Bruce Dickinson stated in 2018, 'Rock and roll music does not belong in a mausoleum in Cleveland.' He further criticized the Hall, saying, 'It's run by a bunch of sanctimonious bloody Americans who wouldn't know rock 'n' roll if it hit them in the face.'

Dwarves have announced their 17th studio album, titled J ENKEM, set to arrive June 6th via Greedy Records. In support of the upcoming record, the veteran punk band will embark on US tours in the spring and fall.

Hart sounds right at home with the band, showcasing a great live charisma in her performance and a solid, intense vocal performance. Fans curious how she would fit with the band in a live context will certainly have any anxieties allayed.

"What if 'The Hum' is the culmination of all the pain in the world, creating an audible signal across the universe?" Converge vocalist Jacob Bannon reflects on the inspiration behind the album.

It's no secret that we're passionate about Foundations of Burden. Revisiting the record last year was so invigorating for us, and presenting it live in its entirety on stage has been a blast. We hold it as a special landmark in our history. We are so pleased to announce more of these performances in 2026, including a reprise of appearances alongside the funereal chaos apparitions in Knoll who joined us last December.

We like the idea of art as a tool for changing your perspective, being able to rotate ideas and see/hear/feel them from a different vantage point. Horse Lords' artistic philosophy centers on using their music to shift listener perspectives and explore ideas from multiple angles, reflecting their experimental approach to composition and performance.

Terror remain a veteran hardcore band that is deeply involved with the current hardcore scene, and every band opening this tour is a band that's shaping the future of hardcore as we speak: LIHC ass-kickers Pain of Truth, Baltimore's charismatic End It, and LA youth crew revivalists Start Today.

I'm extremely excited to get back out on the road supporting our newest album This Consequence! We are hitting major cities and bringing along with us an absolutely killer lineup with the legendary Robb Flynn and Machine Head, thrash masters Iron Reagan, and rounded out by the mighty Havok.

"By the time this tour begins, it will have been just under three years since our last US headliner, and we are absolutely shooting for the moon to celebrate our return," Motionless in White stated in a press release. "We could not be more excited to visit our American fans who have been incredibly patient with us, and can't wait to give them the first performances of new material from our upcoming album. See you this summer!"

The North American run follows Gaga's previous "Mayhem Ball" outing, which ran in the US and Canada in the summer and fall of 2025 and continued through Europe, Asia, and Australia. The trek, which we deemed as one of the most anticipated tours of 2026, sees Gaga bringing the dark world of her 2025 LP to life with cinematic movements, dazzling costumes and set pieces, and a gothic aesthetic centered around duality.
