Los Angeles, CA – November 10, 2025 – Hard rock icon Graham Bonnet and the Graham Bonnet Band have dropped their explosive new single “Night Games,” the lead track from the upcoming live album Lost In Hollywood Again, set for release on December 12, 2025 via Frontiers Music Srl. The song arrives with a high-energy official live music video, captured during the band’s triumphant performance at the legendary Whisky a Go Go.
Speaking on the track, Bonnet declared:
“‘Night Games’ is one of those songs that brings everybody to their feet within the first three notes. It’s a good old rock ‘n’ roll song and everyone can relate to that!”
Recorded and filmed on August 29, 2024, at the iconic Sunset Strip venue, Lost In Hollywood Again immortalizes a night of raw power, deep legacy, and electrifying chemistry. The album stands as both a celebration of Bonnet’s six-decade career and a showcase for his current band’s razor-sharp musicianship....
Los Angeles, CA – November 10, 2025 – Slaytanic Verses, the official online museum dedicated to thrash metal legends SLAYER, has launched its newest digital collection, "Hell On Tour." The archive marks the 40th anniversary of the band's groundbreaking album Hell Awaits and chronicles the grueling 1985 world tour that propelled it across seven countries in a blistering 60-show onslaught.
At the heart of the exhibit is the band's original handwritten tour notebook—a blue-covered relic meticulously maintained by SLAYER's tour manager. This artifact provides an unprecedented day-by-day chronicle of the band's early dominance, focusing on the four relentless weeks from March 15 to April 19, 1985, when Hell Awaits ignited its global conquest.
Fans can dive into exclusive, never-before-seen interviews with bassist/vocalist Tom Araya and guitarist Kerry King, who offer raw reflections on the era's chaos, intensity, and lasting impact. The collection meticulously documents travel routes, ...
Perfect mix of metal grit and radio hooks.
If this dropped in 1988 instead of 1984, they’d have gone multi-platinum.
