    Dropkick Murphys recently announced they’ll release a 12” vinyl split LP with tourmates Haywire titled New England Forever. The Boston-based bands–who got to know each other while touring Europe together last fall–each recorded three original songs as well as a cover version of one of each other’s songs for the 8-song LP. Haywire recorded Dropkick Murphys’ “The Boys Are Back” and Dropkick Murphys recorded Haywire’s “Always By My Side.” New England Forever will be available exclusively at shows during Dropkick Murphys’ February 9 – March 17 For The People…In The Pit St. Patrick’s Day Tour.

    Dropkick Murphys are touring in support of their acclaimed 2025 For The People album, which shows courage and confidence, speaking up against the injustices happening in the United States, and doing so with the strength and power that harkens back to Dropkick Murphys’ earliest punk rock roots. For The People is more than a title. It’s a heartfelt stance, a declaration of who this band is – and who they’ve always been. Dropkick Murphys continue to advocate for workers’ rights and human rights – as they have done for their entire nearly 30-year career.

    Dropkick Murphys are:

    Ken Casey (vocals)

    Tim Brennan (guitars, tin whistle, accordion, piano, vocals)

    Jeff DaRosa (guitars, banjo, mandolin, vocals)

    Matt Kelly (drums, percussion, vocals)

    James Lynch (guitars, vocals)

    Kevin Rheault (bass)

    Campbell Webster (bagpipes and Uilleann pipes)

    About Dropkick Murphys: Dropkick Murphys proudly remain Boston’s rock ‘n’ roll underdogs turned champions. Since 1996, the boys have created the kind of music that’s meant to be chanted at last call, in packed arenas, and during the fourth quarter, third period, or ninth inning of a comeback rally. Their celebrated discography includes four consecutive Billboard top 10 album debuts (Turn Up That Dial, 11 Short Stories Of Pain & Glory, Signed and Sealed in Blood, Going Out In Style), along with 2005’s Certified-Gold album The Warrior’s Code featuring the double platinum classic “I’m Shipping Up To Boston.” Whether you caught a legendary gig at The Rathskeller (The Rat) under Kenmore Square, found the band by taking the T to Newbury Comics to cop Do Or Die in ’98, discovered them in Martin Scorsese’s Academy Award winning The Departed, or saw ‘em throw down at Coachella (or one of hundreds of other festivals), you’ve become a part of their extended family. Dropkick Murphys’ music has generated half-a-billion streams, they’ve quietly moved 8 million-plus units worldwide and the band has sold out gigs on multiple continents. Dropkick Murphys’ official charity, The Claddagh Fund, has raised millions of dollars to support non-profit organizations that are focused on children, veterans and addiction recovery. In 2020, the band was one of the first to embrace streaming performances, starting with their Streaming Up From Boston St. Patrick’s Day virtual performance. It was followed by their landmark Streaming Outta Fenway livestream, which drew more than 5.9 million viewers and held the #3 spot on Pollstar’s “Top 2020 Live Streams” chart. Dropkick Murphys St. Patrick’s Day Stream 2021…Still Locked Down, was #1 on Pollstar’s Livestream chart for the week ending March 22, 2021, logging over 1 million views. Dropkick Murphys returned in 2022 with their first-ever all-acoustic album, This Machine Still Kills Fascists (Dummy Luck Music / Play It Again Sam), and seated theater tour. This Machine Still Kills Fascists–and their follow-up album Okemah Rising–breathe musical life into mostly unpublished lyrics by the legendary Woody Guthrie, curated for the band by Woody’s daughter Nora Guthrie. Dropkick Murphys’ current album For The People rises to its moment: an expression of humanity at a time of relentless dehumanization, a promise of hope in an era fueled by fear-mongering, a declaration of solidarity in an age of disunion, a defiant rebuttal to the charlatans and demagogues who seek to divide us for their own power and profit.

    New York, NY (January 6, 2026) – LA-based Stitched Up Heart has announced their upcoming full-length album, MEDUSA, available June 12.  In addition to the album announcement, the band delivers another iconic rock anthem with “GLITCH BITCH” featuring Conquer Divide, a tribute to internet-era confidence, where online identity becomes a space for fearless self-expression. Driven by heavy guitar and a bold attitude, the song captures emotions of navigating the digital world. Formed in 2010 by powerhouse vocalist Alecia “Mixi” Demner, the band is known for blending heavy riffs, anthemic choruses, and introspective lyrics. This marks the first release from the band as part of their newly inked a deal with Judge and Jury Records, the powerhouse record label founded by esteemed producer Howard Benson and Three Days Grace drummer, Neil Sanderson.  

    “‘GLITCH BITCH’ is a love letter to every fierce e-girl baddie out there shattering expectations, and leaving a trail of broken hearts in your digital wake,” Stitched Up Heart shares, and continues, “You’re the queens of turning pixels into power, and making the internet pretty. Reminding us all that code is confidence and beauty’s a weapon.” 

    Howard Benson adds “When I heard the amazing forward-thinking record Mixi recorded with Cameron Mizell, I immediately loved the track ‘GLITCH BITCH’! The video was fun to shoot and having Kiarely and Kristen from Conquer Divide on it just ramps up the excitement.”

    Singing “This is for the twisted e-girl misfits”, the band leans into their known audiences, even in the music video. Casted with Kiarely + Kristen from Conquer Divide and several popular goth/emo influencers, the music video follows the band as the night unfolds at a house party, with tattoo artist Miao inking guests amid the chaos.

  • PUSCIFER RELEASE “IMPETUOUS”; PREVIEW “TALES FROM THE PUSCIVERSE” COMIC BOOK SERIES

    PUSCIFER RELEASE “IMPETUOUS” FROM FORTHCOMING ALBUM, NORMAL ISN’T (FEBRUARY 6, PUSCIFER ENTERTAINMENT/ALCHEMY RECORDINGS/BMG) PRE-ORDER: https://Puscifer.lnk.to/NormalIsnt  
    VISUALIZER PREVIEWS FORTHCOMING PUSCIFER COMIC BOOK SERIES: “TALES FROM THE PUSCIVERSE”
    “Don’t Lead, Move, or Follow. Let’s Just Dance.”
    “ImpetuoUs” visualizer
    Jan. 7, 2026 – Kicking off the new year, Puscifer release “ImpetuoUs,” a third and final preview of the band’s highly-anticipated album, Normal Isn’t, arriving Feb. 6 via Puscifer Entertainment/Alchemy Recordings/BMG.

    “I’m looking forward to hearing where this song takes people,” Maynard James Keenan says. “As the writers, we forget that in a way, we are carpenters and that we’ve been with this song since it was a pile of lumber. Our Perspective may differ from the final occupant of this space we’ve constructed. Shelter, Bridge or Gallows, Coffin? Curious to find out.”

    The accompanying visualizer offers a first look at the Puscifer comic book series, “Tales From The Pusciverse.” The debut issue spotlights the character Bellendia Black, originally introduced in the “Pendulum” video. Additional details about the series, launching in tandem with Normal Isn’t, will be announced soon.
    Puscifer has previously released two tracks from the 11-song album: “Self Evident,” a song that Stereogum called “gnarly” while noting Keenan and Carina Round “operatically growl” on the four-minute outing, and “Pendulum,” a nod to the post-punk underground of the 1980s that Consequence said sounds like the “lovechild of Bauhaus and Sisters of Mercy.”Written and recorded across Arizona, Los Angeles, and on the road during last year’s Sessanta tour, the album blends the dark electronics and sharp humor Puscifer is known for with a more spontaneous creative process. “From the outset, we had discussed an element of rawness and edge, which guitar brings,” shares Mat Mitchell, who co-produced the album. “We got rid of the guard rails and made the music more aggressive.”
    “Normal Isn’t reflects this time we are living in,” Keenan adds. “As storytellers and artists, our job is to observe, interpret, and report. We take in our environment and share what we see, and what we see around us does not appear normal. Not by a long shot.”

    Album guests include Greg Edwards (bass), Gunnar Olsen (drums), and Sarah Jones (drums) with guests Tony Levin (bass on “Normal Isn’t” and “Seven One”), Danny Carey (drums on “Seven One”) and Mr. Ian Ross (father of Atticus Ross, who narrates “Seven One”).   Normal Isn’t is available now for pre-order and pre-saves (https://Puscifer.lnk.to/NormalIsnt), including multiple limited-edition vinyl variants: standard black, indie retail orange swirl, a Zia Records tan smoke exclusive, and a Puscifer.com-only black ice and clear with black splatter. The album is also available on CD, cassette, and digitally.

    Puscifer is a band of three creative confidants, namely Mat Mitchell, Carina Round, and Maynard James Keenan, who fuse music, performance, and visual art into a singular experience. Over the years, Puscifer has carved an indelible mark on the cultural landscape, releasing a series of acclaimed albums, selling out famed venues, appearing on the lineups of Coachella, Bonnaroo, and other major festivals, and even curating their own touring festival, Sessanta. They’ve provided what was essentially the soundtrack to the first season of “Yellowstone,” and their albums regularly land on the top 30 of the Billboard Top 200. They’ve made memorable appearances on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and the “The Late Show,” bringing their signature blend of precision, wit, and theatricality to late night television.

    Puscifer has also welcomed a revolving door of collaborators, from musicians like Greg Edwards, Gunnar Olsen, and Sarah Jones to remixers including Trent Reznor, Atticus Ross, Phantogram, and Sir Mix-A-Lot, as well as actors Bob Odenkirk and Milla Jovovich. It’s also a universe for the (mis)adventures of original characters: Billy D, (his wife) Hildy Berger, Major Douche, and Special Agent Dick Merkin. More than a band, Puscifer is a creative ecosystem; a boundary-pushing collective where sound, story, and spectacle collide.

  • TOM MORELLO TEAMS UP WITH BEARTOOTH TO RELEASE NEW SINGLE “EVERYTHING BURNS” FEATURED IN FINAL FANTASY XIV

    TOM MORELLO TEAMS UP WITH BEARTOOTH TO RELEASE NEW SINGLE
    “EVERYTHING BURNS” FEATURED IN FINAL FANTASY XIV LISTEN | WATCH

    Legendary guitarist Tom Morello joins metalcore powerhouse Beartooth with new single “Everything Burns” (out now on Mom+Pop Music) produced by two-time GRAMMY-nominated songwriter, musician and producer Tyler Smyth (Falling in Reverse, I Prevail, Blessthefall, Royal & the Serpent). This fierce collaboration fuses Morello’s signature guitar riffs with soaring, aggressive vocals from singer Caleb Shomo noting: “creating ‘Everything Burns’ was the definition of lightning in a bottle. Pressure makes diamonds. When I got a call saying Tom Morello wants you to sing on a song for a huge project and it’s due in a few hours I had no idea what would happen, but I gave it all I had and it turned into something that’s truly once in a lifetime. I couldn’t be more honored to be a part of this with Tom and the entire Final Fantasy family that made this happen. Life goal achieved. “Yesterday, the song made its in-game debut for the latest update of Final Fantasy XIV, where players will get to experience the track in one of the most pivotal parts of the game – earlier today it premiered on SiriusXM Octane and is now available globally on all streaming platforms along with a music video directed by AxiA. 

    On his collaboration with Beartooth, Morello adds: 

    “Everything Burns is a high energy riff heavy banger that feels like it’s rising from the streets. Collaborating with Beartooth and super producer Tyler Smyth to forge this ferocious next single from my upcoming solo album was a real thrill.”
    Along with the release of the new single, Fender announced Tom Morello’s “Arm The Homeless” Guitar, an instrument faithfully recreating one of the most distinctive and influential guitars in rock history. This limited-edition launch serves as a deeply personal project for Morello, with Fender providing the craftsmanship, platform, and expertise to realize his vision. To recreate the instrument, Fender worked side-by-side with Morello to faithfully reproduce every nuance of the original, from its distinctive body shape and color scheme to its custom electronics and untrimmed strings on the headstock. A portion of proceeds will benefit Midnight Mission and Covenant House, two local Los Angeles organizations hand-picked by Morello for their dedication to providing shelter and dignity to people experiencing homelessness. The project embodies Morello’s lifelong activism, championing the power of creativity and connection to uplift communities.

    Last month, Morello recently wrapped up his sold-out headline tour, featuring special guests each night including artists such as Corey Glover & Vernon Reid (Living Colour), Darryl McDaniels (Run DMC), Tim Mcllrath (Rise Against) and more. Next year, he will head on tour kicking off in Lollapalooza Chile on March 13, wrapping up in Bilbao, Spain at BBK Music Legends Festival on June 27 – all tour dates below with more announcing soon.

    About Tom Morello Tom Morello is living proof of the transformative power of rock’n’roll. Known for his innovative guitar solos and thunderous riffs, Morello is a groundbreaking artist whether in his solo career or as an original member of the rock bands Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave – two acts responsible for multiple Grammy Awards and a combined 30 million albums sold worldwide. His trademark style, innovative techniques, and effects that resemble turntable scratching redefined electric guitar playing and were crucial components of Rage Against the Machine’s rap-metal sonic attack and Audioslave’s numerous radio hits, not only helping catapult Morello and both those bands to multi platinum success but leading to his recognition by Rolling Stone Magazine as #18 on the “100 Greatest Guitar Players of All-Time” and subsequent induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and the Heavy Metal Hall of Fame. Morello’s signature guitar could also be heard in supergroups Prophets of Rage, Street Sweeper Social Club as well as a six year stint with Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. Additionally, Harvard graduate Morello has for decades been a vocal political activist and solo artist who has championed countless human rights and workers rights causes.

    About Beartooth Caleb Shomo first turned the pain of his struggle with mental health and self-image into music in 2013. Beartooth began as a living document, a diary, a journal of repressed rage and depression. Alone in his basement studio, screaming and singing, playing all the instruments, and self-producing a batch of furious but melodic songs filled with reflection and confession, the Ohio native stared into the abyss, initially with no intention of returning to the heavy music world that burned him as a teen. A decade later, the different pieces of his body of work connect in title, sound, and spirit. As the frontman hits 30, Beartooth’s fifth album, The Surface, completes this era in 2023. Even more importantly, it kicks off a new chapter filled with surprising optimism and just as honest. Depression is a sick, disgusting, aggressive disease below the surface. Caleb stands ready to bask in the light. Like Nine Inch Nails, Beartooth remains a one-person band in the studio. On the heels of the introductory Sick EP (2013), Disgusting (2014) produced BEARTOOTH’s first Gold single, “In Between.” Aggressive (2016) and Disease (2018) expanded on the desperation and pain, each a step closer to a balance between the blood and tears of classic recordings and the shimmer of modernity. Rolling Stone heralded Beartooth as one of 10 Artists You Need to Know. The rabid response to Caleb’s music demonstrated how many people related to his struggle for self-acceptance. Below (2021) topped the Rock and Alternative charts and several Best Rock/Metal Albums of the Year lists. As of 2023, the Beartooth catalog boasts more than 1 billion streams across all platforms.

    Beartooth began as both bomb and balm, an outright refusal to suffer in silence, weaponizing radio- ready bombast, delivering raw emotion mixed with noise-rock chaos. Other bands play the “devastating riffs and catchy hooks” game, but this music is the difference between life and death, and now, a sort of life after death while still here. The band Forbes sees “inching towards a tipping point of becoming the latest arena headliner” is now one step closer.
