35 Jahre Bandgeschichte – und dieses Album ist ihr brutalstes Statement.

Love Is Not Enough ist kein Titel. Es ist eine Warnung.

Warum Converge 2026 beweisen: Wut klingt am besten, wenn sie ehrlich ist.

Hört ihr schon die ersten Tracks? Welches Lied trifft euch am härtesten?

Sleep Theory Share “Words Are Worthless” Video

Breakout four-piece Sleep Theory — vocalist Cullen Moore, guitarist Daniel Pruitt, bassist Paolo Vergara, and drummer Ben Pruitt — had a meteoric 2025.

They released their debut album, Afterglow, produced by David Cowell and mixed by Zakk Cervini (Bring Me The Horizon, Bad Omens, Architects), last spring. The album, described by Revolver as an “exciting mix of metalcore, pop and R&B,” is their first full-length for Epitaph Records and has accumulated over 515 million global streams to date. The band, lauded as “one of the most compelling new acts in heavy music” by Kerrang!, then embarked on its first-ever headline tour in the summer, most dates of which were sold out, in addition to packing crowds at every festival stage they performed on. They also appeared on the covers of Rock Sound, Kerrang!, Revolver, and Outburn, and continued to turn heads.

Watch the video for “Words Are Worthless” from Afterglow.

The song is a violin-enhanced power ballad like only Sleep Theory could craft. The video, which features the band in performance mode, boasts a goth noir vibe. Follow along and watch the video here.

Sleep Theory are touring through the summer and beyond. All upcoming dates are below, including a mostly sold-out run of Europe, with some venues being upgraded to accommodate demand. The band has also booked radio shows with Three Days Grace and I Prevail, and a slew of American and European festival appearances.

Split Chain – Motionblur

(Nu Metal, Post-Hardcore, Shoegaze / Epitaph Records)

by Der Riedinger

Und dann nochmal so ein ’90er-Ding: selbst auf Vinyl packen #SplitChain ’nen Hiddentrack mit drauf. Zum Abschluß gibt’s eins à la Comeback Kid auf die Kauleiste. Geil! In dieser Form traue ich den Senkrechtstartern durchaus zu, eine Art Nu Metal-Revival anzuleiern.

*ad Went to see Parkway Drive at the Ziggo Dome and it was such a good show 🤘🔥
Picked up this long sleeve (size M ‘cause I like it a bit oversized) and I’m obsessed. I had to make a little outfit video 🖤

Who else went to Parkway Drive? Where did you see them, or are you going to one of the next shows? 👀
