Jerry Cantrell Releases New Album Title Track

Jerry Cantrell’s highly-anticipated new album, "I Want Blood," arrives next Friday, with one final sneak peek available today with the release of the album’s title track. You can check out a visualizer video for the song below.

"There’s a confidence to this album," Cantrell explains. "I think it’s some of my best writing and playing and certainly some of my best singing. There are large chunks of this record where I felt like my face was pressed to the ceiling of my abilities, operating at the top of my capacity."

The four-minute-plus track opens with a menacing bass line from Duff McKagan, accompanied by Mike Bordin’s building drumbeat, followed by Cantrell’s ominous first words… "I Want Blood." The song was co-produced, as the album was, by Cantrell and Joe Barresi (Tool, Queens of the Stone Age, Melvins). More...

Seven Kingdoms Unveils "Through These Waves" Video

Florida's Seven Kingdoms has released "Through These Waves," the second single from their highly anticipated upcoming EP, "The Square." Set to drop on November 8, 2024 via rising metal label Reigning Phoenix Music (RPM), "The Square" promises to deliver more of the band's signature sound. 'Through These Waves' is a three-and-a-half-minute burst of trad metal, packed with hooks that evoke the legends of the genre.

The band comment: "We are stoked to drop 'Through These Waves' today! This is the heaviest track on the EP with hooks and melodies galore! We wanted to touch on the heavier side of our influences for this song and bring a bit of a different feel that we have not brought yet to our catalog. We really enjoy this tempo, as it's also the first Seven Kingdoms song at this beat. We plan on having more like this on the upcoming record! The music video is a continuation of 'The Square's' visual story and will conclude the two part filming that we did for both these songs. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do! Please share and let us know what you think!" More...

Ice Nine Kills Shares "A Work Of Art" Music Video

Ice Nine Kills has unleashed new single "A Work Of Art," the official track for the highly anticipated slasher sequel, Terrifier 3, which hit theaters nationwide yesterday. Along with the single, the band have dropped a brand new, blood-soaked, 14-minute extended-cut of the accompanying music video, the original version of which debuted in over 300 theaters nationwide during exclusive, one-night-only, back to back screenings of Terrifier 2 and Terrifier 3 Thursday night at select AMC and Marcus theaters.

The music video, a cinematic spectacle in its own right, is directed by longtime collaborator Jensen Noen, and stars stars David Howard Thornton (Terrifier’s infamous Art the Clown), Catherine Corcoran (Terrifier), Leah Voysey (Terrifier 2), Sirius XM’s Jose Mangin and Vincent Rockwell, Richard Christy (drummer for Death, Control Denied, and Charred Walls of the Damned), and also features Shavo Odadjian (System Of A Down and Seven Hours After Violet) who lent his legendary bass playing to the track. Special effects for the video were created by Academy Award-winner Christopher Nelson (American Horror Story, Halloween 2018, Suicide Squad, Kill Bill). In true Ice Nine Kills fashion, the video not only serves up unprecedented gore and an unrivalled kill-count but seems to also be setting the stage for a new chapter of the Ice Nine Kills cinematic universe with the additional footage on display in the extended-cut version.

Speaking on the collaboration, Ice Nine Kills creative visionary and frontman Spencer Charnas shares:
"Creating a track for Terrifier 3 is like stepping into the ultimate horror playground. The film and our new single, 'A Work of Art', reflect the same twisted, unrelenting energy that fans of both Ice Nine Kills and the Terrifier franchise thrive on. And having our music video play in theaters after the movie at special screenings last night was the ultimate honour and the best way to pay homage to the cinematic terror that has inspired me and this band. The extended cut of the video marks a new era of INK related terror, but what that means shall remain in my nightmares. for now. Psychos, we present to you what may well be our most glorious and goresome offering yet, sure to leave you both tongue-tied and terrified." More...
