SLUMP6S DROPS NEW SINGLE & MUSIC VIDEO “ORIGIN”

After piling up tens of millions of streams and views independently, 16-year-old Rochester, NY hip-hop artist Slump6s unleashes a new single and music video entitled “Origin” via Field Trip Recordings/Republic Records.


On the track, a string sample and a claustrophobic beat drive the frenetic production as his hyperactive delivery bursts with energy. It illuminates his ability to flip like a switchblade between punchy verses and a chantable hook. With its psychedelic filters and rapid cuts, the accompanying visual reflects this kinetic motion as he turns up outside in Los Angeles.

It also arrives on the heels of his latest single “Moment,” which Elevator Magazine highlighted the rapper as “part of the new generation of soundcloud rappers who are taking the internet by storm, and Our Generation Music noted his “melodic delivery is able to adapt as the instrumental starts with a wavy synth and leads into heavier 808s”.

However, everything just sets the stage for more music to come from Slump6s. Be on the lookout.

DSC_7862.jpg


Angels And Airwaves has released their 6th full length studio album titled Lifeforms and the band is hitting the road for a world tour. AVA highly anticipated album is their most honest and relatable album to date. Tom Delonge, David Kennedy, Matt Rubano and Ilan Rubin are taking the Lifeforms tour to New York next week October 23rd at the Hammerstein Ballroom. Just minutes from Time Square  the band will be sharing new and old songs and who knows maybe Tom will fill you in on secret UFO knowledge (wink wink).… if you make it out to the show keep your eye out for a little piece of Boxcar Racer history but you didn’t hear it from me. If all of this is not enough to convince you to come out maybe seeing some Live Photos from the tour so far will be. Check out photos from the Detroit show bellow.

PLATINUM-SELLING G HERBO HITS THE ROAD WITH THE MONSTER ENERGY OUTBREAK TOUR
unnamed-21.png

The Monster Energy Outbreak Tour is pleased to announce chart-topping and platinum-certified rap star G Herbo as the headliner for their final tour of 2021. Produced by Live Nation Urban, it kicks off in Philadelphia, PA, on November 12, 2021.

Tickets are available here.

"I'm excited to partner with an iconic brand like the Monster Energy Outbreak Tour and reconnect with my fans in person again. This is gonna be my biggest and absolute best tour period," shared G Herbo.

"We had a great experience working with G Herbo for our Monster Energy Live On Location virtual series last year, and we're excited about the idea of translating virtual to the stage in front of sold-out crowds," adds Steve Glazer, Monster Energy Outbreak Tour Founder/Producer.

“Live Nation Urban is excited to bring G Herbo back to stages across the US! This tour has been long-awaited and Herb’s raw and authentic music is ready to come to life in front of live audiences,” said Mari Davies, Live Nation Vice President, Booking and Talent.

The Monster Energy Outbreak Tour is G Herbo's first time on the road since the release of 25, his highest-charting album, which peaked at #5 on the Billboard 200 chart upon its release this past July. 25, which features Polo G, 21 Savage, The Kid LAROI, Gunna, and more, continues to put G Herbo at the forefront of Chicago's distinct style of drill rap.

Complex states, "We're used to hearing Herb be vulnerable on tracks, his album PTSD attests to this, but 25 finds the Chicago Drill pioneer in some of his most honest moments."

Listen to 25 here.

G Herbo's recently released the visual for "Stand the Rain (Mad Max)." The Oz On The Track and Chase Davis-produced clip shows G Herbo gracing the fictitious cover of Forbezmagazine's "30 under 30 edition" while rapping over a hard-hitting beat boasting about "not reaching his goals but still sh*ttin' on his peers." The sentiment rings true as G Herbo is a force to be reckoned with as 25 has already garnered over 182 million streams.

Watch the visual here.

Tickets go on sale this Friday, October 15 at 10am local in all markets, with presales starting today at 10am local. Be sure to get your tickets for a city near you as G Herbo graces the stage of the Monster Energy Outbreak Tour.

OF MONSTERS AND MEN ANNOUNCE MY HEAD IS AN ANIMAL (10th ANNIVERSARY EDITION)
unnamed-49.jpg

Marking an important milestone, multiplatinum Icelandic collective Of Monsters and Men announce My Head Is An Animal (10th Anniversary Edition) to be released on October 29th.

To celebrate a decade since the arrival of their platinum-certified debut My Head Is An Animal, the group is releasing a version of the album as it was when it was released in Iceland in 2011. This version has a total of four tracks that were not on the 2012 US release, including two never-before-released songs: “Phantom” and “Sugar In A Bowl.” The anniversary album will also be accompanied by commemorative merchandise and a limited-edition vinyl as a special thank you for fans.

Pre-order/Pre-save My Head Is An Animal (10th Anniversary Edition) album and view exclusive merchandise—HERE.

Watch the trailer for new single “Phantom” HERE.

Regarding this moment, the band commented: "It’s been 10 years since the original edition of MHIAA was released in Iceland and because of that we wanted to do something special so we're releasing a 10th anniversary edition of the album as well as performing some fun live, intimate anniversary shows from Iceland from the venue where we played our first album release party ever.

The track list matches the one from that first edition of the album that came out in Iceland in 2011 plus two unreleased bonus tracks that sort of got left behind when making the record.

This album is how most of you got to know us and how we got to know you and for that we are forever grateful.

Thank you to everyone that listened to and supported us this past decade.

Here is to another 10 years!

Love, OMAM"

While “Phantom” and “Sugar In A Bowl” are newly recorded songs, they are not new to the band. “Phantom” was first performed by Of Monsters and Men in 2010 at the renowned Músíktilraunir music competition. It was one of the two songs performed when they took home first place in the competition helping to jumpstart their career. The album features another unreleased track entitled “Sugar In A Bowl”—also composed and conceptualized over decade ago but never recorded.

Continuing the celebration of their anniversary the band also announce their first and only live shows of 2021: Of Monsters and Men: The 10 Year Anniversary Celebration of My Head Is An Animal where they will be performing two intimate shows at Gamla Bíó (the venue where they held the album release party for the album in 2011) on November 9th and 10th. The band will play the album in its entirety as well as other OMAM favorites both older and newer. Pre-sale for Of Monsters and Men: The 10 Year Anniversary Celebration of My Head Is An Animal starts October 13th at 10am GMT and general on sale begins on October 14th at 10am GMT. Fans can head to http://ofmonstersandmen.com for more details.

Upon release in 2011, My Head Is An Animal scaled the Billboard Top 200, bowing at #6. It also boasted the quintuple-platinum “Little Talks,” which became “the first song by an Icelandic band to cross 1 billion streams on Spotify,” and the gold-selling “Dirty Paws.To date the album has been streamed nearly 5 billion times globally and was the starting point for the band’s long career.

Since the start of the pandemic, the band has been keeping busy in Iceland. They released a cover of Post Malone’s “Circles,” in April 2020 that the band performed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show (see performance here). Last Fall they released new original track “Visitor,” which generated over 14 million streams worldwide and performed on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. The performance was shot in Iceland in the landmark theater IÐNO in central Reykjavik. See the incredible performance here. The track was also remixed by indie darlings MUNA who gave new life to the track (listen here).
In 2019, the group welcomed listeners into the embrace of their critically acclaimed third full-length album, FEVER DREAM. Not only did the record tally 80 million-plus total streams to date, but it also attracted acclaim from Billboard, NPR, The Line of Best Fit, Independent, Paste, and more. Clash Magazine claimed, “The songs also have an emotional content to them that is hard to ignore.” Q Magazine praised it as “a dizzying rush of exuberance and emotion…their transformation into an arena-ready pop beast is complete.” Notably, the single “Alligator” made history by completing “their quickest climb to #1 on the Adult Alternative Songs Airplay Chart, as reported by Billboard. In addition to selling out dates coast-to-coast on the FEVER DREAM Tour, the group delivered rapturous television performances on Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! ,The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, and Ellen.

OF MONSTERS AND MEN went from the talk of Iceland to the top of the global conversation on their 2011 debut, My Head Is An Animal which landed the band a performance on Saturday Night Live. The group appeared on official soundtracks for franchises such as The Hunger Games, The Walking Dead, and Beat Bugs, to name a few. In addition to performing at festivals such as Coachella, Lollapalooza, Firefly, and beyond, they supported Florence + the Machine on a high-profile arena tour. In the midst of this rapid rise, 2015’s Beneath The Skin bowed in the Top 3 of the Billboard Top 200 and the band had a coveted cameo in an episode of HBO’s Game of Thrones in the same year.

1.) Dirty Paws

Bullet For My Valentine Release "Rainbow Veins" Video

unnamed-20.png

SEVENTH STUDIO ALBUM BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE OUT NOVEMBER 5

PRE-ORDER HERE

Bullet For My Valentine have released the official video for current single "Rainbow Veins."

Arguably their most stunning yet, this new music video completes a collection of visceral and instinctive clips honed by creative director, Fiona Garden. Garden and singer/guitarist Matt Tuck have worked closely and intensely across all accompanying imagery around Bullet For My Valentine's upcoming seventh studio album, marking a distinct visual era for the band.

Watch the official video for "Rainbow Veins" here.

"Rainbow Veins" is taken from their forthcoming self-titled album Bullet For My Valentine, which is due out November 5 via Spinefarm/Search & Destroy.

"'Rainbow Veins' is out now and we couldn't be happier for you guys to finally hear it," the band says." It is one of our favorite tracks from the upcoming album and we're sure it’ll be one of yours too. Turn it up!"

Tuck began writing the album in September 2019 before the coronavirus pandemic brought things screeching to a halt in early 2020. But in June 2020, Tuck and long-time producer, Carl Brown, who co-produced the band's 2015 album, Venom, and produced and mixed Gravity, picked up the pace again. Together, they hunkered down at Treehouse Studio in Chesterfield, where the remainder of the album was written.

Pre-orders are now live here, with an instant download of singles, "Knives," "Parasite," and "Shatter." Special bundle options are available, including a unique clipping from the backdrop used on the bands "Venom" world tour from 2015-2017, t-shirts, hoodies, gold and silver cassettes, and limited vinyl.
