To celebrate the release of their highly anticipated debut album, The Zac Schulze Gang are pleased to announce they will perform a special concert at the legendary 100 Club in London’s West End on Thursday September 25th.
The 100 Club show follows the band’s April 2025 UK headline tour that includes sold-out concerts at London’sThe Grace (April 4), and Brighton’sPrince Albert (April 14). Tickets for all other April UK dates are available from www.zacschulzegasng.rocks/tour.
“We can’t wait to headline 100 Club in September for our album launch show,” Says Zac “We’ve been working hard on this record for the past year, writing it on the road, and recording it live in the studio with Ian Sadler. It will be great to finally play these songs for the very first time at the show.”
Continues Zac, “We’re honoured to be headlining the same room as many of our heroes. We’ll be launching a full-frontal assault of our own brand of punked-up blues rock at the 100 Club, and we can’t wait to see you there.”
The news follows the band’s recent singles “I Won’t Do This Anymore” and “Woman” that were playlisted on the UK’s classic rock radio station, Planet Rock.
Known for their old-school blend of 70s classic blues rock and modern alternative influences, the Kent-based band have steadily built a loyal following who are fans of energetic, raw-to-the-bone live shows.
Current single, “I Won’t Do This Anymore,” finds the power trio storming the UK blues scene with a track tailor-made for the working-class heroes. Their signature sound combines classic British R&B sound with punk bravado, hi-octane energy, and loads of dynamite.
Released on Friday September 26th, the Gang’s highly anticipated debut album sees the band working with producer Ian Sadler at Really BIG Audio. Ian has captured the band’s raw-to-the-bone live energy whilst pushing them to their absolute limits especially when it comes to Zac’s signature ripping solos and the band’s songwriting ability as heard on “I Won’t Do This Anymore.” Sadler is also responsible for the production on the band’s previous single “Woman” which was played on Planet Rock for 15-consecutive weeks.
Fronted by guitarist/vocalist Zac Schulze and backed up by bassist Anthony Greenwell and drummer Ben Schulze; the Gang’s sound and work ethic harks back to the much-loved live dynamic and relentless touring schedules of 70s icons including Rory Gallagher and Dr Feelgood. Their unique sound also embodies elements of heritage classic rock acts including AC/DC and Thin Lizzy, while giving a firm salute to contemporary influences like Royal Blood and Queens of the Stone Age.
The Gang have made lasting impressions at esteemed festivals including Eric Clapton’s Crossroads in LA, Planet Rock’sWinter End in 2023 and Fairport’s Cropredy Festival, and the Rory Gallagher Tribute Festival in Ballyshannon where the band first exploded onto the scene.
The Zac Schulze Gang recently won ‘UK Emerging Artist of the Year’ at the 2024 UK Blues Awards. Newly sold-out shows in Netherlands, Germany and most recently London are proof of the gang’s rising popularity around the world as well as newly announced headline festival slots at the 2025 Rory Gallagher Festival in Ballyshannon, Ireland, and the UK’s Broadstairs Blues Bash.

Time To Kill Records is proud to announce the signing of TOXIC YOUTH!
The Italian crossover veterans are gearing up to release a brand-new full-length album, set to breathe new life into their signature high-energy blend of hardcore and thrash. With their unmistakable groove and raw intensity, TOXIC YOUTH are ready to take their crossover sound to the next level. Stay tuned for more details!
Biography:
TOXIC YOUTH is a hardcore/crossover band from Milan, Italy, active since 1990. Founded by Cristian (guitar) and Max (drums), they were soon joined by Ale (Boo Ya) and, after a few lineup changes, Novo on bass. Their sound blends hardcore and thrash influences, delivering high-energy, raw performances.
In 1993, they recorded their self-titled demo at Jungle Sound Studio in Milan with Fabio Magistrali (Ritmo Tribale, Afterhours), selling 500 copies and gaining traction in the underground scene. Their intense live activity saw them share the stage with RKL, D.O.A., Beastie Boys, and Franky Hi-Nrg.
After signing with NoWayRec., they recorded their debut album but ultimately self-released “Real Attitudes, Not Words!!” in 1995, selling over 1,000 copies. They toured alongside Extrema, Insidia, Lacuna Coil, and Sadist, playing major festivals like Beach Bum Festival with Faith No More and Tiamat. Despite a strong fan base, internal struggles led to their disbandment in 2007.
In 2018, TOXIC YOUTH reunited with new drummer Hicham (Calibro 9, Cattiva Condotta) and returned to the stage, supporting acts like Sick Of It All, Siberian Meat Grinder, and Raw Power. Signing with WTF Records, they released “Back To You-th” in 2020, followed by a 2023 reissue with a bonus track. That same year, they released a 12” split vinyl with Odpisani, titled “Walkin’ Free Towards A Better Tomorrow”.
Now stronger than ever, TOXIC YOUTH continues to bring their relentless energy to the hardcore scene.
Line-up:
Ale – Vocals Cristian – Guitar Novo – Bass Hicham – Drums

Prepare for an all-out sonic assault as INCITE return with their latest earth-shattering single, ‘No Mercy No Forgiveness.’ A relentless barrage of crushing riffs, thunderous grooves, and venomous vocals, this track is a war cry for the broken, the enraged, and the unstoppable. Fuelled by unbridled fury and a refusal to bow, INCITE deliver a firestorm of aggression, ripping through the silence with hammering precision.
Their upcoming album “Savage New Times,” set for release on August 15, 2025 via Reigning Phoenix Music, promises to be the heaviest, most unforgiving chapter in their legacy. With razor-sharp guitars, bone-crushing breakdowns, and riot-inciting anthems, this record is built for battle – unyielding, unrelenting, and unapologetically brutal. No mercy. No forgiveness. No turning back. Stay tuned.
Frontman Richie Cavalera comments on the single: “‘No Mercy No Forgiveness’ is an absolute monster. This song is pure, unfiltered aggression – exactly what we wanted to bring to the metalheads. Lyrically, I found myself so worried about other people’s opinions which resulted in a lot of personal failure. Once you show no mercy to achieving your dreams, everyone’s words become silent.”
Founded in Phoenix, Arizona in 2004 by frontman Richie Cavalera, INCITE blend groove and thrash metal with a raw, relentless edge. With Lennon Lopez on drums and EL on bass, the band have honed its unyielding sound across multiple albums, evolving with each release. Their punishing intensity is amplified by producer Steve Evetts (THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN, HATEBREED) and mixer Arthur Rizk (SOULFLY, MUNICIPAL WASTE), while striking artwork by Marcelo Vasco (SLAYER, KERRY KING) captures their ferocity. Known for their relentless touring, INCITE have conquered stages worldwide, sharing bills with DEVILDRIVER and SIX FEET UNDER, and proving their grit – like driving 500 miles through a blizzard to make a show. The addition of guitarist Layne Richardson has injected fresh energy, elevating both their live performances and songwriting. With sheer determination and raw talent, INCITE have carved out a place in modern thrash, dominating every stage with their unbreakable, unforgiving sound.

Cleveland’s favorite filth metal practitioners, MIDNIGHT, will unleash Steel, Rust And Disgust on May 23rd via Metal Blade Records.
One-man-army, Athenar, has been spewing out an ungodly racket, dropping countless demos, splits, EPs, and LPs and ultimately slaying the metal/punk underground with his own addictive brand of lust, grime, and sleaze for over two decades. The Steel, Rust And Disgust collective follows last year’s chart topping Hellish Expectations full-length and features ten unique cover tracks alongside two new cuts.
Athenar comments, “The idea to record an album of all cover jams with a certain theme is nothing quite new. The original title for this album was gonna be Throw Ups as an homage to the David Bowie’s Pin Ups album, also of covers. Although Throw Ups is only two syllables and I need six. I guess I could’ve called it Throw Downs Throw Outs Throw Ups, but that would be just fucking stupid.
“I just wanted to record some songs by bands who shared the same sights, sounds, and sewage of my region of birth,” he continues. “Some of these tunes you may have heard, some you may have not. So please, do yourself a favor and check out the original versions… if you want to transform into a total fucking slimebag that is!“
In advance of the record’s official release, today MIDNIGHT presents the original track, “Cleveland Metal.” Notes Athenar, “‘Cleveland’ and ‘metal.’ Those two words flow together like molten steel. This title was directly taken from a compilation album of the same name released in 1983 on Clubside Records, pre Auburn Records. The song was written as an erotic love letter to the cursed city whence I was thrusted upon and its fellow inhabitants of subhumans.”
