Paul was asked if the final concert of their End Of The Road Tour will really be the band's last show during an interview with Yahoo! Entertainment and he responded, "I really can't say. But it is the last of any kind of regular shows or touring.
"It's just time. And in the same way, it's time consuming. And physically, it's grueling to do what we do. Hell, if I could go out on stage in my jeans and a t-shirt, give us another 10, 15 years easily. (continue)

John Hanifin just premiered a music video for "Stop, Drop & Roll", the first single from his forthcoming album, "Clean House" (out April 21st), and to celebrate we asked John to tell us about the song. Here is the story:
Since I could not find a way to progress with this guitar motif, I have been haunted by it for years. My mind was reminded of a quote I once heard which stated "you never write what you know" so I began by producing the track as if it were for someone else. I was able to take a step back once I created the hiccup syncopation with the 808 & kick simply dancing around each other in sync, and suddenly there it was - "the hook".
The cello has many theories that explain why people love it so much, and my favorite is the simplest one of all - it's the closest instrument to the human voice. To better serve this all too familiar human plight, I could not pass up the opportunity to stack 'em' in the bridge and let them cry in the final chorus. (continue)
Fall Out Boy have released a music video for their brand new song "Love From The Other Side" to announce the arrival of their new studio album, "So Much (For) Stardust", on March 24th.

"But we wanted to get back to the way we used to work. We wanted to make a record that was really lovingly crafted and deliberate and patiently guided - like someone cooked you a delicate meal. I'm not a very proud guy, but I'm pretty proud of this record." (continue)
Prog rockers Haken have released a music video for their new song "Taurus". The track is the third single revealed from their forthcoming album, "Fauna", which will arrive on March 3rd.
Ross Jennings shared, "With such a diverse and eclectic array of material on 'Fauna', it was important for us to include a piece of music that represented the metallic edge of our sound which was exploited predominantly on 'Vector' & 'Virus', with our focus being on hard hitting riffs in odd time signatures.
"The song's lyrics were written roughly at the same time we all started hearing about the devastation and crisis happening in Ukraine. I was already writing the piece based on the annual migration of the wildebeests with strong references to people travelling in herds and strength in numbers. (continue)

Shinedown have premiered a new music video for their new single "Dead Don't Die", which is a track from the group's latest album, "Planet Zero".
Guitarist Zach Myers had this to say about the song, "'Dead Don't Die' is the first song I think any of us had ever brought in completed that really didn't go through some sort of major change. (Truly one of the greatest feelings I've had in this band.)
"I'm never a fan of talking about what songs mean because I feel like you put them in a box...but the song is about Brent, and the people like him...the strong-willed, refuse to give up, bend but never break human spirit.
"I've seen this man be at the bottom before, and pick himself up, and never stop trying to be better. I hope everyone feels something when they listen to it. I hope it makes you feel like you can run through a brick wall."
