FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE A.D.A.M. MUSIC PROJECT Unleash Explosive New Single “Fame” Out Now via Astonish Entertainment A.D.A.M. Music Project have officially dropped their brand new single “Fame”, and it hits like a right hook you didn’t see coming. Out now on all digital platforms, the track dives headfirst into the chaotic, messy, and brutally real world of internet stardom. Blending hard rock muscle with metalcore bite, AMP pulls back the curtain on the darker side of online fame. Obsession, hunger, ego, burnout, and self-destruction all collide as “Fame” captures the pressure cooker reality of chasing influence in a digital world that never shuts up or slows down. Inspired by the rise and fall of major streamers, “Fame” calls out the brutal cost behind the persona. The track rips with Brandon Frazier on lead vocals, Adam DeGraide delivering crushing guitars, bass, and programming, and Jay Gleason tearing through searing lead guitar lines. The accompanying video pushes the message even further, offering a raw look at the spiral that happens when real life gets traded for constant digital validation. Project architect Adam DeGraide explains: “I feel like this is one of our strongest tracks we’ve ever written. It explores the mind of an online streamer obsessed with being the biggest and most successful in the world, ultimately ruining his own life in the pursuit of fame. At the same time, the song also shows the grit, will, and determination it takes to reach that so-called fame.” A.D.A.M. MUSIC PROJECT Rock Built for the Worlds Gamers Love If you haven’t stepped into the AMP universe yet, now’s the time. Led by producer, multi-instrumentalist, and creative force Adam DeGraide, A.D.A.M. Music Project fuses hard-hitting rock with gaming culture in a way few have even attempted. Think of it as a supercharged collective, a rotating cast of elite musicians crafting massive, cinematic rock anthems inspired by iconic video game characters and worlds. Current lineup includes: Adam DeGraide – vocals, guitar, bass, synths, programming Dameon Aranda – vocals, guitar Jay Gleason – lead guitar Jeff Hall – drums Additional vocal contributions from:Lacy Saunders, Brandon Frazier, Hartleigh Buwick, and Pete Mitchell With six full-length albums and millions of streams, AMP previously cracked the Billboard Top 40 Mainstream Rock Chart with their breakout single “Punch Out.” Their catalog celebrates everything from Apex Legends, Diablo, Sonic, Pokémon, Donkey Kong, DOOM, and God of War, blending nostalgia with modern rock firepower. Beyond the band, AMP also spearheads Astonish Entertainment, a creative label home to artists like No More Kings and Aranda. Astonish played a key role in launching No More Kings’ viral hit “Sweep the Leg,” a cultural moment that helped ignite what would become Cobra Kai. “Fame” Is Out Now Stream it here:https://open.spotify.com/track/1VTBcHzS52ucTIMMwtp6RG Check them out on YouTube and subscribe: [jrEmbed module="jrYouTube" youtube_id="cpnT9A4lpj8"] Connect: https://adammusicproject.comhttps://www.facebook.com/ampadammusicprojecthttps://www.instagram.com/adammusicproject/https://www.youtube.com/adammusicprojecthttps://adammusicproject.bandcamp.com/https://open.spotify.com/artist/19NbQWCfWWDi4gNidk4ooehttps://music.apple.com/us/artist/a-d-a-m-music-project/1636848085https://www.tiktok.com/@adammusicproject Contact: Chantal.reeder@gmail.com Less

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE HOOK & LACE IGNITE WITH NEW SINGLE “BLAZE”Debut Full-Length Album “Unblossoming” Arrives in 2026 UK-based solo artist Hook & Lace, the project of musician and producer Matt Corné, unleashes “Blaze”, the first single from the upcoming full-length album Unblossoming, out Friday, January 30th via Malonche Records. “Blaze” hits hard and fast, blending technical riffing, crushing groove, soaring vocals, and a space-like atmospheric edge. It’s aggressive without being mindless, melodic without being soft, and completely uninterested in staying inside neat genre lines. Call it progressive metal if you need a label, but Hook & Lace plays by feel, not rules. Created entirely independently by Corné, Hook & Lace thrives in the tension between noise and catchiness, heaviness and restraint. Fans will hear shades of Meshuggah’s rhythmic precision and Avenged Sevenfold’s melodic ambition, filtered through a singular vision that values impact over trends. “Blaze is the first single from Hook & Lace’s upcoming first full-length album, Unblossoming. It’s meant to hit immediately, then stick around. Heavy riffs, groove, atmosphere, and melody all colliding at once.” Unblossoming marks the next chapter for Hook & Lace, expanding on this balance of intensity and space while continuing to defy easy categorization. Every note on the project was written, performed, produced, mixed, and mastered by Matt Corné himself, keeping the sound raw, focused, and fully uncompromised.

Unauthorized Wayne Static & Tera Wray Documentary to Be Self-Funded by Filmmaker Matt Zane Los Angeles, CA — Filmmaker Matt Zane has announced that his unauthorized documentary focusing on late STATIC-X frontman Wayne Static and his wife Tera Wray will move forward as a self-funded project, following the failure of its recent crowdfunding campaign. The campaign faced immediate challenges after the estates of both Wayne Static and Tera Wray publicly objected to the project less than 24 hours before its launch. The following day, Zane was issued a cease-and-desist notice from both estates, prompting significant backlash from fans and contributing to the campaign falling short of its funding goals. Despite the setback, Zane says he remains committed to completing the documentary and will personally finance the project. “I’m sure the estates and everyone over in the current STATIC-X camp thought that if they could prevent my funding, that would be the end of it,” said Zane. “I’m here to tell you I’ll move forward regardless and will self-fund this project to ensure that it’s made.” A segment of the fan community previously accused Zane of pursuing the documentary as a “cash grab.” However, with the project now self-funded, all financial risk rests solely with the filmmaker, and the likelihood of profit is minimal. Zane maintains that financial gain has never been his motivation. “Wayne and Tera asked me to make this. They were my friends,” Zane explained. “I couldn’t get it done while they were here, but I can do it now. They wanted their truth and their story out there, and they trusted me with all of their video projects. I won't let them down.” Zane has also expressed a continued desire to engage in dialogue with the families of Wayne Static and Tera Wray regarding the film’s intent. “I sincerely hope their families watch it,” he said. “I truly believe they will come to understand that my intention was always to honor Wayne and Tera’s wishes.” Weekly updates on the progress of the documentary will be shared via Matt Zane’s Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/lordzane/ Less

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE WitcheR Unveil Fourth Full-Length Album “Öröklét” and Release New Ritualistic Music Video Hungarian atmospheric black metal visionaries WitcheR have returned with their fourth full-length album, Öröklét (“Eternity”), now fully available on CD, cassette, and vinyl via Filosofem Records and Beveria Productions. Building on the darkly immersive legacy of Lélekharang, Öröklét draws listeners into a vast, mystical soundscape where icy black metal grandeur meets the solemn elegance of classical composition. The album features four original compositions alongside a reimagined interpretation of Franz Schubert’s Piano Trio No. 2 – Andante con moto, seamlessly merging atmospheric black metal with centuries-old musical tradition. Formed in 2010, Gere Karola (synths, vocals) and Neubauer Roland (guitars, drums, vocals) have steadily refined WitcheR’s ritualistic approach, drawing inspiration from Summoning, early Dimmu Borgir, and Wolves in the Throne Room. Their sound balances expansive synth layers, haunting melodies, and lyrical themes rooted in witchcraft, Hungarian folklore, and resistance to the modern world. Previous releases include Csendes domb (2015) and A gyertyák csonkig égnek (2019). “This record is not merely music. It is a gateway. A moment of realization, when one understands that everything fades… and yet, everything remains eternal.”— WitcheR Recorded at Vrag’s Forest Studio between 2023 and 2025, Öröklét was entirely engineered, mixed, and mastered by the band. Artwork was created by Grafit & Hamu Artworks, visually echoing the album’s themes of time, ritual, and transcendence. In addition to the album’s full release, WitcheR have unveiled a new music video for the title track “Öröklét.” The video stands as a unique visual document, created over the course of an entire year and inspired by ancient pagan rituals tied to solstices, witch traditions, and the natural cycle of the seasons. “We didn’t just want to make a video clip, we wanted to experience the entire year in the spirit of the song.”— WitcheR The year-long creative process allows the video to convey the passage of time itself, reinforcing the song’s central themes of cyclicality, renewal, and the permanence left behind by all things that pass. “This song and this video are about time. About how everything returns, and nothing passes without leaving a trace.” Album:https://witcherband.bandcamp.com/album/r-kl-t Music Video – “Öröklét”:[jrEmbed module="jrYouTube" youtube_id="DClg3LYcWD4"] For fans of atmospheric and symphonic black metal, Öröklét stands as a defining statement in WitcheR’s catalog, bridging the ephemeral and the eternal with unwavering conviction.
