Possibly his best one yet.

ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons has announced a new solo album, Hardware. Set for a June 4 release via Concord Records, the album was recorded at Escape Studio in the California desert – near Palm Springs – and was produced by Gibbons along with Matt Sorum and Mike Fiorentino, with engineer Chad Shlosser. Hardware features Gibbons, guitarist Austin Hanks, and Sorum – a veteran of Guns N' Roses, Velvet Revolver, and the Cult – on drums. Larkin Poe meanwhile, guest on the song “Stackin’ Bones.” “We holed up in the desert for a few weeks in the heat of the summer and that in itself was pretty intense," Gibbons said of the album in a statement. "To let off steam we just ‘let it rock’ and that’s what Hardware is really all about. For the most part, it’s a raging rocker but always mindful of the desert’s implicit mystery.” Billy Gibbons – Hardware: 1. My Lucky Card 2. She’s On Fire 3. More-More-More 4. Shuffle, Step & Slide 5. Vagabond Man 6. Spanish Fly 7. West Coast Junkie 8. Stackin’ Bones (featuring Larkin Poe) 9. I Was A Highway 10. S-G-L-M-B-B-R 11. Hey Baby, Que Paso 12. Desert High

The Greek/Swedish melodic death metal stars Nightrage return with the final part in their trilogy of albums ('The Venomous', 'Wolf to Man') and now complete with their upcoming album 'Abyss Rising'. An album that is the band's vision of mankind living in its own hell - a hell it has created through the destruction of the planet. Inspired in part by Dante's 'inferno', the album explores man’s continual destruction of the world we live in until the abyss opens up to consume all before it. The abyss has risen from the depths, and hell has now turned outside in to be able to rise to earth to claim us. The album captures Nightrage in a spectacular form; incisive, brutal, uncompromising, and unforgettable. Musically the band have embraced a harder, faster, and brutal approach, still rich in melodic intent but characteristically heavy and aggressive. Mixed and mastered by Fredrik Nordstrom at Studio Fredman (Architects, In Flames, Opeth, etc.) 'Abyss Rising' is a formidable sonic masterpiece. The album will be released in fall 2021.
