    (We present DGR’s review of a new EP from the nautical brutal death metal band Submerged, which was released last month by New Standard Elite.) We’ve been buried in an absolute gamut of albums over the past few months, and as is our usual tradition we have tried and failed to keep ourselves afloat in […]

  • Sublime Unveil Nostalgic Single ‘Can’t Miss You’

    Sublime have given us another taste of their first album in thirty years, and it’s one for all the old-school fans.

    Set to drop on June 12 via Atlantic Records, ‘Until The Sun Explodes’ is the band’s first full-length release since 1996, and first with Jakob Nowell on vocals.

    Today (May 15), we’ve been treated to ‘Can’t Miss You’, a surprise single that has arrived with no fanfare or long-winded marketing campaign. An intentional move made to honour the connection between the band and the fans who have stood by them over the years, it makes the emotion of the track feel all the more special.

    Speaking on the release, Jakob Nowell has shared:

    “We just wanted to drop this one for the hardcore fans. No lead in or marketing push behind it. Can’t Miss You is probably my favorite track on the record. It was one of those magic songs that got written in a day. The strange chord progression was definitely inspired by my father’s songwriting, especially songs like Pool Shark and STP. Classic Sublime always had this feeling like you never knew where the song was going to take you. I look towards my father’s work for guidance at every turn, and Can’t Miss You is a perfect example of that. The lyrics of this single are some that I am the most proud of. I hope people will find escape in the stories of this song and the entire record Until the Sun Explodes.”

    Check it out via the wickedly nostalgic video below.

    ‘Until The Sun Explodes’ is Sublime’s first body of work to feature Jakob on vocals, who is the son of the band’s original vocalist, the late Bradley Nowell. The collection of songs serves as a tribute to his memory and incredible lasting legacy, as well as a statement of intent as they look to the future.

    The band are one of the latest Rock Sound cover stars, celebrating 30 years of culture, family and music.

    Inside the mag, Jakob and Bud Gaugh detail what it means to bring the culture, energy and emotion that has surrounded the band for the last three decades crashing into 2026 in style.

    Anthrax has released “It’s for the Kids,” the lead single from Cursum Perficio — the Queens, N.Y. thrash metal institution’s 12th studio album and its first since 2016’s For All Kings. The single premiered alongside a music video directed by Don Argott, shot on a cold December day at the notorious Pennhurst Asylum.

    The band’s camp described the visual concept: “Filmed on a cold, rainy December day at the notorious Pennhurst Asylum, the video is a throwback to Anthrax‘s first video, ‘Madhouse’. Many of the details were recreated for this video, including the frigid filming conditions! The fans are the true lifeblood of this video. They got an early taste of the music and brought this filming to life.”

    Cursum Perficio was produced by Jay Ruston, who has previously worked with Stone Sour and Armored Saint. The album’s track listing surfaced online earlier in the week ahead of the single’s release. Pre-orders are available now at this location.

    Cursum Perficio tracklist:

    1. Persistence Of Memory
    2. The Long Goodbye
    3. It’s For The Kids

  • The Maine Share Surprise New Track ‘Parking Garage Song #5’

    The Maine have shared a surprise new track to complete their tenth studio album ‘Joy Next Door’.

    Though we were led to believe that we’d heard the whole record when it officially dropped last month, the Arizona five-piece have been keeping one last little secret up their sleeves – until now.

    Titled ‘Parking Garage Song #5’, the bright, acoustic-led track has been shared today, not as a bonus track, but as the essential final piece of the album’s puzzle.

    The band have spoken about what the song adds to the story of their latest chapter:

    The recording of Joy Next Door felt like a marathon as we spent months on end “perfecting” every song to create an album we are extremely proud of. During that process there was a tune we kept circling back to, that for whatever reason wouldn’t quite fully materialize even though we all felt it’s magic. The song spoke to what those obscure and ever-evolving four numbers in 8123 have meant to all of us for well over 20 years now. We were certain we couldn’t release it into the world until it was exactly how we heard it in our heads, so over the past few weeks on tour we finally realized and finished, “Parking Garage Song #5.” This is not “deluxe” or “bonus;” this is what we intended to create and share with the 8123 family.

    So without any further ado,

    THIS IS OUR TENTH STUDIO ALBUM, JOY NEXT DOOR.

    Take a listen via the gorgeously emotional music video below.


    ‘Joy Next Door’ is out now via Photo Finish Records, and The Maine will be hitting the road across both sides of the Atlantic later this year to celebrate.

    In September, they’ll be taking to stages across the UK and Europe.

    On either side of those dates will be a run of shows in the US, where they’ll be joined by Hellogoodbye and In Color.
