It’s a typically wet day at the end of a typical British Summer. The location is a nice hotel in West London, and Trivium bassist Paolo Gregoletto is filling us in on what some of their European press encounters have been like before we get down to business. A short time later, he is joined…
While the world is (still) waiting for new Tool material, Maynard James Keenan’s other musical endeavour A Perfect Circle have dropped a surprise bombshell of a new track in the early hours of this morning. Having previously teased something over the last couple of days, the new single arrived while most of us were still…
Fozzy are one of those bands who over the last decade or so have straddled the fence between hard rock and metal very effectively. With The Duke, Rich Ward and Chris Jericho as the co-captains of the band, they’ve come out with some great singles and a couple of really great albums (and several more…

The black metal royalty, led by Ihsahn will make their second appearance at BOA and first since they headlined in 2014. Not just…
Somehow, it’s been almost a month since our last video of the week, so we thought we better do something about that. Here’s five brand new videos vying for the crown of the latest Rock Sins video of the week contest! Kicking things off this week are one of the UK’s hottest rock properties at…
It was only a matter of time with new music starting to emerge before 30 Seconds To Mars got back on the road. That expectation has now been confirmed with the band’s first full UK arena tour announced to take place in March 2018. Jared, Shannon and Tomo will be playing five arena shows across…
Oh HOW the Alter Bridge Nation (as their fans are called) have waited for this. Ever since it was announced just after Download Festival 2017 (read our chat with AB drummer Scott Phillips on the matter here) that Alter Bridge were going to “do a Metallica” and perform with an orchestra, those lucky enough to…
