Hardcore stalwarts Pro-Pain aren’t slowing down at all. After coming back and announcing their first new album in 11 years, this quartet of old dogs show they’ve still got plenty of pissed off energy to throw right in your face.

Released as the second single off their forthcoming album Stone Cold Anger, due out on May 15 via Napalm Records, “March Of The Giants” is roughly four minutes of righteous fury. Speaking of the track itself, vocalist/bassist Greg Meskil said the track’s all about standing your ground against oppressive forces.

“‘March Of The Giants’ [is] a song about standing tall and moving forward together to challenge oppressive forces and create real change. It was the first track completed for the new album, written with assistance from Eric Klinger and our former guitarist, Matt Sheridan.”

According to Meskil, the new album focuses on a lot of the fucked up energy that’s going around the planet today, stating that it was “forged from global tension and the rising demand for accountability.” Shouldn’t surprise anyone, really.

Stone Cold Anger will be released on May 15 via Napalm Records, but you can preorder your copy today.

After producer Louie Shelton announced Crofts’ death early Thursday morning, one of Crofts’ relatives confirmed to TMZ that the “Summer Breeze” hitmaker died Wednesday from complications of a heart surgery. His death follows that of musical partner Jim Seals, who passed away in 2022. Crofts was 85.

Paul McCartney has a way of sneaking up on you. Just when you think you know every corner of his story, he drops “The Boys of Dungeon Lane.”

As you can probably guess from the band name, Hold My Own make heavy, chest-thumping hardcore anthems with big, chunky riffs. The band members, spread across Chicago and New Jersey, have been in the game for a while, and they’ve all got extensive resumes. Frontman Gregory Falchetto used to lead the band that was unfortunately…

Nobody apart from aficionados remembers that what’s considered Todd Rundgren‘s initial brace of albums was actually issued as platters credited to a band called RUNT which the singer fronted, and it wasn’t until 1972’s “Something/Anything?” that he emerged as a … Continue reading →

There will be no Cavalera reunion at Sepultura‘s final show. Guitarist Andreas Kisser has confirmed that founding brothers Max and Iggor Cavalera were invited to take part in the band’s farewell concert in São Paulo later this year — and turned it down.

Speaking to Metal Hammer, Kisser says he personally called Iggor months ago, and that management-level contact was also made with the brothers’ representatives. The answer, ultimately, was no.

“We did invite the Cavalera brothers,” Kisser said. “I spoke to Iggor personally on a phone call a few months ago, and we started some communication. Even our managers went to talk to their management and stuff. But, they don’t want to be a part of it, and that’s OK. It’s a choice.”

Kisser made clear that the invitation came from a genuine place, not obligation. “It would make sense to have a celebration at the end, for the fans, and just to enjoy ourselves onstage,” he said. “[It could be] like it was on Roots, you know? Despite all the fucking crazy stuff around it, we managed to make that album and finish what we had to do, you know?”

Max and Iggor co-founded Sepultura in Belo Horizonte in 1984. Max departed at the end of 1996 following a management dispute involving his wife, Gloria; Iggor followed a decade later in 2006, subsequently reuniting with his brother in Cavalera Conspiracy. Kisser had been part of the lineup since 1987, joining ahead of the recording of Schizophrenia.

Max had previously floated the idea of a reunion himself. In June 2024, he said he’d be open to it, only to walk it back the following month, citing his commitment to what he and Iggor had built together under the Cavalera banner.

“You kind of have to realise if we end up doing a Sepultura reunion, it’s almost like we can’t go back to the Cavalera thing, you know?” Max told Metal Injection. “It won’t really make sense. People probably will be like, ‘I don’t want to go watch Cavalera if they’re doing a “real” reunion.’ To me, I don’t want to do that because I love what we have here in Cavalera now. It’s so badass.”

Sepultura — now featuring Derrick Green on vocals and Grayson Nekrutman on drums — announced their retirement in 2023, citing the grind of the album/tour cycle, the loss of Kisser‘s wife Patricia to cancer in 2022, and a reluctance to try to top Quadra (2020). Their final European show takes place at 3Arena in Dublin in August, ahead of the São Paulo farewell. A four-track farewell EP, The Cloud Of Unknowing, arrives on 04/24.

Joining Sepultura during their final lap in US stages are thrash metal legends Exodus, hardcore heavyweights Biohazard, and rising newcomers Tribal Gaze.
