The Ghost Inside make their long-awaited return with ‘Aftermath’

The Ghost Inside are officially back!

On Wednesday (April 22), the California-founded band gave fans a massive dose of great news, news that you can say has been five years in the making.

This June, the band will release their much-anticipated fifth studio album, The Ghost Inside. The upcoming record is due out June 5 through the band’s home of Epitaph Records. Pre-orders for the album are currently available for purchase here.

Will Putney from Fit For an Autopsy did a lot of the technical aspects of the record like producing, engineering, and mixing while A Day to Remember’s Jeremy McKinnon co-produced.

As if that wasn’t good enough, the band also unleashed its first single, “Aftermath.” According to the group’s post on social media, the new tune is “a tribute to the community that supported us, stood by us, and raised us from the ashes.”

Watch the music video for “Aftermath” above, which features news footage from the tragic bus accident that changed their lives.

The Ghost Inside marks the group’s long-awaited return to the music world. Following a few setbacks during recovery, it’s nice to see that not only are they back, but they are back and ready to take on the world.

The Ghost Inside is the follow-up to 2014’s Dear Youth.

Stream Aiden’s New Single “Crawling Up From Hell”

The Aiden farewell tour is scheduled to begin later this month, but before the band can officially say good-bye to those that have stuck by their side since their inception, the band will be releasing their final album just in time for our favorite time of the year.

The last update frontman Wil Francis had posted informed fans that the recording process had been completed and the tracks had been sent out for mixing. Now, the Seattle-based band has given fans a taste of what to expect from their final effort. The lead single from Aiden is a track titled “Crawling Up From Hell” and sounds like a major nod to their breakout record, Nightmare Anatomy. Listen to “Crawling Up From Hell” below.

Aiden is set to be released on Halloween, though at this point we’re a little confused since it was originally Oct. 30 and now it’s looking like Oct. 31. For those wanting a physical copy of the record, pre-orders for that is currently available on the band’s website. Francis, during his last update, announced that only a limited amount of physical copies would be printed and those not purchased through pre-orders will be taken on the road. But for those okay with a digital copy, it will be available at no cost on the release date.

In support of the new album, and as a final farewell to their fans, Aiden will be hitting the road in November. The tour which has been named “The Last Sunrise Tour” will begin next Thursday (Oct. 22) in Venutra, CA and wrap up on Nov. 21 in their hometown on Seattle, WA. The complete list of tour dates can be seen here.

Four Year Strong Release “We All Float Down Here” Video

image

Almost a month after releasing the audio for the first single off of their impending new record, Four Year Strong have now given fans the music video for “We All Float Down Here.”

Instead of being a weird music video of sorts, the over three-minute clip follows the band as they get ready for a show from unloading the trailers and setting up the stage for rehearsals, to the actual performance on stage in front of excited fans.

Pretty cool, especially during the footage of the band live on stage in front of the packed venue; it almost feels like you’re actually at the show taking it all in.

Check out the video below.

“We All Float Down Here” is the first single off of Four Year Strong’s self-titled album set to be released on June 2 through Pure Noise Records. A few weeks ago, the band released a second new song from the upcoming record, a track titled “I’m a Big, Bright, Shining Star.”

Four Year Strong Show They’re “Bright, Shining Stars” with New Song

Four Year Strong have released another new song from their upcoming new album.

The Massachusetts band released the second single from their self-titled album, “I’m a Big, Bright, Shining Star.”

Watch the lyrics video for the new song below.

Four Year Strong is set to be released on June 2 through Pure Noise Records.

Pure Noise Records announced late last year that Four Year Strong and a slew of their roster would be releasing new albums in the new year. FYS’ self-titled joins Senses Fail’s Pull the Thorns from Your Heart, Hit the Light’s recently released Summer Bones, and The Story So Far’s self-titled as Pure Noise’s 2015 releases.

For those ready to get the album, pre-orders are currently available over at the band’s website.

“I’m a Big, Bright, Shining Star” joins recently released lead single, “We All Float Down Here” on the record.

The Story So Far Stream New Single

Last month, The Story So Far announced the release of their third studio album by “leaking” the first single off of the upcoming record on a CD during a Title Fight show in San Francisco.

Now, they’ve followed that up by releasing another new song from their self-titled, a track titled “Solo” this past weekend.

Check out the song below.

The Story So Far join a long list of fellow Pure Noise Records bands who have new albums coming out. Senses Fail’s Pull the Thorns from Your Heart is due out sometime this Summer, Hit the Lights just released Summer Bones on March 24, and just last week, Four Year Strong announced their self-titled will be hitting stores in June.

A pretty good year for Pure Noise Records, if we do say so ourselves.

The Story So Far will be released on May 19.

Four Year Strong to Release Self-Titled Album in June

Good news Four Year Strong fans, the band’s previously announced new album will be coming our way this Summer!

Back in December, Pure Noise Record revealed that Four Year Strong and many of their label mates would be putting out new records in the new year.

With so many of them already revealing the release dates for said albums, it was only a matter of time before Four Year Strong’s release date would be announced.

That day was today.

The band announced that their fifth studio album will not only be their self-titled, but it will also be released on June 2. Along with that announcement they revealed that the record was produced by Converge guitarist Kurt Ballou at his studio in Salem.

Also unveiled was the cover art for the record as well as the track list which will feature a re-recorded version of “Go Down in History” from 2014’s EP of the same name.

Check out the track list and cover art below.

XTRMST Tell “Coward” to Bow Their Head in New Song

wpid-tumblr_inline_neyfoe8qfz1qzxlbn.jpeg

Yesterday afternoon, AFI side project XTRMST premiered their morph-suit starring music video for lead single “Conformist.”

Now, the band which is made up of AFI frontman Davey Havok and bassist Jade Puget, have debuted another new song from their self-titled, debut record due out next week.

The song is titled “Coward, Bow Your Head.”

Yeah we know, a very powerful title and scary title, if we do say so ourselves.

During a recent interview with Alternative Press, Havok was asked about the identity of the so-called coward in the heavy song.

He responded by telling the magazine that they were not referring to one specific person, but rather all the people out there who claimed the straight-edge movement was a fraud.

Check out the song here.

XTRMST debut album, is set to be released next Tuesday, Nov. 18 through DJ Steve Aoki’s record label, DIM MAK.
