FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Cathode U.L.T Unleashes “Savagery and Salvation” January 24th, 2026 Midwest sludge unit Cathode U.L.T is about to drop their most punishing and ambitious work yet with “Savagery and Salvation”, set for release January 24th, 2026. Steeped in the grime and weight of true sludge while pulling influence from doom, punk, and thrash, the trio continues to carve out their sound for fans of Eye Hate God, Crowbar, and High on Fire. Formed in August 2023, Cathode U.L.T wasted zero time making noise. Their debut EP “Coal Horse” (February 2024) introduced a harsh, rust-belt sonic identity. By Halloween of the same year, the band followed up with “Orphan Source”, which quickly won favor among early supporters and helped solidify the group within the Midwest underground. Now barely two years into their existence, the band returns with their third release and most expansive effort to date. “Savagery and Salvation” pushes their songwriting further into dense atmosphere and crushing momentum, balancing raw aggression with bleak melody and dynamic tension. “Savagery and Salvation is the 3rd release from Cathode U.L.T in less than 2 years. And is the most expansive records from them to date.” Cathode U.L.T is:• Sol. E. Williams – Guitar, Vocals• Billy Price – Bass• Stephen Eifler – Drums Produced by Sol. E. Williams and co-produced, engineered, mixed, and mastered by Josh Ross for Ross Audio Engineering, the record captures a band moving fast and evolving even faster, refusing to wait for permission from any scene, label, or gatekeeper. With no management, no label, and a relentless Midwestern work ethic, Cathode U.L.T keeps their hands dirty and their output heavy. “Savagery and Salvation” marks a defining moment for a band that operates on grit and forward motion.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MY DARK FATE IGNITES NEW ERA WITH TWIN SINGLES “WHITEOUT” AND “FRIGHTENED TO THE CORE” — MORE NEW MUSIC COMING IN 2026 Stream/download: https://mydarkfate.bandcamp.com/ Austria’s rising groove-metal outfit My Dark Fate has kicked off a pivotal new chapter with back-to-back singles showcasing the band’s revamped lineup and sharpened sound. The winter 2025 single “Whiteout” dropped November 14, 2025, with a follow-up release “Frightened to the Core” landing January 2, 2026 to mark the new year. Additional singles are slated for release throughout 2026, with music videos planned for Q2. Blending the weight of modern groove metal with melodic death-metal roots, My Dark Fate finds its sweet spot in contrast. Seven-string riffs grind beneath a dual-vocal attack where guitarist Stefan delivers guttural aggression while bassist Marina answers with clean, soaring hooks. The rhythm section, anchored by drummer Christian, keeps everything locked tight while guitarist Andreas drives the songwriting with decades of experience in the Austrian metal scene. Fans of Lacuna Coil, Jinjer, In Flames, Amaranthe and newer Arch Enemy will feel right at home. THE SINGLES “Whiteout” — Released November 14, 2025 To usher in the winter season, My Dark Fate unveiled “Whiteout,” a dark, cinematic metal ballad steeped in cold atmosphere and emotional tension. Written by Andreas Maierhofer and Herbert Sopracolle, the piece lived dormant for years until Marina added lyrics and melody inspired by her father’s extreme survival treks across Alaska’s 1,000-mile Iditarod Trail, where temperatures and terrain push human endurance to the breaking point. The result is an icy, slow-burning anthem meant to seep into the bones. “Frightened to the Core” — Released January 2, 2026 The band opened 2026 on a high note with “Frightened to the Core,” a punchier, upbeat blend of groove metal and melodic death metal. Composed by Andreas, with lyrics penned by Stefan in his debut lyrical contribution, the track digs into modern fear-mongering and the psychological pressure cooker of contemporary society. Stefan’s growls trade blows with Marina’s harmonies, creating a kinetic call-and-response that keeps the track moving. THE BAND Lineup:Vocals and Bass – MarinaGrowls and Guitar – StefanDrums – ChristianGuitar – Andreas Originally founded in 2019 by guitarist and songwriter Andreas Maierhofer (noted for his work in melodic death metal band Lost Dreams), My Dark Fate released its debut album No Prophecy in December 2022. Following lineup changes and a full reboot in 2025, the band re-emerged stronger and heavier, opening what they consider the true beginning of the project. A NEW CHAPTER The dual release of “Whiteout” and “Frightened to the Core” marks the first wave of new material under the rebooted lineup, with more singles planned throughout 2026 and no sign of slowing down. The band is currently independent and self-producing, refusing to compromise creative control. All recording, production, mixing and mastering is handled in-house by Andreas Maierhofer, with management also overseen internally. ABOUT MY DARK FATE My Dark Fate is an independent Austrian metal band forging a modern hybrid of groove metal and melodic death-metal atmosphere. With dual vocals, crushing riff work and emotionally charged storytelling, the group aims to push heaviness into new thematic and cinematic territory. Genre: Groove Metal / Melodic Death MetalFFO: Lacuna Coil, Jinjer, In Flames, Amaranthe, Arch Enemy Videos Coming: Q2 2026Label: IndependentManagement: Andreas Maierhofer Connect with the band:  https://linktr.ee/mydarkfate Contact: contact@mydarkfate.com Less

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ARANDA DROPS NEW SINGLE “YOU DON’T WANNA KNOW” — OUT NOW https://hypeddit.com/aranda/youdontwannaknow Oklahoma City hard rock veterans Aranda return with “You Don’t Wanna Know”, a brooding and hook-loaded new single released November 28, 2025 via Astonish Entertainment LLC. Built on towering vocals, emotional punch, and melodic grit, the track lands firmly in the lane for fans of Nothing More, Shinedown, Bad Omens, Foo Fighters, and Pop Evil. After more than two decades of touring, charting, surviving label shakeups, and turning setbacks into fuel, the Aranda brothers are still pushing forward instead of coasting on nostalgia. “You Don’t Wanna Know” makes that point loud and clear. The song digs into self-doubt, broken trust, and the fear that love won’t survive your own worst traits. “‘You Don’t Wanna Know’ is a song about being broken to the point that you don't trust anyone to love you past your mistakes in life, but when someone actually does stay, you ask the question of why would you stay after everything I am and have done?” says Dameon Aranda. The single follows the band’s 2025 collaboration “Punch Out” with A.D.A.M. Music Project, which climbed to #33 on Active Rock radio, extending Aranda’s run of seven Top 40 active rock singles that kicked off back in 2008 with their breakthrough debut. That record delivered “Still in the Dark” and “Whyyawannabringmedown,” the latter famously re-cut by Kelly Clarkson for her platinum album All I Ever Wanted and used as the theme for WWE’s The Bash. Signing to Wind-up Records, the band hit a commercial high point with Stop the World (2012), landing three Top 40 singles—“Undone,” “Satisfied,” and “One More Lie”—plus a RadioContraband Indie Artist of the Year nomination. They followed with Not the Same (2015) which debuted at #12 on Billboard’s Heatseekers and earned two more charting singles. Aranda kept their foot on the gas independently with Recollections of a Painted Year (2022) and their 2025 touring cycle. Road Tested and Battle Proven True to form, Aranda continues to build their career the old-fashioned way: on the road. The band has shared the stage with Buckcherry, Sevendust, Saving Abel, Theory of a Deadman, Daughtry, 3 Doors Down, Halestorm, Shinedown, Staind, Papa Roach, Stone Temple Pilots, and more while hitting festivals like Rocklahoma (2010) and Rock on the Range (2016). To close out 2025 rolling into 2026, Aranda joins The Founder and A.D.A.M.

Metal survived—and now everyone gets to see how we did it.” This October, Tennessee Metal Devastation Music Fest invites fans to celebrate its 5th year with crushing riffs, mouth watering BBQ, and the heaviest weekend of 2026.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Metal Hammer & Louder Name Distant’s “Nothing Left To Hate” One of the Best New Metal Songs You Need to Hear Dutch/Slovakian deathcore bruisers Distant are turning heads with their ferocious new single, Nothing Left To Hate, out now via Century Media Records. The track has already earned major acclaim, landing on Metal Hammer and Louder’s lists of the best new metal songs right now—a massive nod to the band’s raw, relentless sound. "2025 was a seriously big year for deathcore, and 2026 already looks like it'll keep the momentum up. Distant kick things off with the utterly feral Nothing Left To Hate, a track that walks away from modern deathcore's high-end production to get back to the genre's gritty, gruesome roots, pig squeals and all," says Metal Hammer. The single marks a return to deathcore’s unpolished, brutal essence, packed with crushing riffs, relentless drumming, and guttural vocals that leave no room for compromise. Fans looking for intensity, aggression, and pure chaos will find it all here. Distant will also be hitting the road in the UK and EU opening for Sylosis, bringing their feral live energy directly to audiences across the continent. Stream “Nothing Left To Hate” now via Century Media Records and experience the raw power of Distant. Check it out here: https://www.loudersound.com/best-new-metal-songs-alter-bridge-hanabie-of-the-lost The band comments:“‘Nothing Left To Hate’ is DISTANT at full destructive force. Thicker riffs, deeper grooves, and a raw dive into self-destruction and chaos. This track is built for circle pits, rage workouts, and letting the anger out.” The release lands just days before DISTANT hit the road with Sylosis for a massive European tour beginning January 16, putting the band in front of thousands of new fans across the continent. The momentum follows an already relentless run, including the Evisceratour across the USA and Canada with Ingested and Ov Sulfur, plus their own Dutch Xmas Special supporting the local scene. DISTANT have become one of the defining forces in modern European deathcore. Blending brutal death metal, slam, noise, and beatdown with a hyper-dissonant atmosphere of impending doom, the band has evolved far beyond their early metalcore roots formed among friends in Rotterdam and Bratislava. What remains is pure sonic annihilation, refined and weaponized.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE BRAVEWORDS FEATURES BABYLON AD’S NEW VIDEO “POWER OF MUSIC” Metal Devastation PR is proud to announce that Bravewords has spotlighted the latest music video from veteran hard rock outfit Babylon AD. The feature highlights the band’s new single “Power Of Music,” taken from their sixth studio album When The World Stops, released September 3, 2025 through Kivel Records and Apocalypse Records. Written by vocalist and songwriter Derek Davis, “Power Of Music” pays tribute to the artists and genres that shaped him coming up, from Motown and early blues pioneers to the classic and arena rock bands that defined his generation. Musically, the track hits with a melodic high-energy drive while staying true to Babylon AD’s established hard rock grit. The accompanying video intercuts live shots of the band with archival performance footage from influential artists across decades, reinforcing the single’s theme and title. Formed in 1987 in the San Francisco Bay Area, Babylon AD originally operated under the name The Persuaders before signing to Arista Records under legendary music executive Clive Davis. Their gold-certified self-titled debut (1990) produced MTV staples “Bang Go The Bells” and “The Kid Goes Wild,” the latter appearing in promotions for RoboCop 2. Following the release of their 2024 album Rome Wasn’t Built In A Day, Babylon AD returned to steady touring across the US, UK, and Greece, pushing new momentum for the long-running Bay Area outfit and reaffirming their place among hard rock’s most road-tested survivors. The Bravewords feature marks another strong media response for the band as they continue supporting When The World Stops.
