ZZ Ward unleashes Liberation, her long-awaited new album and first full-length release under the storied Sun Records banner. A raw, blues-infused statement of artistic freedom, Liberation is a return to ZZ's roots-an album that encapsulates her journey of self-discovery, motherhood, and reclaiming her place as a powerful blues artist. To mark the release, she also shares the striking music video for the album's title track, "Liberation," shot almost entirely on the streets of Los Angeles and directed by Adam Ward.
"I didn't plan to make a blues album about motherhood, it just sort of happened naturally," ZZ shares. "I've always written to get through things in life. Suddenly, I was faced with a new job that's 24/7 with no breaks, and that's what I wrote about. But when you get tested, you discover who you are, and this album comes from a feeling of empowerment."

Buried Realm, the boundary-pushing melodic death metal project led by Josh Dummer, proudly unveils their latest single and lyric video, "Futuristic Hollow Nation," from their upcoming album The Dormant Darkness. This new track, featuring Christopher Amott, is a profound exploration of emotional isolation and existential void, set to the backdrop of the band's darkest and most intense soundscapes yet.
Josh Dummer shares insights into the creation of the single: "When I started working on 'Futuristic Hollow Nation,' I was driven by a heavy riff that demanded a tuning lower than any of my usual setups could handle. After discovering a baritone guitar from Solar, I knew it was the missing piece needed to give life to the deep, resonant sound I envisioned. This same guitar was instrumental in crafting the album's title track as well." (continue)
