Watch FATES WARNING’s Music Video For ‘Begin Again’
“Begin Again”, the new music video from FATES WARNING, can be seen below. The song is taken from the band’s latest album, “Long Day Good Night”, which is being released today (Friday, November 6) via Metal Blade Records. FATES WARNING has been a formidable presence in progressive metal for more than 35 years, helping to shape and drive the genre without ever compromising its integrity or losing relevance. They return in 2020 with “Long Day Good Night”, the most epic and longest album of its storied career, mixed by Joe Barresi. “The styles of music we’ve written distinguish this record from the rest of our catalogue,” states vocalist Ray Alder. “There are some songs with electronics and some with a nice ethereal feel, as wel...
TED NUGENT Says GEORGE FLOYD Was ‘A Punk Thug Criminal Who Committed Suicide On Fentanyl’
Outspoken conservative rocker Ted Nugent has defended the fired Minneapolis police officer charged with murder in connection with the death of George Floyd, insisting that the 46-year-old man’s death was allegedly from a drug overdose and not caused by the officer planting his knee in the back of Floyd‘s neck. Floyd was killed in May by police officer Derek Chauvin in an incident caught on camera. Chauvin kneeled on Floyd‘s neck for nearly ten minutes while Floyd was handcuffed. Chauvin was later charged with second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter, but his attorneys argued that Chauvin acted on his training from the Minneapolis Police Department in the use of a “Maximal Restraint Technique” and did so out of conc...

Exhale Last December, Rose underwent surgery for an undisclosed ailment, causing the cancelation of the band’s U.K. shows as the support act for ALTER BRIDGE and SHINEDOWN. In a 2018 interview with CrypticRock.com, Rose admitted that he no longer parties as hard as he once did while on the road with SEVENDUST. “We are not the way that we used to be as far as the self-inflicted damage we put on ourselves with extracurricular stuff,” he said. “Some of the guys are in tip-top shape. Me, I tend t...
SCORPIONS Celebrate 30th anniversary Of ‘Crazy World’ With ‘Fact Video’
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of “Crazy World”, SCORPIONS have released a one-minute “fact video” for their classic album. Check it out below. Earlier in the year, SCORPIONS members Klaus Meine, Rudolf Schenker and Matthias Jabs gave extensive and exclusive interviews to Rock Candy magazine for a huge 16-page cover story feature. Together with respected musician and lyricist Jim Vallance — who co-wrote seven of the album’s 11 tracks — Meine, Schenker and Jabs open up like never before to reveal in forensic detail how the “Crazy World” project came together. “If I’m honest, nothing we’ve done in the past three decades matches ‘Crazy World’,” says vocalist Meine with admirable candor. “I think it’s ...
Lou Barlow Covers PAW Patrol Theme Song
Lou Barlow gets it. As any parent of a toddler knows, the one show that your kids will always tune in for is PAW Patrol. The Dinosaur Jr. guitarist clearly understands, or else why would he cover the theme song of the Nickelodeon TV show? Barlow shared an acoustic take on the show’s theme song, which features a new verse that grovels about going to Target with your young one and being essentially forced to buy them a PAW Patrol toy. “I sing and play the theme then add my own lyrics (warning, there’s one swear word!) if you’re interested in owning this as a 7″ vinyl e.p. order soon!” Barlow wrote in the video’s description. “otherwise this song and 140+ others (including my new LP) will be available digitally thru December .. my youngest child, Izzy, inspired this video, my w...
Watch Oliver Tree’s Wild Performance of Unreleased, Getter-Produced Song on Colbert
While Oliver Tree‘s music alone has garnered him a loyal fanbase, he’s also made a name for himself with his unique style, music videos, live performances, and interviews. On October 30th, the eccentric crooner appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colberti, where he made his own political statement in the form of a surreal performance of his unreleased track “Life Goes On,” produced by Getter. Oliver Tree himself has claimed the performance was “too controversial for live television,” as it includes two actors dressed as presidential candidates Joe Biden and Donald Trump as well as an appearance from collaborator Little Ricky ZR3. All three perform alongside the singer on a set that appears to be a debate stage. Oliver TreeR...
Marshmello’s Gigantic $350,000 Hennessy Velociraptor Truck Was Stolen and Taken for a Joyride
Last year, Marshmello showed off his ludicrous $350,000 modified Ford Raptor, which was later dubbed the “Hennessy Velociraptor.” Earlier this week, however, his public display completely backfired when the truck was stolen from a dealership service bay and found itself in an incredibly anti-climactic car chase. The carjacking occurred around 6:30PM after Marshmello’s manager dropped the eyesore off at the dealership. The suspect allegedly approached the vehicle by bike, tossed his smaller ride in the back, and made off with the truck. Somehow, the monstrosity of a truck wasn’t seen again until 9:30PM, when police began to pursue the vehicle. Check out the clip of the (probably) record-breaking slowest car chase below. To be honest, we’re unsure how...
Papa Khan Drops Stunning “BLOSSOM” EP on Marshmello’s JoyTime Collective
Bass music’s Prodigal Son, Papa Khan, has returned with a massive four-track EP. Doubling down on the explosive success of his breakthrough single “Rain,” the Indonesian young gun has unveiled BLOSSOM, a song-cycle of sublime, innovative electronic music. Papa Khan’s BLOSSOM EP is a natural fit on Marshmello‘s JoyTime Collective banner. Devoid of the saccharine flavors of Mello’s earlier sounds, each of the record’s four tracks knock with a riddim ferocity while remaining under a melodic umbrella. It’s a formula that Papa Khan has concocted with precision, and represents a beautiful dichotomy for bass music fans looking for bass music with substance. After kicking off the project with “Rain,” Papa Khan follows...

Björk Teams With Iceland’s Hamrahhlíð Choir on ‘Cosmogony’
