Muse, The Killers, Twenty One Pilots to headline iHeartRadio’s ALTer Ego concert

Muse, Twenty One Pilots, and the Killers are just some of the rock bands that will make their way to California in early 2019 for iHeartRadio’s second annual ALTer Ego concert. On Monday (Oct. 1), the media giant confirmed the lineup for their alternative music-centric show. Joining Twenty One Pilots, Muse and the Killers on the newly announced roster will be Weezer, Rise Against, Bishop Briggs, and the Revivalists.

According to a press release, the event will broadcast live across over 70 alternative and rock iHeartRadio stations, giving listeners who couldn’t make it the show the opportunity to hear some of rock’s biggest artists live.

“This has become alternative music’s biggest night,” said John Sykes, President of Entertainment Enterprises for iHeartMedia. “Millions of fans will be listening and watching this incredible lineup performing on stage at the Forum.”

“This will be one of the strongest alternative performance lineups to ever appear on one stage,” mirrors Tom Poleman, Chief Programming Officer for iHeartMedia.

“It’s such a strong lineup that it’s impossible to refer to any one of these incredible artists as the headliner – in fact, several of the performers have told us that it’s a show they would want to go to even if they weren’t already on the bill.”

Those who would like to attend the event will be given a special 24-hour, pre-sale offer courtesy of Los Angeles alternative radio station, ALT 98.7. ALT 98.7’s pre-sale will begin this Thursday, Oct. 4, at 10 a.m. PST and conclude this Friday, Oct. 5, at 10 a.m. PST. General ticket sales will then begin on Friday at 10 a.m.

iHeartRadio’s ALTer Ego concert will take place on Jan. 19, 2019 at the Forum in Los Angeles.

ALTer Ego joins a lengthy list of iHeartRadio concert series including the iHeartRadio Music Festival, the iHeartRadio Music Awards, iHeartRadio’s Jingle Ball concert tour, the newly launched iHeartRadio Fiesta Latina, the iHeartCountry Festival by AT&T, and the iHeartRadio Wango Tango by AT&T.

With their massive summer tour about to kick off in a few short months, Rise Against have recently announced some big news.

Titled The Ghost Note Symphonies Vol.1, the album will contain re-imagined versions of previously released Rise Against songs.

According to their post on Twitter, the songs will be”stripped down, with alternate instrumentation, unique orchestration, and a surprise or two.” The album was recorded at the Blasting Room in Fort Collins, Colorado with producers Bill Stevenson and Jason Livermore.

In addition to the compilation’s announcement, the band also unveiled the music video for the first song from the record, “House on Fire.” Watch the video for stripped down version of the Wolves track above.

Rise Against confirms new album by unleashing new single

When Rise Against announced that they would be hitting the road in the summer, some fans were quick to assume that they would be releasing some new tunes in conjunction with the tour. On Thursday (April 20), the Chicago-founded band confirmed that they will release their eighth studio album in June. The new record is titled Wolves and is set to be released on June 9 through Virgin Records.

In addition to the new album confirmation, the band has also released the lead single from the record, “The Violence.” Listen to “The Violence” above. Pre-orders for Wolves is currently available on the band’s website here.

Wolves found the Illinois boys moving to Nashville to record the new record which was produced by Nick Raskulinecz whose resume boosts bands like the Foo Fighters, Mastodon, and summer 2017 tour mates, the Deftones. In statement, frontman Tim McIlrath revealed the effect moving to Tennessee to record the album had on the band.

“Living in Nashville drove home that we can’t just focus on our differences. If we can stop and talk to each other, face to face, we might realize our common ground. We are all wolves in the same pack, circling at the gates.”

In support of Wolves, Rise Against announced two free shows before kicking off their massive joint summer excursion with the Deftones and Thrice. The group’s upcoming summer tour will now kick off with two new stops; one on Friday, April 21, at the House of Vans in Chicago and the other on Monday, April 24, at the House of Vans in Brooklyn. Both House of Vans shows are free with fans given the chance to RSVP to either show ahead of time. To RSVP for the Chicago date, click here and for the Brooklyn date, click here.

We can’t wait to put Deftones and Rise Against fans under the same roof in 2017.”

Mirroring Rise Against’s statement about the upcoming tour, the Deftones wrote on Facebook: “We’ve been talking to Rise Against about touring together for a while now. Finally, everything aligned and we get to spend the summer playing shows with our friends. We couldn’t be more excited and can’t wait to see you at the shows.”
