  • Oasis Share Trailer For Reunion Documentary Don’t Look Back In Anger

    One of the best music documentaries in recent history is Oasis: Supersonic, a dizzy and euphoric chronicle of Oasis’ rise from wayward Manchester youth to the highest heights of global rock stardom. It ended with the band’s insanely huge 1996 shows at Knebworth and with the band members conceding that they should’ve just ended things there. Instead, Oasis ended things messily in 2009, and then they got back together for a triumphant global stadium tour last year. Now, we’re about to get another Oasis documentary out of it.

  • Fervence: Texas Progressive Metalcore Outfit to Release “Constructs” Full-Length October 16th on Metal Blade Records

    – August 18th, 2026 –

    New Video / Single Now Playing + Pre-Orders Available

    Watch/stream FERVENCE’s “Zenith” HERE

    Texas-based progressive metalcore outfit and recent Metal Blade Records signees FERVENCE will release their Constructs full-length October 16th.

    Inspired by bands like Deftones, Architects, and Silent Planet, the FERVENCE sound is an ethereal blend of harsh and lush, navigating between moments of sheer aggression and poignant vulnerability. Formed in 2019 in Reno, Nevada as guitarist Trent Odneal’s solo project, FERVENCE released its debut full-length, Ghost, in 2020. The recording was called an “emotionally laden and hard-hitting record that contemplates what it is to be human.”

    The band reemerged in 2023 with vocalist Stevie B. at the helm, bringing her unique brand of aggression to the project. FERVENCE toured the West Coast, continuing to build their local following in Reno opening for the likes of Otep, Left To Suffer, and Gideon, and releasing four singles that would make up their second offering, an EP titled Realm//One which was praised for “breaking so many rules in metal.“

    On Constructs, the quintet’s Metal Blade debut, FERVENCE delivers eleven dynamic songs that explore, both musically and lyrically, deeply personal experiences surrounding life, death, emotion, and relationships.Now based in Austin, Texas, the band spent 2025 crafting their most fully realized songs to date. Writing post-Ghost, Odneal made a conscious effort to leave more space for the vocals to explore melodies and focused on composition, mood, song structure, and building up to big choruses.

    Produced by Odneal and guitarist Austin Bentley and mixed and mastered by Zack Ohren, Constructs features callbacks to the Ghost album, both inconspicuous and conspicuous. “As we have grown together and individually, so have our views on existence and the concepts discussed. Constructs,” Odneal explains, “is a refinement of our ability to convey some of these thoughts in a more generally relatable way, while also adding a bit more insight on other tangential topics.”

    Songs like lead single, “Zenith,” address the emotions around prolonged health struggles, and feeling like “being a prisoner in your own body.”

    Stevie further elaborates, “The lyrics were inspired by the feelings of hopelessness and depression that come with prolonged health struggles. Dealing with health challenges in your own life, seeing people you love struggle, and just feeling like there is no way out and nothing will ever get better.“

    Constructs features 3D artwork by Billelis which captures lyrical themes, while standing on its own as an iconic work of art. “The idea that our identities, relationships, ambitions, and experiences, though beautiful, are ultimately constructs that eventually collapse was something we wanted reflected in the imagery itself,” notes Bentley. “Like the songs themselves, the artwork brings an ominous and almost mythological quality to bear.“

    FERVENCE‘s Constructs will be released on CD and digital formats as well as vinyl in the following color variants:

    The song opens with a highly atmospheric piano. Soon after, the drums and distorted guitars join in, providing a rush of energy. The guitar solo brilliantly showcases technical skill and melodic flair. Following this, the music recedes, creating space for the vocals.

    The bridge introduces a shift in rhythm, adding a distinctive flair. Once again, the track pulls back, stripping down to just the voice and piano, creating an intimate moment. This arrangement builds tension, leading to a satisfying conclusion.

    The overall theme of the song revolves around unity. It conveys a profound message that humanity originates from a shared source, emphasizing that divisions are unnecessary. The reminder that we are all made from the same cosmic matter highlights our interconnectedness.

The metallic guitar sounds pair fluidly with the robust drumming, while the layers of vocal harmonies add richness.

    (written by Islander) Our suspicion is that anyone would have great difficulty finding any adult anywhere in the world who thinks things are just swell.

    Barndancer Open Season Review

    The song begins with an urgent rhythm that envelops the listener completely. Its sound possesses a unique quality, reminiscent of an 80s VHS tape. The audio has a slightly muffled quality, evoking a sense of nostalgia and intensity. The voice enters the mix with fantastic delicacy, exhibiting a high and solid timbre that reaches deep into the listener’s soul.

    Barndancer Open Season

    Lyrically, the song explores moments of vulnerability. It describes instances when one lets go of another person, breaking down personal barriers and secrets. However, this trust ultimately faces betrayal, leading to a realization of loneliness. The individual reflects on how they have shared their vulnerabilities with someone who no longer cares.

    This introspective piece shows that the artist is unafraid to take risks and address strong emotions. It resonates with many, as it portrays feelings of betrayal and the aftermath of lost trust. The lyrics are relatable, encapsulating personal experiences that many listeners may have encountered themselves.

    Open Season – Sound and Atmosphere

    Musically, this track leans into the alternative genre, providing a nostalgic sound. The instrumentation complements the emotional weight of the lyrics without overwhelming them.

    Barndancer’s delivery is solid; each note is infused with sincerity. The lyrical vulnerability is mirrored in the dynamic arrangement of the song. There is a perfect balance between the driving beat and the softer vocal lines. This contrast enhances the emotional impact without sacrificing musicality.

    Open Season – Performance and Production

    As the track progresses, it remains engaging, with each section introducing subtle changes that keep the listener invested. This evolution in sound reflects the song’s narrative, which speaks of growth and realization. The pacing is well-structured; it builds tension before releasing it in moments of lyrical intensity.

    The single “Open Season” emerges as an alternative track worthy of attention. Its unique sound and emotional depth make it a strong offering from Barndancer. The song not only entertains but invites listeners to reflect on their own experiences.

    “Open Season” succeeds in its ambition as an introspective piece that encourages vulnerability and growth. It speaks to the heart through relatable themes and a well-executed musical style. For those seeking music that resonates with genuine emotional experiences, this track comes highly recommended.

  • NOIA – “As Per My Last Email”

    “As per my last email” is just an absolute nightmare phrase, a thing that you hate to see. It’s also the title of NOIA’s new single, a skittering, thumping, glitched-out avant-club track about the neverending always-online hell of office-job life in our corroded present. With digital effects chopping her voice into shards, NOIA repeats a few phrases again and again: “As per my last email, I haven’t been able to focus,” “I’m available all night, all day, every day.”
