(hennemusic) Oasis is streaming audio of "Slide Away" from the opening night of its "Live '25" tour in Cardiff, Wales on July 4. The track from 1994's "Definitely Maybe" was featured at the city's Principality Stadium, which hosted the first performance by the Gallagher brothers in 16 years.
The band delivered a 23-song set during the first of two shows in Cardiff, opening with "Hello" and closing with "Champagne Supernova" - both from 1995's "(What's The Story) Morning Glory?" (continue)
SoCal's emerging indie rock trio Sun Room crashes into the spotlight with the release of their 6-track EP RITUAL OF CHAOS that finds the band fully leaning into their perfectly unpolished, subgenre-blending sound. Produced by Jarvis Taveniere (Allah-Las, The Avalanches, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard), longtime collaborator Jonny Bell (The Gun Club, Chicano Batman) and David Greenbaum (Beck, Gorillaz, Paul McCartney), RITUAL OF CHAOS elevates Sun Room's garage-meets-surf rock sonics while staying true to their carefree, DIY roots.
Of recording the EP, frontman Luke Asgian shared: "RITUAL OF CHAOS was mostly recorded live in the room with each other, just like how we play it when jamming in the garage and at our shows. In the process of making this EP, I really noticed that's what is missing in music these days - the little mistakes that you get when a band tracks all together and the cohesive chaos that is a live rock and roll band playing together."

Sean Griffin, frontman of Gaelic punk cult favorites The Ruffians, just released his debut solo single "People Are Mad", and to celebrate we asked him to tell us about the track. Here is the story:
People are mad started out of a conversation with a friend. I was telling him about a song I had just wrote and texted him "People are Mad" in the course of our conversation. He said great title for a song, and I sat down and wrote it. (continue)
mgk returns with his new single, "vampire diaries." The guitar driven track is produced by longtime collaborator and friend Travis Barker. 'vampire diaries' is the follow up to his lead summer smash "cliche." The video, directed by Sam Cahill, is set in a museum and finds the artist dancing through exhibits after dark.

On the heels of their show-stopping performance of Ozzy Osbourne's "Perry Mason" at his final show over the weekend, Halestorm today dropped "Rain Your Blood On Me," a heavy siren call starting with a thumping dirge beat and erupting into Arejay Hale's explosive drum fills, guitarist Joe Hottinger's lightning fast guitar riffs, and Lzzy Hale's astronomical vocal harmonies, all tethered to earth by Josh Smith's dark bass grooves.
"Rain Your Blood On Me" follows "Darkness Always Wins" and title track "Everest" as the third song revealed from the GRAMMY Award winning hard rock band's album out August 8 via Atlantic Records. "Darkness Always Wins" is steadily climbing the Active Rock chart, now entering the top 15. (continue)
All Time Low have premiered a music vidoe for their new single "The Weather". The track comes from their forthcoming album "Everyone's Talking", which will be released on October 17th.
MUSES PR sent over the details: The song is a Ramones-toasting pop-rock missile, and one which Gaskarth describes as "a cynical but playful concept" about running into a close former friend or partner and, rather than reminiscing about the heavy times spent together, instead BS'ing about trivial matters. (continue)
The twentieth anniversary deluxe reissue of Minus the Bear's seminal 2005 album Menos el Oso is due August 22, 2025 via Suicide Squeeze Records, and today they're excited to share for the first time "The Pig War (Demo)," an early version of what would become one of the most emotionally evocative, nostalgia-tinged cuts on the record.
Speaking on the song, the band's vocalist Jake Snider says "The music for the song had a melancholy, rolling feel leading me to nostalgic memories of being on Wescott Bay on San Juan Island, a few hours trip north of Seattle. The lyrics are more an impression of the place than a narrative; a longing for the simplicity of being there. It's cool to hear the contrast between the rougher edges of the demo against the album track's more polished flow." (continue)
Beartooth - Caleb Shomo, vocals; Zach Huston, guitars; Will Deely, guitars; Oshie Bichar, bass; and Connor Denis, drums - made their hometown arena debut with an absolutely monumental show at The Schottenstein Center in Columbus, Ohio on January 18, 2025.
It was pyrotechnic spectacle and one of the most memorable shows of the band's career thus far. The show happened hot on the heels of their most successful tour to date - spanning 60+ shows across North America and over 100k tickets sold - and after the release of their chart-topping fifth album The Surface, which earned the band their first pair of #1 singles at U.S. Active Rock radio ("Might Love Myself" + "I Was Alive").

Goldfinger released a high-energy pop-punk track "Freaking Out a Bit" featuring blink-182 frontman Mark Hoppus. Out now via Big Noise, the summer anthem explores themes of anxiety, digital-age burnout, and nostalgia delivered with a perfect blend of Goldfinger and blink-182's signature sounds.
Frontman of Goldfinger, John Feldmann shared his thoughts on the track: "Freaking Out a Bit is a song I wrote with Travis Barker and Mark Hoppus... I had the concept for a song and a chorus, and they came in and brought it to life! Mark wrote the best verses, and Travis turned the beat around in the bridge, which gave it a whole new life of its own. Those guys are some of my best friends and I love them. So grateful I got to do this song with them I'm so glad it's finally coming out!" (continue)
Currently trekking across the country on their Onward & Upward Summer Tour, Primus delivered an unforgettable performance last night at Red Rocks Amphitheatre with a surprise tribute to their fan-favorite Brown Album.
After opening with "Harold of the Rocks" and "Groundhog's Day," frontman Les Claypool addressed the crowd with a grin: "We decided this afternoon to do something you're really going to love-or you're really going to hate. We're going to play 7 songs off the Brown Album." He and guitarist Larry LaLonde then officially dubbed the iconic venue "Brown Rocks" for the remainder of the evening. (continue)

(hennemusic) Metallica performed its 1991 classic, "Nothing Else Matters", during a June 20 show in Santa Clara, CA, and the band are sharing video from the event.

Nirvana were essentially the duo of Irishman Patrick Campbell-Lyons and Greek Alex Spyropoulos - two immigrants who, following a chance meeting during the summer of 1966, became an integral part of the very fabric that was Swinging London.
Crafting a visionary sound that moved beyond the confines of 1960s pop into baroque, psych and proto-Prog territory, Nirvana's story remains a wonderful tale of artistic ambition (continue)
