledge is proving essential in the new Thrasherwolf framework!

Catch us all on the New Blood stage where we will bring old classics, mosh pitting headbangers and maybe even something new!

How would you describe your sound?

We would describe ourselves as thrash, just thrash. No bells, no whistles, just pure unbridled…thraaaaaaash!

How did you land your spot on the Bloodstock bill?

Hard work and toil! We were invited to play and we like to think we earned our place on the bloodstock lineup by showing our chops through our the scene as well as how much the pack has grown over the years. We have come a long way and we like to think that people can see and even hear our growth in our releases, leading up to the beginning of our next chapter and the beginning of our journey with the bloodstock family.

What does playing at Bloodstock mean to you?

It means the world, the beginning of a new journey at our favourite festival we have dreamed of playing for years. Upon seeing the invitation email we were ecstatic and so excited!

For people who’ve never seen you live, what can they expect at Bloodstock?

They can expect pure carnage. Pits, walls of death, movement and the chance to join the pack in celebration of this glorious moment! Maybe even… something entirely new.

What day are you performing?

We are performing the Saturday on the New Blood and we cannot wait to bring the pack!

What other bands are you looking forward to watching at Bloodstock this year?

Death Angel and Municipal Waste being a two for certain. Plenty of others but it’d take up a whole page of A4 to name them all.

Playing the New Blood Stage is just the first steppingstone in a bands journey. What’s next in your plans for world domination?

Next step is to get representation in as many ways as possible for our 3rd album as well as for our equipment as there are tonnes of brands we would love to start relationships with. Then to hit as many festivals in the UK as possible and lastly build the pack globally even further by heading over seas to spread the word of thrash!

Are you camping with the fans? Which campsite are you heading for?

Will have to wait and see, maybe we are and maybe we aren’t, you’ll have to come and hunt us down.

You’ve gotta keep hydrated at Bloodstock, what is your drink of choice for the weekend?

I personally don’t drink as much as I used to but given the mood I can either be found with a desperado or a double cauvousier and coke.

See you at Bloodstock in a few weeks!

See you there guys! Wanna see you all upfront!
