Danish power thrash force EXELERATE unleash their new official video and digital single, “The Madness”: a relentless dive into the shadowy corners of the human mind. Fueled by piercing riffs, lightning-speed solos, and blistering high vocals, the song captures the inner torment of depressive rumination, that quiet war between sanity and the pull of darkness. It’s fast, aggressive, and uncomfortably real.
Forged in the heart of Denmark’s metal underground, Exelerate blends the precision of prog with the fury of thrash and the grandeur of power metal. With a sound that channels the old-school spirit while carving out something unmistakably modern, they’ve created a sonic identity that’s both brutal and intricate, built to erupt on stage and stick in your mind long after.
After Exelerate’s self-titled debut album, out in 2023 via From The Vaults, “The Madness” kicks off a new chapter for the Danes, ahead of a new album announcement.

Formed in 1999, DRAGONFORCE has earned their reputation as the world’s fastest band via their power metal anthems filled with spectacular guitar solos, including the iconic platinum-selling hit “Through the Fire and Flames”. Several of the songs on Warp Speed Warriors have already gained over a million streams on Spotify.

Alissa White-Gluz on the collaboration: “As a long time DragonForce fan, it was such a fun experience to sing Burning Heart! This band knows no speed limits – even as a vocalist I found myself tripping over consonants trying to keep up. It was a refreshing challenge! I’m happy to be a part of such a cool song and video!”
DRAGONFORCE guitarist Herman Li adds: “Alissa has been one of my favorite metal vocalists for a long time. I’m thrilled that the stars aligned, allowing us to collaborate on this track. I believe ‘Burning Heart’ is the perfect song for Alissa to showcase her remarkable vocal range and her stunning performance has elevated the song to another level.“

New Zealand’s ALIEN WEAPONRY recently released their head-turning third album, Te Rā, via Napalm Records! Today, swiftly following the announcement of their upcoming USA tour supporting Avatar with fellow openers SpiritWorld, the band has dropped a brand new music video for album single “Taniwha”, featuring an intense guest appearance from metal icon Randy Blythe (Lamb Of God).
In the video, the modern groove metal trio find themselves face to face with puppet masters of corporate greed and overconsumption, providing a thought-provoking backdrop to one of the album’s most aggressive, death-metal leaning offerings.
Watch the video below, and make sure to check out the band’s upcoming USA tour dates, starting November 5, 2025 in Phoenix, AZ!
ALIEN WEAPONRY says about the “Taniwha” video: “We are super excited to share something we have been working on for a while. We felt honored to have the opportunity to collaborate with the mighty Randy Blythe on our song ‘Taniwha’ off of our latest album, so it only made sense to have him be a part of the music video too!
We wanted to create something special for this one, and we are stoked with how it turned out!”

ALIEN WEAPONRY have solidified themselves as one of the greatest young metal bands of their generation with renewed musical tenacity and crucial messaging. Since releasing their acclaimed debut Tū (2018), the band have been lauded for their kinetic presence and sound, as well as their vital blend of culturally profound lyricism in both English and te reo Māori, the indigenous language of New Zealand.
With their third full-length album, ALIEN WEAPONRY expand on their hallmark messages of cultural, societal and environmental resilience while delivering their most massive-sounding, focused musical output ever. In the hands of veteran producer/mixer Josh Wilbur (Lamb Of God, Gojira, Megadeth), Te Rā’s gnashing blend of groove, nu, math and thrash metal shines with anthemic choruses and refreshed technical skill. Te Rāis a bold, unwavering cry for a future in which we can all take part in the legacy of peoples like the Māori and others all around us – people who, if they aren’t seen, most certainly need to be heard! Taken as a whole, Te Rāgrapples with what it’s like to be caught in the pull of divergent cultures – not just for the descendants of colonized people, but for all of us.
Te Rā track listing: 1. Crown 2. Mau Moko 3. 1000 Friends 4. Hanging by a Thread 5. Tama-nui-te-rā 6. Myself to Blame 7. Taniwha (feat. Randy Blythe) 8. Blackened Sky 9. Te Riri o Tāwhirimātea 10. Ponaturi 11. Te Kore

In support of their latest, critically-acclaimed studio album “Glory Or Nothing” (released in March 2025 via ROAR at THIS LOCATION!),French hard ‘n’ heavy rockers OVERDRIVERS are premiering a brand new music video for the aptly self-titled, high-voltage track “Overdrivers”!
The band comments: “Overdrivers – the true story of small-town guys trying to conquer the world with their Rock ‘n’ Roll!”
Watch the new OVERDRIVERS clip, directed and edited by Julien Metternich:
Since 2015, OVERDRIVERS has been tearing through the Northern Lands like a runaway freight train. Born from nowhere and fueled by pure rock rebellion, these four hard-hitting rockers bring the kind of thunder only cranked-up Marshall amps can deliver. With their amps on blast, they claimed every stage in their path, quickly earning a reputation for leaving chaos — and converted fans—behind them.
Once they’d conquered every inch of their homeland, the band set their sights on broader horizons, unleashing their electric storm on Spain and beyond. With relentless shows, OVERDRIVERS brought their raw, headbanging energy to rock lovers everywhere, proving that in the face of their All-Powerful Rock’N’Roll, resistance is futile!
Armed with a series of explosive releases — Rockin’ Hell (2016), She’s On Her Period (2018), and the Rock Out! EP — the band rallied thousands of followers and forged an unbreakable army of die-hard fans, while they have just unleashed their most powerful weapon yet: “Glory Or Nothing”! Their latest masterpiece dropped like a bombshell, reigniting their worldwide crusade and solidifying their place as a force in modern rock. Brace yourself and get ready to rock: OVERDRIVERS are here — louder, fiercer, and more unstoppable than ever!

The unrelenting, blackened death metal project HESSIAN has signed a licensing deal with Wormholedeath for the release of their highly anticipated self-titled EP, due out on 20 June 2025. Known for their raw, primal energy and no-frills approach to blackened death metal, Hessian has already captured the attention of the underground scene, and this collaboration is set to amplify their ferocity on the global stage.
Laremy (Founder, Guitarist) shares his excitement: “We’re truly honored to join the Wormholedeath family—a label and publisher with deep roots and an incredible legacy. From Carlo’s early days in Necromass to his ongoing work with Warner Chappell Holland and global distribution through Sony Orchard, the reach is immense. To be part of a catalog spanning over 400 releases is a privilege we take seriously—and we’re committed to representing it with pride in all our future releases.”
The Hessian EP is a raw homage to the early days of black metal, stripped to its most primal and savage core. Laremy explains, “There’s no bass—just rhythm guitar, vocals, and drums. It channels a hypnotic, bestial energy that immerses listeners in a dark, repetitive guitar style designed to invoke and celebrate the unspeakable.”
