Promo shot

Band: TOOTH
Who: Young London gunslingers ready
to conquer the British indie scene.

Tom Pollock (frontman) told DIY Magazine: “Lots of bands from the ‘90s have
had this massive resurgence, kids are craving their own generation’s version of that.
Kids nowadays want to claim something that’s their own and not have to look back
into the past.

Track: THE AGE OF INNOCENCE

Standout blast from their brand new 5-track EP, called Restless In Bloom.

The age of innocence is long gone. Nowadays, cityscapes and picture-painting
inspire Pollock, still writing with a “confusion and restlessness”, only through
the lens of a 21-year-old Londoner.

TUTV: Resolute aplomb, big guitars, thumping sound, itching vocals,
anthemic tunes. Afire adolescent Britrock for adolescent music junkies.

Standout blast from their brand new 5-track EP, called Restless In Bloom.

CELL GAMES – Irish Nu-Metal Blasterers Hit Hard With Their New Doomsday Slam ‘HELLWORLD’

Posted on by JL

Vitalizing tunes that work faster than a stream of caffeine

9 June 2026

Band: CELL GAMES
Who: 4-piece who are the proud torch carriers for Irish Nu-Metal since
their inception in 2021. The band rip up the rule book, avoiding the pitfalls
of any troupes and preconceived notions of the genre, spitting back their
own inimitable sound.

Pop culture references are a red thread that run throughout the Cell Games
catalogue so it’s unsurprising that their name came from the humble beginnings
of Dragon Ball Z marathon.

Track: HELLWORLD

TUTV: From the kick-off, your head gets crushed by a thunderous sonic force of nature empowered by schizo guitars and a fanatical drummer. Demonian howls accentuate this bursting belter’s ominous theme. Doomsday is just around the corner. No exit way. We’re trapped.

It’s the end of the world as we know it, and it feels cell games fine.

4 June 2026

Band: EVIL ISLAND
Who: A new American trash team featuring members of post-hardcore hooligans
The Blood Brothers – Johnny Whitney, Cody Votolato, and Mark Gajadhar – and OFF!.

Johnny Whitney: “Evil Island was born out of the firestorm of creative energy that
Cody, Mark and I felt when The Blood Brothers reunion tour ended in 2024. My brain
was on fire, I was gripped with a kind of mania. I had so many ideas rattling around
in my skull that if I didn’t make something new with my friends, the psychic damage
probably would’ve manifested as some exotic form of cancer.

Track: ANIMAL
2nd single from their upcoming debut LP, named
Terraform The Afterlife, out Aug 14th. Order here.

TUTV: Beastie shit. Schizoprenic harum-scarum.
All together now A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-N-I-M-A-L!

TOM & Son MORELLO Team Up With SERJ TANKIAN To Rage Against The Machine With Burst ‘ADJOURN IT’

Press shot

Former RAGTM guitarist TOM MORELLO is non-stop
active, tackling Trump‘s catastrophic administration.

He took part in the Minneapolis protests against the ICE raids that claimed
the lives of Alex Pretti and Renee Good, he joined ‘No Kings’ demonstrations in
New York, and he expresses his views on the White House policies regularly,
loud and clear, on social media.

He’s also the man behind a massive, unique, one-day event, under the banner
‘A Day Of Peace, Love, Justice and Music’ programmed for Oct 3, in Columbia, MD.

And he teamed up now with his 15-year-old son Roman (on guitar, like his dad)
and System Of A Down frontman SERJ TANKIAN for a cast-iron, anti-tyranny rant,
titled ADJOURN IT. It will feature on Morello‘s new, upcoming full-length.

Morello: “At this historical juncture every act of art is an act of resistance and ‘Adjourn It’,
a collaboration with long time friend Serj Tankian and my 15-year-old guitar wiz son Roman,
is a clarion call for justice in unjust times.

“Produced by Zakk Cervini, this latest tune from my upcoming solo album combines multi-generational bulldozer riffs with the great Serj’s prophetic wailings. Inspired by the persecution of immigrants across the land and the heroic resistance to the rising tide of fascism it’s just about damn time to rock for freedom, justice and equality.”

Get up, stand up, and rage against the machine, people.

L.A.-based bombastic rock duo A PERFECT CIRCLE, guitarist Billy Howerdel
and Tool vocalist Maynard James Keenan (also part of Puscifer), got together
in 1999. So far, they nailed 4LPs, with Eat The Elephant from 2018 as the
most recent one.

Now ahead of an European tour APC
offer a new track, called STARLESS.

It follows Kindred, a song they contributed to
a 3-split EP with Primus and Puscifer in 2024.

Howerdel: “Some songs get kicked around and massaged for years.
But once in a while, one takes shape quickly, as if it had been there
all along.”

All you fanatic fans, wake up,
and get back in the circle.

Let the guitars wail.

22 May 2026

British far-out famous rockers NOTHING BUT THIEVES
know damn well what it takes to make masses go bonkers.

Thus far, they have 4 mega-selling albums on their résumé.

Although no details of a new LP were revealed, today’s arrival of brand new
belter EVOLUTION is highly-probably the harbinger for a new longplayer.

NBT do it again. Loud and proud. Evolution is a head-and-hair-twisting
guitar-motorized rocket that drives you mad in the end. Frantic and
frenetic. Thunder-and-lightning euphoria.

Definitely not a moment for a nap, people.

MOTHER Screams Her Heart And Lungs Out On Titanic Debut Slam ‘UNHOLY’

Posted on by JL

20 May 2026

Artist: MOTHER
Who: Mysterious debutante. Present on all social
media, but without any specific, personal data.

“Music is the closest thing to creating life I’ll ever know. Every song I write is born from pain, obsession, and survival. When someone truly connects to it, they become part of that creation – not as a listener, but as family. That bond isn’t blood. It’s devotion. That’s why MOTHER isn’t just a name to me – it’s an ideology.”

Track: UNHOLY

“When I wrote ‘Unholy’, I was drowning quietly. Every part of my life felt as though it was rotting at the edges — relationships, mental health, identity, survival. I couldn’t tell whether the voice inside me wanted salvation or self-destruction anymore. I only knew some part of me wanted to disappear. The emptiness, the fractured sense of identity, the feeling of becoming a stranger inside your own body.

“There’s a grief within ‘Unholy’ that mourns a version of myself I’m not even sure ever truly existed. That’s the cruelty of BPD and dissociation — you begin to question your own memories, your own emotions, your own reflection.”

TUTV: (Un)holy shit! What a titanic debut slam this is. Think the metallic symphonic grandeur and orchestral vocality of Within Temptation and Nightwish, the schizophrenic post-hardcore howling of Bring Me The Horizon, and the visual charisma of Alice Glass. Sounds colossal, right? You betcha. Mother screams her heart and lungs out. Sonic exorcism.
