With their latest single "Everything" moving up the Active Rock radio charts and just three days until their new album is available worldwide, GRAMMY Award-nominated Sevendust is releasing another piece of music from Truth Killer - the band's 14th studio album and first via Napalm Records.
"Superficial Drug" is an introspective rocker that showcases the band's dynamic approach to melody - something that has always been the backbone of Sevendust's signature sound. The band - Lajon Witherspoon, Clint Lowery, John Connolly, Vince Hornsby and Morgan Rose - reunited with director J.T. Ibanez (P.O.D., Loveless, Orianthi) for the third time to create visuals to support Truth Killer. The video features the band performing as cloaked figures representing "superficial drugs" try and overtake the band. (continue)

Leatherwolf have announced the release of their latest video and single, 'Thunder (MMXXII)', in support of the forthcoming 'Kill The Hunted' vinyl edition. A powerful remake of their 1989 'Street Ready' classic, 'Thunder (MMXXII)' will be available on all major digital platforms, including the group's Bandcamp on July 25, with the vinyl set for an August 18 release, just ahead of the band's August 23 headline show at the Whisky A Go-Go in West Hollywood CA.
"'Thunder' has always been a strong fan favorite and a song that's been a mainstay in our setlist over the years", says drummer/founding member, Dean Roberts. "Once we started putting together the 'Kill The Hunted' album, we knew we'd likely need an extra track or two for different editions. That's when the idea arose to re-record a few of the old songs, including 'Thunder', with the new band. You know, as much as I like the original versions, I was always curious what they would sound like with today's sonic possibilities. And I think the result speaks for itself - the new 'Thunder' is sounding so much more metal! Keith (Adamiak) is killing it on vocals and giving it that extra edge, Rob (Math) is on fire, and Joel (Hoekstra) put down an amazing guest solo which Luke (Man) will be playing live. So far, 'Thunder (MMXXII)' has only been available as a bonus track on the Japanese 'Kill The Hunted' CD so we're excited to be able to present the track to a wider audience through vinyl and digital."

Soda Blonde just released their new song "Bad Machine," the lead single from their forthcoming album "Dream Big". To celebrate, we asked them to tell us about the track. Here is the story:
The process for how we work in Soda Blonde varies from song to song, but it usually begins with an acoustic demo from Faye. However, she will never bring a song into the room until she has completed the lyrics first. 'Bad Machine' was one of those rare occasions where she decided to share a melodic idea with us - with no lyrics. (continue)
