Just 2 weeks from today will be the 20th anniversary of Mutemath’s self-titled debut album. So, this past week when the band’s profile pic was updated (with no caption), speculation abounded. No announcement has been made at this time, but it sure seems like they have something up their sleeve to celebrate it. What do you think it is? … Continued →

Last May Run Kid Run dropped a post about their debut album turning 19.

Check out the post at the link below and if you’re able to host these guys, its sure to be well worth it! Great band, great album. Who’d turn up for some Run Kid Run shows??

With 2025 behind us, we turn our attention forward to some of what 2026 will hold.

What are you looking forward to most??… Continued →

The Letter Black have announced the release of not one, but two new full length albums with a total of 20+ songs. The albums, titled “Paper” and “Ink” will feature two different sounds according to the band. No specific release date has been given at this time, but it’s said to be coming soon.

All in all, I thought 2025 was a pretty good year for music! There were a few bands I’d hoped to hear some new material from and didn’t. There were a few I didnt expect to hear from whatsoever…but we did! Then, there were even a few new bands and artists I’d never heard of before who popped up on the radar and made some really great music! As we move into 2026, I most certainly have some big expectations for the new year, as I have for years and years prior, but will they be met?… Continued →

The Letter Black have posted a cryptic teaser on their socials with a TV displaying static and the date 1/1/26. New music perhaps? What do you think?? Who wants to hear some more from The Letter Black??… Continued →

Peyton Parrish released a pretty great album, “Evangelcore1” earlier this month. I most often get strong Disturbed vibes from it. Check out the new music video for “Gates Of Glory” below.… Continued →

Before there was Mutemath, there was Earthsuit. Fronted by Paul Meany, Earthsuit was a rather eclectic band, ahead of its time in a number of ways, but unfortunately disbanded in 2003. While “Kaleidoscope Superior” saw commercial release in 2000 and is still beloved by many 25 years later, the band’s followup, “The Rise Of Modern Simulation” was released independently and is a little tougher to come by, except perhaps on YouTube.   Last week, Paul Meany announced the release of the first remastered single off “The Rise Of Modern Simulation” which you can find on digital and streaming services and check out below.… Continued →

Christian Deathcore band, With Blood Comes Cleansing, gifted us a new single, titled “Indomitable” for Christmas. The track is everything fans of the band have come to love over the years. Heavy hitting, immense riffs, and versatile screams and guttural growls serve up this deathcore declaration of faith. Check it out at the link below.  … Continued →

Chasing Victory has done it again, dropping another new single titled, “Renegade” (see below). The track comes out swinging, but relents slightly in the choruses, making way for some really melodic vocal leads that are especially catchy. The vocals on this track sound amazing. The guys just might have plans for more music ahead, who’d be psyched for that??   Oh, and head HERE to get merch, updates, an d more from the band.… Continued →

No Treaty took to social media earlier this evening to announce the band will not be continuing, thanking their friends and fans for their support. See their post below. https://www.instagram.com/p/DSYVw7rEcBk/?igsh=MXQ2cHVleTZ0ZjlicQ==… Continued →

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. Since then, the band has dropped 3 tracks off the upcoming release and it sounds like it’s going to be a scorcher! Check out “Consequence Of Our Transgressions”, “A Shadow Cast Eternally”, and “The White Rabbits Nightmare (ft. 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 →

Over the past year, Clint Lowery of Sevendust has come to a place of faith in Christ and has not been shy about sharing his journey whether via his socials or in a variety of different interviews.   More recently, he has discussed how his newfound faith has affected him personally as well as his songwriting and how it impacted the recently completed Sevendust album, set for release in 2026.   Check out the interview he recently did with ChurchLeaders below, and be sure to keep Clint and all the guys in Sevendust in prayer.… 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. The band has plans for another single, “Renegade”, to drop on December 19th. Get merch, sign up for email, and a whole lot more at Chasing Victory 2025.… Continued →

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! The band just released a deluxe edition of 2024’s “Closure”. The release features 3 unreleased tracks to cap off an already impressive album, which includes guest appearances from Nick Detty of Wolves at the Gate and Michael Felker of Convictions (catch the video below). Have you checked it out yet? What do you think?  … Continued →
