Following a slew of prestigious tours opening for genre greats like The Browning, Born of Osiris, Lacuna Coil, and more, AXTY have been fast rising in the modern metalcore scene, proving their command of wicked breakdowns and inescapable melody.
Today, they have unleashed the hook laden banger of a single "nothing but pain." Cut from their forthcoming album, and Na**lm Records debut, The Pain Made Me Who I Am, out August 21, AXTY hit listeners with a swelling flurry of infectious hooks juxtaposed against earth shattering grooves harkening to the days of nu with a modern deathcore menace.

Frontman Felipe Hervoso on "nothing but pain":
"'nothing but pain' is a raw, zero-filtering look at what it means to completely lose hope and struggle for survival. It leans hard into the darkest aspects of mental anguish, capturing the suffocating feeling of being dragged under by your own thoughts. It is a straightforward, uncompromising track built for anyone who appreciates music with real, messy, and authentic human emotion."

ORIGINAL IRON MAIDEN SINGER PAUL DI’ANNO’S BATTLEZONE RETURNS TO THE FRONTLINES WITH THE 40TH ANNIVERSARY OF FIGHTING BACK (1986)

FULLY REMASTERED AND REPACKAGED ON 180G VINYL IN TWO LIMITED EDITION COLOR VARIATIONS FROM DEKO ENTERTAINMENT


In 1986, legendary vocalist Paul Di’Anno who was the unmistakable original voice behind Iron Maiden’s formative years launched a bold new chapter with the release of Fighting Back, the explosive debut album from Battlezone. Following his departure from Iron Maiden, Di’Anno refused to look backward. Instead, he forged ahead, assembling Battlezone to deliver a fresh assault of raw British heavy metal power. Originally released through Raw Power Records in the UK, Fighting Back captured Di’Anno’s unmistakable grit and intensity while showcasing a revitalized creative fire that reaffirmed his status as one of metal’s most commanding frontmen.

Featuring standout tracks including “Welcome to the Battlezone,” “Warchild,” “Running Blind,” and the title anthem “(Forever) Fighting Back,” the album fused aggressive riffs, streetwise energy, and melodic power into a statement of resilience and reinvention. Recorded in East London and produced by Ian Richardson alongside the band, the record introduced a formidable lineup featuring guitarists John Hurley and John Wiggins, bassist Pete West, and drummer Bob Falck.

Four decades later, Fighting Back remains an essential document of 1980s heavy metal and to celebrate this 40th Anniversary Deko Entertainment has remastered and repackaged this landmark release from the former Iron Maiden frontman. It will be available in August on 180G vinyl in two Limited Edition colors, CD, and contains the bonus track “Rising Star”.

For fans of classic heavy metal, collectors of NWOBHM history, and those who continue to celebrate the enduring legacy of Paul Di’Anno, Fighting Back stands as a powerful reminder of an artist who never stopped fighting.

GRAMMY-NOMINATED HARDCORE ICONS HATEBREED JOIN FORCES WITH BLKIIBLK RECORDS

NEW ALBUM (PRODUCED BY ZUESS) OUT LATER THIS YEAR

SUMMER SLAUGHTER TOUR 2026 KICKS OFF IN JULY

Grammy-nominated, Connecticut hardcore icons HATEBREED, who remain one of the most impactful and endurng bands of the modern era and who are known for their tectonic-plate shifting and lyrically poignant anthems, are thrilled to announce that they have joined forces with BLKIIBLK RECORDS. The label will release the band's forthcoming album, produced by long-time collaborator Zeuss (Rob Zombie, Accept, Shadows Fall). The much-awaited follow up to 2020's Weight of the False Self is due out this fall. More details will be released in due course, but fans can follow the band's socials for teases and updates about the record.

“BLKIIBLK put together a dream team to get behind the new Hatebreed record and we couldn’t be happier — new label, new horizons, crushing new songs," says singer Jamey Jasta. "We are beyond grateful and can't wait to unleash these tracks on the world!"

Drummer Matt Byrne weighs in, saying, "2026 is the year of Hatebreed. This juggernaut as we know it is picking up the pace rapidly and is taking no prisoners. As if 2025 wasn't enough of a truly busy and successful year, this summer sees multiple European festivals/headline tours for the band, two separate U.S. legs of the Summer Slaughter tour, and a powerhouse of a new record dropping this fall on an awesome new label BLKIIBLK!!! We can't wait to see everyone on the road!"

"One of my favorite things about making this record was working with our brother-in-arms, Zeuss, once again," continues Jasta. "His connection with Matt, Wayne, Frank, Carl, and me goes far beyond the producer's chair, I’ve known him since the Pushbutton Warfare and Jasta 14 days, he's been like a sixth member of this band for years. When you're chasing something timeless, memorable, and meaningful, having that level of trust and understanding makes all the difference. We would high five, scream, pace, and celebrate every time we elevated the song or hit on something killer. From 'I Will Be Heard' to 'Destroy Everything,' 'Looking Down The Barrel' to now, 'Decisions Become Destinies!' We got another one Zeussky!"

"BlLKIIBLK Records is proud to announce the signing of HATEBREED. Not only are they a name carved into the heavy music landscape, but they are as vital and relevant a force as ever. Perhaps even more so. We are excited to work with Jamey [Jasta], who continues to bring new energy to everything he touches. Jasta and HATEBREED aren't merely about perseverance — they're about bringing the sound of the extreme to a new level. We're honored to be working together," said Frontiers Records Global Head of A&R/BLKIIBLK Label Head Mike Gitter.

Hatebreed will spend the summer doing what they do best — touring and bringing venues across the U.S. to their knees. All upcoming dates are below.

With dozens of pit-stirring anthems across albums, the Grammy-nominated Hatebreed have built their reputation through decades of ruthless breakdowns and an Iron Man touring ethic, consistently selling out shows the world over. Over the course of its career, the band has gone from playing basements and backyards to being a featured, must-see attraction on countless festivals like Graspop, OzzFest, Warped, and Download, alongside massive high-profile tours.

Described by Forbes as "more relevant than ever in the metal and hardcore community," the quintet remains one of the most definitive live acts in music today and recently celebrated a milestone with their track "Looking Down The Barrel Of Today," which is nearing 130 million global streams, making it their single biggest career streaming track of the modern era. To date, Hatebreed have sold over 1.5 million albums in North America alone.

Hatebreed's most recent album, 2020's Weight of the False Self, was praised as a "return to their hardcore roots" by Brooklyn Vegan. The album was deemed "one of their most aggressive to date" by Consequence and "pummeling" by Revolver, while Psychology Today called it "a blazing combination of extreme metal and hardcore punk." Hatebreed remain one of the most vital bands in the hard rock scene.
