Converge

Converge’s prolific 2026 continues. After releasing not one but two aural juggernauts this year — February’s Love is Not Enough (their first proper album in nine years) and this month’s Hum of Hurt — and mounting a U.S. tour with Poison the Well, the metalcore veterans have now announced the second edition of their heavy music fest, Saddest Day. The 2026 edition will once again take place at the Roadrunner in Boston, Massachusetts, and rolls out as a two-day event from December 12th-13th. The band are promising no barricade and no overlapping sets. Converge play both nights, with a special set celebrating Jane Doe’s 25th anniversary occurring on the Sunday. Saturday’s lineup also includes Cave In, Emma Ruth Rundle, Pig Pen (the hardcore band fronted by celebrity chef and The Bear actor/producer Matty Matheson), Deaf Club, Final Gasp, and special guests to be announced. Sunday’s lineup also has Chat Pile, Baroness, Agriculture, Reversal of Man, Habak, and Fuming Mouth.

Comparing Converge's 2026 releases.

In a new interview with the Nothing Shocking Podcast, former MISFITS singer Michale Graves spoke about his transition from "punk rock icon to that of a Christian-based rock artist". He said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): "Yeah, some people are, like, 'What the hell, man?' Yes, in 2016, I real...

(Andy Synn kicks off another week here at NCS with a brutish blast of Hardcore/Death/Grind) Last week was a big week for Hardcore/Metalcore (the good kind, obviously) with the release of new albums from both Converge and 100 Demons (as well as a whole host of other, equally abrasive acts from across the ‘core spectrum). And [...]

Fuming Mouth are ready to return with their third LP The Ringing Bell, due out everywhere July 17th. Featuring 11 new tracks, it was recorded by Kurt Ballou at God City Studio in Salem, Massachusetts. Joining them on drums is Jay Weinberg (ex-Slipknot, ex-Suicidal Tendencies).

Uğultu, Acı ve Zamanın Ağırlığı: Dünya sizi duyuyor mu?Bir yılda iki albüm. Bu cümleyi yazmak bile garip hissettiriyor. Çünkü bu, sadece üretkenlik meselesi değil; varoluşsal bir zorunluluk meselesi. Revolver dergisinin yakın zamanda Jacob Bannon ve Kurt Ballou ile yaptığı röportajda Bannon bunu en yalın hâliyle söylüyor: "Yarın ölebilirim. O zaman sanatımızı ve müziğimizi bugün çıkaralım." Bu cümle bir röportaj mottosundan ibaret değil. Hum of Hurt'ün tüm dokusuna işlemiş bir his. Ve bu his tes

Converge has released their second album of 2026, 'Hum of Hurt,' out today via Deathwish/Epitaph Records, also sharing a new song called "Slip The Noose."

Here at Revolver, we re always on the hunt for new songs to bang our heads to — indeed, it s a big part of our jobs. With that in mind, here are the tracks released this week in metalcore, nu-rock, industrial and more that have been on heavy rotation at Revolver HQ. For your listening pleasure, we ve also compiled the songs in an ever-evolving Spotify playlist. A Place to Kill Jet Engine On the one hand, an industrial titan like Richard Patrick — he of Filter, Nine Inch Nails and more — needs no introduction. That said, his first single with new project A Place to Kill — co-plotted with rock photographer and There Is No Us frontman Jim Louvau — makes for a hell of a hello. The group’s “Jet Engine” is lean but ruthlessly efficient, a steady machine clank and Patrick’s wobble-heavy keyboard tones pushing air around Louvau’s steely-eyed whispers and incensed screams. Baring teeth and booming synth-bass aggression, it’s sure to kill on the dance floor. Avatar Crying Fire Fire and water have been elemental to the latest round of Avatar tracks, from the seafaring “Captain Goat” to the burnt timber that surrounded the band in the video for Don’t Go in the Forest’s title track. New standalone single “Crying Fire” — which was recorded during those same album sessions — is a force of nature that manages to sit between those poles. Driven by tuneful Eighties-style pop-metal arpeggiation, the song has vocalist Johannes Eckerström fever-dream crooning of a forest nap where branches cover his “secret, naked skin.” At first, he’s met with a refreshing morning mist. By song’s end, everything’s covered in a downpour of the sun’s “crying fire.” A passionate trad-metal anthem from the Swedish vets. Converge I Won t Let You Go Hum of Hurt, Converge’s second album of the year, is arguably a more brooding and stretched-out experience than the panicked, tempo-pushing hardcore assaults of Love Is Not Enough. And yet, it still showcases frantic pieces like mid-album wrecker “I Won’t Let You Go,” a damned chaotic yet oddly danceable entry in Converge’s canon. The beats initially shift and twist like a metallic samba before Ben Koller goes beast mode on a Red Bull-charged blitz. Guitars and bass grind through dissonant staccato dynamism. Jacob Bannon howls bleakly of “living in fear of vulnerability,” yet strives for connection. Like many Converge songs before it, it’s delivered with an urgency that ll to grab you at your core. Evanescence Beautiful Lie “I am the power.” Evanescence’s Sanctuary album starts off strong with an ominously-toned, self-empowerment anthem that finds Amy Lee’s lyrical protagonist reclaiming agency (“I don’t belong to you”) and moving on from a time-and-patience-testing emotional battleground (“Baby, this is your war, but it’s killing the both of us”). Lee’s vibrato ebbs and flow from measured melodizing to something monolithic, and comes supported by crow-black nu-hooks, slap-crazed bass playing and more. Fuming Mouth A Blaze of Nihilism A welcomed return with a wild twist, “A Blaze of Nihilism” is the first song from Fuming Mouth to feature their latest drummer, former Slipknot and Suicidal Tendencies skinsman Jay Weinberg. He brings a brutal wallop to the track, but the rest of the New England heavymakes go for broke, too. Together, they torch the intro with earth-scorching intensity before locking into grave-sodden death grooves and an uncouth, out-of-pocket solo from vocalist-guitarist Mark Whelan. It only gets weirder when they close things out with a creeped-out nursery rhyme. Fuming Mouth’s latest heater is meant to be listened to at top volume. The ringing in your ears will be worth it. Mastodon Your Ghost Again The latest Mastodon single may well be their heaviest yet, because it’s the first piece of new music to be released by the iconic metal band since founding guitarist Brent Hinds’ tragic 2025 death. The surviving members grieve in-song through lyrics about how the “world went black,” as well as lines that vocalist-drummer Brann Dailor has suggested are somewhat about sensing their fallen brother-in-arms’ presence in the recording studio with them. Sonically, Mastodon s reflective path forward begins with sludge-fisted riffery that harkens back to the Remission days, before delivering a wistful, whimsical strain of heavy prog. In all, it s a perfectly bittersweet way to open the band s next chapter.

It's a heavy week for new releases, as we hear the latest from Converge (again!), Diabolic Oath, Rotten Tomb and more!

Ring the bell and sound the alarm: Fuming Mouth are back with a monstrous single, which marks the band’s first piece of music with new drummer Jay Weinberg. “A Blaze of Nihilism” appears on the New England outfit’s forthcoming The Ringing Bell album, and its clarion call comprises roiling death-metal grooves, savage feedback, insidious shred and fates-fortified growls (“My strength builds and spreads like fire”). The Ringing Bell is described in a press release as “an album forged through perseverance, transformation, and an unwavering commitment to moving forward.” The sessions at Converge member Kurt Ballou’s GodCity Studio in Salem, Massachusetts found vocalist-guitarist Mark Whelan, guitarist Pat Merson and bassist Chris Berg working alongside former Slipknot and Suicidal Tendencies drummer Weinberg, the results reportedly “pushing their trademark fusion of death metal and hardcore to new extremes, delivering the most powerful and fully realized release of their career.” The 11-song outing follows Fuming Mouth’s Last Day of the Sun album from 2023, and marks the group’s return to Triple B Records, following a stint on Nuclear Blast. It releases in full on July 17th, and pre-orders for the set can be found here. You’ll find the cover art and tracklisting below, along with Fuming Mouth’s upcoming show schedule with Six Feet Under, Revocation and more. In related news, Weinberg has also been working on music under his own name, having semi-recently delivered the Sandstone single with Deafheaven vocalist George Clarke, and Drone Operator with NOWHERE2RUN. Both songs have been pressed onto an exclusive 12 single on Green Purple Starburst vinyl. You can pre-order yours now in Revolver’s shop.
