After posting up nearly 200 million total streams on last year’s sophomore blockbuster Trauma and landing on the pages of Variety and beyond, two-time GRAMMY Award-nominated platinum rock juggernaut I Prevail reveal “Hurricane (Reimagined).” The Michigan outfit strips down its latest hit single “Hurricane” acoustically, highlighting the poignant lyrics, vulnerable performance, and impressive songwriting. It illuminates another side of the Michigan group and exerts a different kind of power from the original.
“‘Hurricane’ is one of the most important songs on Trauma,” the band shares. “It was one of the first tracks we wrote for the album and it became a pillar in building the central message and sound we wanted to create. From the day we wrote it, there was a vision for a stripped-down version of the song that would allow us to explore more delicate instrumentation, production, and vocals. This version definitely brings to life a different mood and atmosphere to experience the track.”
“Hurricane” has been storming up the radio charts in recent weeks and just landed at No.1 on the Billboard Rock Chart. It’s the first chart-topping single of the band’s career.
I Prevail received nominations for two GRAMMY Awards in 2020 — in the categories of “Best Rock Album” for Trauma and for “Best Metal Performance” for “Bow Down.” The band was recently featured in Varietyand by NPR.
The story of I Prevail hits even harder than the music. They took a mental health breakdown, turned it into a powerful body of work, and made an audience connection online and I.R.L. on par with that of a pop or hip-hop act. These numbers—200 million streams and 100 million views and a Top 15 debut on the Billboard Top 200—remain unprecedented for rock. Trauma shocked the system quietly and continues to do so.

It’s not goodbye forever, it’s just goodbye for now.
After the heartbreak that many bands and tours have faced this past week with the COVID-19 situation across the world, The Wonder Years featuring Spanish Love Songs were abruptly forced to postpone all remaining tour dates with the stop in St. Louis being their final one for now.
This was SLS’ first time in St. Louis and it truly felt like a make-shift going away party for many people. The Ready Room would be closing indefinitely while the Coronavirus prevention is going on and tours will be haulted through St. Louis, so everyone that showed up definitely had an air of “Enjoy the night because it’s the last we’ll have in a while.”
Brave Faces, Everyone, the latest album from SLS, revolves around trying to be an optimist in rough circumstances. In March 2020, this is a narrative that can definitely be thought about and applied. It’s not a good situation, but we need our brave faces and to choose optimism as a radical life choice.
The band’s set highlighted songs through their catalog including their latest release from February of this year. I am doing a proper review of the album next month in a “How Did I Miss This?!” catch up video, but Brave Faces, Everyone is my favorite album of 2020 so far. It’s the rare beginning to end play-through that I’ve played countless times and am still going back to. Several songs like “Losers pt. 2” were played in St. Louis this night.
At the end of the show with The Wonder Years closing out, SLS along with the other support acts joined the show to sing along on stage with the StL crowd as a bon voyage. In what could have been an awkward good bye, every band on the show made it a heart-warming and joyous celebration. It’s not what I was expecting, but I loved every second of it (fan footage from a tweet below).
Support your favorite bands online for the next few months. Buy a t-shirt or pay for an album. Do something. You’d be surprised how much that’s going to help your favorite artists over the next month.
The band will be posting updates through social media accounts about made up dates including their headline tour. You can find the band’s Facebook page here: Spanish Love Songs on Facebook
After hundreds of requests and patron voting, we take a look at The Reason why Hoobastank became such a success in the mid 2000’s.
Hoobastank (sometimes stylized as h∞bastank, and originally known as Hoobustank) is an American rock band formed in 1994 in Agoura Hills, California by lead vocalist Doug Robb, guitarist Dan Estrin, drummer Chris Hesse, and original bassist Markku Lappalainen. They were signed to Island Records from 2001 to 2012 and have released five albums and one extended play to date. Their sixth album, Push Pull, was released on May 25, 2018. They have sold 10 million albums worldwide. The band is best known for their singles “Crawling in the Dark“, “Running Away“, and “The Reason“.
The Reason is the second studio album by American rock band Hoobastank, released on December 9, 2003 by Island Records. Produced by Howard Benson, it was the band’s last album to feature bassist Markku Lappaleinen prior to his departure in 2005. Despite receiving mixed reviews from critics, The Reason peaked at number three on the US Billboard 200 and was eventually certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America; currently, it has sold over 2.3 million copies in the United States alone. #Hoobastank #TheReason #Manscaped #Rocked #RegrettingThePast #IlNeige
Announce Their Third Album THE BASTARDS Released on May 29th Via Sumerian Records Pre-Orders Available Now From PalayeRoyale.com
Video For Brand New Track LONELY Released Today Watch/Listen Here
Adrenalin-fueled, Rock n’ roll circus and recent JUNO nominees, PALAYE ROYALE, have today announced the long-awaited release date for their highly anticipated new album, THE BASTARDS. The band’s third studio album will be released on Sumerian Records on May 29th. Pre-orders are available now from palayeroyale.com The band have also released a brand new track from the upcoming album today, titled ‘Lonely‘.
The track features some of the most honest and heartbreaking lyrics ever written by frontman Remington Leith and the accompanying music video, which he also directed, is a perfect reflection of the difficult and deeply personal topics addressed by the song of childhood abandonment, mental health issues and drug use. Speaking on the track, Remington says:
“Lonely is about the mental and physical abuse I endured as a child. Growing up, I went through so much shit and at points felt so low I couldn’t see a way out. It has effected me deeply throughout my life but I want the world to know that no matter what you’re going through, if I can make it out on the other side, so can you.”
PALAYE ROYALE have been teasing their 3rd studio album, THE BASTARDS since last year. Surrounded by a utopian world created by the band, THE BASTARDS is set in a place that is a reflection of their own lives, but in a mythological sense. Speaking on this special world he and his brothers have created, Emerson Barrett adds:
“It takes place around the island of Obsidian and it’s set in 1888. In short, it’s a world that started off with intentions where the island encouraged free thinkers and artists to exist and, as everything does in life, eventually it becomes this political power and evil toxicity that comes with everything. To remain a true individual in the society, you must wear a gas mask.”
Musically, the album is an enormous step-up for the band. It is, in turn, dark, lush, angry, vulnerable, caustic and warm. From the grandiose Bond-theme-esque ‘Tonight Is The Night I Die’, to the darkly jarring ‘Anxiety’, from the quietly heartbreaking refrain of ‘Lonely’ and the massive fuzzed up, distorted guitars of ‘Nightmares (Coming Down)’, THE BASTARDS demonstrates just how far the band have expanded their writing and musical dexterity, rounding out their already accomplished arson with flourishes of electronics, metal beat-downs, drum n bass beats and haunting string arrangements. There are singles on the album, luminous highlights, but it’s also a piece of work that works beautifully when listened to as a whole. That, despite the fact that it was recorded in a variety of locations. Speaking on the recording of THE BASTARDS, Sebastian Danzig states:
“We rented an AirBnB in Joshua Tree, one in London, and we kept on going in little areas and writing new sections of the album. It’s crazy — we thought the album was done in March of last year, and we did the heavy stuff in Joshua Tree. We wrote ‘Little Bastards’ a week before the album was supposed to be mixed and mastered.”
In short, THE BASTARDS is an album that demands your attention.The world needs Palaye Royale right now and Palaye Royale have delivered in spades.

New Album Imploding The Mirage May 29, 2020 Listen to First Single “Caution”
THE KILLERS’ BIGGEST GLOBAL TOUR EVER! ON SALE NOW!!
THE KILLERS are thrilled to share the details of their forthcoming, highly-anticipated sixth studio album, Imploding The Mirage, which is set for release on May 29, 2020 on Island Records. The album – produced by the band in conjunction with Shawn Everett and Jonathan Rado of Foxygen – was recorded in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Park City, UT. It is the first Killers album to be written and recorded since leaving their hometown of Las Vegas, NV. Imploding The Mirage also features a brilliant array of collaborators, another first for the band who have typically kept guest spots on their albums to a minimum. The list of featured artists includes Lindsey Buckingham, kd lang, Weyes Blood, Adam Granduciel (War On Drugs), Blake Mills, and Lucius.
The album’s first single, “Caution”, is all of Imploding The Mirage’s excellence densely packed into three and a half minutes. Both refreshingly next level and reminiscent of the band’s much-loved albums Sam’s Town and Battle Born, it finds The Killers evoking the spirit of ambitious reinvention matched with the kind of anthemic chorus to which they’ve become synonymous. The track also features an iconic guitar solo courtesy of the legendary Lindsey Buckingham.
The Killers are also thrilled to announce additional dates around the globe — playing some of the biggest venues in the world — to their already sold-out UK and European tour this summer. When announced this past fall, the band’s ten UK stadium concerts sold out immediately, moving over 350,000 tickets within hours. The UK leg will include two sold out nights at the 55,000 capacity London Emirates Stadium as well as a 50,000 capacity show in Manchester at Emirates Old Trafford. These sold out stadium shows come on the back of the band’s triumphant 2019 Saturday night headline slot at the 150,000 capacity Glastonbury festival, where the band treated the rapturous crowd with surprise performances from The Smiths’ Johnny Marr and Pet Shop Boys. Special guest Johnny Marr joins the band again this summer as opener for the U.S and Canadian shows.
Since the release of their 2004 debut, Hot Fuss, The Killers have sold 28 million albums, headlined stadiums and festivals around the world and won dozens of accolades globally. The band continues their reign as America’s heartland heroes as they head into Imploding The Mirage. Following their 2017 Billboard #1 album, Wonderful Wonderful – a love letter of sorts, as Brandon Flowers crafted songs of encouragement to his wife during crippling bouts of depression – Imploding The Mirage is the light after the dark; the overcoming of sadness and moving into celebration. It’s a record about eternal love, perseverance through hard times, and the strength gained from friendships and familial bonds whilst weathering a storm.
Indeed, Imploding The Mirage leaves the grit and glitter of Vegas behind for something more expansive and triumphant. (Literally. Flowers moved his family from the parched flats of Vegas, NV to the lush mountains of Utah before beginning work on the record.) It’s an album that also pushed the band out of their musical comfort zone, exploring new terrain and referencing the albums in their collection that filled them with a sense of romance and camaraderie in their youth. Influences include Kate Bush and Peter Gabriel, as well as Killers’ touchstones like Bruce Springsteen and New Order. Throughout it all, Flowers remains a wholly singular songwriter. A prolific artist with a steadfast understanding in how much solace a song can provide; he’s a pensive craftsman in the studio and an exuberant rock star on the stage. These 2020 shows will give fans a chance to experience The Killers as they deliver the most relentlessly enjoyable rock show of the year.
Run, don’t walk: All tickets for the U.S. and Canadian shows are on sale on Friday, March 20th at 10 am local time. Each ticket purchased online for the U.S. shows comes with a CD copy of Imploding The Mirage as well.

He Is Legend Drop Video For “Burn All Your Rock Records”
On Tour Now With Labelmates While She Sleeps
North Carolina’s He Is Legend have dropped the video for the track “Burn All Your Rock Records.” The song is taken from their 2019 Spinefarm Records release White Bat. Once again, frontman Schuylar Croom teamed up with Myles Erfurth to co-direct the video. Watch it here.
Croom explains, “While working with Myles on these last two videos, we became fast friends. He came out to shoot a few shows on the road just for fun — and what better song to showcase that than ‘Burn All Your Rock Records!’ I think it captures the energy of the live show fantastically.”
He is Legend are currently on tour with label mates While She Sleeps in North America. The tour stops in Denver tonight, and wraps up March 17 in Phoenix. All remaining dates are below.
HE IS LEGEND ON TOUR: WITH WHILE SHE SLEEPS: 3/10: Denver, CO @ Marquis Theater 3/11: Salt Lake City, UT @ In The Venue 3/13: Sacramento, CA @ Holy Diver 3/14: Los Angeles, CA @ The Roxy Theatre 3/15: Las Vegas, NV @ Backstage Bar & Billiards 3/17: Phoenix, AZ @ Rebel Lounge
In the video for his latest single “Ordinary Man,” the title track of his new Epic Records album which features Elton John, OZZY OSBOURNE takes a retrospective look at his life and career. Watch the clip here.
In the video, directed by Stephen Lee Carr and produced by Sharon Osbourne, Jack Osbourne, Peter Glowski, R. Greg Johnston, and Stephen Lee Carr, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and Grammy®-winning singer and songwriter sits in front of a screen watching clips and looking at photos from his early days with Black Sabbath to headlining venues around the world as a solo artist. Throughout, OSBOURNE faces good times and bad, going from melancholy as he views troubling moments (the loss of Randy Rhoads) to happy times alongside his wife and family.
In its first week of release, the critically acclaimed ORDINARY MAN—OSBOURNE‘s first new solo album in ten years–was the #1 rock album in the world, topping multiple charts in its triumphant first week of release. Worldwide, ORDINARY MAN entered the charts in the Top Ten in seven countries making it the highest charting album of OZZY‘s career.
ORDINARY MAN marks OSBOURNE‘s first new solo music in almost 10 years. Recorded in Los Angeles, the album features producer Andrew Watt on guitars, Duff McKagan (Guns N’ Roses) on bass and Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers) on drums. Beyond the core band, ORDINARY MAN, features a who’s-who of OZZY friends and collaborators including Elton John, Slash, Post Malone, and Tom Morello.
Rage Against the Machine (often abbreviated as RATM and shortened to simply Rage) is an American rock band from Los Angeles, California. Formed in 1991, the group consists of vocalist Zack de la Rocha, bassist and backing vocalist Tim Commerford, guitarist Tom Morello, and drummer Brad Wilk. Their songs express revolutionary political views. As of 2010, they had sold over 16 million records worldwide. The band was nominated for induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in their first year of eligibility in 2017 and 2018, although both bids failed.
The Battle of Los Angeles is the third studio album by American rock band Rage Against the Machine, released on November 2, 1999 by Epic Records. The album was nominated at the 43rd Annual Grammy Awards for Best Rock Album, was recognized by both Time and Rolling Stone magazines as the best album of 1999. The Battle of Los Angeles would be the last full-length studio album of original material by Rage Against the Machine before their breakup in 2000, although they did release a covers album that same year. #RageAgainstTheMachine #RATM #RATM2020 #TheBattleOfLosAngeles #TBOLA #GuerrillaRadio #Rocked
