Black Veil Brides have announced the details of their new full-length album, their first since 2021’s ‘The Phantom Tomorrow’.

The album will be called ‘Vindicate’ and will be released on May 08 via Spinefarm Records. It was produced by the band’s own Jake Pitts and Andy Biersack and mixed by the one and only Zakk Cervini.

Andy had this to say about what the album represents, explaining, “This record is rooted in the feelings of revenge and vindication. These are emotions that can either push us forward or hold us back. There’s a duality to them. They can fuel growth, drive ambition, and help us rise above what’s tried to break us, but they can also become destructive if we let them consume us.

“Each song explores a different side of that struggle. Sometimes it’s about getting even with someone else, sometimes it’s about confronting ourselves and our past, our pain, or the things that were done to us. At its core, though, this album is about resilience.

“It’s for anyone who’s ever had their dreams doubted or their fire challenged by people who couldn’t see their vision. We’re all born with that spark. The world will try to take that away at times, but this record is about holding onto it, fighting back, and turning those struggles into something powerful.”

The artwork looks like this:

Whilst the full tracklisting is more like this:

1. Invocation To The Muse
2. Vindicate
3. Certainty
4. Bleeders
5. Hallelujah
6. Cut
7. Alive
8. Purgator
9. Revenger
10. Sorrow
11. Grace
12. Ave Maria
13. Woe & Pain
14. Eschaton


To go along with the announcement, and joining ‘Certainty’, ‘Hallelujah’ and ‘Bleeders’ as being out in the world, the band have also shared the title track.

From the calliope introduction to the driving riffs and metalcore hooks, all held together by a sensational classic-rock chorus, it is a savage addition to the album.

It’s wicked, wild and wonderfully over the top. Everything you could ever want from the band.

You can pick up a Rock Sound-exclusive variant of ‘Vindicate’ on gold nugget vinyl right now from right here. Limited to just 200 units worldwide, so it’s a rare one.

Earlier today, Norwegian avant-garde black metal/electronic outfit Ulver released a surprising remixed version of their track “Hollywood Babylon” that features the highly atmospheric and distinctive sound of Gazelle Twin (aka Elizabeth Bernholz). So if you know the track from Ulver’s 2024 album Liminal Animals, you may want to check this new variant out.

Created to sort of play in both artists’ musical worlds, “Hollywood Babylon (Gazelle Twin Remix)” leans into the experimental side of things. This comes just a few weeks after the band’s latest album Neverland finally got its physical release on February 27.

Speaking of this new version of the track, Ulver mastermind Kristoffer Rygg said they were excited to see what Bernholz would be able to do with it.

“We became instant fans of Gazelle Twin when we both played at Austria’s Donau Festival in 2017, and we are thrilled to have Elizabeth lend her unique vision and voice to ‘Hollywood Babylon’. Her approach captures the song’s essence while adding new and different layers of emotional depth and contemporary resonance.”

Likewize, Bernholz said she enjoyed working on the project, stating that she was excited to get her own darker side of things played into the track.

“I have really enjoyed working on ‘Hollywood Babylon’ – it is such a great song. I love the vibe, chord sequences, vocals and lyrics, which feel ever more prescient. I wanted to bring all those things to the foreground, plus add a bit of GT darkness and my voice.”

You can check out the remixed version of “Hollywood Babylon” below. Neverland is available now wherever you get your music.

Extreme prog metal one-man band Annihilus Mundi return with their newest single and music video “Absolute Terror.” Check out the video below.

The track features an intense vocal performance from Noah Magnelli, delivering the song’s conceptual narrative with visceral energy, as well as a blistering guest guitar solo from Chris Jones of Aether Realm.

“Lyrically, ‘Absolute Terror’ draws inspiration from the metaphysical Absolute Terror Field (AT Field) concept from Hideaki Anno’s landmark anime Neon Genesis Evangelion,” Daniel Saillant, the man behind the band, explains. “In the series, the AT Field appears as a protective barrier used by the EVA units against the Angels, but it also represents a deeper philosophical idea: the emotional walls humans construct out of fear that prevent genuine connection with one another.

“The song explores the psychological struggles of two of the anime’s central characters, Shinji Ikari and Asuka Langley-Soryu. The first verse reflects Shinji’s desperate longing for approval from his emotionally distant father, while the second delves into Asuka’s trauma after witnessing her mother’s suicide. Through the chorus and final verses, the song expands on the philosophical meaning of the AT Field, portraying fear itself as the invisible barrier separating individuals from meaningful human connection.”

Watch/stream “Master To The Slave” HERE

Danish metallers GRADIENCE are pleased to drop their new single and companion video for “Master To The Slave.” The track is taken from the band’s forthcoming new full-length, set for release on their new label home of Metal Blade Records later this year.

The usually clear-cut boundary between apocalyptic, sludgy blackened death metal and dark urban trap-rap is thrillingly pulverized by GRADIENCE. Lines of musical convention are further blurred by disarmingly emotive and intimate vocal lines, and a vibrant sound picture heaving with glacial synths and hypnotic sonic details. At first it might daunt and confuse those who like their boundaries clear-cut, but at the heart of GRADIENCE‘s brash and radical new sound is an authentic and heartwarming new friendship. In 2022, guitarist Jakob Harris and vocalist Gavin Mistry struck up an immediate creative rapport at a Copenhagen show for local deathcore heroes Cabal. Although from very different backgrounds – Jakob a visual artist and musician playing in “a popcore band,” Gavin is a main player “in different hip-hop constellations” – they quickly found common ground in an area both were keen to explore.

“It just feels completely natural for us to mix everything,” notes Harris. “We’re really up for whatever label people want to put on us. We’ve actually found it difficult for ourselves to narrow it down Harris but we like to think of ourselves as just being a metal band. We’ve used the description ‘blackened rap metal’ just to catch people’s attention. But to me, rap is just a tool we use to convey an emotion or feel, just like we use screams and melody. We’ve found different styles of rap and singing that suit Gavin really well, and when we’re writing vocals for a song, we’re only thinking about what would be the best fit with the energy and vibe. For us, there needs to be an emotional connection in order for heavy music to resonate with the listener on a deeper level.”

Harris comments further on the band’s new single, “The song is about Gavin’s struggle with managing his self-destructiveness and we wanted the video to feel like a physical manifestation of Gavin’s internal war. The moment in the music video where the hangman’s noose becomes a crown of rope is a deliberate visual metaphor of Gavin gaining the upper hand of what could potentially destroy him.“

(written by Islander) Death metal does not have to be interesting, innovative, or even moderately intelligent to be enjoyable. We all know this and most of us will freely admit it. In fact, sometimes it’s at its most enjoyable when its dumber than a box of rocks. And conversely, sometimes it can become so busy, […]
