In late October Diamonds to Dust announced they would be releasing their 6th full length studio release, “Echoes of Grace and Strife” on December 19th through Manifest Records.

Michael Felker of Convictions)” below and let us know if youre looking forward to this one!… Continued →

This past Friday, Sonny Sandoval dropped a third song from his upcoming solo album, “Sonny Dread”. The track, “Keep Moving” features P.O.D.’s own Marcos Curiel and is a straight up reggae track and is a great fit with the other 2 songs already released. Check it out below and see what you think.… Continued →

Back in September, P.O.D. released their cover of The Beatles’ “Don’t Let Me Down” to digital retailers and streaming sites. The track gives the song that special P.O.D. flavor and has been well received by fans of both bands. This past weekend, the band has added another dimension to the release and dropped an official music video for it. Check it out below and leave your thoughts in the comments!… Continued →

Recently, we shared news of 2 singles released by P.O.D.’s own Sonny Sandoval that would feature on his debut solo release, but at the time, we had no further info on the details of the release.   This past weekend Sonny took to social media to share that the release, titled “Sonny Dread”, will be a full length reggae album (10 songs in all) and is set to drop on December 11th. You can pre-save it at your streaming service of choice.… Continued →

Seth Davey, formerly of Attalus, has released a new album, “Words In the Wounds”, which follows up last year’s release, “Kingdom Rising”. “Words In the Wounds” seems to be a good bit more upbeat than “Kingdom Rising” and is full of songs of praise and faith in God. This album is sure to please fans of Seth’s previous works across the board.   The release is now streaming and available on all digital retailers, but consider supporting the artist by picking up the album HERE.… Continued →

Chasing Victory is back with a brand new track that’s a real scorcher! “Unrequited Love II” picks up right where their full length, “I Call This Abandonment” left off  just over 20 years ago.

Sonny Sandoval, known for fronting P.O.D. and founding the Whosoevers, has dropped two tracks ahead of the release of a full album under the moniker, “Sonny Dread”. “Sleeping Lion” is a full on reggae track, while “Talk To God” leans more towards hip hop, though not completely. It’s a tough track to describe using a particular genre, but on both of these, Sonny’s mic skills are on full display. Check these out and let us know what you think!… Continued →

Grace Graber has been dropping some great punk covers these days and today she dropped a cover of Forrest Frank’s “Lemonade”. Would love to hear a lot more from her in this style, she has a real knack for it and it’s a sound that’s sorely lacking. So check this out, as well as her other music!… Continued →

Sent By Ravens have posted a tease to a return on their social media. All signs point to the release of another ep or album, but who knows, maybe we’ll get some shows out of it as well. Who would be psyched to get some new Sent By Ravens?? https://www.facebook.com/share/r/17eM1ant5F/… Continued →

Today, Skillet dropped their first Christmas song (and music video), “O Come, O Come Emmanuel”. The track largely focuses on a beautiful, melodic sound befitting most Christmas covers, but then turns on the heat, providing what may very well be the heaviest part of any Skillet song to date. This track is a perfect add to anyone’s holiday playlist. Give it a listen and tell us what you think!… Continued →

Hey guys, there’s been a few new albums and other notable news that’s dropped lately, so I thought I’d just share a few with a couple thoughts, and maybe introduce a few new bands to you that you haven’t had the chance to check out yet as well. Sorry if there’s 1 or 2 that were recently posted, just take them twice as serious.   1. We’ve got the new/renewed album, “Nevertake” by Anberlin. This album is a recreation of Never Take Friendship Personal, only this time with Matty Mullins on the mic.… Continued →

Seth Davey, formerly of Attalus, has released a new song, “When My Mind Runs Back”. The piano driven track speaks of how God remains faithful even in the midst of all our distractions, misgivings, when we act out, etc. He is always there, eager to welcome us back onto the right track whenever we go astray. And this is far from the only release from Seth since Attalus. There is a treasure trove of music you can find on bandcamp, Spotify, and other digital retailers. Check out this track as well as his other music and leave your thoughts!… Continued →

Magdalene Rose, formerly of Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh, has dropped a new single titled, “Hey, At Least I’m Feeling Something”.  Check it out below! The track is pretty eclectic, featuring heavy guitars, some easycore/pop-punk feeling moments. This coupled with Maggie’s melodic, yet driving vocals make for an audible one-two punch sure to please long-time fans while garnering some new ones in the process. But the heart of the song is found in the lyrics, which deal with the heavy subject of cutting. Very well crafted songwriting for such a weighty subject matter.… Continued →

Then It Ends, featuring members of A Past Unknown and Dividing the Masses, have been at it since around 2020 putting out some really incredible music!

1. Lacey Sturm – Kenotic Metanoia: This November Lacey Sturm released her first album in nearly 8 years. To say it was worth the wait is an understatement. If it’s going to take 8 years to release a new album, this is the caliber release you want to shoot for. Lacey sounds as good as ever and has dropped an exceptional album here. It easily outshines her previous release, Life Screams, and is, in my opinion, her best work to date, including her material with Flyleaf.… Continued →
