FROM THE OFFICIAL JENNIFER FINCH FACEBOOK: 

 “We are devastated to announce the death of our partner, sister, daughter, and friend Jennifer Precious Finch. Jennifer’s impact on the world of music was seismic; her impact on our lives, even moreso. We appreciate everyone’s interest and concern, thank you for all the kind messages. We appreciate some space to heal privately during this difficult time.” - Official FB of Jennifer Finch

 

FROM L7: 

 

“We are shattered by the loss of our beloved bandmate, sister and friend Jennifer Finch, whose fierce spirit, humor and boundless creativity helped shape L7 and changed all of our lives forever.

Jennifer was a true original who lived entirely on her own terms, and the impact she made on music, art and everyone lucky enough to know her cannot be measured. We love her beyond words and will carry her with us always. Rest in power our dear friend.

With Love,

L7”

 

FROM SARAH JEZEBEL DEVA: 

 

The last few days, I've been thinking about how short life is. Ever wonder if it really is worth it being angry at people you don't know? Wasting your time arguing with people you don't know? Slagging off people you don't know, just to make yourself feel better? Is it all worth it..... life goes by in a blink of an eye.

I read a few weeks ago, maybe more, that Jennifer of L7 was ill, of course I never expected to wake up to this. She passed away and it's just been announced. L7 were a massive band influence for me as a teen. They were the first all female band I ever gave a shit about and still on only one, the only one that ever stood out to me, that never gave a shit about what anyone thought. Majorly influenced me... I never met them, never knew them, but just want to pass on my respects to L7 Official .... the friends, the family. So sad about this. Cancer is awful.... death is awful. Losing people you love, even people you dislike.....it's tragic. Thank you for influencing people like me, who thought women couldn't possibly have a place in metal.

Sleep well beautiful

Thanks-Stay Metal, Stay Brutal-R.I.P.  

 

GOROD: POST VISUALIZER FOR NEW TRACK "REMAINS"

 

 French technical death metal warriors GOROD have posted a visualizer  video for "REMAINS" , a track from the bands anticipated new release  "THE EMBER GONE", due to be unleashed 8/28/2026 via BASE PRODUCTIONS.   

GOROD have announced FALL 2026 EUROPEAN TOUR DATES WITH ALLEGAEON and ABYSMAL DAWN.

 FROM GOROD: 

 

Watch the full video clip: https://youtu.be/0ooSyHdyntE

"Forgiveness" is a nearly 8-minute short film on the era of fire directed by Sébastien Duattis.The title explores the theme of the Pyrocene through the eyes of a father, torn between the regret of leaving behind a world consumed by flames and the weight of his own responsibility. Musically, this is our most progressive work to date: a synthesis where Gorod’s technicality meets epic structures and sonic territories the band has never explored before.

FROM BRUTAL ASSAULT 2026 PROMOTERS: 

 

Sometimes, last-minute plans crumble to make room for something even darker. Due to technical reasons, we won’t be seeing Cradle of Filth on stage this year. While we deeply regret this loss, the fortress won't remain empty—instead of British gothic theater, we are bringing you the icy North, which needs neither lace nor corsets to cast its spell. Joining the ranks is the elite of Norwegian black metal: Satyricon.

Furthermore, later this afternoon we will announce updates to the festival's running order. We’ve been working hard on these to resolve the biggest genre clashes in our schedule. Stay tuned to our channels!

Někdy se plány na poslední chvíli zbortí, aby uvolnily místo něčemu ještě temnějšímu. Z technických důvodů letos na pódiu neuvidíme Cradle of Filth. Tahle ztráta nás mrzí, ale v pevnosti prázdno nezůstane - místo britského gotického divadla přivážíme ledový sever, který nepotřebuje krajky ani korzety k tomu, aby vás uhranul. Do šiku nastupuje norská blackmetalová elita – Satyricon.

Už dnes odpoledne navíc oznámíme změny v running orderu festivalu, na kterých jsme usilovně pracovali, tak abychom vyřešili ty největší žánrové konflikty v našem programu. Tak zůstaňte naladěni na naše kanály!
