Initially, Scott set up a GoFundMe campaign to help cover the costs of replacing the lost gear and received a rapid wave of support from the rock community. Shinedown and Eric Bass personally stepped in, lending instruments and stage equipment so the band could keep playing shows without a…

In a statement posted on May 3, Morotti said he used “hurtful and disrespectful” language in his April exit post and took responsibility for the impact of his words.

Suffocation later pushed back, saying his claims were false and that he had actually been fired because of scheduling conflicts. In his apology, Morotti said he wished the band nothing but…

Divisive shock rocker Marilyn Manson has landed a guest feature on folk/indie outfit FENCES’ new track “Drugs Like You.” The song leans into acoustic, introspective textures that contrast with Manson’s typically confrontational presence, even though the title hints at self‑destructive tendencies. Manson has been publicly sober in recent years, adding an extra layer of irony and self‑reflection to the collaboration. “Drugs Like You” is the second single from FENCES’ upcoming album ‘Now She’s Long Gone Sun Squint’, due out in June. The album continues the project’s blend of confessional lyricism and alt‑folk arrangements, with Manson’s contribution serving as a darker, almost surreal counterpoint. FENCES offered a cryptic explanation of the track’s…

At The Gates have scored their first‑ever No. 1 album in Sweden with their latest LP, ‘The Ghost of a Future Dead,’ which debuted atop the country’s official album chart after its release on April 24, 2026 via Century Media Records.

Lindberg passed away in September 2025, but the band has carried out his vision for the record, from the title and track order to the overall sound and presentation, turning The Ghost of a Future Dead into what guitarist Jonas Björler has…

Philip Labonte, frontman and founder of All That Remains, is seeing renewed attention paid to his 2024 op‑ed, “The Silent Crisis: Why Society Is Failing Men And Boys,” as newly introduced federal legislation signals growing congressional interest in the pressures facing men and boys in America. The piece has been followed by Capitol Hill meetings where Labonte joined Reps. Nathanial Moran (TX‑1) and Derrick Van Orden (WI‑3), who have introduced legislation aimed at addressing challenges such as dropping male college enrollment, rising disengagement from work and community, and climbing rates of depression, addiction, and suicide among men. Data from the Pew Research Center and National Institute of Mental Health cited in coverage support his claims, showing men now make up…
