HEAVYS Weekly Breakdown for 2/22/26 talking about Lauren Hart joining Arch Enemy, At The Gates final album with Tomas Lindberg, and more.
“After a week of intense speculation, Arch Enemy have revealed their new singer: Lauren Hart, formerly of Once Human. She’s taking the place of Alissa White-Gluz, who left the band in November. The Swedish melodic death metal veterans welcome their new singer into the fold with an explosive new track called “To the Last Breath.” It’s classic Arch Enemy fare, full of chugging riffs, fiery solos, anthemic choruses and blistering screams. Hart will get her reps in when Arch Enemy embark on a European club tour this summer.” (Loudwire)

Five new heavy songs great for blowing out speakers. What are you listening to?
“Swedish extreme metal powerhouse Arch Enemy are charging into a new chapter as they unveil the first new musical piece after their latest album cycle with Blood Dynasty. The new single “To The Last Breath” is a testament to the band’s legacy, and a step towards a new exciting era of Arch Enemy: “To The Last Breath” comes not only with powerful music but is also the first Arch Enemy song to feature the latest addition to the lineup — new singer Lauren Hart (ex-Once Human). Michael Amott, guitarist and founder of Arch Enemy, comments, “Connecting with Lauren has marked an important step in my journey. Working with her was an exceptional experience — her remarkable voice, coupled with her dedication and professionalism, brings a rare level of excellence. I look forward to continuing the collaboration.” (Arch Enemy Press Release)
A New Era Commences: Arch Enemy Reveal New Singer Drop New Single “To The Last Breath” with Official Music Video

Arch Enemy “To The Last Breath”
While fans and media alike have been rapidly speculating about who might step into the role behind the microphone, the band remained tight-lipped as the anticipation built to a feverous pitch across the metal community. Now, Arch Enemy are back in full force, presenting their ferocious new anthem “To The Last Breath.”
Michael Amott adds, “Make no mistake — this song is a reckoning. Musically, it’s unapologetically aligned with my original vision for the band — and I believe longtime fans will recognize that immediately. Lyrically, it’s about seeing through deception and dismantling the illusion of control. It captures that moment when you realize you’ve been fed poison — and you choose to fight back. Once that clarity hits, there’s no retreat. It’s do or die.”
With unwavering confidence, Amott asserts, “Just when you think it’s over, a new beginning rises. Now it’s time to rage with us — to the very last fucking breath!”
To celebrate this new chapter and present their unparalleled and raw band dynamic, Arch Enemy announce an intimate European club show run dubbed “Back To The Root Of All Evil” in Summer 2026.

BREAKING BENJAMIN 2026 TOUR with Chevelle, Starset, Kami Kehoe
“With the announcement of Shinedown’s new single, album and tour, frontman Brent Smith did an interview with Rolling Stone and was asked about their decision to drop off Kid Rock’s “Rock The Country” festival tour. Originally Shinedown was set to play the Anderson, SC date, but they dropped off because they didn’t want to “participate in something we believe will create further division.” Shortly after, that entire date of the tour was canceled. Speaking to Rolling Stone, Smith further addressed the decision saying: “We saw infighting that we had never seen before, and for us, it was our job to diffuse it. There were certain people that were not happy about [pulling back.] I will say that there was an overwhelming amount of people that agreed with the decision.… You’re entitled to your opinion 1,000 percent in this country, and that’s one of the beautiful things about it.” (Rolling Stone)
The song hones in on PTW’s patented and signature quiet/loud dynamics, and it’s a perfectly executed mix of moody and metallic. In the video, we follow singer Jeffrey Moreira in an almost voyeuristic way. The tension in both the song and the accompanying visual builds steadily. Tune in to see where they start and where they end, and pay attention to some easter eggs along the way.
“‘Everything Hurts’ is about the patience and effort it takes to keep relationships alive,” says Moreira. “I care deeply about the people in my life, but even the people you love can be frustrating sometimes. And it’s important to remember that we can be just as frustrating to them. We all have our moments — and I have my moments too. The ones that stick around are the ones you have a unique connection with. You can’t put up with everyone’s shit, so the people you keep close are the ones whose shit you actually want to deal with.”

Thrash Metal Force EXODUS Unleash Title Track “Goliath” From Upcoming Album
12th Studio Album, Goliath, Out March 20, 2026, via Napalm Records | Pre-Order NOW!
EXODUS have unleashed the colossal title track from their new album, Goliath, out March 20, 2026 via Napalm Records! Revealed today with an accompanying music video, “Goliath” simmers the tempo down with winding, malevolent leads, towering drums and ominous string work from violinist Katie Jacoby, coupled with intricate guitars by the legendary Gary Holt.
Even over 40 years after their debut, EXODUS are steadfast in their refusal to settle for the safety of mediocrity and continue to forge their trademark just as resolutely as they did in their fruition. The band’s highly anticipated 12th studio album is their most multifaceted offering so far, featuring several epic collaborations and marking the return of Rob Dukes as lead vocalist. Secure your copy of Goliath now and check out the music video for the title track below!
EXODUS on “Goliath”: “‘Goliath’ may quite possibly be the heaviest thing we have ever done, and certainly the slowest song in our catalog, as close to doom metal as Exodus we get! Just pure evil, as sinister as it gets, featuring our friend Katie Jacoby, who laid down 18 tracks of strings in the middle harmony section, making the song go from just pure horror to a thing of beauty.”
Goliath wastes no time proving as massive as its name, with a sinister introduction opening “3111”. Ode to owning one’s own volatility “Hostis Humani Generis” features a palpable lyrical delivery from Rob Dukes that cuts like crystal amid frenetic riffs, before rolling into “The Changing Me”. The track’s introductory notes cascade into hair-raising rhythms, forming one of the band’s most anthemic offerings – blending menace and melody with the cleans of guest Peter Tägtgren (Hypocrisy, Pain) together with Tom Hunting and at the end both Peter and Robb scream off the song. Harmonic dual axe acrobatics from resident guitar legends Gary Holt and Lee Altus. “Promise You This” incites mosh pit treachery with explosive energy, cyclonic riffs and turbocharged soloing from Holt and Altus. Tracks like “Beyond The Event Horizon” and “2 Minutes Hate” provide EXODUS’ trademark deadly dose of thrash theatricality – the latter boasting one of the album’s most grimacing, grooving pit primers – while undeniably 90s-tinged metallic charm attacks alongside drummer Tom Hunting and bassist Jack Gibson’s unmistakable rhythmic rage on tracks like “Violence Works”. The nearly eight-minute epic “Summon Of The God Unknown” turns the danger dial to max capacity, setting the stage with a wicked introductory passage before traversing a variegated passage of trudging riffs and heavy metal melody. Power packed closer “The Dirtiest Of The Dozen” wraps the album on a manic high, showcasing EXODUS pulling out all the stops on all instruments. Flurried dueling solos, an isolated bass excursion, rigorous drum dexterity and a blend of both gritty vocal passages and cutting chants combine to serve as yet another prime example of the band’s ever-evolving musical mastery.
Produced by EXODUS, mixed and mastered by Mark Lewis (Whitechapel, Nile, Undeath), Goliath beams with the explosive authenticity that has set EXODUS eons apart from their peers since the release of their debut, 1985’s groundbreaking thrash blueprint Bonded By Blood. 40 years later, EXODUS are steadfast in their refusal to settle for the safety of mediocrity, fearing nothing and no one and continuing to forge their trademark just as resolutely as they did in their fruition.
EXODUS on the new album Goliath: “Are we excited for this record? That’s an understatement. We put everything we had into this record (and it’s 80 percent complete follow up, but we’ll save that conversation for another day!) and it’s one of our proudest accomplishments. Wildly collaborative, the most band centric album to date with four songs written by Lee, lyrics by Gary, Rob, Lee and Tom, and just killer all the way around. The time to let the monster loose is coming! Bow Down!”

Interview with Chuck Billy of Testament talking about touring in 2026 with new music from Para Bellum, fighting cancer, wild pit stories, and who he wants to play with.
Testament “Infanticide AI”
“Iconic Bay Area thrash band TESTAMENT‘s triumphant return continues in 2026 with the announcement of their “Thrash of the Titans” world tour landing in the US this coming spring! The trek unites the band with fellow thrash legends OVERKILL and DESTRUCTION for one of the fiercest tours of the new year. Commenting on the tour TESTAMENT frontman Chuck Billy says: “2026 looks like it is going to start with an explosion with the’Thrash of the Titans Tour.’ Joining us will be our Metal Brothers Overkill and Destruction. Our friendship has almost reached 4 decades. This is gonna be a Thrash Metal show you don’t wanna miss!” (Press Release)
HEAVYS Weekly Breakdown talking about Arch Enemy reuniting with Angela Gossow, Chuck Billy of Testament wanting Metallica, new album releases, and more.
“The Swedish metal veterans posted an Instagram video on Friday (Feb. 13) of a cloaked figure waving a flaming rod. The video features a single word: “2026.” But the real point of intrigue is the other tagged accounts in the post. The band tagged three of its four current members: guitarists Michael Amott and Joey Concepcion and drummer Daniel Erlandsson. (Bassist Sharlee D’Angelo, who has an Instagram account but does not seem to use it, was not tagged.) But Arch Enemy also tagged Gossow, which seems like a fairly definitive hint as to who their “new” vocalist will be. The profile pictures of four accounts — Arch Enemy, Amott, Erlandsson and Gossow — are all completely black, adding another layer of uniformity.” (Loudwire)
HEAVYS Metal Picks | 2/15/26
Five new songs to raise the volume on a blackheart weekend of love. What are you listening to?
“Ohio metalcore favorites MISS MAY I are thrilled to share the first taste of new music for 2026. Today, they drop the video for new single “Die on the Vine,” which is full of galloping guitars, plate-shifting breakdowns, and memorable melodies. “‘Die on the Vine’ captures a mid-life reckoning — coming to terms with how deeply childhood experiences and unresolved trauma shape who we become,” the band explains. “The song reflects the moment where denial stops working and self-awareness sets in. If those patterns are something you have to live with, the choice becomes whether to decay under their weight or grow stronger through them. ‘Die on the Vine’ leans into that tension, framing survival as adaptation: sharpening your thorns over time instead of letting the damage define you.” (Press Release)
Alt-rock star on the rise, Kami Kehoe, today ushers in a darker, razor-sharp chapter with her new single, “HEARTLESS“, via Atlantic Records. Where past releases traced the full arc of heartbreak and healing, “HEARTLESS” sees Kami flip the script into a love song told from the edge of a potential fallout. Listen to “HEARTLESS” HERE.
Writing from the perspective of someone who has been burned enough times to go numb, Kami zeroes in on the person who finally makes detachment impossible. Leaning into the reality of choosing to fully love one person meaning that she may have nothing left if they go, Kami reframes the word “heartless” as a consequence of her devotion, rather than indifference.
Coming off the back of her latest single, “FADE OUT,”, a cover of “SEX ON FIRE“, and a nationwide tour supporting Daughtry, Seether, and POD (which saw her regularly invited to join them on stage), Kami continues to cement her place as one of the genre’s most magnetic rising voices. Named as one of Pandora’s Artists to Watch in 2026 (The Pandora Ten) and continuing to rack up spins on Sirius XM’s Octane, Kami steps into the new year with a ballad that’s softer in tempo yet even higher in emotional stakes.
As she opens 2026 with the vulnerable, all-in love story of “HEARTLESS“, Kami Kehoe wears her heart on her sleeve:
“HEARTLESS is about having one heart and putting it on the line, but wrestling with the idea of finding your person and knowing that if they leave, they take everything you had with them. Seeing people connect with my music everyday has made me a lot less scared of being this honest, because that kind of truth is exactly what makes music worth making for me.”
With signature gritty guitars, atmospheric production, and Kami‘s evocative vocals, her latest single, “FADE OUT” closed out 2025 as one of her most emotionally charged releases to date. The track capped off her “KANDY” EP era that documented the full arc of heartbreak and healing, garnering millions of streams, 100 million views in short form content, and viral popularity worldwide. Her hit single, “DOPAMINE“, earned over 30 million streams and hit #11 on Sirius XM Octane’s “Big Uns” Countdown, spotlighting her growth in the modern rock landscape.
Carving out her own space in the alt-rock world, Kami Kehoe has impressively amassed over 105 million streams and more than 2 million social media followers by blending a sultry, velvety vocal with a hard-charged rock energy. Since breaking out with the viral hit “SLEEP WHEN I’M DEAD”, she has continued to evolve her sound—infusing shoegaze, metal, and hip-hop influences into her music while remaining unapologetically authentic.
Due for Release May 1st via Spinefarm Pre-Order HERE
March UK Tour with Employed To Serve
UK metal band, CAGE FIGHT – Rachel Aspe (vocals), James Monteith (guitar), Nick Plews (drums), and Will Horsman (bass) – will release their second studio album, ‘Exuvia,’on May 1st via Spinefarm.
The announcement is paired with the release of a new single, “Un Bon Souvenir.” The rack is accompanied by a new video, available below.
Vocalist, Rachel Aspe, explains, “Don’t bite the hand that feeds. This song is a reference to a previous experience in a band controlled by a toxic, manipulative person. It’s a reminder that bringing people down won’t elevate you. A challenging experience, but as he once said, it’s still a good memory, ça reste un bon souvenir.”
About the video, Aspe divulges,
“The video depicts the unraveling of the protagonist’s false world, built on manipulation and control. Though he initially appears strong, his convictions are fragile, revealed by his reliance on dark spiritual guidance for reassurance. Once seeming to be the rock of this world, he is exposed as a snake. This is the collapse of a false king.”
Recorded by Sam Bloor at Lower Lane Studios and mixed by Jim Pinder (Sleep Token, Malevolence), ‘Exuvia’ retains the raw, old school hardcore heart of CAGE FIGHT – vibrating with meaty grooves, pummelling rhythms, plus a wave of furious anger that feels like a punch to the gut. At the same time, it also explores more multi-layered terrains, atmospheres, and melodies, making CAGE FIGHT sound bigger, tighter, and more epic than ever before.
Throughout the 11 pieces of music, the bandproves they aren’t afraid to experiment… and have a bit of fun. A case in point is “Pick Your Fighter,” which features Julien Truchan from Benighted on guest vocals, and was inspired by a French pop song – “Et c’est parti…” by Nâdiya – though you’d never guess it from the song’s crushing heaviness.
The rest of the lyrics on ‘Exuvia’ are written by Rachel – the first time she has expressed herself in this way, and the results are deeply personal, taking in anxiety, assault, and having to deal with grief. The expansive final track, “Élégie,” is about losing her grandfather, and the regret that can come from things left unsaid.
On “Pig,” meanwhile, she calls out the creepy men who send women unsolicited messages online, while the title track was inspired by her grandmother, who is currently battling cancer, and helped Rachel write the song’s lyrics.
The album’s cover art, shot by photographer Manuel Acquualeni, depicts a radiation mask, establishing a connection both to Rachel’s experience with her grandmother and to the album’s title – ‘Exuvia’ can be defined as a cast-off skin or outer shell. It also represents healing, something Rachel feels she has achieved by opening up in the lyrics.
‘Exuvia’ Track List: 1. Confined 2. Oxygen 3. Pig 4. Pick Your Fighter 5. Un Bon Souvenir 6. Deathstalker 7. Le Déni 8. Exuvia 9. The Hammer Crush 10. IHYG (I Hate Your Guts) 11. Élégie
Footage of CAGE FIGHT on the main stage at Bloodstock2025 is currently receiving a storm of appreciation across socials; check out Rachel performing “PIG” HERE (2.1 million views on Instagram to date).
Since their inception, the band has become known for its visceral, high-energy live performances. Already, they’ve toured with acts such as Sepultura and Cro-mags, supported the likes of Napalm Death and Employed To Serve, and played numerous festivals, including Summer Breeze and Bloodstock.
Next, they head out on a UK tour with Employed To Serve.
