Papa Roach last week gave fans a taste of their forthcoming ninth album with a video for their new single ‘Help’ which is today's Vid Of The Day. The band, featuring Jacoby Shaddix (vocals), Jerry Horton (guitars), Tobin Esperance (bass) and Tony Palermo (drums), expect to release their new album in May. 'Help' was produced by Nicholas “Ras” Furlong and Colin Brittian, who grew up listening to Papa Roach and inspired the band to revisit some of their early influences. The band teased fans late last year with the viral release of 'Crooked Teeth' exciting fans all over the world who are expecting an album as dynamic as their classics 'Infest' and 'Getting Away with Murder'. Papa Roach will be heading out on a Canadian tour with Sum 41 during April, followed by a handful of US festival dates.

Well done to Shooter frontman Dom O'Reilly who completed the Craven Cottage 10k yesterday and not only deservedly got the pictured medal but also raised his target of £500 for Cancer Research UK. After the race Dom said "I finished it despite taking a wrong turn following a runner who wasn’t in the race - so had to back track and do another 450m - but still did just under 44 minutes!" And there's still time to sponsor Dom if you go here! Thanks once again for your support.

A new Sammy Hagar collection 'When The Party Started' - which has been out in the US since late November - is now getting an official UK release on Friday 10th March. The new compilation includes two unreleased songs ‘No Worries’ and ‘Never Said Goodbye’ . Sammy said "With this collection, I wanted to revisit what I feel are the best songs I wrote during the second wave. I’d left Van Halen and formed the Wabos as an alternative to the superstar, high-pressure, commercial machine that I’d been living in since I joined Montrose in 1972. These albums, ‘Red Voodoo’ (1999), ‘Ten 13’ (2000) and ‘Livin’ It Up’ (2006), represent the first time I was free from the pressures of putting out a major label release in 25 years. Musically, I needed to shake it up and fall in love with making music again."

Thomas Wynn and The Believers - the six-piece ensemble from Orlando, Florida, are breaking beyond the Southern Rock scene with the release of their new album, 'Wade Waist Deep’, out this May via Mascot Label Group. Named the #1 Rock Band and #1 Country/Folk Band in the city for seven consecutive years by the Orlando Weekly, the band's combination of Rock and Southern Soul, supported by Thomas’ self-styled “blood harmonies” with his sister Olivia are hauntingly beautiful and forge an uplifting “Soul Rock", mixing the best of Classic Rock, R&B and Gospel. As a first taste from the album, they delve into hypnotic Blues on 'Man Out of Time' - which is today's Vid Of The Day.

The band also recently unveiled the first video to one of these live tracks 'Her Alone' - today's Vid Of The Day - featuring Anneke van Giersbergen, which is the last song on the bonus CD.

Hellbound Hearts have released a video (today's Vid Of The Day) for their new song 'The Light We Cannot See', taken from their forthcoming debut album 'Film Noir', which is due to be released on Friday 7th April. Online zine ‘One Metal’ describes Hellbound Hearts as, “"the kind of music that should be played with high octane and fervent amounts of passion." Given the eager anticipation of '‘Film Noir’', the Yorkshire Alternative Rock trio have solidified the promise shown on previous EP's in a fashion that simply shouldn’t be ignored if you’'re a Rock fan. Produced by Matt Ellis at Axis Studios (Black Spiders, Terrorvision), ‘'Film Noir’' is a commanding collection of songs that range from feel-good melodies to dark, sinister hooks, whilst all the time packing in stand out singalong choruses and heavy grooves.

"But holding centre stage, Manimal are all about Nyman. He really works the crowd well with a scary leering skull like presence that has hints of Gollum, The Walking Dead and every Brooklyn punk with a bad attitude. He’s animated, fist pumping, exhorting the crowd who were having a ball. All of which are eclipsed by his voice. Halford had the pipes and so does Nyman. The set has the same chugging tempo with everything from throbbing djent to the almost funky bass opening of 'Human Nature'. Although that doesn’t last long before the enfilade of machine gun fire opens up again. It’s a war in here."
