San Jose metalcore/hardcore band MUGSHOT has released the 2nd single, ‘Next To Your Idols,’ from their highly anticipated sophomore album, All The Devils Are Here, that’s out June 20th via Pure Noise Records.

Commenting on the track, the band says:
‘“Next To Your Idols’ is a critique on celebrity culture and the adornment of those who use their platform to mistreat or take advantage of others. It’s an indictment on Hollywood and the manipulation that surrounds it and similar circles.“

Produced by Randy Leboeuf (Kublai Kahn, The Acacia Strain, Gideon, Bad Omens), MUGSHOT’s massive 12 track record, All The Devils Are Here, marks a new beginning for the incendiary band, following their 2023 EP, Cold Will, and nearly a decade after their riveting full-length Dull Boy.
With a lineup consisting of Ringo Waterman (vocals), Michael Demko (guitar), Connor Haines (drums) and Ciro Abraham (bass), MUGSHOT have found a brutal groove, melding influences of metal and hardcore in a violent storm of unrelenting chaos. Featuring the previously released singles ‘Vale of Tears,’ ‘Die In Fear‘ and ‘Afore A Waking Nightmare,’ their long anticipated album ushers in a thrilling new wave of rage for metalcore fans.
Commenting on the record, the band states:
“This album is the most collaborative we have ever been as a band, every person had a major hand in creating whether that be musically, lyrically or both. It’s also the first album we haven’t self produced and having Randy Leboeuf on board was so invaluable, he really felt like a 5th member. Lyrically this is the most personal and pissed off we have ever been and we think everyone will be able to connect with many tracks on this record.“
