Check out the "Pure Revolution" single below. Vocalist Chris Raposo comments on the track: "It's about not putting too much energy and stock into the negative energies that surround people... and knowing your value and the value of those who want you because of simply who you are, nothing more... it's a revolution in thought and action towards the ones that underestimate... once we find ourselves, were all a force to be reckoned with and it's up to us to show them what we got."

Hollow Bones Releasing "Lionheart"
Empire State melodic metalcore quintet Hollow Bones will self-release debut album, "Lionheart," on May 27th. Over a year in the making, "Lionheart" was mixed, mastered and engineered by Randy Pasquarella at Pasquarella Recordings and self-produced by Hollow Bones with Pasquarella's assistance.
The band comments: "We are incredibly proud to present our debut album 'Lionheart.' It took us over a year to get everything we wanted, and although it was a long wait, we couldn't be happier with the final product. We hope that the passion we put into making this album rings true with people who are looking to find solace in music. We hope that people hear the words we are saying and are inspired to take action, or are relieved in knowing they are not alone and that others have felt the way they do and that there is reprieve. Our mission from the beginning has always been, and will always be, to find people who are as passionate about music as we are about creating it. Promote what you love, and use music to heal."
Last year Hollow Bones launched a music video for the first "Lionheart" single, "Drytooth," which can be seen here. In our exclusive premiere of the video, vocalist Patrick Anthony commented:
"Thematically 'Drytooth' is very dark. I lost my brother in 2007, and the song is really about not being able to move past it. Carrying around the weight of not knowing whether it was an intentional death or not. It is about the hole in your life that someone can leave, regardless of how or why you have lost them. It is about watching someone you love suffer through tremendous depression, and being powerless to do anything. More...

Reign Of Fury Catches A Wanking Driver
While out on the road touring, U.K. metal outfit Reign Of Fury came across something you don't typically see everyday: a driver full on jerking off on the highway. After Reign Of Fury filmed the incident, the story has managed to break out into the non-metal news sites. Mirror.co.uk reports:
Ross, from Horsham, West Sussex, said: "Obviously lots of bands have stories from being on tour but I think the 'wanking van driver' trumps them all. It was just unbelievable. It was clear as day what he was doing - there was no doubt left in our minds. The image has been burned into my mind and just pops up on its own - it's horrible.
"We beeped our horn at him to let him know we were watching him and he just carried on doing it. He didn't seem to care at all. It didn't faze him in the slightest. He seemed happy to be being watched. It's pretty disgraceful behaviour. He certainly wasn't giving his full attention to the road so that is dangerous.
"I still can't process what I saw, it was that horrible. He definitely did not have two hands on the wheel, let's put it that way."
Reign Of Fury released the "Death Be Thy Shepard" album last year, which is available for streaming in full at this location. More...

Drowning Pool Kicking Off USO Shows

Guitarist C.J. Pierce states, "We love giving back, it's the least we can do. ... There are a lot of families involved in the armed forces and we love giving them a hand. It's definitely great for us to go overseas and play at different bases. I think 2005 was our first one (Iraq and Kuwait) and it's personal for us. Each one of us has someone in our family somewhere in the armed forces and it's all about those friends and families."

Augury Announces Return Of Antoine Baril
Augury has checked in with the following announcement about the return of former member Antoine Baril:
"We are happy to announce that drummer Antoine Baril is back in Augury. The recording is still underway and the process will be completed toward the end of the year. Antoine has been part of Augury from 2009 to 2012 so it was a natural and logical choice at the same time, since its a long time friend and somebody we admire a lot (you can hear one of his most recent work on the latest Deviant Process album 'Paroxysm').
"The band is actually starting the recording of the bass at Humanoise Studio with Mat, followed by vocals, guitar solos and acoustic guitars. The drums will be recorded at Hemisphere Studio this summer by Antoine. You can therefore expect some studio videos from us soon! To conclude, the mix and mastering work will be done by Christian Donaldson at The Grid in Montreal at the end of
the year, so be prepared to finally hear a new Augury album!"
Antoine comments: ''It's a pleasure and an honor for me to be back in the team again. I'm totally stoked to hear the new material that I have to work on and it's also a really cool thing to bring back some pre-prod that I already did with the band back in 2012. The chemistry is fully installed like it was before and the vibe is absolutely wonderful. Let's grind some drum sticks!!!'' More...

Backdawn Announces New Album
French extreme metal quartet Backdawn will release new album "I Shall Burn Your Empire" on 20th April, 2016. Composed of anger, violence and pure aggression, "I Shall Burn Your Empire" encapsulates the theatre of brutality that is Backdawn.
Recorded and mixed by Clement Decrock of Boss Hog Studio France and mastered by Annihilator’s Jeff Waters at his Watersound Studio, "I Shall Burn Your Empire" follows the band’s debut album, "Through Extermination" [2013]. Vocalist and lead guitarist Chris Snaeder had this to say on the recording process:
"It was a painful and intense session, and I think you can hear it in our production. It took two years work to write this album, and when we knew that Jeff would work on it too, we wanted to produce the best record we could…
"Work is work, when you want to get the best then you have to throw your entire soul and all your energy into it. We did just that, and at the end of the two weeks recording session, we listened to the whole unmixed album and it was already sounding great." More...
Interview
Wrong Relates Band's Brief History And Philosophy
Even though Miami, Florida-based Wrong played a stoner/doom-heavy festival called Heavy Metal Parking Lot during the week of SXSW in Austin, Texas, the band didn’t display much of those sounds. Sure, singer/guitarist Eric Hernandez claims the Melvins as an influence. Also, he played in bands that seem more aligned with that movement like Kylesa and Torche (and even spent some time as Corrosion of Conformity’s drummer). Wrong’s style is more in step with groove metal bands from the ‘90s like Helmet and UNSANE.
Wrong plays syncopated, aggressive rhythms that get into your brain and beat on it. They were certainly one of the bands that stood out at this festival. The group is still a new entity, though, so we caught up with Hernandez to talk about some of the band’s history, influences and philosophy for making music. Read on to learn more about this new band and watch for their self-titled, first album to come out on Relapse Records at the end of this month. More...
Surgical Meth Machine Posts New Video

In anticipation of the release, Uncle Al is treating fans with the premiere of the official video for new track "I'm Invisible," and it's probably not at all what fans were expecting. Check it out below.
Commenting on the video, Al states: "Hello folks, thought y'all might like to see some home videos of my last Las Vegas vacation. WARNING: do not attempt to view this unless sufficiently high!”
Peekaboo Primate Releasing "Misanthropical"
Finnish alternative metal band Peekaboo Primate (formerly known as Airhead) is gearing up to release "Misanthropical" on CD / digital formats via Inverse Records on May 12th, 2016. Inverse comments:
"The name Peekaboo Primate combines a joker like wackyness with more serious interpretation. This schizophrenia describes perfectly the contradiction we all face in our everyday lives. 'Misanthropical' was recorded at Lauri’s (vocals) studio Tuulensuu except for the drums.
"Production and the sound sets Peekaboo Primate apart from the everyday generic metal sound with more organic touch but still with programming and modern elements. The album was mixed by Samu Oittinen at Fantom Studio and mastered by Svante Forsbäck at Chartmakers."
The album's track listing is as follows: More...
Disfigured Human Mind Announces Demo Release
Disfigured Human Mind's "Atomic Aberration" demo is coming via Helldprod Murder Records in a limited run of 100 copies. The label comments:
"When you think about it really well grindcore was meant to revolve your guts to express your frustrations and to exorcise your anger. Disfigured Human Mind does it all based on the traditional formulas going straight to your heart shredding it to tiny pieces and severing your ears deeply. No fashions, no trends, just grinding noise to rip your body apart!"
All nasty noise from the release was recorded in Portugal and all vocal vomits recorded in Belgium with the support from Martin Furia and Music City Studios. The track listing is:

When Our Time Comes Posts New Video
The brand new single "50 Years From Now," taken from When Our Time Comes' forthcoming self-titled album, can now be seen below.
The album is set to be released on April 15th in Europe and May 6th in North America via Lifeforce Records. The label had this to say:
"Having opened shows for the likes of Of Mice And Men, The Color Morale, or Hacktivist, the band from the North of London combines polyrhythmic grooves with heavy breakdowns and emotional easiness. When Our Time Comes are always good for a surprise, but at the same time they pay attention to a harmonious balance and a coherent framework.
"Formed in 2011, When Our Time Comes are an exciting five piece band from the UK. Drawing on their collective influences from SikTh, Parkway Drive, Thrice, and Periphery, the band released the EP 'Test The Waters' in the April of 2012, and now are about to unleash their self titled debut album on Lifeforce Records."

“First we were sorry, now we’re excited. We hope Pete all the best but we are ready to kick some serious ass with Pekka, who’s an excellent metal singer with a very versatile voice and range. We are all very impressed by his talent and motivation. With Pekka the songs from Chasing Rainbows album will be born again live with some tasty screams and growls. Time will tell if Pete will return to the fold but now it’s too early to say more.”

"Demon is about a man's yearning after finding the right way, to be free from all desires, to turn away from life's eternal struggle. Demon comes around when you least expect it. Demon puts the grip hard on your soul and keeps you stucked. Will he ever get released?
"Demon is one of three songs recorded in the spring of 2015 at Slowbeat studio in Gävle by Jonas Strömberg and mixed by Konie Ehrencrona in Studio of Cobra. The music video is directed by moviemaker Vincent 'Pussel' Widegren. The band's debut album expected to be released in the spring of 2016.
