  • Tedeschi Trucks Band announces “The Garden Party” concert film

    The Tedeschi Trucks Band has announced the release of a new feature film titled The Garden Party. The film documents the band’s sold-out, headlining debut performance at Madison Square Garden on September 29, 2023.

    Directed by GRAMMY-nominated filmmaker John McDermott, the project captures the full scope of the band’s historic New York performance. McDermott previously directed projects including Music, Money, Madness…Jimi Hendrix In Maui and Eric Clapton & Steve Winwood Live at Madison Square Garden. The film was co-produced by BAFTA Award-winning producer George Scott alongside Derek Trucks, Susan Tedeschi and McDermott.

    The Garden Party features footage from the Madison Square Garden concert interspersed with commentary from Trucks and Tedeschi. The performance included appearances from special guests Trey Anastasio, Norah Jones and Lukas Nelson. The show was praised as a “two-and-a-half-hour musical journey,” highlighting what many consider one of the most memorable performances in the band’s career.

    “For both of us, going from Manny’s Car Wash to Madison Square Garden has been pretty surreal,” exclaims Trucks.

    “This performance at Madison Square Garden showcases just how special and unique the Tedeschi Trucks Band is,” adds McDermott. “I have long wanted to create a film like this so that people everywhere can see how extraordinary this band is.”

    The film will premiere at a special screening event at Brooklyn Bowl in New York on Sunday, March 22. The event takes place during the band’s 10-night residency at the Beacon Theatre, which runs March 10 through March 28.

    The screening begins at 1 p.m. and will feature full concert sound. Tickets are $10 for adults, while admission is free for children under 16. Proceeds from ticket sales will benefit the nonprofit HeadCount.

    Following the Brooklyn premiere, another screening is scheduled for May 1 at the Regent Theater in Arlington, Massachusetts, near Tedeschi’s hometown of Boston. Additional screenings in select cities are planned later this spring.

    The film announcement arrives just ahead of the release of the band’s upcoming album Future Soul, which is set to arrive March 20 via Fantasy Records. The album marks the band’s sixth studio release and was produced by Mike Elizondo, whose credits include work with Twenty One Pilots, Eminem, Dr. Dre and Carrie Underwood. Derek Trucks co-produced the record.

    The 11-track album draws from a wide range of influences including funk, rock and roll, blues, soul and punk. The band has already shared the singles “I Got You” and “Who Am I” ahead of the album’s release.

    To support the new album, Tedeschi Trucks Band will launch their Future Soul 2026 Tour beginning April 14. The Live Nation-produced tour will run through late October with stops across North America.

    Led by Susan Tedeschi and Derek Trucks, Tedeschi Trucks Band has become one of the most celebrated touring acts in contemporary roots music. The 12-piece ensemble includes Mike Mattison (guitar, vocals), Gabe Dixon (keys, vocals), Brandon Boone (bass), Tyler “Falcon” Greenwell (drums, percussion), Isaac Eady (drums, percussion), Mark Rivers (vocals, percussion), Alecia Chakour (vocals, percussion), Kebbi Williams (saxophone), Emmanuel Echem (trumpet) and Elizabeth Lea (trombone).

    The group’s debut album Revelator won the 2012 GRAMMY Award for Best Blues Album. Their 2018 release Live From the Fox Oakland was nominated for Best Contemporary Blues Album.

    Since forming in 2010, Tedeschi Trucks Band has received multiple Americana Music Honors & Awards nominations and has won Band of the Year at the Blues Music Awards four times. The group has sold out Madison Square Garden and performed more than 20 nights at Red Rocks Amphitheatre.

    In recent years, Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi have also appeared at major music events, including the Kennedy Center Honors in 2024, where they performed in tribute to Bonnie Raitt and the Grateful Dead. The full band also performed at the 2025 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony honoring Joe Cocker, joined by an all-star lineup that included Nathaniel Rateliff, Teddy Swims, Cyndi Lauper, Bryan Adams and Chris Robinson.

  • Immolation Release New Single “Attrition”

    immolation_band2026

    Earlier today, New York death metal outfit Immolation released their most recent single “Attrition” off their forthcoming album Descent.

    Set for release on April 10, Descent boasts 10 new tracks, including today’s drop and the previous single “Adversary.” Rather than try to go into the track itself, I’m gonna let the band share their thoughts on “Attrition”:

    “We are excited to release, ‘Attrition’, another new track from our upcoming album, Decent. This song is a dark, powerful heavy track with plenty of intensity. “Attrition” has a dismal, hopeless atmosphere…as it focuses on the senseless wars and battles for territory that mankind seems to constantly repeat, no matter what the cost. The drum work by Steve Shalaty is a key component in this song as it emphasizes the overall emotion of the track, with not only a militant feel, but unique rhythmic cymbal work and other twists that bring the musical parts to life. ‘Attrition’ is a good example of the diverse nature of Descent. A catchy, yet explosive track with all the IMMOLATION elements. We hope you enjoy ‘Attrition’!”

    Descent will be released on April 10 via Nuclear Blast Records, but you can preorder your copy today.

  • Mötley Crüe’s Nikki Sixx Stands By His Man and Defends Vince Neil Against Twitter Troll

    Mötley Crüe

    An interaction between Mötley Crüe bassist Nikki Sixx and some random person on Twitter is making the rounds online and I know what you’re thinking. Metal Sucks, how are you going to use this to make fun of that band yet again? The answer is we’re not. Because it was a reasonable response and a lesson in standing up for your friends. Even when your friend’s performances in recent years have been… rough, to say the least…

    This past Saturday, some dude on Twitter with the incredibly legible username dvk955568117 called out Sixx, telling him he should get on Neil’s ass for not being able to put it together on stage. And that’s taking it lightly, saying he should “get Vince jogging or some Ozempic.” He then ended his carefully thought out missive with “Fat shit can’t sign”, which I think he meant sing, but I don’t think the guy’s spending a whole lot of time checking his tweets for spelling errors.

    Naturally, Sixx took offense to that. Remember, he’s been in a band with Neil for decades now. They’ve known each other forever, know their wives (and ex-wives) and kids. How could you think he’s going to respond with anything other than a big “fuck you” to some rando on the internet?

    Well, the next day Sixx shot back:

    “What an embarrassing thing to post to me about my singer who’s been with me for 45 years. No matter what you think he’s my brother and you can go suck a dick.”

    Ka-pow. Now, if there’s one band we at MetalSucks loves to harp on, it’s Mötley Crüe. Specifically, we love ragging on Vince Neil and his subpar performances in recent years, as he ages and fails to maintain the kind of fitness you’d need for the kind of show that band wants to put on. Oh and that misheard lyrics video where the lyrics are changed to things like “Big Mac — $1.03”? Fucking priceless. Hell, it’s gotten to the point that they blocked us on socials.

    But it’s kinda become a little out of fashion to harp on Neil and his fitness. The dude had a stroke around Christmas 2024 and that forced the band to cancel their 2025 Las Vegas residency at Dolby Live at Park MGM. According to Neil, he suffered multiple strokes that ultimately led to the big one that December day, during which he was completely unable to get out of bed that morning.

    If there’s anything to take out of this, it’s that Neil’s already doing that shit. He’s apparently been doing physical therapy and training to try to get back on stage. Make fun of the guy for fucking up his lyrics. Make fun of the guy for looking like an old doofus on stage when he could have just stayed retired and enjoyed the good life. Fat shaming to his bassist and long-time bandmate? Cringe, bro.

    As it stands, Mötley Crüe has an upcoming ‘The Return of Carnival Of Sins Tour’ slated to start this July. It’s a 20th anniversary celebration of both the 2005-06 Carnival Of Sins tour and the band’s 45th anniversary.
