A man consumed by other people’s ambitions stands at the centre of Consecration, the second album from Saint Petersburg post-black metal band SOMN. Due on November 20, 2026, through AOP Records, the four-track release examines blind obedience, senseless bloodshed and the gradual destruction of personal identity. The opening track, “The Loyal Hand,” is available now. […]

Over the summer, the National frontman Matt Berninger released the magnificently titled new solo track “Martini Me Fatso.” Though arriving in the long tail of last year’s excellent Get Sunk, it seemed to exist outside of the frame of the album cycle, and now we know it was part of a new EP that seems like it will stand as a capstone on this era. Released by surprise today, Type It Up includes “Martini Me Fatso,” the new originals “Type It Up” and “Ask For Water,” and the previously released covers of New Order’s “Blue Monday” and the Velvet Underground’s “Who Loves The Sun.”

Metallurg Music Compilation 8.1 + digital Magazine No8 by Metallurg Music

Rock titans Graveyard have officially unleashed their incendiary new single, “Tongue Tied”, available today on all digital platforms alongside an energetic official music video. The track serves as a driving second preview of their highly anticipated seventh studio album, Fever, arriving October 9th worldwide via Nuclear Blast Records.

Shaking off the gloomier, introverted atmosphere of 2023’s album Six, “Tongue Tied” shifts the band into high gear. Built on an up-tempo momentum and a relentless, hard-hitting groove, the track stands out as one of the most direct and urgent songs in the band’s catalog. Drenched in thick fuzz and fueled by a blistering rhythm section, Graveyard captures an uncompromising, high-velocity energy without sacrificing a drop of their signature, blues-soaked soul.

To visually capture the track’s breakneck drive, the band enlisted acclaimed Swedish director Emil Klinta, whose visual palette has previously shaped iconic videos for Ghost and The Hellacopters. Klinta’s video mirrors the song’s electric pace, matching performance-driven intensity with a sleek, cinematic rock-and-roll edge.

Mixed by Pelle Gunnerfeldt—widely renowned for capturing the ferocious live energy of bands like The Hives, Refused, and Viagra Boys—and mastered by Robin Schmidt at 24-96 Mastering, “Tongue Tied” displays the raw, unvarnished power at the heart of the upcoming album.

Fever is available for pre-order here.

Accompanying the record’s bold visual identity created by Dutch artist Maarten Donders, Fever marks a triumphant return to form for the two-time Swedish chart-toppers. Following the album’s release on October 9th, Graveyard will launch a co-headlining Scandinavian tour alongside Blues Pills to celebrate the release, ahead of extensive European and UK tours throughout 2027.

London grime giant Skepta has taken his career to some unexpected places lately. He released an extremely cool collaborative EP with the superstar DJ Fred again.. last year, and then he took steps to become a superstar DJ himself. Earlier this year Skepta started up spinning house records at Más Tiempo, his DJ residency at Hï Ibiza’s Club Room, and he released an EDM EP to go along with it. Now, Skepta’s back to rapping on a new single, but it’s got its own strange clubby energy.

Including a newly remastered box set featuring bonus tracks, unreleased demos and more.

Papa Roach has another monster hit on its hands. “See U In Hell,” the band’s single from the Devil May Cry animated series on Netflix, has now crossed 100 million streams since dropping in May — putting it ahead of even the band’s biggest recent chart-toppers. The track features Indian rapper Hanumankind, who broke through globally in 2024 with “Big Dogs” (597 million Spotify streams) and has since played Coachella and other major festival stages.

“We are blown away by the reception from audiences around the world. Performing the song in Europe this summer was amazing,” said Papa Roach frontman Jacoby Shaddix. “We were proud to bring this era of The Devil May Cry to life, and to reach fans in the gaming and anime spaces. They’re all in the P Roach universe now, and it’s showing.”

The momentum on stage matches the momentum on the charts. Papa Roach‘s 2025 Rise Of The Roach world tour rolls into 2026 having already played to 750,000 fans, and the band returns to Glasgow on Nov. 1 for the first time in nine years as part of a 22-city run. The itinerary is stacked with long-overdue stops, including Dublin, a sold-out Cardiff date, debut shows in Rotterdam, Bergamo and Katowice, a return to Cologne after 12 years, and a first-ever gig in Lyon.

“These are the biggest headline shows of our career, and some places we’ve never been,” Shaddix continued. “We’ll leave an exclamation point on these cities, that’s for sure.”

French support acts Landmvrks and Sleep Theory will join the run, which sees €1 (or £1 in the UK) from every ticket going toward local suicide prevention and mental health charities.

The tour keeps Papa Roach‘s reputation intact as one of rock’s most relentless live acts, still pushing hard both on stage and off with sets built around fan favorites and nonstop energy.

A two-time Grammy nominee and platinum-selling pioneer of alternative hard rock, Papa Roach marked the 25th anniversary of its breakthrough album Infest in 2025. Mental health advocacy has long been part of the band’s identity, dating back to the iconic Last Resort and continuing through the more recent collaboration with Carrie Underwood on “Leave A Light On (Talk Away The Dark),” which pulled in over $500,000 for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention while also supporting CALM in the UK.

Eleven studio albums deep, Papa Roach shows no signs of slowing, most recently with Ego Trip on its own New Noize Records. The band’s catalog has topped one billion global streams overall, with Ego Trip alone producing four No. 1 singles and pushing the band’s career tally to 28 Top 10 hits and 15 No. 1s across the Rock, Alternative and Hot AC charts.

After sold-out arena runs across Europe and North America in 2025, Papa Roach took the show to Asia and Australia this spring, hit European festivals in June, and heads into a UK tour in November 2026. “Wake Up Calling” and “See U In Hell” are both out now everywhere.
