Following the successful release of his long lost first solo album, Easy With The Heartaches, Peter Goalby’s second solo album I Will Come Runnin’ is finally seeing the light of day.
The 10-track album was personally overseen (from tape transfer, mastering and artwork) by the former Uriah Heep and Trapeze vocalist.
Peter Goalby was the lead singer of Uriah Heep, Trapeze and Fable but has now retired from the music industry after an illustrious career.
Peter Goalby said of the release: “Well, here we go again. Thank you so much for listening to my first solo album Easy With The Heartaches. I hope you will enjoy this collection of my songs written and recorded after I left Uriah Heep. I have included 2 more co-writes as they deserve to be on the album. I put Little Piece Of Heaven at the end of the track list because this was the last song I wrote before walking away from music. Thank you for sticking with me…”
Spikerot Records has just released a brand new episode of “The Spikerot Sessions”. The fourth episode is now available via the Spikerot Records YouTube channel and features the Italian gloomy kings SHORES OF NULL playing their latest work ‘Beyond The Shores (On Death And Dying)’ in full, a single track of nearly 40 minutes that explores death doom, gothic and funeral doom territories.
The video was recorded and mixed by Sergio Pomante at Noiselab Studio in Giulianova (TE). Filmed, directed and edited by Daniele Di Egidio.
LÜT have been tapping into the consciousness of rock-loving audiences ever since the band saw the light of day in 2014. In recent years, the band has undergone some major changes, as shown in the upcoming song “Tydeligvis E Æ Like Vanlig Som Alle Andre” which is released today, Wednesday, June 1st.
“This track is extremely different musically and lyrically than what we have done before. Before Hans Marius Mikkelsen left the band, he wrote most of the songs and this was one of his sketches, which I continued to work on. I’ve always liked it, but it’s just been in the drawer until now. It is very cool that it will finally be released, but also a little scary since the track has become so personal”,says vocalist and songwriter in the band, Markus Danjord.
“Tydeligvis E Æ Like Vanlig Som Alle Andre” is about seeing oneself from the outside, how to treat people around you and how our actions affect others.”
Markus himself believes that it can be new life situations and the encounter with big choices that result in you reflecting even more on your own life and who you are. In the last three years, LÜT has lost three members from the band’s original cast. Though the new members have brought the band new life, at the same time Markus makes no secret of the fact that it has also been demanding;
“The big changes we have experienced within the band have meant that we have had to find new ways. It has been very positive for our development, but also offered great challenges. In addition, we are spread all over the country, which does not make it easier. This song and the somewhat self-realizing lyrics are probably a result of the somewhat tough and lonely periods,”he says.

Explosive. Bombastic. Defiant. Intense. SEETHING AKIRA continue to rampage forward with their gloriously turbulent nu-metal sound. Hot off the editorial success of their last album Dysfunctional Wonderland and with scheduled appearances at the Heavy Music Awards 2022 on June 5th, Download Festival on June 8th, and TECH-FEST on July 1st, comes the band’s fiery latest single “Punishment Instructions”.
“”Punishment Instructions” expresses all facets, whether that be positive or negative, of hope, wish and desire. The message expresses the loss of hope due to the uncontrollable actions of others. Punishment Instructions are the side effects of when these immoral actions are resisted.”
“Punishment Instructions” is a hard-hitting metal track that exemplifies everything fans love about the band. As the song’s thought-provoking lyrics examine the effects of trying to resist when others are trying to strip all hope away from you, the heavy rhythms, featuring aggressive guitars, coupled with the aggressive vocals, only add fuel to the rebellious firestorm that is Seething Akira. Warning: This single may induce the urge to jump into your nearest mosh pit. Listen wisely, and use as directed.
“Punishment Instructions” is out now from independent multi-genre music label FiXT.
Seething Akira have developed a gloriously turbulent sound that is uniquely their own. Founded by vocalists Charlie Bowes and Kit Conrad, Seething Akira are a 6-piece electronic nu-core band hailing from the seafront city of Portsmouth, UK that have been tearing venues apart across Europe with their powerful fusion of genres since 2012.
The band’s first full-length album, Sleepy Skeletor, dropped in 2018 and made it clear that Seething Akira would be a force to be reckoned with in the years to come. In late 2020, the band launched a series of new singles leading up to their second album, the highly anticipated Dysfunctional Wonderland. With the strength of the band’s music and their popularity with fans rocketing skyward, they connected with electronic rock label FiXT and forged a partnership for their future releases.
Seething Akira has been featured on the Rock Hard Spotify editorial list, while their single “Firepower” landed on Kerrang Radio and Scuzz. “I Am The Devil” and “The Islander” were both featured on BBC Introducing, and “The Islander” premiered on Soundsphere Magazine.
At home and on the road, Seething Akira have also put their stamp on staple festivals such as Bloodstock, Victorious, Camden Rocks, and many more while touring with bands like The Qemists and The Algorithm. The band dropped the latest album Dysfunctional Wonderland in late 2021 and are now releasing new singles in mid 2022 in the build up to their new album.

One of the most endearing character traits of John Cena’s muscle-bound DC comic book superhero Peacemaker, from HBO’s wildly popular series of the same name, is his love of obscure ‘80s glam metal. From The Quireboys to Firehouse, Faster Pussycat to Pretty Boy Floyd, the series’ soundtrack is brimming with some of the best undiscovered gems of Hollywood’s hairspray-soaked melodic metal!
Now, one of the tracks showcased in Episode 7 of Peacemaker is coming to a limited edition pressing of 7” vinyl! PRETTY BOY FLOYD’s magnificent hard rock anthem “Rock And Roll (Is Gonna Set The Night On Fire)” was originally released on the band’s 1989 classic album Leather Boyz With Electric Toyz, and later re-cut with a more current line-up of the band in 2004. More recently, producer and guitarist extraordinaire Mark Gemini Thwaite created a new mix of the track that amps up the bombast and energy to 11. The track is featured on the A-side of the 7” while a re-cut version of “Leather Boyz” comes as the B-side.

UK goth rock icons ROSETTA STONE are still recording and releasing new material an astounding 30+ years after their founding in the late ‘80s, making them one of the longest running acts of the much-heralded late-‘80s, early-‘90s second wave of gothic music. Recently, the band released an epic 8CD collection of their entire set of studio recordings plus rarities, entitled Anthology 1988-2012, but now the band has dug even deeper into their vault to reveal a treasure trove of fantastic early recordings that showcase the group’s furtive beginnings!
Demos And Rare Tracks 1987-1989 is a collection of vintage recordings, some which RS mainmen Porl King and Karl North made prior to the band’s official debut release, 1989’s Darkness And Light, including one that even features a female vocalist. Several of these tracks were recorded on the much-loved Tascam 4-track recording machine and capture the band’s remarkably precise creative process as well as their ambitious DIY spirit! Just check out the driving, catchy song “Relentless,” which has been released as a single to all digital platforms.
