Posted by on August 2, 2019


New & Noteworthy is a weekly column in which we highlight some of the newest rock and metal releases coming out each week. This week features new music from Volbeat, Carnifex, and more! For last week’s releases you can check out the last New & Noteworthy, and for the latest sales numbers Metal by Numbers. Be sure to follow us on Spotify to get this month’s New & Noteworthy Playlist, updated every Friday with the newest metal releases.

In non-metal news, I was able to attend the final show of the tour for Jeff Lynne’s ELO. The show was a fantastic hour and a half of their classic hits with an awesome presentation. And as of the day this comes out, Clutch & Killswitch Engage tonight. Weird combination of music for the week, but I dig it.
