West Coast heavy metal veterans Metal Church return with a revitalized lineup and a hard-hitting new single that underscores the sound that has driven their four-decade legacy. The new formation features founding member and guitarist Kurdt Vanderhoof, alongside longtime guitarist Rick Van Zandt, joined by bass icon David Ellefson, powerhouse drummer Ken Mary, and dynamic new vocalist Brian Allen.
Following the band’s recent tour and return from Australia, Metal Church found themselves at a crossroads. An unexpected spark reignited Kurdt’s creative drive, prompting him to reach out to the musicians who would ultimately shape the group’s next chapter. Their chemistry in the studio gave rise to the blistering new track “F.A.F.O.” – a song that immediately energized the band and inspired them to continue writing and recording. The new single was produced by Kurdt Vanderhoof and mixed/mastered by Zeuss at Planet Z.
Those sessions have now evolved into a brand-new Metal Church album, set for release in 2026 via Rat Pak Records. Additional details will be announced soon.
“After 45 years, the fact that we have new music coming in 2025 feels like a miracle. There was a time when I honestly didn’t think Metal Church would continue, but we’re back and this lineup is firing on all cylinders. I can’t tell you how excited I am to have a new single on the way; that alone makes this moment incredibly special. ‘F.A.F.O.’ is an aggressive thrasher, and I think the fans are really going to dig it, we certainly do. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be Metal Church,” explains Kurdt Vanderhoof.
Metal Church plan to tour extensively in 2026 and some festival dates have already been announced with more to come. All information on touring plans and links to tickets can be found at: https://www.metalchurchofficial.com

With renewed energy, a legacy spanning over four decades, and a rapidly expanding worldwide fan base, Metal Church remains a driving force in modern heavy metal. Still pushing forward, still evolving and still unmistakably Metal Church.
Earlier this year, acclaimed Japanese metal vocalist and songwriter Saeko took a temporary step back from music to undergo major surgery. Now on a steady path to recovery, she is gradually returning to creative work and preparing to reintroduce her music to fans around the world.
While her long-anticipated mini-album, originally scheduled for release in 2025, has been postponed to early 2026, Saeko has released the 2025 Remastered Edition of her debut album Above Heaven Below Heaven, worldwide, on all digital platforms. The album was originally produced by Lars Ratz and Co-produced by Michael Ehré.
Due to the original multitrack recordings being unavailable, the remaster was carefully produced using the original CD source. Thanks to the expertise of V. Santura at Woodshed Studio (Germany), the new edition preserves the emotional core and sonic identity of the original while enhancing its overall balance and clarity.
Rather than a reconstruction or remix, this reissue offers listeners the chance to rediscover the work that launched Saeko’s international journey, a journey that saw her tour with Doro Pesch in 2004 and become the first Asian female artist to perform at Wacken Open Air in 2005.
Often hailed as a milestone for Japanese women in the global metal scene, Saeko’s debut album represents a unique cultural bridge between East and West, between deeply personal songwriting and the grandeur of European melodic power metal.
“It’s been over twenty years since I first recorded these songs,” Saeko shares. “Back then, touring with Doro and standing on the Wacken stage as a Japanese woman felt almost impossible, yet it happened. Now, after all these years, I wanted listeners to reconnect with that starting point before hearing how far these songs have evolved.”
Now, two decades later, it stands again as a bridge between the past and the future, leading to the upcoming mini-album that will feature three newly re-recorded tracks from this original work.

Nameless Grave Records is proud to announce the CD re-issue of Metal Caído Del Cielo, the seminal 1985 EP from Mexican heavy metal legends Luzbel. This crucial piece of Mexican metal history will be re-released on Friday, December 12th.
More than just a record, Metal Caído Del Cielo is a cultural cornerstone that established the blueprint for heavy metal in Mexico. Founded by guitarist Raúl Fernández Greñas, who honed his craft during a period in England where he was part of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) band Red.
Greñas returned to Mexico in 1982 and founded Luzbel, instantly setting a new standard for heavy metal in the country. The 1985 EP, originally released on the Comrock/WEA label, solidified their status as pioneers, delivering a raw, electrifying sound that resonated with a generation eager for homegrown metal anthems.
This 4-track EP became an essential document in the history of Latin American metal. The re-issue serves as both a historical document and a vibrant tribute to the original lineup, featuring the dynamic vocal performance of the late, legendary frontman Arturo Huizar (R.I.P. 2020).
Nameless Grave Records is honored to bring this foundational heavy metal work back into circulation on CD, allowing both long-time fans to own a definitive physical version and a new generation of global metal enthusiasts to discover the power and influence of Luzbel.
Luzbel’s Metal Caído Del Cielo CD re-issue will be available for purchase and pre-order on December 12th via the Nameless Grave Records store.
Heavy metal titans DEATH DEALER are gearing up for a new chapter in their steel-forged legacy with the announcement of their upcoming full-length album Reign Of Steel, set for release on January 23, 2026 via Massacre Records. Packed with towering vocals, precision riffing, and a renewed sense of power, the album captures the band at their most focused and explosive.
Forged over five years of intense writing, recording, and relentless refinement, Reign Of Steel marks the band’s most ambitious, powerful and razor-sharp chapter to date. Built on the unshakable trio of Sean Peck, Ross “The Boss” Friedman, and Stu Marshall, and elevated by the crushing rhythm section of Mike LePond and Steve Bolognese. The album delivers ten tracks of uncompromising heavy metal fury, precision engineered for maximum impact.
To mark the beginning of this new era, DEATH DEALER unleash their brand-new single and video “Blast The Highway, a full-throttle anthem that merges the band’s signature intensity with an adrenaline-charged, cinematic sense of scale. Blazing guitars, unstoppable hooks, and a defiant spirit make the track a standout moment on Reign Of Steel.
The band comments: “Reign Of Steel represents the pinnacle of Death Dealer. The album is deep, intense and the result of thousands of hours making sure every song is the very best it can be.”
Ross The Bossadds: “Reign Of Steel is a crushing piece of metal delivered by a killer band.”
Sean Peckelaborates: “We wrote this album while locked down in a dystopian reality. It gave us the focus to create what may be our finest achievement yet.”
Stu Marshallconcludes: “We spent countless hours crafting this album. It may even contain the longest continuous high scream ever recorded…”
From a production standpoint, Reign Of Steel comes to life under the co-production of Stuart Marshall and Sean Peck, whose combined vision shaped the album’s aggressive precision and melodic grandeur. The sonic assault is further sharpened by Chris Themelco, who handled mixing and mastering at Monolith Studios, giving the record its massive, high-impact sound.
Visually, the album is defined by the striking artwork of Dusan Markovic, with additional design contributions from Aley Yarborough, completing an aesthetic as powerful as the music itself.
Track listing: 1. Assemble 2. Devil’s Triangle 3. Riding On The Wings 4. Bloodbath 5. Raging Wild And Free 6. Blast The Highway 7. Compelled 8. Dragon Of Algorath 9. Sleeping Prophet 10. Reign Of The Night

Mid-west Heavy Metal torchbearers SACRED LEATHER are back with the 3rd single, “Fallen Angel”, from their eagerly awaited, new album, Keep The Fire Burning, that’s due out December 12th via King Volume Records / Wise Blood Records. Forged in fire, the hellion five-piece have returned with a ferocious new song and video that delves into the mind of the prince of darkness.
Commenting on the track, bassist Magnus LeGrand says:
“When we wrote ‘Fallen Angel,’ it immediately felt like a callback to an era when metal songs had both hooks and teeth, something big, melodic, yet still dangerous. That track set the stage for what Keep the Fire Burning would become. Dee’s lyrics step inside Lucifer’s head, turning his fall from grace into something deeply human; the loneliness, the pride, and the weight of one’s own choices.
Visually, I wanted the video to conjure the haunting, biblical imagery found in the lyrics themselves, smoke, fire, and mystery, all wrapped in that classic ’80s metal grandeur. Think ‘Holy Diver’ meets ‘Dream Warriors,’ but filtered through our own world, with its own identity.”
SACRED LEATHER set the underground ablaze with their debut album, Ultimate Force. Seven years later the beast is back with a unrelenting, classic metal masterpiece that recalls a time when tight leather and heavy riffs ruled the world. The band recently released their explosive singles “Spitfire AtNight” and “PhantomHighways,” setting the tone for their headbanging followup.
1. Resurrection 2. Spitfire At Night 3. Phantom Highway (Hell Is Comin’ Down) 4. Wake Me Up 5. Fallen Angel 6. Flatline 7. Tear Out My Heart 8. Malevolent Eyes 9. Keep The Fire Burning 10. Mistress Of The Sun
Sacred Leather: Dee Wrathchild – Vocals Lynn St. Michaels – Lead Guitar Magnus Legrand – Bass Don Diamond – Drums Cvon Owens – Rhythmn Guitar
AboutSACRED LEATHER:
Forged in the fires of classic heavy metal and baptized in the spirit of rock ‘n’ roll rebellion, Sacred Leather stands as a defiant reminder that true metal never dies. Hailing from the American Midwest, the band delivers an unrelenting assault of twin-guitar fury, thunderous rhythms, and commanding vocals that channel the essence of leather, chains, and midnight highways.
Following their 2017 full-length debut Ultimate Force, which established them as torchbearers of traditional heavy metal’s resurgence, Sacred Leather return with their long-awaited sophomore album Keep the Fire Burning, due December 2025 through King Volume Records and Wise Blood Records. The album is both a declaration and a promise—rekindling the spirit that started it all while pushing their sound into sharper, more melodic, and more anthemic territory.
With Keep the Fire Burning, the band expands on their reputation for electrifying live performances and unflinching authenticity. Drawing from the steel-plated legacy of Judas Priest, Accept, and early W.A.S.P., Sacred Leather blend classic metal tradition with cinematic flair, evoking the neon glow of midnight highways and the danger of the unknown.
Time To Kill Records is proud to announce the signing of Portuguese power duo SOUL OF ANUBIS for the release of their upcoming third full-length album, set for 2026.
Formed in 2010 in Northern Portugal, SOUL OF ANUBIS have carved out a distinct place within the European underground thanks to their explosive fusion of thrash, sludge, doom and post-metal. Their sound channels the raw urgency of Mantar, the primal energy of early Mastodon, and the relentless drive of High On Fire and Black Cobra, yet remains unmistakably their own, a visceral blend of aggression and dynamic shifts that refuses to be confined to a single genre.
On stage, the duo are known for their fierce and magnetic performances, delivering an unfiltered surge of heaviness that connects with audiences on a deeply physical level. Over the years, they have performed extensively across Portugal and beyond, building a loyal following through their intensity and authenticity.
The upcoming album promises to push their sonic boundaries even further, expanding upon their trademark blend of massive riffs, dark groove, and emotional gravity, while highlighting a newfound sense of urgency and compositional versatility.
More details on the release will be revealed soon.
DANGEROUS TOYSDemolition will be releasing on December 12th, 2025, via Cleopatra Records. It’s been 30 years since a new studio album from DANGEROUS TOYS!
Amidst so much activity, and with the band’s long-awaited fifth album still in a state of gestation, fans can look forward to the arrival of Demolition, which features 10 tracks, all previously unreleased and recorded during the hiatus between the band’s second and third albums, 1991’s Hellacious Acres and 1994’s Pissed, as they continued refining their debut album’s unique concoction of Southern rock and driving metal.
Hand selected by DANGEROUS TOYS, “these old songs… obviously didn’t make the cut when choosing songs for official release,” the band remarks in the liner notes. All will be completely new to all the ears that hear them.

About Erik Rutan – Producer | Guitarist | Visionary:
Erik Rutan is one of extreme metal’s most respected and multi-dimensional forces, renowned not only for his blistering guitar work and songwriting in legendary bands Hate Eternal, Morbid Angel, and Cannibal Corpse, but also as a prolific producer and founder of Mana Recording Studios, where he’s helped shape the sound of death metal for decades.
Rutan began his career in the late ‘80s with Ripping Corpse, appearing on their influential Dreaming With The Dead (1991), then playing as a touring guitarist with Morbid Angel for Covenant (1993). Rutan then joined permanently to record the classic albums Domination (1995), Entangled In Chaos (1996), and Gateways To Annihilation (2000). In 1997, he formed Hate Eternal, taking on guitar, vocals, and full creative control.
In 2002, Rutan left Morbid Angel to focus on Hate Eternal and Mana Recording Studios. The band’s discography: Conquering The Throne, King Of All Kings, I, Monarch, The Perilous Fight, Fury & Flames, Phoenix Amongst The Ashes, Infernus, and Upon Desolate Sands – has cemented Rutan’s reputation as a technical innovator and one of death metal’s most uncompromising architects.
Equally revered behind the console, Rutan opened his recording studio in 1999 and founded Mana Recording Studios in St. Petersburg, Florida. The studio has since become a premiere destination for extreme music, hosting sessions for a who’s who of death metal as well as other styles of music.
His production, engineering, and mixing credits include a staggering list of landmark albums: Cannibal Corpse (Kill, Evisceration Plague, Torture, Red Before Black, Violence Unimagined, Chaos Horrific), Goatwhore (A Haunting Curse, Carving Out The Eyes Of God, Blood For The Master, Constricting Rage Of The Merciless), Krisiun (Conquerors Of Armageddon, Forged In Fury), Soilent Green (Confrontation, Inevitable Collapse In The Presence Of Conviction), Madball (Empire, Rebellion), Into The Moat (The Design, The Campaign), Tombs (Savage Gold, The Grand Annihilation). Agnostic Front, The Mountain Goats, Vital Remains, Belphegor, Through The Eyes Of The Dead, Rivers Of Nihil, Ether Coven, Aeon, Ephel Duath, Nile, Black Fast, Lizzy Borden, as well as the entire Hate Eternal catalog among many others.
In 2019, after years of collaboration, Rutan joined Cannibal Corpse as touring guitarist and then in 2021 became a full-time guitarist, making his recording debut as a member with Violence Unimagined and also Chaos Horrific. He contributed rhythm and lead guitar as well as songwriting on three tracks for each album, while also producing, engineering, and mixing the albums, earning widespread acclaim. “Erik’s influence and musical knowledge have elevated everything around us,” bassist Alex Webster said. “He brings a work ethic and vision that’s unmatched.”
Despite his commitments to Cannibal Corpse, Rutan remains devoted to Hate Eternal and Mana Recording Studios. “Hate Eternal is my life’s work,” he told Premier Guitar, “and producing – that’s where I channel a different part of my creativity. I want to help bands create the best version of themselves.” With a legacy that spans multiple roles and generations, Rutan continues to define and redefine the sound of extreme metal, both onstage and behind the scenes in the studio.
About Metal Blade Records:
Founded upon owner Brian Slagel‘s enduring drive to find great bands and get their music out to as many people as possible, since 1982 Metal Blade has brought wave after wave of powerful, innovative, and often genre-defining music to the ever-hungry metal masses. It is this ethos that has seen Metal Blade build up a stunning and diverse catalog, weather the various storms facing any independent label, and in an age of declining record sales boast the most successful years of its existence as it celebrates its fourth decade.
Metal Blade Records launched Metallica, Slayer, Armored Saint, Fates Warning, GWAR, Cannibal Corpse, Amon Amarth, Whitechapel, The Black Dahlia Murder, Cattle Decapitation, and dozens more genre giants, shaping four decades and counting of hard rock, metal, and extreme music culture. Brian Slagel worked as a record store clerk when he founded Metal Blade in 1982, reserving a spot for a young Lars Ulrich on his Metal Massacre compilation series.
BEAST EAGLE returns with “Witch Hunt,” a ferocious new single that captures the band’s raw intensity and unrelenting vision. The song strikes with primal force, a collision of thunderous drums, snarling guitars, and vocals steeped in fury and defiance.
“Witch Hunt” tells the story of a village consumed by vengeance, where fear twists into chaos and fire becomes a weapon. It is a tale of justice gone wrong and wrath turned loose, a song that feels both ancient and immediate. Every note burns with purpose, pulling listeners into a storm of sound and emotion that refuses to fade.
The single paves the way for BEAST EAGLE’s forthcoming EP, Sorceress, set for release on November 21 through Golden Robot Records. The record delves into themes of control, identity, and transformation, offering a darker and more introspective side of the band’s evolving sound.
Line Up: Kate Lewis (Vocals) Austin L’Ecuyer (Guitarist) August Sievering (Drums) Toby Wandel (Bassist)

My Best Metal Buddy Scott Coverdale bought me this fantastic Lita FordLive &Deadly CD several years ago. He has gifted me some sensational vinyl, CDs and concert merch over the last couple of decades and yes, I have gratitude!

With the album Babylon now out for just over a month, DIRKSCHNEIDER & THE OLD GANG can celebrate not only impressive chart positions in several countries, but also a wave of acclaim from both fans and the international music press.
Among the album’s many praised moments, “Beyond The End Of Time” has emerged as a clear favourite, a near-eight-minute epic that closes the album on a deeply emotional and timeless note.
“Beyond The End Of Time” would also still fit into an era in which people once sang about princesses. The harmonious band accompaniment creates space for the emotional vocals of Udo, Peter and Manuela. Although almost eight minutes long, the piece remains captivating, constantly sets new accents and can even put the listener into a trance-like state.
As the closing statement of Babylon, “Beyond The End Of Time” feels like both a reflection and a promise, a song that bridges the past and present of heavy metal with heart and conviction. It’s no surprise that fans have taken to it as one of the standout moments of the band’s new chapter.
DIRKSCHNEIDER & THE OLD GANG (DATOG) was originally launched in 2020 as a one-off charity project, but quickly developed a momentum of its own and formed into a band consisting of:
Udo Dirkschneider – lead vocals
Peter Baltes – bass, lead & backing vocals
Manuela “Ella” Bibert – lead & backing vocals, keys
We are truly humbled and grateful to receive our fourth GRAMMY nomination. After 40 years together, it still means so much to be recognized by the music community. When we began writing ‘Night Terror,’ it felt special to us on a personal level — so to see it resonate in this way is something we don’t take for granted. Thank you to the Recording Academy for this honor, and congratulations to all of the nominees this year.
Metal Nerds Inc. has joined forces with RFK Media to deliver the new 44-page comic book/graphic novel KEELWORLD, in which the Metal Cowboy undertakes a journey through time, from the Hollywood heyday of the 80s to the post-apocalyptic future.
THE SONG: A Metal Cowboy classic, “The Last Ride” is a fast-paced anthem that combines the musical energy of Keel’s metal spirit with the southwest roots that have characterized his work for the past 30 years. A thunderous drum groove courtesy of Mike Vanderhule (Y&T) provides the foundation for Ron’s guitars and vocals, the solo section pits Rascal Flatts’ Travis Toy on dobro against Keith Roberts’ relentless guitar licks, and the lyrics are some of Ron Keel’s best (“Inside and out I’ve earned these scars, from the Sunset Strip to the cowboy bars”).
All links to the CD, downloads, and streaming platforms are one click away at: http://lnk.to/thelastride.
THE VIDEO: Inspired by the comic book and created by Jason McCorriston/McCardy Media, this clip brings the story to life in stunning fashion, recreating the glory years of yesterday amidst the threat of a future ruled by A.I. – available to view exclusively at http://youtube.com/@ronkeelrfkmedia.
THE COMIC BOOK: Published by Metal Nerds Inc. and distributed by RFK Media, this project was written by Brett Monro and Morten Kristiansen, with four different artists bringing each era to life; Francesco Iaquinta, Andrey Portilla, Mauro Bueno, and EV Cantada created distinct visions of yesterday and tomorrow. The book also includes an autographed two-sided pull-out poster, and it’s available at http://rfkmediashop.com.
I’m just driven to create stuff and entertain people,” Ron Keel explains. “Everything we do at RFK Media – the radio station, the movie stuff, the comic book, of course the albums and songs, and whatever else the future holds, it’s still all about the music. The music is our wheels, and without that there wouldn’t be any Last Ride.”
