Kat Von D released her latest single and music video ‘Truth in Reverse’ a while ago, another fantastic track of her upcoming new album ‘My Side of the Mountain’, set for release on September 20!

Thundermother’s founder, songwriter and guitar player Filippa Nässil is set to release her debut solo album ‘American Diaries’ via Despotz Records this Autumn, and shared the new single ‘Mount Shasta’!

We are still remembering the goth darkness we got to enjoy for a moment in the Helldorado stage tent at Alcatraz earlier this summer with Unto Others, and in a couple of weeks we’ll get to enjoy more of this new era of the band with their new album ‘Never, Neverland’ out via Century Media Records! Another single with ‘Momma Likes the Door Closed’ was released about a week ago, and it’s all we’ve ever wanted with heavy riffing and goth vibes!

Yesterday Tuska announced the exciting French duo Eihwar for their 2025 line-up, and we can’t wait to experience their “Viking War Trance” dance party in real life! In the mean time, they recently released an official live video for their ‘Berserkr’ track so you can go and get a taste!

A couple of weeks ago, the shoegaze and grunge pop act chokecherry shared a video for the single ‘No Other Place’, bringing a certain 90s nostalgia into our lives. Out with Fearless Records!

While the summer is about to be wrapping up, we can already look ahead towards the summer of 2025, especially after Tuska just announced the first 16 confirmed acts for next year’s edition with Electric Callboy, Powerwolf, Nothing More, Orbit Culture, Kim Dracula, Korpiklaani, Marko Hietala, Tarja, Charlotte Wessels, thrown, Eihwar, Timo Rautiainen & Trio Niskalaukaus, Blood Command, Arion and Tyrantti and the first announced headliner with Lorna Shore!

What do you think? What bands are you still hoping for?

Covering a wide range of musical genres, STARS IN TOWN 2024 brought a full Friday of indie, alternative, punk, and rock with DONOTS, EDITORS and PLACEBO. Turning the historical Herrenacker in the heart of Schaffhausen old town (Switzerland) into a festival infield. An event with a very special location and flair.

In the beginning of July, we hosted our very own Midsummer Folkfestival, fittingly named Litha Fest, and it was a great success with workshops, a lovely market and tons of other things to discover besides the amazing performances of Hert, Faybula, Sorcières, Nytt Land and Faie!

Árstíðir Lífsins on its sixth full length album “Aldrlok” recounts the timeless tales of old Norse history and turbulent times of change in Iceland. The nine cuts combine modern and classic black metal into an epic black metal album that stands unique in the band’s musical works, out via Ván Records.

Get ready for some dancing! Eihwar unleashed their explosive new single and video ‘Viking War Trance’, both the title track of their upcoming debut set for release in September via Season of Mist and a perfect representation of their “Viking Carpenter Brut” music style!
