Fire From The Gods Premiere New Single "Unknown"
Following an early spin on SiriusXM’s Octane, Fire From The Gods have officially released their new single “Unknown” online. An official music video—directed by Tom Flynn (Lamb Of God, As I Lay Dying)—is set to premiere this Tuesday, April 14th, but the track itself is already available to stream.

Sevendust Posts "Threshold" Video Online
With their 15th studio album "One" arriving May 1, GRAMMY® Award–nominated metal icons Sevendust return with a powerful new single, "Threshold."
Comprised of Lajon Witherspoon (vocals), Clint Lowery (guitar), John Connolly (guitar), Vince Hornsby (bass), and Morgan Rose (drums), the band once again deliver a driving, emotionally charged track primed to become a centerpiece of their live set. "Threshold" highlights Sevendust's signature blend of heavy grooves and melodic intensity, paired with motivational lyricism. Witherspoon channels raw emotion as he addresses those who push others to their breaking point: "You want another piece of me, don’t ya? To break apart so you get what you wanted?"
Poised to stand among the standout moments of the band’s three-decade career, “Threshold” is available now on all digital streaming platforms.
The accompanying music video marks the return of animator Ollie Jones and continues the storyline introduced in the band’s video for "Fence." In the new chapter, a greedy music agent pressures a management team to exhume the decayed members of Sevendust and send them back on tour. Reanimated using the same mysterious substance that first brought them back, the band embarks on a run designed to line the agent’s pockets. The video ends with the band under his full control and what happens next is anyone’s guess. More...

The accompanying music video, directed by Dan Sturgess, captures the band’s electrifying live presence during their recent European tour.
