ACACIA to Release New Single ‘Danny’s War’ on 24th July

Posted by tarjavirmakari on July 12, 2026
Posted in: Int. News, News. Tagged: ACACIA. Leave a comment

“Danny’s War” is a powerful, emotionally charged rock single from Acacia, blending gritty instrumentation with raw, thought-provoking storytelling. Inspired by modern conflict and Britain’s military history, the track explores the human cost of war – not through politics, but through the eyes of those asked to fight it.

Driven by urgent guitars and anthemic intensity, “Danny’s War” captures both the pride and sacrifice of soldiers, while confronting the frustration and anger surrounding decisions made far from the front line. It’s a song that doesn’t glorify war, but instead shines a light on its consequences — honouring those who serve while questioning the systems that send them.

With its blend of emotional depth and explosive energy, “Danny’s War” positions Acacia as a band unafraid to tackle meaningful subject matter, delivering a track that feels both timely and timeless.

Pre order here: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/acaciauk/dannys-war

Acacia are a South Wales rock band blending gritty riffs, anthemic hooks, and emotionally charged songwriting, quickly building a reputation for high-energy live shows and standout releases. Formerly known as Paisley Parc, the band gained national attention with airplay on BBC Radio Wales, features in Wonderland Magazine, and UK tours.

Their early releases — Complicated, Something On You, and Don’t Play Stupid — were recorded with Grammy-nominated producer Romesh Dodangoda, helping establish their punchy, melodic sound. In late 2024, the band shared stages with Florence Black and Revoker before stepping back to refine their direction and evolve their sound. 

Re-emerging in 2025 as Acacia — a name rooted in Jack Mason and Ieuan Evans’ beginnings on Acacia Avenue — the band entered a new chapter with bass guitarist Connor Jones and drummer John O’Reilly completing the lineup. Acacia marked their arrival with a sold-out hometown headline show in November 2025, signalling a confident new era and growing local demand. Now in 2026, the band are in the studio working with Tristan Thomas (Florence Black), preparing new material and expanding their reach across UK stages and festivals. 

Upcoming appearances include a support slot with Public Order for their Farewell Gig:
1st August 2026 at Clwb Crown, Merthyr Tydfil

Acacia are: Jack Mason, Ieuan Evans and John O’Reilly

Maryland-based metalcore outfit Omen//Skye have released their powerful new single and music video, “Further” available now via Arson Theory.

Blending cinematic atmosphere, crushing riffs, and emotionally charged melodic hooks, Omen//Skye continue to establish themselves as one of the Mid-Atlantic’s most promising heavy acts. Built on the foundation of explosive live performances, the band seamlessly merges the intensity of classic metalcore with the innovation of the genre’s modern wave, forging a sound that is both familiar and unmistakably their own.

Their latest release, “Further,” dives deep into conceptual storytelling, delivering a chilling narrative wrapped in towering guitars, relentless rhythms, and dynamic vocal performances.

“‘Further’ serves as an esoteric warning to anybody searching for knowledge of things they couldn’t possibly comprehend as a human. It’s a conceptual track that speaks from the perspective of an ancient demonic presence that offers an occultist the knowledge he seeks regarding the secrets of the universe, with a cryptic warning that runs parallel to the being’s beckoning,” shares Josh Grzywacz (Guitar/Vocals), writer of “Further”.

The single is accompanied by an equally immersive live performance music video that captures the song’s uncompromising heaviness.

The band sums up the single with one simple invitation:

“Go Further with me…”

As Omen//Skye continue building momentum, they have become known for delivering high-energy performances that leave a lasting impression. Their growing catalog of releases and relentless drive have earned them support slots alongside artists including If Not For Me, Tallah, Resistor, Yosemite In Black, Waking the Cadaver, The Wise Man’s Fear, and Softspoken, positioning the band for continued expansion onto the national touring circuit.

Mixed and mastered by Drew Licurgo and Six:Eight Audio, the single release is distributed via Arson Theory and the band is managed by Core Collective Talent Agency.

“Further” and its official music video are available now via Arson Theory. STREAM “Further” HERE

MALICE IN WONDERLAND Unveil Lost 2006 Track ‘Absinthe Diary’

Posted by tarjavirmakari on July 12, 2026
Posted in: Int. News, News. Tagged: MALICE IN WONDERLAND. Leave a comment

Norwegian goth ’n’ roll band MALICE IN WONDERLAND has opened the vaults with the release of “Absinthe Diary (2006 Recording)” — a previously unheard song that remained hidden for nearly two decades.

Recorded in 2006, shortly after the release of the band’s self-titled debut album, the track was completed but never appeared on an album, EP or single. Newly remastered for 2026, “Absinthe Diary” offers a genuine snapshot of the band during the era that launched their international career.

“There were a few forgotten gems hidden away, and ‘Absinthe Diary’ was simply too good to remain unheard,” says frontman Chris Wicked. “It captures who we were at the time — young, ambitious, slightly reckless and obsessed with creating dark, melodic rock songs.”

The song is one of the bonus tracks featured on Malice In Wonderland (20th Anniversary Deluxe Remastered Edition), set for release on August 8, 2026.

The expanded edition will include a newly remastered version of the band’s cult debut album alongside rare and previously unreleased material from their early years.

Formed in Norway in the mid 1990s, Malice In Wonderland built an international following with their mix of gothic atmosphere, hard rock swagger and infectious melodies. Their debut album became a cult favourite, while songs such as “Lucifer’s Town” gained more than one million plays during the MySpace era.

Two decades later, “Absinthe Diary (2006 Recording)” finally steps out of the shadows.

“Absinthe Diary (2006 Recording)” is out now on all major streaming platforms.

Stream on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/37PGbTlAZSqjuR0UyMmihV

ABOUT MALICE IN WONDERLAND

Norway’s premier goth n’ roll band, Malice In Wonderland, first made waves on the local scene in the late ’90s and early 2000s, before exploding onto the international stage with their 2005 debut album.

Fronted by the enigmatic Chris Wicked, the band quickly built a global following, with fan clubs spanning the world. They toured across Europe and Asia, shared stages with legends like Def Leppard, and appeared in numerous TV shows and productions. Their breakout single “Lucifer’s Town” became a viral hit on MySpace, racking up over a million plays and cementing their cult status.

Following the split of Malice In Wonderland in 2015, Chris Wicked has forged a successful solo career and will continue releasing music under that banner.

PRIDE OF LIONS Release New Album “Unbridled” with Visualizer for ‘I’ll Be Your Rock’

PRIDE OF LIONS, led by Jim Peterik and Toby Hitchcock, are proud to release their new album, ‘Unbridled,’ out now via Frontiers Music Srl. Produced by Jim Peterik and mixed by Larry Millas, ‘Unbridled’ marks the eighth studio album from PRIDE OF LIONS. To mark the release, the band also unveils the new single “I’ll Be Your Rock,” alongside an official visualizer, available below.

On the new track, Jim Peterik shares:

“‘I’ll Be You Rock’ by PRIDE OF LIONS is our song about the strength two people can possess when they join forces as a team. Karen and I will have been husband and wife for 54 years this September 2nd and still going strong. We are truly each other’s fortress. ‘You’ll be my rock- you’ll be my fortress- you’ll be my strength to run any length- my torch in the darkness,’ when you find your soul mate you’ll both be standing tall forever. Rock on!”

With ‘Unbridled,’ legendary AOR torchbearers PRIDE OF LIONS return with their eighth studio album, a commanding statement from one of melodic rock’s most enduring acts. Since their formation in 2003 by Jim Peterik — the songwriting force behind anthems like “Eye of the Tiger” and “The Search Is Over” — and powerhouse vocalist Toby Hitchcock, PRIDE OF LIONS have been celebrated for fusing classic melodic sensibilities with modern rock energy. Over two decades later, they remain at the forefront of the genre, consistently delivering songs that resonate with depth, emotion, and unforgettable hooks.

‘Unbridled’ is a 12-track journey that showcases the band’s remarkable craft. Every element of the lineup shines: Ed Breckenfeld’s driving drums and percussion lay a solid foundation; Mike Aquino’s lead and acoustic guitars deliver both fire and finesse; Bob Lizik’s bass anchors each arrangement with strength and groove; and Jim Peterik’s keyboards and secondary guitar add lush melodic layers. The signature dual vocal performances from Peterik and Hitchcock — alternately commanding, expressive, and harmonically rich — elevate the songs to new heights.

The album is mixed by longtime collaborator Larry Millas, whose work brings clarity, depth, and punch to every track. Standout singles like the title track “Unbridled” — with its striking guitar intro and immediate melodic hook — and “Edge of Forever” underline the band’s ability to craft timeless rock songs that feel both classic and contemporary.

Through ‘Unbridled,’ PRIDE OF LIONS reaffirm their status as masters of melodic rock and AOR. It’s an album that will satisfy longtime fans while serving as a powerful introduction for new listeners, showcasing a band that continues to evolve without ever losing its core identity.

SIGNUM REGIS Reveal New Single & Video ‘Echoes of Glory’ from Upcoming Album

Posted by tarjavirmakari on July 12, 2026
Posted in: Int. News, News. Tagged: SIGNUM REGIS. Leave a comment

SIGNUM REGIS was founded in 2007 and stands for finest melodic Power Metal with both progressive and symphonic elements. Their upcoming new and eighth studio album „Beyond Spacetime“ will be released on October 9th through their new label partner Fireflash Records. 

„Beyond Spacetime“ will feature different vocalists. Among them their current singer Mayo Petranin, who just returned to the band, his successor Jota Fortinho as well as top class names, such as Ripper Owens (ex-JUDAS PRIEST), Matt Smith (THEOCRACY), Ralf Scheepers (PRIMAL FEAR), Johnny Gioeli (HARDLINE, AXEL RUDI PELL), Tasos Lazaris (STEEL ARCTUS, WHITE WIZZARD), David Åkesson (SYMPHONITY, QUANTICE), but also Victor Smolski (ALMANAC, ex-RAGE), with a guitar solo on the first single-release „Throne Of Gold“.  

Today, the band releases their third single and video for the song “Echoes of Glory“, featuring Jota Fortinho & Mayo Petranin. 

Stream/Download the track: https://save-it.cc/fireflash/echoes-of-glory

“As most of our fans know, we started working on the “Beyond Spacetime” album with an incomplete line-up. We didn’t have a permanent singer, so we decided to approach it the same way we did with the “Exodus” album back in 2013, by inviting guest singers. However, then life happened and arranged everything for us in a very special way: during the recording process, we reconnected with two of our former singers, Mayo Petranin and Jota Fortinho, and together we decided it would be amazing to welcome both of them back into the band. To celebrate and highlight this reunion, we did a brand-new song featuring both of them singing together. The title of the song is “Echoes of Glory” This reunion isn’t just for this one track — it’s for the years to come! The line-up you see in the video is the one that will also play live”, comments the band. 

Today, SIGNUM REGIS also kick-off the album pre-order for “Beyond Spacetime“, which is released on a CD Jewelcase (with the exclusive bonus-track “Tell Our Fears Goodbye” feat. Johnny Gioeli on vocals) and on a limited, colored (sunny yellow) Vinyl version, incl. a signed autograph card.

„We are so satisfied and proud of it! Even though the last 3 years were not easy for the band, this is definitely not just a “next” Signum Regis” album, we are a band, we are always aiming to create something special – for us, and for fans“, comments guitarist Filip Koluš, who also mixed and produced the album, having a clear vision, „that it will be completely different compared to our common production and we wanted to keep it in the way we saw it as a musicians. We jumped out of our basic style, we were experimenting with new things in the studio a lot, we teleported King Rex from the ground to space – which sounds crazy, but that’s how it was supposed to be!“ The final mastering was given into the hands of Miro Kiiski (BEAST IN BLACK, HYPOCRISY a.o.), which was another perfect match.

„Beyond Spacetime“ is full of diversity. You will find uptempo power metal hymns, epic and progressive tracks, true metal fist-raisers, neo-classic inspired stuff and beautiful ballads. All the different voices fit perfectly, although this wasn’t supposed in the first place.“Originally, the entire album was supposed to be sung by Jota Fortinho, but unfortunately, in 2024 he decided to leave the band. The album was already 80% instrumentally written and recorded, ready for the vocal recordings. Afterwards, we really wrote a list of singers who, from our perspective, would be ideal for the sound and meaning of each song. We didn’t set any barricades – we also wrote down the names of top singers, in many cases our all-time favourites, on who we basically grew up. We were shocked and extremely happy that we finally approached practically all the singers and none of them turned down the offer! So in the end, we have basically the album of our dreams on the table, as collaborating with singers like Ralf Scheepers, Tim Ripper Owens, Johnny Gioeli or Matt Smith is a dream come true for us. They are all legends and big professionals“, says Filip Koluš, who is also happy that both Jota and Mayo can be heard on the album, even united in the track „Echoes Of Glory“. „Both are super-important for the band and we are like a family. Jota did an awesome performance in 2 songs, but unfortunately his personal situation is not allowing him to be a part of our band right now. Mayo is our brother, he was singing in SR during probably the most successful periods of the band until now. Nowadays, we are having live rehearsals together. We are sure that Mayo will be our lead singer for the upcoming gigs.“

SIGNUM REGIS was always connected to fantasy lyrics, legends and myths. On „Beyond Spacetime“ they even go further, right into space, but also back in time. „Just as much as with the music, on the new album we pushed the envelope with the lyrics as well. On „Beyond Spacetime“ they reflect both personal and universal experiences. You will certainly find some of the most daring, introspective lyrics ever to appear on our albums. We did not hold back! At the same time, some tracks open gates to the most intense challenges ever relevant to any human being throughout history. While the title track has indeed placed us on a star map of the universe, with another we ended up falling deep down to the bottom of the rabbit hole. Buckle up, folks“, says Tommy König, who wrote parts of the lyrics.

The songs of the album sound fresh, but few of them have a long history behind, just like „Midnight Train“, „Back To Zero“, „Throne Of Gold“ a.o. They somehow went beyond spacetime. „The diversity of the new album is also reflected in the timeline within which the individual songs were originally composed. You can find some great songs there that were recorded many years ago by the band that preceded Signum Regis, but have now been rearranged to fit our style. The first one, ‘Throne of Gold’, is a pounding anthem featuring a guitar solo by Victor Smolski and vocals by our great friend Matt Smith, well known from Theocracy. The second one, a real banger called ‘Back to Zero’, was written by our original drummer and a great friend of ours, Luděk Struhař. Then there is a whole collection of songs Filip composed in his teenage years. ‘Midnight Train’, originally an instrumental piece played on classical guitar, has now been rearranged with vocals and nostalgically tells the story of an old man waiting for his last train. ‘Into the Rabbit Hole’ and ‘A Dream or Two’ are also part of this group. On top of that, there is a whole bunch of brand-new tracks reflecting the period that more or less followed the Undivided release: ‘Time to Pay’, ‘Waterfall’, ‘Morning Dawn’ and ‘Beyond Spacetime’. Finally, there are two tracks that stand out because of the stories behind them. ‘Tell Our Fears Goodbye’ is an acoustic piece composed by Filip and dedicated to his wife, while ‘Echoes of Glory’ features a duet sung by both Mayo and Jota.”

„Beyond Spacetime“ is rounded up by an excellent artwork from Uwe Jarling, known for his work for acts like HEAVEN’S GATE, GRAVE DIGGER or recently FRONT ROW WARRIORS. „Uwe will always be special to us! With „Undivided“ he created an iconic image, bringing to life the character representing our band, King Rex. Compared to „Undivided“, where we relied heavily on his advice, „Beyond Spacetime“ resulted from intensive communication in which every detail was discussed and agreed upon. Fortunately, Uwe has been extremely supportive throughout the process, and the result is nothing short of awesome! We are definitely a band that considers the artwork a very important part of our artistic vision. Over the years this approach has only grown stronger, so having a real cover artist has become an absolute must for us“, comments Tommy.

SIGNUM REGIS will celebrate their 20th anniversary next year. „Beyond Spacetime“ already feels like kind of a best-of journey through their past, present and future. „We grew up on the values of traditional melodic metal – this focus will most probably never change“, says Filip Koluš and explains: „At the same time, we are also a group of great friends, who have a common goal – to make the best quality metal music together. We never set any barriers, as we believe that music should be an art and freedom first and foremost. Proof of this is our new album, which sounds mostly very different from our previous releases. Despite this, we are absolutely proud of it and the result was fully under control from the beginning to the end of the process, which took around 3 years. What to expect in the future? We do not know exactly, but we will stick to our values for sure.“

Signum Regis are:
Mayo Petranin – Lead and backing vocals
Filip Koluš – Guitars
Ronnie König – Bass
Ján Tupý – Keyboards, backing vocals
Jaro Jančula – Drums

Mötley Crüe remains a huge global draw 43 years into their career, wrapping up a two-year stadium world tour in late 2023. In 2024, the band ushered in a brand-new era, signing to Big Machine Records and releasing the single “Dogs of War.” 2025 saw Mötley Crüe return to the Las Vegas Strip for the band’s third Sin City residency – the first one since 2013 – with ten nights at Dolby Live at Park MGM. Mötley Crüe will celebrate their 45th anniversary in 2026 with a massive North American Tour between July and September.
