Featured Up and Coming Artists:
Swiss rockers King Zebra are pleased to unveil their new single and official video, “A Love I’ve Never Known”, out now via Frontiers Music Srl.
Hailing from the picturesque city of Zurich, Switzerland, King Zebra is a melodic hard rock powerhouse that has been making waves in the international rock scene since their inception in 2017.
Led by the charismatic frontman Eric St. Michaels, a seasoned veteran in the world of rock 'n' roll, the band has been on a relentless journey to redefine the genre with their electrifying sound.
Eric St. Michaels, originally from the vibrant rock scene of New Jersey, found a new home in Switzerland over two decades ago. His powerful and soulful vocals are best known from his time as the former lead singer of the renowned band China.
The renowned Canadian singer Paul Laine is thrilled to unveil his new single, “Love Me Or Leave Me”, taken from the upcoming new studio album, “The Long Road Back”, out on September 25, 2026, via Frontiers Music Srl.
A masterclass in melodic rock, Paul Laine’s new album delivers soaring hooks, heartfelt ballads, and arena-ready anthems that traverse the full spectrum of the genre. From the driving energy of “Love Me Or Leave Me”, to the intimate vulnerability of “Someday” (co-written with Andrew Oye), every track is meticulously crafted, showcasing Laine’s signature vocal power and melodic sensibility. “Don’t Let Me Go Tonite” comes alive with a striking video that complements its infectious energy.
Frontiers Music Srl is pleased to announce the signing of Germany's rising rock force Velvet Rush. To celebrate the announcement, the band has released their new single and accompanying video, “Nature Of The Beast”, available now.
Hailing from Hamburg, Germany, Velvet Rush are breathing new life into modern rock with a sound rooted in blues-infused hard rock, '70s attitude, and contemporary energy. Fronted by the charismatic Sandra Lian, whose powerful and untamed vocals sit at the heart of the band's identity, Velvet Rush combine authenticity, groove, and raw emotion into a sound that feels both timeless and fresh.
Beaux Gris Gris & The Apocalypse:
Beaux Gris Gris & The Apocalypse are back — and they’re bringing receipts. The California-based (Louisiana & UK born) rock & roots powerhouse group release their explosive new single “Me-Ye-Ye-Yow!” on Friday, June 12th, 2026: a snarling, high-voltage blues-rock anthem that arrives alongside a music video as technically audacious as it is gloriously unhinged.
There’s a message in “Me-Ye-Ye-Yow!” — and it’s not subtle. We live in a world of mass corporate surveillance, centralized data collection, and algorithmic systems designed to monitor, predict, and monetize human behavior. Most people accept this as the cost of modern life. Beaux Gris Gris & The Apocalypse respectfully disagree.
The Temperance Movement, have announced their fourth album, New Promise Land Incorporated, is coming October 9th via Earache Records. They have also shared the record’s first single, “Eat You Alive.”
New Promise Land Incorporated signals the beginning of an entirely new chapter. Recorded in April 2026 and produced and mixed by acclaimed producer Ethan Johns (Kings of Leon, Laura Marling, Ray LaMontagne), the album marks the band’s first collection of all-new material in eight years.
Capturing the raw electricity that has always defined The Temperance Movement, the album delivers exactly what longtime fans have been waiting for: powerful live-to-tape energy, deeply soulful songwriting, blues-soaked riffs, towering grooves, and the unmistakable chemistry of five musicians reconnecting at precisely the right moment.
Scarlet Rebels have announced their new album, Flawed By Design, set for release on 13 November 2026 via Earache Records. Pre-orders are available now.
Following the success of Where The Colours Meet (2024), which became the Welsh rockers second consecutive UK Top 20 album, Scarlet Rebels return with a collection of 11 songs that showcase a band at the very top of their game.
King Kraken is a four-piece Rock/Metal band from South Wales, UK. In 2025 they released their second album, 'March of the Gods', with two of their four singles playlisted on Planet Rock and Kerrang Radio. Positive album reviews poured in, including reviews from big hitters such as Kerrang and features in Metal Hammer magazine. With a new album and hefty praise from the rock/metal press, the band headed out on a headline tour.
The band has played Bloodstock Festival, Call of the Wild, Planet Rock’s Rockstock and Stonedead Festival. They were the first band to play the Bloodstock Winter Gathering event at KK’s Steel Mill in Wolverhampton.
They have just released their second single of 2026 with 'I Am The Apocalypse'. An ominous, stomping, menace ridden track that delves deep into dark themes of false prophets, blind devotion and dangerous cult mentality.
Nearing the release of their third album, Night is Calling, rising modern metal stars Dominum are sharing the title track as another single. “Night is Calling” combines thunderous riffs, cinematic atmosphere, and another massive sing-along hook to pull listeners into the captivating world of Dr. Dead. The dark yet uplifting track features a powerful guest appearance from Marina La Torraca of Battle Beast, giving Dominum’s whizkid catalog another highlight. Theatrics, horror aesthetics, and area-ready choruses make for another brilliant release.
Swedish hard-rock risers Velveteen Queen have unveiled the video for their new single "Adrenaline". The track is the second single from their eagerly anticipated sophomore album, The Greater Good, set for release on September 18th via Silver Lining Music.
There’s a new generation of young glam/trash rockers hungry for real, no-frills rock ’n’ roll and with The Greater Good, Velveteen Queen confidently and successfully deliver that and then some.
The high-voltage energy captured on the record will soon be unleashed on stage, with Velveteen Queen poised to turn every show into a full-throttle rock ’n’ roll event.
The Sonic Rootz are a remarkable blues/rock band made up of three siblings with extraordinary talent. Currently aged 18, 14 and 11, their musical maturity and deep passion for the genre make them a truly unique case on the international music scene.
Their debut album, “The Electric Babies Revolution”, released in July 2023 on vinyl and CD, marked a historic milestone: The Sonic Rootz became the youngest band ever to have written, arranged and produced a full album of original material.
This achievement received wide recognition from major Italian and international media, including RAI – Italian National Television and Corriere della Sera, which highlighted the band as a unique and unprecedented phenomenon in contemporary music. Nine original tracks infused with the spirit of authentic blues rock.
AOR sensation Issa, AKA Isabell Øversveen, is excited to share her new single and official video, "Pay The Price", taken from the upcoming album, “Fire And Ice”, out on August 28, 2026, via Frontiers Music Srl.
