Rising out of Orlando in 2004, Alter Bridge was built by musicians who weren’t ready to stop making music together. Guitarist Mark Tremonti, drummer Scott Phillips, and bassist Brian Marshall had all been part of Creed, a band that saw massive success but eventually fractured under pressure. The trio knew they had more to say, and they found the missing piece in Myles Kennedy, a skilled vocalist and guitarist who had previously fronted The Mayfield Four. With Kennedy onboard, Alter Bridge was born — not as a continuation of what came before, but as an entirely new voice, formed with purpose and clarity. Their name, inspired by an actual bridge near Tremonti’s childhood home in Detroit, symbolized the transition they were about to make: crossing over into territory that was both musically daring and emotionally unflinching.

Alter Bridge wasted no time getting into the studio. Their debut album, One Day Remains, was released in August 2004 through Wind-up Records. Though Kennedy had just joined the band, the majority of the songs were written prior to his arrival, with Tremonti handling most of the songwriting duties. That didn’t stop the album from hitting hard — it reached number five on the Billboard 200 and eventually earned gold certification. Tracks like “Open Your Eyes,” “Find the Real,” and “Broken Wings” announced the band with clarity, blending heavy instrumentation with a melodic core that became a hallmark of their sound. It was a clear break from their past affiliations and a confident step into a new creative identity.

With their second album, Blackbird, released in 2007 through Universal Republic, the band came into full bloom. It marked the first time Tremonti and Kennedy collaborated fully as songwriters, and the result was a cohesive and emotionally rich body of work that pushed their sound forward. The title track, “Blackbird,” became one of their most beloved and enduring songs, featuring a dual guitar solo that Guitarist magazine readers would later vote the greatest of all time in 2011. The album didn’t chase commercial trends — it chased something deeper, and that pursuit of sincerity and musicianship began to define Alter Bridge’s legacy.

In 2010, the band released AB III, a record that darkened their sound and explored far more introspective lyrical terrain. Themes of spiritual doubt, isolation, and existential reflection ran through the album, giving it a raw and haunted quality that stood apart from their earlier work. The single “Isolation” became a milestone, climbing to the top of the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart — their first number one on that chart. AB III was a declaration that the band wasn’t afraid to take risks, even if it meant going into heavier, more emotionally intense places than before.

Three years later, Fortress arrived in 2013 with a clear sense of urgency and innovation. The album was more progressive, technically daring, and ambitious. Kennedy and Tremonti pushed each other creatively, delivering tracks like “Addicted to Pain” and “Cry of Achilles” that showcased their intricate guitar work and dynamic songwriting. The critical response was overwhelmingly positive, with reviewers praising the album’s complexity and emotional weight. The band had evolved without shedding their identity — they were sharpening it.

The Last Hero, released in 2016, saw Alter Bridge leaning into the political climate of the time, though never in a heavy-handed way. It was a call for accountability in leadership, and a reflection on the disillusionment many fans felt with the state of the world. Songs like “Show Me a Leader” tapped into that unrest. The album maintained their signature sound while charging it with timely urgency, proving they could engage with current events without compromising their artistic integrity.

Their sixth studio release, Walk the Sky, arrived in 2019 with a slightly different edge. It incorporated electronic textures and synth elements into their otherwise guitar-driven palette, expanding the band’s sonic range while preserving their core identity. Songs like “Wouldn’t You Rather” and “Pay No Mind” showed that evolution doesn’t mean abandoning roots — it means building on them. The album debuted at number one on the Billboard Top Current Albums chart, reinforcing that Alter Bridge remained a commercial force as well as a critical one.

In 2022, the band returned with Pawns & Kings, an album that reaffirmed their place in modern rock with lyrical depth and instrumental mastery. The title track’s solo earned accolades from Guitar World readers, a reminder that Tremonti remains one of the most respected players in the business. But this band has never been about one person — it’s about the collective drive to make music that matters. Over nearly two decades, Alter Bridge has built a career on hard truths, technical brilliance, and unwavering commitment to authenticity. Their music speaks to resilience, reflection, and the courage to cross bridges most artists are too afraid to approach.

Founding Sepultura drummer Iggor Cavalera has discussed the band’s early fascination with Satanism.

Cavalera, who started Sepultura with his brother Max in 1984, says during an interview with podcast White Centipede Noise that the Brazilians shared a Satanic streak with several other artists in the country’s 80s metal scene.

He explains that it wasn’t about worshipping the Devil himself as much as it was about “attacking the [Catholic] Church”, which had strong political power in South America at the time.

“The church is controlling everything in South America,” he adds (via Blabbermouth), “and they’re involved in politics, and as we all know, they’re the most evil thing. They came in and they really raped the land with the colonisation and everything. So for us to go against the church, it was an act of rebellion.”

The drummer later emphasises that neither nor his bandmates have ever been true “Satan worshippers”.

“That wasn’t our thing,” he continues. “Of course, I study a lot of, like, the dark side of things, I read a lot of books, but I was never… ’Cause I believe they’re all the creation of the same thing – the evil and the good and Satan, in my opinion, is also a creation of the church. So for us to worship that, it was almost like, ‘Oh, how come you don’t accept Jesus, but you accept that one, which is kind of like… they’re the yin-yang.’”

Iggor adds that Satanism let the Brazilian scene differentiate itself from the themes of metal in North America and in Europe. “We didn’t like how metal was made in Europe or in America, ’cause it was too polished,” he says. “And they were talking about dragons and slaying castles. And we’re like, ‘That’s not our reality.’”

Iggor left Sepultura in 2006, 10 years after Max quit the band due to disputes over the role of their manager (and Max’s wife), Gloria Cavalera. The brothers reconnected shortly after Iggor’s exit and started the collaborative project Cavalera Conspiracy.

In recent years, the Cavaleras have re-recorded Sepultura’s first EP, 1985’s Bestial Devastation, and their first two albums: 1986’s Morbid Visions and 1987’s Schizophrenia.

The brothers have been playing early Sepultura material on the road. They will perform songs from the band’s landmark 1993 album, Chaos A.D., together when they support Slayer at the thrashers’ only North America show of the year in September.

Sepultura continue to perform without the Cavaleras and are currently in the middle of their farewell tour, which is set to extend into 2026.

In 2018 Lifesigns mastermind John Young – whose career includes stints with Jon Anderson, John Wetton, the Strawbs, Steeleye Span and more – offered Prog a glimpse into his musical world.

---

Where’s home?

Leighton Buzzard in Bedfordshire. It’s the unconfirmed capital of prog! Loads of people live round here – I can see Nick Beggs’ house from mine…

Your first prog memory?

My dad buying me a copy of The Beach Boys’ Good Vibrations in the mid-60s. That, and Alan ‘Fluff’ Freeman playing great stuff on his Saturday Rock Show, like Edgar Winter’s Frankenstein.

First prog gig?

Queen at the Liverpool Empire in 1974. They were still doing stuff from Queen II like Ogre Battle, which I loved.

The first prog record you bought?

The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway by Genesis. I went to their show at the Liverpool Empire on the Friday night [in 1975], bought the album on Saturday, and went to the show again on the Sunday, by which time I knew all the words.

Favourite piece of technology?

My MacBook Pro is permanently attached to me. It’s like taking your office with you wherever you go.

Any guilty pleasures in your music collection?

Eva Cassidy’s Songbird. Her version of Somewhere Over The Rainbow gets me every time. How did a record company not find her earlier? How could you miss a voice like that? It sums up the state of the business completely.

What would your Mastermind specialist subject be?

British civil aviation from 1945 to 1970.

Your biggest prog extravagance?

Maybe Cruise To The Edge. We’ve played it ourselves, but it’s a pure joy to go just to see the other bands.

Your favourite venue?

Trading Boundaries – it’s an exceptional and unique gig. There should be a franchise of them – they do such a great job. And I do wish The Marquee was still there in London.

Outside of prog, what else are you into?

Outside of aviation, country walks and riding my bike. It’s a bit boring really, isn’t it?!

Who is your prog hero?

Patrick Moraz. I loved his creativity, his sense of melody and soul. So much prog is mathematical, but he brought romance to it, and to Yes.

Are you a collector?

Of nerdy aviation stuff. It’s amazing what people sell on eBay these days: old manuals and things from Imperial Airways and BOAC. There’s a big market for it – there’s a lot of history tied in there.

What was the last album you bought?

Cardington by Lifesigns! We needed to check Amazon was working properly for us, so I bought one. Other than that, Life by Knower, a great pop/jazz/funk band from the US.

What was the last gig you went to?

Cruise To The Edge; we were playing, but the favourite things I saw were Adrian Belew and Focus. I’m gutted I missed Gong.

I used to sing Yes when I worked at the bank. It didn’t go down well and I didn’t last very long

Have you ever been on a prog date?

Is there such a thing? My first girlfriend and I used to go to a club in Liverpool called Le Metro, and once the DJ played all four sides of Tales From Topographic Oceans. He must’ve wanted an easy night.

Who do you call in the prog community for a good night out?

Generally it’s the band. We’re all good friends, as well as being in the group together, which is the beauty of it. The lovely thing about prog is you make such good friends through it.

What’s the most important prog song for you?

Sound Chaser off Yes’ Relayer. I used to sing the opening line when I worked at the till at a bank. It didn’t go down well and I didn’t last very long.

Which prog muso would you love to work with?

Kate Bush. I’d happily watch her bake cakes! She’s genius personified, and I’d love her to hear what we do.

Which is the prog album that always gets you in a good mood?

Garden Shed by England. It’s pure English prog joy.

Who’s the best prog artist you’ve ever seen live?

Gentle Giant. Dave Bainbridge and I both saw them separately during their Playing The Fool tour in 1976. You can hear me screaming on the live record – they blew me away.

Recommend us a good proggy read.

Arthur C Clarke’s Childhood’s End. It’s a beautiful way of looking at the world.

What’s your favourite prog album cover?

I do love the covers that Brett Wilde’s done for us, but I’ll say Frank Zappa’s Ship Arriving Too Late To Save A Drowning Witch. It makes me laugh every time I see it. It’s so clever.

UK metalcore favourites Loathe have returned with their first new music since 2021.

The Liverpudlian four-piece released the single Gifted Every Strength via SharpTone today (May 2). It’s their first release since the standalone single Dimorphous Display in 2022, which followed 2021 album The Things They Believe.

Have a listen below.

Loathe began debuting new songs on a recent North American tour with Spiritbox. Footage of them performing on as-yet-unreleased track with Jami Morgan of Code Orange was uploaded to YouTube.

The band haven’t confirmed their long-awaited fourth studio album yet, but it has been in the works and is due to come out this year. Singer Kadeem France told 78 Amped in December: “There’s definitely a bit of an album coming [in 2025]. I don’t want to give away too much – or anything, really.”

Since the release of 2020 album I Let It In And It Took Everything, Loathe have been extremely in-demand on the live circuit, touring with the likes of Spiritbox, Korn, Gojira, Knocked Loose and more.

Their American run with Spiritbox wraps later this month, after which they’ll play at Download festival in the UK in June before trekking across Canada with Korn in September and October. They’re also booked to perform at When We Were Young in Las Vegas in October.

Loathe formed in 2015 and released their debut EP, Prepare Consume Proceed, later that year. Their 2017 debut album The Cold Sun came out to critical acclaim. I Let It In… received a glowing four-star review from Metal Hammer upon release.

Journalist Remfry Dedman wrote: “If the modus operandi for this album is to ensure that Loathe can no longer be pigeonholed, I Let It In And It Took Everything is a job well done, and is sure to be instrumental in putting them on the map as one of the most exciting bands to emerge from the British underground in a long time.”

Aerosmith vocalist Steven Tyler and the surviving members of Soundgarden have been added to the bill for Black Sabbath’s farewell show.

The news comes from Sabbath singer Ozzy Osbourne’s wife/manager Sharon via a new interview with The Guardian.

The feature also contains a quote from Rage Against The Machine guitarist Tom Morello, who’s the ‘musical director’ for the event taking place at Villa Park in Birmingham on July 5, saying that there are still “some pretty great surprises that are not posted anywhere”.

The two additions add to what was already one of the most star-studded hard rock/heavy metal lineups of all time. The event, promoted as Back To The Beginning, will feature the last sets from both Sabbath and Ozzy, who’s sustained a successful solo career since 1979.

Previously announced as support acts were Metallica, Slayer, Guns N’ Roses, Anthrax, Gojira and many, many more. There will also be a ‘supergroup’ featuring Fred Durst (Limp Bizkit), Billy Corgan (The Smashing Pumpkins), Papa V Perpetua (Ghost) and others. Famed actor Jason Momoa (Aquaman, Game Of Thrones, A Minecraft Movie) will compere.

The confirmation of Tyler’s appearance at Back To The Beginning comes several months after the news that Aerosmith will be retiring from touring, in large part due to the strain Tyler’s voice was under following an injury.

The classic rock legends said in a statement in August: “As you know, Steven’s voice is an instrument like no other. He has spent months tirelessly working on getting his voice to where it was before his injury. We’ve seen him struggling despite having the best medical team by his side. Sadly, it is clear, that a full recovery from his vocal injury is not possible.”

Soundgarden’s singer/guitarist Chris Cornell died by suicide in May 2017, aged 52. The remaining members – guitarist Kim Thayil, drummer Matt Cameron and bassist Ben Shepherd – have reunited multiple times since his death. In 2019, they hosted a tribute concert featuring performances by members of Audioslave, Alice In Chains, Foo Fighters and more.

In the Guardian feature, Ozzy, Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi and bassist Geezer Butler talk about the process of reuniting the band’s classic lineup, who haven’t appeared on stage together since 2005. Iommi reveals that he was the last member to be convinced to come back, but came around to the idea when he found out all Back To The Beginning proceeds will go to charity.

“I’m the one that said, ‘I don’t know if we should do it,’” he admits, “because we did a farewell tour [from 2016 to 2017] and I didn’t want to get into that thing like all the other bands are doing, saying it’s the last tour and then reappearing again. But I’ve been convinced, because we’re doing it for a reason.”

See the latest poster for Back To The Beginning below:

Wolfgang Van Halen does his family name proud on new Mammoth single “The End,” an up-tempo rocker featuring a healthy dose of the guitar heroics his late father Eddie Van Halen made famous.

You can watch the action-packed, star-studded video below.

“The End” explodes out of the gate with a furious tapped guitar lick that’s evidently embedded in the Van Halen DNA. After a brisk secondary lick that evokes “Mean Street,” the song shifts into a driving verse propelled by Van Halen’s energetic drumming. “The End” climaxes with a soaring, anthemic chorus and fiery guitar solo.

“I’ve had the tapping idea on the intro for ‘The End’ since before Mammoth,” Van Halen explained in a statement. “I was able to fit it into this world. It’s still over-the-top and shreddy, but it’s also melodic and controlled. Overall, I was doing some different things on the record, and I knew this was going to be a big step. Once we finished ‘The End,’ it felt really special to me.”

Wolfgang Van Halen Enlists Famous Friends for Epic ‘The End’ Video

Van Halen also recruited director Robert Rodriguez for the epic “The End” video, a modern-day interpretation of Rodriguez’s 1996 action-horror hit From Dusk Till Dawn. It stars Danny Trejo as a seedy nightclub owner who allows Mammoth to perform at the venue under the condition that they play quietly.

Naturally, the band doesn’t comply, and calamity ensues, featuring a horde of zombies, werewolves and vampires. Several Van Halen friends and family members also make cameos in the video, including Slash, Myles Kennedy, his mother Valerie Bertinelli and his wife Andraia Allsop.

In addition to the new song and video, Mammoth has announced a fall U.S. headlining tour with support from Kennedy. You can see the dates below.

Bruce Springsteen has released the third song from his upcoming set, Tracks II: The Lost Albums.

The song “Faithless” comes from the unreleased album of the same name that was recorded between the end of the Devils & Dust tour in November 2005 and the arrival of We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions in April 2006.

You can listen to “Faithless” below.

The song was slated for a soundtrack to a movie of the same name that was never released. The film is called a “spiritual Western” in a press release announcing the song. In addition to the title track, Faithless includes four instrumental pieces written for the movie.

The album was recorded before the film was even shot. “This was a really unusual collection of songs,” Springsteen notes. “You could recognize details and maybe a character or two. But for the most part, I just wrote atmospheric music that I thought would fit.”

While the album is mostly a solo LP recorded over two weeks in Florida — “Faithless” the song is a slow, acoustic number — E Street Band touring members Soozie Tyrell, Lisa Lowell, Curtis King, Jr., Michelle Moore and Ada Dyer, plus Patti Scialfa and producer Ron Aniello make appearances.

What’s on Bruce Springsteen’s ‘Tracks II: The Lost Albums’?

“Faithless” is the third song to be released from Tracks II: The Lost Albums, which comes out on June 27.

The set includes seven unreleased LPs and over 80 songs recorded between 1983 and 2018. “Faithless” follows “Rain in the River” from Perfect World and “Blind Spot” from the Streets of Philadelphia Sessions.

Guns N’ Roses kicked off their 2025 world tour on Thursday at Incheon, South Korea’s Songdo Moonlight Festival Park, delivering a 22-song set that closely resembled their recent outings.

You can watch video from the performance and see the set list below.

The first date of the tour — which sports the verbose title Because What You Want & What You Get Are Two Completely Different Things — marked the debut of new Guns N’ Roses drummer Isaac Carpenter, who replaced longtime drummer Frank Ferrer in March. Carpenter had previous GN’R affiliations, having played with Duff McKagan‘s Loaded from 2009 to 2011 and appearing on their 2011 album The Taking.

Otherwise, the biggest change-up during the band’s performance came from the set list order. Guns opened with “Welcome to the Jungle” for the first time since 2012, according to setlist.fm. Their stalwart reunion-era opener, “It’s So Easy,” appeared later in the evening.

As usual, the band drew most heavily from their epochal debut album Appetite for Destruction, playing seven of its 12 songs, including “Sweet Child O’ Mine,” “Nightrain” and faithful set closer “Paradise City.” Use Your Illusion epics “November Rain,” “Coma” and “Estranged” returned, as did the relative deep cut “Bad Obsession.” The band also represented Chinese Democracy with “Better,” “Sorry” and the title track.

Interestingly, of the four post-reunion songs Guns N’ Roses have released since 2021, only “Perhaps” appeared in the set. The show was also relatively light on covers by GN’R standards, with just four — Bob Dylan‘s “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door,” Wings‘ “Live and Let Die,” Glen Campbell’s “Wichita Lineman” and Velvet Revolver‘s “Slither” — making the cut.

Guns N’ Roses’ current tour will continue through the rest of the spring and early summer, scheduled to conclude on July 31 at Wacken Open Air. The band has not yet announced any North American dates.
