After recently signing to Century Media, As Everything Unfolds unleashed their newest single, “What You Wanted”. 

As Everything Unfolds

As Everything Unfolds has been making waves with their distinctive sound. They aspire to be unique and therefore ignore genre boundaries. This has worked out well for the band, amassing over 30 million streams and gaining three nominations for Heavy Music Awards, including Best Album of 2024.

What You Wanted

The band has released a brand new single in collaboration with Bury Tomorrow vocalist, Dani Winter-Bates. The song cycles between melodic verses and a catchy chorus, with heavier sections interwoven throughout.

The song was released alongside its music video, directed by Zak Pinchin. It showcases the vocalist lying upon an old TV, then takes the watcher through VHS-like scenes of the band performing and outdoor clips.

Vocalist Charlie Rolfe says, “Over the last two years, I have watched various people in my life struggle with addiction issues, mostly related to alcohol. It’s painful and difficult to watch your most beloved people in your life destroy themselves every single day, and not be able to help them. You find it frustrating not being able to help them, not being to do anything, and being angry at their lack of empathy for the pain they put you through every day.”

She continues, “I found a lot of relatable things in the 1980s film The Shining,which is famously seen as an allegory for alcoholism, with Jack’s family being concerned for his health, his well-being, seeing him in slow decline. His family are frustrated with the situation he put them in alongside being terrified of him when he is the worst version of himself. It made me realize that I was often frustrated and terrified of that person and felt like I was living in my own Overlook Hotel at times, trying to desperately save that person, but also sometimes the best thing to do is to just get out. I used this world as a creative vessel to tell my own story.”

“What You Wanted” is available for streaming and download here!

Live

The band has appeared at several iconic European festivals, including Download, Graspop, Rock for People, Resurrection, and Wacken Open Air. They have also toured extensively with bands including Electric Callboy, Enter Shikari, Skindred, Bury Tomorrow, Holding Absence, and more.

As Everything Unfolds will be hitting the road again, starting November 13 in Birmingham, UK. They will stop in cities such as London and Berlin before commencing in Cologne, DE on November 23. Full tour dates are found below. 

Upcoming Live Shows:

11/13 — Birmingham, UK —  Asylum

Pop-rock standout LØLØ is stripping things back with her latest single “me with no shirt on.” The track peels away her usual bite and bravado to reveal something more fragile and exposed. Produced by Andrew Goldstein (blink-182, Tate McRae), the song dives into the messy headspace that follows unreturned affection, where self-doubt hits hardest and validation feels just out of reach.

“I wrote ‘me with no shirt on’ about that gut-wrenching feeling when you realize someone doesn’t feel the same way about you anymore,” LØLØ shared. “It really hurts when someone who was once obsessed with you couldn’t care less anymore. But ladies, take it from me, a half-naked selfie cannot save your relationship.”

The song arrives on the heels of her recent releases “american zombie” and “the devil wears converse,” continuing to expand the world she built on her debut album falling for robots and wishing I was one. LØLØ’s blend of vulnerability, humor, and pop-punk attitude has helped her carve out her own lane in modern alt-pop, earning praise from outlets like Kerrang!, PAPER, and Rock Sound.

With more music on the way, LØLØ’s proving she’s not slowing down anytime soon. Stream “me with no shirt on” and watch the music video now.

SPELLLING, aka Chystia Cabral, has released a brand new version of “Destiny Arrives” from her acclaimed 2025 album.

Portrait of My Heart

The experimental pop visionary, SPELLLING, released her fifth album, Portrait of My Heart, earlier this year. The album, containing “some of the most catchy indie pop to come out of the Bay Area this century” (Treble), has been incredibly well-received by fans and critics alike. It has received praise from many publications, including NPR Music, The Needle Drop, Brooklyn Vegan, Stereogum, San Francisco Chronicle, KQED, and PAPER Magazine, who stated,  “This album…isn’t a study, but a portrait — an interpretation of a person at a time and place. It’s an exploration of a heart — one that is breaking, beating, breathing life into the entire body.”

The album is available here!

Among the hard-hitting avant-pop songs is “Destiny Arrives”, which has now been reimagined.

Destiny Arrives

The new version of the mystical album staple features Weyes Blood, a project of Natalie Mering. Mering commented, “The strange fantastical universe Tia’s built under the moniker SPELLLING has always captivated me, and when she asked me to sing on ‘Destiny Arrives’ I was there for the ride.”

SPELLLING also commented on the collaboration, stating, “Weyes Blood has been a dream artist to collaborate with for a long time now. I’m so honored to have her timeless voice on this reimagined version of ‘Destiny Arrives.’ She stepped into the song so gracefully and added such an epic glow to the feeling of the song through her own lyrical contribution and very intimate interpretation of the song.”

“Destiny Arrives” is available here!

Following the release of “Primal”, Soen has revealed their latest offering from their upcoming album, Reliance. With six studio albums out in the world defining their signature sound, their seventh is set to be released this January.

Mercenary

Today, Nov 4, Swedish prog metal powerhouses Soen have unleashed “Mercenary”. 

The vocals and instrumental deliver a powerful performance, cycling between loud and calm. With a strong melody, perfectly timed pauses, and meaningful lyrics, “Mercenary” gives a great insight into the world of the band’s upcoming album. 

“‘Mercenary’ is about the violence we inherit, which then sees hatred seeping into lives–and life–which in turn shapes generations,” comments vocalist and frontman Joel Ekelöf.  “It also addresses betrayal, about how that can see us ‘crowning vultures into kings,” furthers founding member and drummer Martin Lopez. “At its heart, ‘Mercenary’ speaks to the cost of belief,” Ekelöf adds before Lopez affirms that “musically, it carries the essence of Soen – heavy yet melodic and built on power and precision.”

The song comes with a lyric video that showcases a dystopian world in black, white, and purple. The video was created by Freakshot Film and can be viewed here.

Primal

“Mercenary”, the second song off the band’s upcoming album, follows “Primal”. The single explores the existential fight between the human spirit and the current world, coming paired with a black, white, and red lyric video. 

Lopez comments, “Primal’ is a song that came from a place of frustration with the world we’re living in. The corruption, the division and the suffocating grip that technology has on all of us. It’s heavy and straight to the point, built on riffs and raw energy, but it also opens up into a chorus that feels hopeful, like a reminder that light can still break through the dark.”

“For us, it’s about more than just aggression,” continues Ekelöf. “It’s about encouraging people to find that fire again, to reconnect with passion, and to take those steps out of the darkness together.”

Reliance

The band’s upcoming album, Reliance, is set to be released January 16, 2026, via Silver Lining Music. Reliance will mark the band’s seventh studio album, which follows the theme of honesty throughout. Featuring Soen’s iconic sound, the album allows raw power to coexist with emotional themes. They confront darkness through truthful lyrics and dynamic instrumentals, which match the emotional intensity.

Reliance was produced, recorded, and mixed by Alexander Backlund at Fascination Street Studios; mastered by Tony Lindgren. 

It will be available in many formats, including a CD, 12” vinyl album in black and color variants, digital, and special D2C products and bundles. Reliance is available for pre-order here!

“‘Tränenpalast’ is our tribute to the great tradition of Italian cinema,” says Kreator’s Mille Petrozza. The band has revealed their newest single from their upcoming studio album and is preparing for their EU/UK tour.

Tränenpalast

Kreator has unleashed their newest single, “Tränenpalast”, featuring Britta Görtz of Hiraes. The song pays homage to Dario Argento’s 1977 cult film Suspiria through lyrics and video. The lyrics allude to “the three mothers”, an ancient witch cover from the Suspiria universe. 

The cinematic music video features the band performing in a haunted ballet school, where images of said witches in various stages of transformation appear. The video was created by masters of the macabre, Grupa 13, and can be found here.

Kreator’s Mille Petrozza comments,”‘Tränenpalast’ è il nostro tributo alla grande tradizione del cinema italiano. Ci siamo ispirati al classico Suspiria di Dario Argento e al suo epico remake firmato da Luca Guadagnino. Musicalmente, ci inchiniamo ai grandi Goblin, in diretto dialogo con il maestro Claudio Simonetti. Speriamo che la canzone vi piaccia tanto quanto piace a noi.  Solo amore per i grandi! Salve alle orde!”

Translated: “‘Tränenpalast’ is our tribute to the great tradition of Italian cinema. We drew inspiration from Dario Argento’s classic Suspiria and Luca Guadagnino’s epic masterpiece remake. Musically, we bow to the great Goblin, in direct conversation with maestro Claudio Simonetti. We hope you enjoy the song as much as we do. Only love to the greats! Hail to the Hordes!”

Struck Dead

Trivium has unveiled their three-song EP Struck Dead. The new EP is available via their longtime label, Roadrunner Records, and can be found here.

The release comes with a music video for the EP’s title track, directed by Black Card Films. The video matches the song’s intensity, featuring the band performing in various lighting. The use of color in the lighting makes for an immersive visual experience, matching the energy of their live show.

The EP was produced by the band themselves and recorded with Mark Lewis at the band’s Hangar Studios in Orlando, Florida. Josh Wilbur took on the role of mixing the collection of songs. 

Trivium bassist, Paolo Gregoletto, spoke on the creation of the EP, stating, “In August 2023, we set out to design and build our own studio at The Hangar — a place to create freely, on our own terms.”

Through this process, the band decided to see what was next: “Born from months of revisiting and performing Ascendancy in full, this EP channels that familiar power and spirit while pushing into new territory,” he continues. “We feel that Struck Dead stands as the first step into a bold new era for us and we happy to finally share it with all of you.”

Ken Carson just dropped a Halloween treat. The Atlanta-born platinum artist released his new track “YES” today, a high-energy anthem produced by Clif Shyne that arrives in the middle of his Antagonist 2.0 tour with Playboi Carti. After teasing snippets across socials for weeks, the official version finally landed, following his explosive ComplexCon performance and his recent Hypebeast Magazine cover.

2025 has been a breakout year for Carson, who’s turned chaos into an art form. His latest album More Chaos debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, earning him his biggest release to date and solidifying his reign as one of rap’s loudest disruptors. The project followed A Great Chaos, which helped define the modern “rage rap” movement and pushed Carson’s sound into punk and electronic territory.

Since More Chaos dropped, the Opium signee has racked up four new RIAA Platinum certifications for “Fighting My,” “Overseas,” “SS,” and A Great Chaos. The album’s production lineup features regular collaborators Starboy, Lil 88, F1LTHY, Outtatown, Lucian, and Legion. On release night, Carson surprised fans with the bonus track “Off The Meter,” marking the first official collaboration between Ken, Playboi Carti, and Destroy Lonely.

The success of More Chaos carried Carson into a new league. The project topped Apple Music’s All-Genre chart, Spotify’s Global and U.S. charts, and HITS Top 50, pulling in more than 21 million streams on its first day. Critics across The New York Times, Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, Billboard, and Complex named it one of the year’s best releases, while Variety added Carson to its Young Hollywood Impact Report.

Carson’s live shows have grown just as massive. His Chaos World Tour in 2024 sold over 230,000 tickets across North America and Europe, including two sold-out nights at Shrine Expo Hall in Los Angeles and three back-to-back sellouts at Terminal 5 in New York City. Known for his high-voltage performances, he’s built a reputation for turning every set into a riot of energy, distortion, and viral moments.

Off stage, Carson has become a cultural figure in his own right. He’s earned shoutouts from icons like Jay-Z, Justin Bieber, LeBron James, and Anthony Kiedis of Red Hot Chili Peppers. He’s collaborated with brands like Ed Hardy, Y/Project, and Marc Jacobs’ Heaven line, while also debuting exclusive merch collabs with Jesse Jo Stark’s Deadly Doll and Affliction at ComplexCon. The latter of which will be available at 9pm PT here.

With “YES,” Carson continues his unrelenting streak, proving there’s no ceiling to the world of chaos he’s built. His next chapter is already unfolding on the Antagonist 2.0 arena tour, where he’s turning every stop into a statement on how far he’s come, and how far he’s still willing to go.

Stream “YES” now and catch Ken Carson on tour through December.

Sophie Powers is done holding back. The 21-year-old pop disruptor has dropped her haunting new single “spiderwebs,” a track that dives deep into the emotional wreckage of abuse and control. Following her recent release “muddy,” the song stretches her dark-pop aesthetic into grittier territory, pairing hypnotic beats with vulnerable storytelling that cuts straight to the core.

Since first emerging as a fearless voice in pop, Sophie Powers has built her world on raw honesty and creative rebellion. With over 80 million global streams and collaborations with artists like Grimes, Dillon Francis, and Baby Tate, she’s become a name impossible to ignore. Her crossover into fashion and K-pop has only expanded her influence, from partnerships with Harajuku streetwear icons ACDC RAG and Gloomy Bear to co-writing credits for global acts like IVE, ILLIT, and NMIXX.

Earlier this year, Sophie brought out ILLIT during her mainstage set at Seoul’s One Universe Festival for a performance of “jellyous,” earning her a new wave of international fans. Her freestyle street performance has also exploded on TikTok, pulling in over 50 million views and showcasing her quick, magnetic energy in real time.

Now, Sophie is back in the studio, crafting her third EP. If “spiderwebs” is any indication, she’s stepping into her most unfiltered and emotionally charged era yet.

Stream “spiderwebs” and watch the music video below.

The woman-powered hard rock band Conquer Divide has released a brand-new, emotionally charged single via Mascot Records.

The Ocean Between Us

Conquer Divide has revealed “The Ocean Between Us”. The song is carried by melodic and powerful vocals flowing over an intense rock instrumental. It explores their heavy, yet melancholy sound and emotionally vulnerable lyrics. The ending brings the loud, powerful song to a close with a calm solo vocal, accompanied by light ambience as Kiarely Taylor sings, “I had a dream we could survive the ocean’s divide.” The single follows “Bad Dreams”, featuring metalcore band Of Virtue, released earlier this year. 

“‘The Ocean Between Us’ is about being set on one life path, going through the motions until something or someone stops you in your tracks,” the band says. “It’s about seeing an alternate version of your life and wondering what if. What if you took the leap and started over somewhere far away, with someone new?”

The single comes with a lyric video, which can be found here!

“Ocean Between Us” is available for streaming and purchase here!

Slow Burn

Conquer Divide is currently working on their upcoming album, set to release in 2026.

Their most recent album, Slow Burn, has received over 52 million streams worldwide and proved to be a success. The album’s single, “Paralyzed”, earned a placement on Metal Hammer’s 2023 Tracks of the Year. Leading up to the release of the iconic album, the band returned to the studio in 2020 with Tyler Smyth and Joey Sturgis. The two proved to be perfect in bringing Slow Burn to life; Smyth, known for his work with Falling In Reverse and I Prevail, and four-time RIAA Certified Sturgis, known for his work with Asking Alexandria, The Devil Wears Prada, and Of Mice & Men.

Slow Burn is available for streaming and purchase here!

The band has also received praise from Rock Sound, Distorted Sound, Alternative Press, Revolver, GuitarWorld, SXM Octane, Loudwire, and more.

Conquer Divide

Having formed a decade ago, Conquer Divide has evolved their sound tremendously from melodic metalcore to hard rock.

Since forming, they have toured with acts such as 10 Years, The Warning, New Years Day, Ankor, Electric Callboy, and plenty more. They have also released collaborations with Electric Callboy, 10 Years, and Of Virtue.

The band, composed of vocalist Kiarely Taylor, drummer Sam Landa, and guitarists Kristen Sturgis and Izzy Johnson, has created plenty of hard-hitting and emotionally raw tracks. “The Ocean Between Us” continues the trend.

From an album release planned and appearances at ShipRocked 2026 and Sonic Temple 2026, next year is set to be their biggest yet.
