The titans of the Rust Belt are back to reclaim their throne in the shadows. Motionless In White has officially announced the release of their seventh full-length studio album, Decades, set to drop on July 17 via Roadrunner Records. To celebrate the announcement, the band has unleashed a blistering new single titled “Playing God,” featuring a massive guest appearance by Slipknot and Stone Sour frontman Corey Taylor.
The centerpiece of the Decades reveal is the high-octane collaboration with Corey Taylor. Tackling the modern plague of social media division, “Playing God” is an observational commentary on the negativity and lies that dominate the digital landscape.
“I thought social media was supposed to be a mechanism to connect, but all it does is divide,” says Chris Motionless. The track sees the band returning to their most aggressive roots, amplified by Taylor’s unmistakable grit. Recorded between upstate New York and Los Angeles with producers Drew Fulk and Justin “JD” deBlieck, the track—and the album at large—aims to synthesize the band’s past, present, and future into a singular, theatrical entity.
For a band that has outlasted two decades of industry shifts and personal obstacles, Decades serves as a testament to their DIY work ethic. Chris Motionless insists that while the universe of the band continues to expand, they will never abandon the heartfelt, emotional, and heavy core that defined them.
“This band has not only lasted two decades, but we’ve also outlasted all of the obstacles we’ve faced,” Chris observes. “Decades is definitely heavier than some of our past albums. Our current world bred more aggressive energy, anger, and resistance.”
Following a massive arena run with Bring Me The Horizon—which included a career-defining stop at Madison Square Garden—Motionless In White is gearing up for “The Sweat And Blood Tour.”
The North American trek kicks off July 14 in Bridgeport, CT, and features a landmark headlining date at the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Joining them for the ride are Lorna Shore, Fit For A King, and Static Dress, making it one of the most anticipated heavy tours of the 2026 summer season.
When is the new Motionless In White album coming out? Decades is scheduled for global release on July 17, 2026, through Roadrunner Records.
Who is featured on the new Motionless In White song “Playing God”? The song features guest vocals from Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor.
Who is touring with Motionless In White this summer? The “Sweat And Blood Tour” features support from Lorna Shore, Fit For A King, and Static Dress.
Formed in 2004 in Scranton, Pennsylvania, Motionless In White has become a leading force in alternative metal. Blending gothic aesthetics with industrial, metalcore, and electronic elements, the band has cultivated a massive global following known as the “Cyber-Goths” and “Creatures.” With multiple chart-topping albums and platinum certifications, they remain one of the most visually and sonically ambitious bands in the genre.

DragonForce have announced Alissa White-Gluz as the band’s new vocalist, marking the beginning of a major new era for the Extreme Power Metal pioneers. You can see Alissa teasing Through The Fire And Flames on Instagram.
The announcement arrives as DragonForce celebrate the 20th anniversary of their breakthrough album Inhuman Rampage, which featured the global anthem Through The Fire And Flames. The band will debut their new line-up live at Welcome To Rockville on Saturday and Sonic Temple festival on Sunday.
Guitarist Herman Li described the addition of White-Gluz as an expansion of everything the band has built over the last two decades.
“Alissa joining the band is an expansion of everything we’ve done up to this point,” Herman Li said. “Twenty years is a long time to do anything, let alone survive the music industry and still be so inspired to continue doing what we love.
“Together we will honour what made Inhuman Rampage matter, while showing people exactly where we’re going next. Having Alissa in the room changes everything. She doesn’t just sing, she makes all aspects of our music better, and she sounds incredible live.
“I can’t wait for the fans to see her and hear what we have been working on.”
White-Gluz, known for her work with Arch Enemy, The Agonist and Kamelot, said she was excited to showcase every aspect of her vocal ability within DragonForce’s technically demanding material.
“I am beyond excited to be bringing such iconic music to life with these amazingly skilled musicians in such a fun and inspiring environment,” Alissa White-Gluz said. “It feels great to showcase all the colours of my voice and utilise all my singing styles in technically challenging, deeply energising, highly addictive songs.
“I am so thankful for the amazing support I have been lucky enough to receive from the Metal world over this wild career I’ve built. I want to keep pushing my boundaries and delivering exceptional music and live experiences to the fans that I cherish so much.”
DragonForce also confirmed that a new studio album is currently in development, alongside extensive touring plans throughout 2026.

Iceage’s new album For Love Of Grace & The Hereafter is coming this month. So far the Danish post-punk band have shared the singles “Star” and “Ember,” two songs that indicated they’d be going towards a more smoothed-out sound. Today’s new single “The Weak,” however, gets a little rowdier with some rollicking drums, freewheeling guitar riffs, and…
