The furnace is hot and the metal has been shaped. Today, the heavy metal band Ironwill drops their brand-new full-length album, “Reforged Within“.
This album brings a high-octane mix of crushing rhythms, soaring vocals, and expressive guitar work, balancing their classic heavy metal roots with a sharper, more modern sonic approach. Recorded, mixed, and mastered at Snooky Records (Italy) under the production of Salvo Ironwill Dell’Arte and Marzio “Mr. G” Francone, “Reforged Within” delivers a straightforward lyrical and musical journey about facing inner battles, resilience, and rising stronger from the struggle.
The wait is officially over. Crank the volume, headbang till it hurts, and blast the new tracks right now!
Swedish symphonic metal visionaries ZORNHEYM present their second single and music video “Deus Rex”, taken from their upcoming studio album “Descending Into Madness”, set for release on October 2 via Noble Demon.
Following the first glimpse into the new chapter with “Somewhere Far Beyond”, the band now unveils a track that opens the album in a fast, heavy and cinematic way. “Deus Rex” serves as the prologue to the wider narrative of “Descending Into Madness” and dives deeper into the dark history of the Zornheimasylum universe.
“We knew we wanted a fast, heavy-hitting epic as the opener for Descending Into Madness“,says mastermind Zorn. “The first idea that came to mind was an unreleased Devian song that was originally written for the third album. So this track is co-written with Emil Dragutinovic (ex-Marduk, ex-Devian, ex-The Legion). It started from his original idea, blended with some of mine. We kept the core spirit of it but fully ‘Zornheymified’ the song – I wrote new parts, and Scucca added the choir break. The result absolutely rips.“
He continues: “From a story perspective, this song serves as the prologue to the entire prequel. It takes us back to a time when the asylum functioned as a field hospital during the Thirty Years’ War, and to the dreadful night when a group of deserters were brutally executed by the shores of Sêlasee (the lake near the asylum) and hanged from the old oak. It also briefly touches on the period when the place served as a sanatorium for the dying.“
Tracklist:
Prologue: From the Depths of Sêlasee
Deus Rex
Somewhere Far Beyond
Deep Below
Anneliese
Alone in the Dark
Gallow’s Oak
The Funeral March
Descending
Come Sweet Death
The Foreboding (CD Bonus Track)
None For All (CD Bonus Track)
With “Descending Into Madness”, ZORNHEYM continue to expand their elaborate narrative universe centered around the infamous Zornheim asylum. Each release adds new layers to a story that blurs the line between horror, history and madness – where it is never entirely clear who the real inmates are.
Formed in Stockholm by multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Zorn (ex-Dark Funeral), ZORNHEYM have built their identity on the fusion of symphonic metal, cinematic orchestration and melodic death metal influences. Their work is further enhanced by visual storytelling, graphic novels and short-film-style music videos, turning each release into a multi-dimensional experience.
“Descending Into Madness” will be coming out on October 2 via Noble Demon and is available for pre-order at THIS LOCATION. The album will be available in a variety of exclusive formats, including colored marbled vinyl, a limited Collector’s Edition CD, a Digipak, and an A5 book.
ELDER return today with the release of Through Zero, a record that stands among the most immersive and ambitious works of the band’s career so far. Praised by the international music press, the album sees the band further expanding their distinctive blend of progressive rock, psychedelia and heavy sound while sharpening the dynamic depth and emotional weight that have defined their evolution over the years.
Two decades into their existence, ELDER remain an anomaly in the heavy underground – a rare band with the ability to absorb and shed influences from a myriad of genres without falling into pastiche or losing their own identity. Through Zero stands as a strong reaffirmation of their commitment to pushing boundaries in the world of heavy rock and cements the group’s status as leaders of the pack in heavy psychedelic rock.
Over the past twenty years, ELDER have mastered crushing riffs, melodic jaunts, progressive patterns, hypnotic grooves and ethereal atmosphere. On Through Zero, the band channel these years of experience into what may be their most immediate and engaging record to date, while allowing seeds from outside the sphere of rock music to take root and bloom within their progressive framework. Listeners will find familiar elements of new textures, sequences, and sounds alongside ELDER’s iconic take on heavy rock. As always, every spin reveals new details.
“In a diverse album, the title track of our new album sits on the middle of the spectrum and is a perfect first impression of what’s to come,” says guitarist and singer Nick DiSalvo. “Dreamy, heavy, raw, electronic, there’s a bit of everything that makes this album special to us. Through Zero is about impermanence, coming to terms with mortality and the long struggle to not only make peace but to find a sort of solidarity with the dead. The more time passes, the more this theme returns to me, and always in a new light – much as our music always returns in a slightly changed state reflecting who we are becoming.”
Recorded at Big Snuff Studios in Berlin across several months between tours in 2025, Through Zero marks the first album the band not only produced themselves, but also co-mixed together with longtime collaborator Richard Behrens. Mastered by Carl Saff, the result is a record that feels more like a full extension of the band’s creative intentions than ever before.
“Through Zero” is a term borrowed from engineering and the world of music,” DiSalvo reveals. “It describes the property of a frequency being able to pass through the zero point and continue into the negative. While it isn’t a concept rooted in philosophy, it resonates with me on a conceptual level: the zero point is not an end, but a midpoint along a partially unseen path. Interpretation is open: the journey is the destination, beginnings and endings may be arbitrary, or perhaps reality is simply less linear than we tend to assume.
The songs on the album explore related themes that reflect my own observations and personal philosophy. Life and death, frustration and fear, helplessness and hope – all of these exist along the same “signal path.”
Through Zero Tracklist: 1. Sigil To Ruin 2. Capture/Release 3. Through Zero 4. Strata 5. Sight Unseen 6. Blighted Age

Italian alternative rock trio epoimóriròmiope have released eclissi (unplugged), an acoustic reworking of the track “eclissi” from their album “ricordi di un tempo mai esistito”, out now via Epictronic Worldwide.
The new version strips the original of its layered production, arriving as a more direct and exposed take on the song. The band approached the arrangement not as a reduction but as a rewrite from scratch — reconsidering what the track needed once the noise was gone.
The band said: “When we first wrote and produced Eclissi, it was a track full of layers, tension, almost ‘noisy,’ even on an emotional level. Taking it acoustic wasn’t simply a matter of stripping it back, but of rethinking it from the ground up. We asked ourselves what would remain once everything unnecessary was removed, and in doing so, we uncovered its most fragile and honest core. This version is more direct, more exposed. Where there was once anger or impact, there is now vulnerability. Certain lines carry a different weight, almost as if the song had grown with us over time. In a sense, this isn’t just a musical reinterpretation, it’s an emotional one too: the same song, seen through different eyes.”
With ricordi di un tempo mai esistito, epoimóriròmiope invite listeners into their world of raw emotion, fragile beauty, and haunting intensity.

About:
Emerging in 2021 from Bologna, Italy, epoimóriròmiope fuses Metalcore, EDM, and Alternative Rock into a genre-defying sound. Originally a one-man project, it has evolved in both style and lineup—from the dark trap influences of Vincoli (2021) to the electronic experiments of kabukimono (2023). Singles from these albums remain on YouTube but have been withdrawn from streaming platforms to mark a fresh start with the definitive lineup and sound.
Lyrically, the project has shifted from social observations to exploring the darkest corners of the human soul. The latest album, “ricordi di un tempo mai esistito”, delves into separation, loss, regret, anger, anxiety, and reflections on death and life’s fleeting nature. Its first single, “vertigine”, captures the dizzying weight of absence and memory, offering atmospheric, raw alt-rock where love, identity, and time seem to unravel.

Fresh off a run of sold-out arena shows across Australia and New Zealand, multi-platinum rock titans Good Charlotte have announced their Motel Du Cap EU + UK Tour and pop-punk royalties Yellowcard will join them across all dates.
Frontman Ryan Key comments: “Taking on two continents in 2026 with Good Charlotte was not on our bingo card. They are just too good to us. Cannot wait to support them on their massive return to Europe and the UK”.
The tour kicks off in Stockholm on Sunday 8th November, with stops in Germany, Denmark, Belgium, the Netherlands and Paris, before concluding in the UK with shows in London at the O2 Arena and at Manchester’s Co-op Live. Tickets go on general sale on Friday 29th May at 10am local time here.

Preferred ticket access to some of the best tickets are available in the countries listed and the UK from Friday May 29 at 10AM local. Check out priceless.com/music for details.
Meanwhile, Yellowcard are currently on their eagerly awaited headline run, “Up Up Down Down Tour” across the US. The stacked bill features special guests New Found Glory and Plain White T’s. This run will see the band perform in major cities such as Chicago, Denver, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Nashville, and New York, and concludes on June 17 at Boston’s Leader Bank Pavilion.
Yellowcard’s energetic and unforgettable show will allow fans to enjoy classics tunes as well as new anthemic tracks from their latest record “Better Days”.
The most recent single sees the band joining forces with global children’s education sensation Blippi to recharge and revamp their buzzing hit “Bedroom Posters” with a brand new duet version, out now via Better Noise. It’s Yellowcard and Blippi’s second track together, following “Go Go Go,” and third recording of “Bedroom Posters.”
Listen to “Bedroom Posters” (Feat. Blippi) here and watch the video here.
This iteration of the track maintains the energy of the original, yet Blippi brings his own magic to the party. He has retrofitted the tune with a fresh and family-friendly perspective, flipping lyrics like “Tear down my bedroom posters” to “Look at my bedroom posters” and soaring with the band on a sky-high chant of “Airplanes and rollercoasters.” Together, they also excitedly continue the “Year of Vehicles,” extending the celebration of the vehicles kids dig the most — from race cars and monster trucks to excavators and everything in between.
Yellowcard’s “Bedroom Posters” has quietly emerged as a staple with millions of streams and views as well being the current radio single featuring Good Charlotte; it’s landed at No. 5 on the Alternative Radio Charts. Beyond looks from Alternative Press Magazine, Rock Sound, and more, Consequence applauded how “the song finds Yellowcard singer Ryan Key trading vocals with Good Charlotte’s Joel Madden,” while Rolling Stone put it best, “It’s the collaboration made in pop-punk dreams.”

ABOUT YELLOWCARD
Yellowcard meant it when they said goodbye. The lights dimmed on one of the most beloved pop-punk and alt-rock bands of the 2000s with intention and authenticity. Wrapping things up with a farewell tour, Yellowcard exited the “right” way, with grace, appreciation, and finality. But the story wasn’t complete. Legacy cracked the door. Healing blew it wide open. Riding a resurgence that saw the global Ocean Avenue 20th anniversary tour featured in Forbes and a reconciliation that put all four members at peace with their legacy and each other, Yellowcard made the most ambitious and emotionally resonant record of their career. Better Days, the band’s first album in nearly a decade, was produced by blink-182’s Travis Barker, who also played drums on every track. Their first release with powerhouse label Better Noise Music, Better Days is Yellowcard’s testimony that healing is a process, growth is nonlinear, and sometimes the best chapter opens after the supposed ending. This isn’t just a return. It’s a reckoning. And this time, Yellowcard is ready.
