  • Snake Bite Whisky Team Up With Kelly Garni for Randy Tribute

    On March 19, 1982, music was changed forever when Ozzy Osbourne’s brilliant guitarist, right hand man and protege was killed in a freak air crash. He was only 25 years old, but left behind a legacy that is still felt today.

    In November last year, Rhoads’ bandmate in Quiet Riot, Kelly Garni, toured Australia celebrating that legacy. While he was here, he teamed up with Brisbane rockers Snakebite Whisky to perform Killer Girls, originally from the Sunset Strip band’s 1979 album Quiet Riot II.

    After the tour, the gang decided to lay down their version for posterity, teaming up in a studio to lay down their tribute to one of rock and metal’s biggest guitar influences. Check out the result here, or watch the clip below.

    Snakebite Whisky head to the US in August.

  • The HU drop two new singles, The Men and Warrior Chant

    The HU have unleashed two brand-new singles, The Men and Warrior Chant.

    Following January’s The Real You, the hunnu rock pioneers have given fans a double-dose from their forthcoming third studio album – the follow-up to 2022’s Rumble Of Thunder.

    Speaking about The Men, lead throat singer Galaa reveals that it was ​“written based on Mongolian philosophy of Man’s Inner Spirit or Хийморь and the importance of inner strength and kindness of a man to the world. Energy of men should always be reinforced with positiveness, strength and generosity, so this song tries to encapsulate that ancient wisdom and share it with the rest of humanity. The lyrics are chants that guide young and old men alike to be headstrong and to have a dream that cultivates goodness. We only wanted to focus on the positives that can make a man ponder about who he is in this world and wonder about how he can have a positive inner spirit when listening to it. We hope our fans will be able to capture every fibre of Mongolian Man’s way of living through this song.”

    Of Warrior Chant, meanwhile, he shares that the track ​“has our signature rhythm that our fans fell in love with and everyone who knows us will say that it is ​‘our song’. Our third album has a bit of everything, rhythm-wise and we see that as a progress of expanding the hunnu rock genre… Enkush and I focused on horse head fiddle solos by imitating the horse gait and you can hear that rhythm throughout the song.”

  • Static Dress Announce Special Free Event “A Live Death Display”

    Static Dress have shared the details of a special event that they say “will truly reshape everything”.

    Titled “A Live Death Display”, it will take place on March 31 at a secret location in London.

    The event will be free to enter for those who RSVP, which can be done right here. Spaces are limited, and it will function on a first-come, first-serve basis. So, you know, be snappy.

    It will also be a no-camera, no-phone occasion, so you know something truly spectacular is going to happen. Location will be revealed 48 hours before the event, too.

    It’s very exciting, to say the least.


    The reveal comes after the announcement that the band had signed to Sumerian Records at the start of the year, alongside the release of their new track ‘human props’.

    Check it out below.

  • Divine Chaos / Hate Reactor – A Frighteningly Good Metal Comeback

    Divine Chaos return with Hate Reactor, their first new release since 2020

    There was a time when Divine Chaos were about to burst onto the scene. 2020’s The Way To Oblivion suggested big things were coming, but since 2022’s support slot to Evile, there has been little to find on socials or gig-wise.

    Divine Chaos – Hate Reactor

    Release Date: 27 March 2026

    Words: Paul Hutchings

    Hate Reactor sees the band returning with a pretty big bang. Nine tracks span 40 minutes, and all bring a huge sound and modern production that straddles several genres whilst always retaining the heft of a band whose natural home straddles Death and Thrash Metal. 

    Central to everything that is good is singer Jut Tabor, whose power is something to behold. This, combined with the dual guitar work of founders Matt Gilmoor and Chris O’Toole, pushes everything forward with a dynamism often lacking in other bands.

    The album kicks off with two big beasts that collide with huge amounts of weight and groove. Regicide is followed by the title track, a glorious Lamb Of God vibe that allows plenty of space yet does not let up for a second. It is explosive, addictive, and sees some high-level lead work. 

    The band’s ability to fuse Thrash with Melodic Death Metal and large servings of groove is what makes Divine Chaos a band whose mere name piques the interest. There are cleans and throat-burning, roaring passages on the likes of Where Gods Are Last In Line, the cleans bringing a melodious element to the carnage. 

    At times, there is more of a Thrash style to the band, but they retain a blend of melody with that driving riff-heavy fire. The New Reality is one of the more accessible tracks here, whilst the vocals soar over Without A Trace and the ferocious drumming of Mariusz Marecki.

    You can feel the effort that Divine Chaos has invested here. They are clearly determined to remind us all that they are back, and these songs should be hugely impressive live.

    Savage but with a driving current that gets the head nodding and the urge to bounce around, tracks like Blood Of The Earth draw on modern-day Carcass mixed with Evile in its power and punishing visceral delivery.

    This Coming Storm is one of the standout tracks. Exceptionally fast in tempo, it has a glorious riff that repeats throughout the song, and an impactful finish that almost slams your head into the wall.

    Finishing with the snarling nastiness of Shadows Of The Wasteland, which once more combines all the elements of Divine Chaos in a fireball of a track, Hate Reactor reminds you that on their day, Divine Chaos are frighteningly good.

    Whether this album will be enough to reclaim some of the previous anticipation is open to debate, but it is certainly good to have the Berkshire outfit back in the world of Metal.
