Few Bands in the history of Rock N’ Roll have ever incited the love, the hate, the raw emotional effect this Band has had on the world. From the very beginning, in the small venues of Los Angeles California, and later to the numerous countries worldwide that banned these Winged Assassins from performing live, the Band’s unique style of Shock and Rock caused Religious organizations, Local City Councils, Parliaments, and the Washington D.C. Senate to hold hearings in an effort to bar this group from selling records and trashing stages everywhere they played. The band’s founding member, frontman Blackie Lawless, has led the group as its lead vocalist and primary songwriter since its beginning. His unique brand of visual, social and political comment took the group to worldwide heights and sold millions of records alongside a legacy of sold out shows across the globe for 4 decades. About KK’s Priest You can’t keep a heavy metal legend down... Although it’s been over a dozen years since guitarist and songwriter K.K. Downing departed Judas Priest, the iconic band he co-founded and played with for 40 years, he was never really going to retire. It was only a matter of time before he reclaimed the spotlight. As his new album title proclaims, The Sinner Rides Again. K.K. Downing has had metal coursing through his veins from the beginning, starting in the Midlands region of England where Judas Priest was born. He compellingly chronicled his life odyssey in his 2018 autobiography, and his recent induction into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame further secures his legacy as a pioneering musician, songwriter and guitarist. As a founding member of the classic Judas Priest line-up, Downing helped lay the foundation for the heavy metal genre as a whole. His distinct style of playing is easily identifiable, he was part of a six-string duo that complemented and contrasted each other, and they would progress to new levels of excitement. He has taken that ethos and applied it to KK’s Priest with impassioned results. Fans already excited by KK's return, will also be elated that KK’s Priest are gearing up for another round of touring in the US and Canada in the fall of 2026 with fellow metal legends W.A.S.P. For Downing, KK’s Priest is not just a statement of intent. It is a statement of being. His lifelong heavy metal saga continues. https://www.waspnation.com https://www.facebook.com/W.A.S.P.Nation https://www.facebook.com/groups/waspnationofficialgroup/ https://twitter.com/waspofficial https://instagram.com/waspnationofficial https://youtube.com/@WASPNationOfficial https://www.tiktok.com/@waspnationofficial https://www.threads.net/@waspnationofficial https://www.bandsintown.com/a/7553

Zeal & Ardor release "Devil Is Fine x Carpenter Brut" via MVKA, a defining moment in the band's history reimagined with brutal precision as Carpenter Brut unleashes his trademark nightmare fuel on their most iconic anthem. It's a collision of two of extreme music's most fearless minds, pushing the song into territory it has never touched before. "Devil Is Fine" is the title track of Zeal & Ardor's breakthrough 2016 record, the release that first fused black metal aggression with the rhythms and history of African American spirituals and work songs, introducing Manuel Gagneux's project to a global audience. Carpenter Brut, the French producer whose synth driven, horror soaked sound has become a genre unto itself, has now taken the track apart and rebuilt it. Manuel Gagneux of Zeal & Ardor says, “Imagine if one of the most capable electronic musicians out there remixed a song of ours. Imagine if that would result in a track that might eclipse the original. Imagine if you could listen to such a thing right now. We give you Devil Is Fine x Carpenter Brut."  Carpenter Brut adds, “Zeal & Ardor have such a distinctive sound so it was a real pleasure to take ‘Devil Is Fine’ into my own world while keeping the spirit of the original.“
