Calling themselves “atmospheric earth metal” (which I think is a pretty good description), End, Ocean is off to a great start with the five-piece metal outfit finishing up their first full-length release as we speak. Hailing from the Texas panhandle and bolstered by their EP release Currents, I think they’re worth checking out. Watch the video to their single “Discovered” here!

Love and Death and Resurrection
After an eight year hiatus, Love and Death return with 'Perfectly Preserved,' an eclectic and personal release for nu-metal icon and frontman Brian 'Head' Welch. Still at the heart of it all, the man with the dreads details his life in the spotlight after returning to Korn, the launch of a holistic recovery center, and his spearheading of an autobiographical documentary. As fresh as he's ever been at 50 years old, he's still got more to give.

Droning On
The world came to a halt in 2020, but London-based Drones trudged on, giving a voice to the hurt that circulates with (or without) a pandemic: "You shouldn’t underestimate the power of writing things down or literally speaking them out loud, which I’m learning. I’m glad I made these songs, no matter how personal they are."
