Marshmello Joins Avril Lavigne On Nostalgic Pop-Punk Track, “Bite Me”
He may not be a “Sk8er Boi,” but Marshmello sure is a superstar—especially after his recent songwriting work on Avril Lavigne‘s new track, “Bite Me.” Released November 10th, it’s the lead single off Lavigne’s forthcoming seventh studio album, due in 2022. Featuring angsty lyricism and frenetic drum breaks courtesy of blink-182’s Travis Barker, “Bite Me” is a classic pop-punk anthem that harkens back to Lavigne’s distinctive early 2000s-era sound. It’s tough not to get nostalgic for afternoons spent browsing the racks at Hot Topic and head-banging to the tunes of Sum 41 and Good Charlotte. Marshmello received a songwriting credit on the single, which also features contributions from Omar Fedi, who is perhaps best k...

J-Pop Singer LiSA Shares New ‘Akeboshi’ Music Video
In keeping with the train theme of the anime’s storyline, the video sees LiSA performing the song in a mysteriously illuminated railroad tunnel. The visuals are superimposed with so-called “Alive Paintings” by artist Akiko Nakayama, a mixture of liquid images that represent the world being depicted in the track. The strength and magnitude of the song’s lyrics are also enhanced by the scene that features the veteran anime songstress singing surrounded by flames in the wilderness at night. LiSA’s “Akeboshi” was released digitally on Oct. 18, and the CD version coupled with “Shirogane” — the ending theme of the same anime — as a double-A-side track is set to drop Nov. 17.

Music’s Latest Supergroup Is an NFT Project With Cartoon Apes
In a press release, the KINGSHIP project is billed as a “landmark, first-ever exclusive agreement to create a metaverse group.” Under the initiative, the team behind 10:22PM — a Web3, creator-focused record label founded by Celine Joshua — will develop and release new KINGSHIP music and products. Akin to pre-existing virtual idols like Miquela (or perhaps even a band like Gorillaz, who hid their human identities behind animated characters), KINGSHIP will be the front-facing digital performer used to cultivate a community and fanbase around the music. Jimmy McNeils, an avid NFT collector who goes by the username j1mmy.eth, is supplying the Apes for KINGSHIP from his personal collection, including the rare Golden Fur and Bluebeam characters. The initiative t...

In a new interview with “R.A. Nation”, ANTHRAX singer Joey Belladonna touched upon the fact that the none of the “Big Four” bands of 1980s thrash metal — METALLICA, ANTHRAX, SLAYER and MEGADETH — sound alike despite the fact that they had a lot of the same influences. He said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): “Speaking of the ‘Big Four’, the whole lineup and that stuff, it was really nice to have differential type of bands and different sounds and vocals and just the whole aura of it all; I love that part.” Joey also attempted to explain how ANTHRAX has managed to keep producing quality music several decades into its career, with many people calling the band’s latest album, 2016’s “For All Kings”, the group’s...

JUDAS PRIEST is ‘Painkiller’; JUDAS PRIEST is ‘British Steel’; JUDAS PRIEST is ‘Screaming For Vengeance’; JUDAS PRIEST is ‘Sin After Sin’. Every album has its own legs, its own metal boots. “We’ve always said that even though we’re a heavy metal band, we don’t let that confine us; we don’t let heavy metal put us in a box,” he c...
