SPLIT CHAIN are making a quick East Coast strike this October, with two U.S. shows now booked in New York and New Jersey. The British nü-gaze band will be joined by DREAM FATIGUE for both dates, which means two nights of blurred guitars, heavy shimmer, and probably enough melancholy in […]

FROZEN SOUL have canceled their planned August tour with BODYBOX, MAUL, and ETERNAL following multiple deaths in the band’s families. The Texas death metal crew confirmed that drummer Matt Dennard’s father unexpectedly passed away on Friday, July 10. The loss comes just a few months after vocalist Chad Green lost […]

ALICE COOPER will bring the “Alice’s Attic” tour back to North American stages this fall, because apparently the attic still has a few cursed props left to unpack. The fall leg kicks off October 27 in Clearwater, FL, and runs through November 21 in Reno, NV. Before that, Cooper has […]

NARCOTIC WASTELAND will hit the road this August for the “Fentanyl Zombie Apocalypse Tour,” with VISITANT joining the main run and MONOCHROMATIC BLACK, IATT, and YOTUMA appearing on select dates.

WEEDEATER have announced a fall headlining run with a rotating support cast that includes ZEKE, ROYAL THUNDER, YES MA’AM, GWAR, and BRAT.

GALACTIC EMPIRE are taking their cinematic metal spectacle back on the road this September, because apparently movie scores were not dramatic enough until someone added masks, distortion, and the threat of synchronized riffing. The band first made its name by turning Star Wars compositions into metal arrangements, then expanded into […]

FIRES IN THE DISTANCE will team up with HINAYANA this September for the Circadian Tempest Tour 2026, a short U.S. run built for anyone who likes their melody dragged through fog, grief, and a tasteful amount of doom. The trek begins September 3 in Columbus, OH, and wraps September 11 […]

VADER will bring their Reign Forever in Kingdom of Blood North American tour across the U.S. and Canada this September, with JUNGLE ROT, FLESHCRAWL, and TRASH PANDA rounding out the bill. The run kicks off September 5 in Milwaukee, WI, and wraps September 27 in Chicago, IL. Along the way, […]

HYPOCRISY have added four U.S. headlining shows around their upcoming North American run with DIMMU BORGIR, SUFFOCATION, and HULDER.
