Recent developments
All Shall Perish hit their album crowdfunding goal. The band marked the milestone by premiering “Led To Slaughter.” More than $83,000 had been raised for the record when The PRP reported the news on September 25, 2026. The single is here; an album release date is not part of this announcement.
Motörhead revisit “Orgasmatron.” A new mix of the title track is available to hear as part of a 40th-anniversary edition, according to The PRP’s September 25, 2026 report. Put the revamped track on your listening list if you want an anniversary detour between today’s new songs.
Nothing But Thieves discuss a change of direction. In an interview published by NME on September 25, 2026, the band discuss their introspective album Stray Dogs, a smaller, noisier approach and the importance of grassroots venues. It’s a useful read about artistic choices, not a concert announcement.
New Music Drops
Recent developments: new music and visuals
Tom Morello and KNEECAP have launched a video for “Unconquered.” Morello’s rock solo album Everyone Gets Everything They Want has also landed, as The PRP reported on September 25, 2026. Start with the video, then follow the album lead if the collaboration catches your ear.
SCATTERBRAIN, helmed by former I Prevail vocalist Brian Burkheiser, have shared an “ADDICTED TO THE HABIT” video, per The PRP on September 25, 2026. For a second new visual in today’s queue, Frontierer have rolled out a video for “Our Mainframe Earache,” also reported by The PRP on September 25, 2026.
SAVE US have put a video for “Last Of Me” online. Their album Death To Something is due in October on Solid State; The PRP published that update on September 25, 2026. That makes the video a current watch and the album a forthcoming release—not a record that arrived today.
Live Shows & Discoveries
Live-performance discovery: Linkin Park on screen
Linkin Park have released a live video of “Waiting For The End” alongside the UNSHATTER soundtrack. The PRP reported both on September 25, 2026, adding that the film is set to open in theaters the following week. Watch the performance as a live-music feature rather than a tour listing: notice where the arrangement leaves space, where the energy builds and how the song reaches its finish.
