Chris Adler (Lamb of God) Joins Forces with TONIC BREED For Explosive New Single “Anew”

Tonic Breed, the metal project led by Norwegian musician Patrik K. Svendsen, is gearing up to release “Anew” on June 19th, 2025, a crushing new single featuring none other than legendary drummer Chris Adler (Lamb of God, Megadeth).

“I was quite curious when I got an email — and some riffs — from Patrik,” says Adler. “Clearly he’s done some cool shit and I was flattered to be on his radar… I researched it for a minute and agreed.”

Patrik originally sent over a rough demo of the song, a storm of riffs strung together with placeholder drums and a suggested structure. “Chris was actually on board right away,” Patrik explains. “We worked together on a new structure for the song, and Chris took the lead on shaping it into something far more unique and effective than my original draft.”

“His riffs are fucking sick,” Adler continues. “We did have to take a minute to both feel good about what this would be — meaning I beat up his song like a fucking Rocky movie — but I knew it had the parts and strength.”

The final version of “Anew” is a precision-crafted, high-energy track that fuses Patrik’s Norwegian riff work with Adler’s unmistakable rhythmic drive. “To me, this is the most Lamb of God-style drumming I’ve heard from Chris since he was in Lamb of God,” Patrik says. “I’m sure some metal guitarists would kill to hear Chris Adler’s drumming behind their riffs — I’ve been lucky enough to experience that firsthand.”

By the end of the collaboration, Adler described the finished product as “sounding like an action movie that’s fun to watch,” a nod to the song’s explosive dynamics and cinematic flow.

“It’s been a privilege to work with Patrik,” Adler says. “Humbling. You’ll know what I mean when you hear it.”

The track was mixed and mastered by acclaimed producer Machine, who also handled Lamb of God’s Ashes of the Wake and Sacrament. “The sound is brilliant,” says Patrik. “Machine absolutely nailed it.”

“Anew” will drop June 19th, 2025 as a stand-alone single and is also set to appear on the next full-length Tonic Breed album. The new release continues the project’s series of high-profile collaborations, which already include Dirk Verbeuren (Megadeth), Michael Gilbert (Flotsam and Jetsam), and Björn Strid (Soilwork).

Until “Anew” is released, check out Tonic Breed‘s latest collaboration with Flotsam and Jetsam guitarist Michael Gilbert for a guest solo on the new single “The Die Is Cast”.

Straight to the point. No fluff, no filler, “The Die Is Cast” is pure, hard-hitting thrash from start to finish, with a touch of melody woven in. The song is about a powerful war machine that lies broken and abandoned, surrounded by the wreckage of others like it. Its silence feels heavy, as if it’s aware of the destruction it once brought and the emptiness that followed.

“The Die Is Cast” was performed, written, and produced by Patrik K. Svendsen with mixing by Adrian Bjerketvedt in Sarpsborg, Norway, and mastered by Steve Kitch.

DEEP PURPLE/RAINBOW LEGEND JOE LYNN TURNER JOINS GUITAR VIRTUOSO MARCUS NAND FOR COVER OF BLUES IMAGE CLASSIC

Joe Lynn Turner needs no introduction. Long before he launched his solo career in 1985, his years fronting Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow (Difficult To Cure, Straight Between The Eyes, Bent Out of Shape) established him among the most dynamic vocalists on the metal scene, an accolade that was only amplified by stints with Deep Purple (Slaves and Masters) and Yngwie Malmsteen (Odyssey).
Clearly, Turner knows a great guitarist when he hears one, and Marcus Nand is no exception. Born in Spain and a student of flamenco guitar along with blues and rock, Nand has incorporated his diverse influences on such projects as the Los Angeles-based metal band Freak Of Nature, which featured White Lion singer Mike Tramp, and the world music-influenced rock band Ziroq with famed David Bowie bassist Carmine Rojas!
His first solo album, 2024’s The Traveler, was described by Forgotten-Scroll.net as “a PERFECT album” for anyone enjoying “sweet, harmonious, exceptional rock music.” Foo Fighters keyboardist Rami Jaffee raves, “Marcus knows how to write a song that feels truly rock and at the same time, truly worldly”; Alice In Chains’  Mike Inez continues, “He is a great example of a dedicated musician carrying the torch of his genre well into the future.”
And still “Ride Captain Ride,” the mighty fruit of this devastating partnership, leads both players into a whole new arena. According to the late songwriter Mike Pinera, the song was written “in about 15 minutes [and] we cut it right that day.”  It lifted his band Blues Image to international fame and, with close to 25 million Spotify plays to its credit, it remains one of the greatest rock standards of all time.
And one of the greatest Yacht Rock classics as well, which is what makes Turner and Nand’s treatment of the song so fascinating, as it preludes one of Cleopatra Records’ most highly-anticipated albums of the year, Yacht Metal – Yacht Rock Goes Heavier & Louder.
Nand has always loved the number.  “I’ve been a big fan of Joe Lynn Turner for years, so getting the chance to play on this track was a real thrill. It was also a lot of fun to revisit ‘Ride Captain Ride’ – such a classic! I wanted to stay true to the spirit of the original while giving it a heavier edge without losing what made it special in the first place.” 
Turner continues, “It was 1970 and ‘Ride Captain Ride’ was the big song…it went to #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart but was forever engraved in our lives.  I played it in my cover band a thousand times.
“It was a real joy to do a new version for Cleopatra…a fun tune with a positive message…hope you enjoy it as much as I still do!”
Because, if you do, you’re going to love Yacht Metal, too. Featuring contributions from Thor, Vinnie Moore, BulletBoys, Cherie Currie, Uriah Heep veteran Mick Box, Megadeth’s Chris Poland, Ross The Boss, Britt Lightning and another Rainbow alumnus Graham Bonnet, Yacht Metal is guaranteed to uproot everything you have ever thought you knew about both the genre and the songs that sail on it.  A line-up that also includes “Takin’ It To The Streets,” “Just The Two Of Us” and “You Can Do Magic.”
Well, Turner and Nand have already done some magic here, but just to whet the appetite further, here’s Mike Pinera again, speaking about the super-weird coincidence that has also established ”Ride Captain Ride” in the annals of rock’s most Fortean favorites.
He wrote the song on a Model 73 Rhodes piano, and the song’s opening rhyme riffed on that number… “73 men sailed out from the San Francisco Bay….”
“Now, here is the weird thing that happened.  It got released, it was in the Top Ten, #1 in a lot of regional markets, and my manager gets a call from the Pentagon, wanting to know how I, as the writer of those words, knew about the secret spy ship USS Pueblo?  My manager goes ‘what are you talking about?  I don’t think Mike knows anything about that stuff.  Ask him about the latest Gibson guitar and he’ll know, but he doesn’t know anything about secret spy ships.’ Which I didn’t.  
“But it turned out that I had written a song that coincided with an incident that had not yet happened; it took place after the song was released; and here’s what made it so freaky. There were seventy-three men on board who sailed out from the San Francisco Bay on this secret spy mission that nobody was supposed to know about, and they got in trouble out there on the ocean, they were captured and taken prisoner.  Seventy-three men sailed off into history.  As far as I was concerned, those lyrics were free form flow of consciousness stuff, but then you get to the third verse…
“At one of my concerts years later, I met the radio guy from the USS Pueblo who told me something I didn’t know about that third verse, that while they were actually being captured, it was during a massive storm and they couldn’t get the word out that they needed help because the bad weather was blocking the radio transmission.”
 
But no one heard them callin’, no one came at all
‘Cause they were too busy watchin’ those old raindrops fall
As THE storm was blowin’ out on the peaceful sea
Seventy-three men sailed off to history

Laguna announce debut album “The Ghost Of Katrina” out July 11th

Melodic hard rockers Laguna are excited to announce the release of their debut album, titled “The Ghost Of Katrina” and scheduled for July 11th, 2025, via Frontiers Music Srl.
The band share also the first single and accompanying video “Ghost Behind The Mask”, available now.

 

Pre-Order “The Ghost Of Katrina” HERE

Vocalist Andrés Espada described the new single by saying: “Ghost Behind The Mask” is a song with a dark aura. Exploring that insidious part of our minds that sows doubt and fuels insecurity, whispering criticism and messages of inadequacy. The song captures the internal struggle against those thoughts that tell us we’re not good enough, that we’re not worthy of love or success. It’s a reminder that often, the toughest battle we face is the one waged within our own minds”.

Hailing from the northern part of Mexico, from the arid desert of Torreón, Coahuila, Laguna is a five-piece hard rock band ready to take the world by storm with their debut album, “The Ghost Of Katrina”.

Drawing from the European and Scandinavian melodic hard rock scene, Laguna’s sound is an electrifying blend of powerful production, anthemic choruses, and in-your-face guitar riffs, with influences from the likes of One Desire, H.E.A.T., and other renowned acts from the scene.

The album, produced by Jimmy Westerlund (known for his work with One Desire and more recently Giant), perfectly captures Laguna’s high-energy and dynamic style, bringing to life a heavy yet melodic sound that’s both thrilling and emotionally charged. The songs feature strong hooks, vibrant instrumentation, and an intensity that reflects the band’s unrelenting passion for hard rock.

Formed in 2018 by a group of hard rock and heavy metal enthusiasts, Laguna’s sound is rooted in hard rock but with a distinctive modern twist. Their music is crafted to make listeners scream at the top of their lungs and throw their fists into the air – a perfect soundtrack for anyone who craves a high-octane, fist-pumping experience.

Laguna’s meteoric rise is a testament to their tireless dedication to their craft. Over the years, they have built a solid reputation in the North and Latin American rock circuits, performing at major festivals like Hell and Heaven Fest (one of Latin America’s biggest rock festivals) and the infamous KnotFest. The band has had the privilege of opening for iconic acts such as W.A.S.P., Timo Tolkki, and The Warning, further solidifying their place in the international rock scene.

Laguna’s music is a reflection of the barren desert from which they hail – a place where resilience and tenacity are born out of hardship. As guitarist José Mesta explains, “Long before it was a desert, it was a lagoon, but dried out thousands of years ago, leaving nothing but snakes and rats, yet deep down beneath the surface, water flows through the caverns of this great desert”. This metaphor speaks to the essence of Laguna – a band born from the depths of hardship, yet ready to rise with the power and energy that only hard rock can bring.

Laguna is set to make waves across the global rock scene. Their blend of melodic hooks, heavy riffs, and explosive energy will leave listeners craving more. This is only the beginning for Laguna, and they are poised to continue proving that Mexicans can indeed rock!

Metalcore band Adept makes long-awaited return with new music

Swedish metalcore pioneers Adept are back – and louder than ever! After almost nine years of silence, the band makes their long-awaited return today with their new single “Heaven”. Released by Napalm Records, “Heaven” is a raw and cathartic dive into guilt, loss and the constant persecution of personal demons. Powered by fast-paced riffs, dark melodies and a crushing breakdown, the song offers listeners exactly what Adept fans have been waiting for for years.

The single Heaven is released today as a music video only. The cinematic video features strong themes and a modern aesthetic that showcase emotional depth and provide a real visual treat. The song will arrive on streaming services at midnight.

“Heaven is a dark and emotional song about carrying old scars into the present and facing them. The composition is built around heavy riffs, a massive chorus and a raw emotional state. The lyrics are about being stuck in the unresolved issues of life, but also about the strength to overcome them and move on,” says the band’s vocalist Robert Ljung.

Formed in the early 2000s, Adept helped shape the sound of the European metalcore scene in its early years, and the band quickly rose to fame. Adept headed out on international tours and shared stages with the genre’s biggest names, such as A Day To Remember, Underoath and Bring Me The Horizon. The band made an impressive return to the live scene at last year’s Core Fest in Stuttgart, Germany, which created huge anticipation among fans. Now, at the dawn of a new era, Adept is ready to take over the metalcore scene once again.

French symphonic metallers Fairyland share new video “Karma” from upcoming album “The Story Remains” out June 13th

French symphonic power metal band Fairyland are pleased to share their new single and official video “Karma”, taken from their new studio album “The Story Remains”, scheduled for June 13th, 2025, via Frontiers Music Srl.

Pre-Order “The Story Remains” HERE

Bassist Willdric Lievin described the new single: “Karma is a song about the type of people who like using others. It’s a song about a selfish, egoistic, self-centered individual who only wants to please himself, without any consideration for other people. His hallmark: empty words, broken promises, words that are not followed by actions. He doesn’t know that by living like this, he hurts people around him. He doesn’t know that “what goes around comes around”. Musically it’s one of the most beautiful gems that Phil Giordana ever made. The majestic, epic, rich orchestrations make this song unique”.

Talking about the new record, Lievin stated: “After the passing of the Fairyland’s founder and mastermind Phil Giordana, we faced the challenge to finish the fifth album. Phil left plenty of material, but it required a lot of further work. It wasn’t easy but in the face of adversity we excelled and managed to complete the album. This, along with a new lineup, starts a new chapter in the history of Fairyland. It continues the symphonic, power metal quality that Fairyland is known for, but we decided to add some new elements to this musical landscape”.

“The Story Remains is richer and more versatile than previous albums, and we are exploring new musical and lyrical territory for the band. We are happy and proud of this new album, and we hope that listening to it will give you a lot of delight. Welcome back to Fairyland”, he continued.

French Symphonic Masters Fairyland are back with the long-awaited album “The Story Remains”. The band is a well-known name in the symphonic metal scene, appreciated and with a specific trademark made of majestic orchestration able to bring the listeners in their fantasy world.

Fairyland was formed in 1998 as Fantasia by Philippe Giordana and Willdric Lievin. Both musicians shared the same passion for epic and symphonic heavy metal. Fantasia recruited guitarist Anthony Parker and entered Wizard Studio in February 2002. During the recording, they found Elisa C. Martin, already known for her work with the power metal band Dark Moor.

At this time, the band’s name was changed to Fairyland. They signed a contract with NTS (now Replica Records). “Of Wars In Osyrhia” was released in April 2003. Shortly after, the band toured with Sonata Arctica and performed at the Swedish Rock Festival.

The second album “The Fall Of An Empire”, was recorded with: P. Giordana, A. Parker,  Max Leclerqc , Pierre-Emmanuel “Piwee” Desfray and Thomas “Tom” Cesario, and was released in 2006. A European tour with Kamelot and Leaves’ Eyes followed.

After the tour, the band split up. While working on the new material, Philippe decided to use the services of guest musicians for his next album. “Score To A New Beginning” was released in 2009, also marking the return of Willdric Lievin.

The fourth album “Osyrhianta” was released in 2020 (line-up: Philippe Giordana, Willdric Lievin, Francesco Cavalieri, JB Pol, and Sylvain Cohen).

Philippe Giordana passed away on October 21, 2022. In March 2023 Archie Caine was announced as the band’s new lead singer. In 2024 the line up was completed with Gideon Ricardo, Brieuc De Groof and J.B Pol.

“The Story Remains” perfectly incarnates the band’s trademark sound, and songs like “A New Dawn” or “Karma” are a perfect example of the amazing album that will make every symphonic metal freak’s heart beat with excitement!

“The Story Remains” Tracklist:

1.    Downfall
2.    To Stars And Beyond
3.    Karma
4.    A New Dawn
5.    We Shall Hunt The Sun
6.    Hopeless Still
7.    Samsara
8.    Unity
9.    Council Of The Gods
10.    The Chosen Ones
11.    Unbreakable
12.    Postscript
13.    Suffering Ages (Feat. Elisa C. Martin)

Marsh Tea returns with a renewed lineup – including members from Children Of Bodom and Red Eleven

A couple of years ago, Marsh Tea from Jyväskylä appeared on the Finnish heavy music scene, and his ability to conjure progressive music that penetrates the central nervous system immediately attracted attention in industry circles and music media. The lineup for the debut album consisted of hard-core professionals, Teemu Liekkala (Rioghan, Red Eleven), Valtteri Revonkorve (Rioghan, Leverage) and Nils Ursini (Trio Niskalaukaus), around whose compositions the band was built.

Marsh Tea’s singles, such as Mirrors, Chairs and Convert My Dreams, raised high expectations for the band’s upcoming debut album, but the radio silence that began after the single Stenched Pride left the promising rise unfinished. The walls had come up, and Marsh Tea was ready to be buried. Now, however, the band has found new wind in its sails, and the band’s primus motor Nils Ursin tells us what has happened since the release of the last single:

“After Disturbances In Movements was finished, my hunger grew to such proportions that our time together with Teemu and Valtteri was simply not enough. I had a strong desire to get the band in live shape and I was pushing the guys, way too much. At some point, our conversation led to the conclusion that in the face of other projects and personal life situations, I had to accept that I would continue alone, if at all. Naturally, I was really disappointed and wondered if this was it.”

“My wife saw that disappointment and strongly encouraged me to continue. Heta Hyttinen and a few other people joined that choir. I thought for a long time, ‘Will I be able to put together a new line-up? I don’t know, but we’ll see.’ We are still friends with Valtteri and Teemu. I’m working on other musical projects with both of them, and Teemu will definitely be Marsh Tea’s external ears when planning and making the next stage.”

The next stage is the release of the finished album, which has been maturing in the drawer. Disturbances In Movements, created with the old line-up, will be released on June 6th. You can pre-record the album here. The album was recorded and mixed, except for the drums, by multi-instrumentalist and studio wizard Teemu Liekkala. The drums were recorded under the direction of Tuomas Kokko at Electric Fox studio.

“The new Marsh Tea is a start, one of them, but definitely the last. I’ve learned to calm down, but I try to keep the reins in my hands without squeezing too much. We’ve slowly started to hoe the soil, with no rush remaining as the guiding principle.”

“New material is constantly being created. With the new Marsh Tea music, we’ve practically started from scratch, because the band is completely new. We’ll take over old material when the time comes. There’s a really tough group, professionals with a capital P and some damn good guys,” Nils Ursin enthuses.

The new line-up consist of – Tony Kaikkonen (Red Eleven) as singer, Mikki Rousi (Dead Season, ex-humavoid) on guitar, Jaska Raatikainen (Children Of Bodom, Mercury Circle) on drums, and of course Nils Ursin himself commands the low frequencies. He says that the band plans to tour in the future, but first it’s time to create new music.

Award-winning Taiwanese extreme metal band CHTHONIC release MEGAPORTAL 2425 live EP

Extreme metal band CHTHONIC, which has toured large stages in the Far East, Europe and the United States, ended its long silence in March by releasing the single Endless Aeons, accompanied by a very opinionated video.

Today, the band releases the MEGAPORTAL 2425 live EP, which also features the song Endless Aeons. The EP contains a total of five songs recorded from this and last year’s gigs at the Megaport Festival. These gigs have a recurring theme of breaking the boundary between reality and illusion and creating virtual time and space on stage. In 2024, technology was used that allowed virtual characters to be presented in real time on a large screen. In 2025, the characters appeared physically on stage and interacted with the characters on the screen.

“The concert screen acts as a ‘time and space tunnel’, or in time travel terms, a gateway. Virtual time and space connect to the real world through these gateways. We see the virtual character through the screen, and the character sees us in the real world. When we performed the song Endless Aeons, the character traveled through the gateway and appeared in reality,” says Freddy Lim.

In addition to Endless Aeons, the theme of time and space is also evident in other songs on this live EP. The opening track MEGAPORTAL INTRO layers different versions of the song Takao, creating a chaotic and exciting atmosphere. Quell the Souls in Sing Ling Temple is about the battle between this world and the afterlife. During the acoustic song Defenders of Bú-Tik Palace, Finn, who has appeared in several CHTHONIC music videos over the past decade, was seen on stage. He performed the classic scene where the characters shout the lyrics of the song. Finally, tens of thousands of fans sang the chorus of Takao together, bringing the concert to a perfect conclusion.

CHTHONIC says they will focus on making a new album next, and have no plans to tour in the short term. This live EP is a delicious snack the band serves up to their international fan base, who are eagerly awaiting the band’s next releases and the shows that follow.

MEGAPORTAL 2425 tracklist:

1. MEGAPORTAL INTRO
2. Quell the Souls in Sing Ling Temple
3. Endless Aeons
4. Defenders of the Bu-Tik Palace (acoustic)
5. TAKAO

They say rock can change the world, and Freddy Lim made that a reality during his two terms in parliament, pushing for reforms. He promoted legislation that made Taiwan the first country in Asia to recognize marriage equality, and he pushed for better protection of indigenous rights. He also supported budgets that provided humanitarian aid to Ukraine. He pushed for transitional justice, demanding that the government open secret documents from the authoritarian era so that truth and justice could be realized in society.

In 2023, these declassified archives unexpectedly revealed the tragic and previously unknown history of Freddy Lim’s family. Combining history and mythology, it seemed no coincidence that Chthonic’s music had previously told the sad but courageous stories of Freddy Lim’s grandparents. Freddy was deeply shocked to learn of the news. In a whirlwind of emotions, he decided to end his eight-year parliamentary career and announced that he would not run for office again. He paused to consider the direction of his life and where his music could still take him.

Osiris Rex Video Interview

Osiris Rex is a Finland-based thrash metal band that features former members of Tornado and new talents. Although the name has changed, the core remains the same: high-energy, riff-driven thrash metal with a modern twist. The band will release their debut EP “Arrival Of The New Dawn”.
We had the opportunity to chat with Joey Severance and John Creweholm about the band, the upcoming EP and more.
