Having set the rock and metal world alight in September with the announcement of a forthcoming solo album and Latin American tour dates, further details of Bruce Dickinson’s The Mandrake Project are revealed today.
The first single to be taken from it will be ‘Afterglow of Ragnarok’, a dramatic and epic track that introduces the world not just to the music of the album but to the compelling narrative that forms the basis of The Mandrake Project. It will be released on December 1st as a collectable vinyl 7” single, that includes an eight-page comic book. The single also features Dickinson’s original solo demo version of the song ‘If Eternity Should Fail’, which first appeared on Iron Maiden’s album The Book Of Souls in 2015.

PHOTO REPORT: Deathstars, Priest and King Satan
October 30, 2023 Swedish Industrial Metal masters Deathstars made an appearance in Tampere, Finland along with Priest and King Satan. Although it was a Monday, the venue was packed (some people even in costume for Halloween, beyond the normal dress code of latex and chains).
A hometown gig for King Satan as a proper send off for their European tour with Gothminister, the audience was filled with friends and fans from the beginning. Priest was an incredibly pleasant surprise, with no expectation, they hit hyperdrive on the dark party atmosphere and you would have never guessed it was a Monday night! The vocalist even sauntered through the audience as he sang, blessing (cursing? exorcising?) random audience members.
Although it seemed to take a few songs for Deathstars to get into the mood (specially after the incredibly entertaining and energetic Priest), about a third of the way through the gig, it was a visible metamorphosis as one by one they slipped into the vibe of the night. Tantalizing, hypnotizing and teasing the audience. One twitch, and Andreas Bergh went from seeming a bit tired and unsure to dominating the venue. Shushing the audience on command, then simply yelling “Hands!” or “Scream”as desired. It was a perfection for the season.

AMERICAN JETSET Reveals Lyric Video for New Haunting Halloween Anthem, “Hells Out To Get Ya”!
Baltimore, MD based, Heavy Rock Band AMERICAN JETSET is creeping out of the shadows this Halloween to raze the earth with their savagely sleazy single, “Hell’s Out to Get Ya”!
This haunting Halloween anthem arose from the ashes of an 80s nightmare and is delivered with ghastly aggression and extreme vengeance. The thunderous backbeats, gnarled chords, and blood soaked hooks reveal a dangerously maleficent manifesto – a spectrally distorted testament to monsters everywhere.
The B-side, “Firestarter,” ignites into full afterburner. The macabre iconography is surrounded by a a showcase of furious guitars, bludgeoning bass, and razor sharp vocals, all synthesized into a horrifying hell-raiser that you’ll have on repeat.
“This earworm has devil horns. If any new outfit can push Misfits to the back of your Halloween playlists, it’s American Jetset.” – AMELIA VANDERGAST – EXECUTIVE EDITOR – A&R FACTORY
