BLIND CHANNEL release their infamous boyband cover ‘Everybody (Bloodbros Back)’. After releasing their latest album Exit Emotions in March 2024, the chart-topping Finnish nu-metal stars are finally unleashing their legendary cover ‘Everybody (Bloodbros Back) of Backstreet Boys’ 1997 hit single ‘Everybody (Backstreet’s Back)’. The cover, which has been part of the bands’ live set-list all over the US and Europe, can already be considered a fan-favourite and turns the original boyband pop song into a high-octane headbanger that will have both metalheads and 90s fans moshing together.

The album is available for pre-order now.
The hybrid metal band Keoma from Helsinki, Finland founded in 2008, has released their third single called “Mutakuningas” from the upcoming third album.

From 1991 to 1998, Swedish hardcore punk band Refused revolutionized the genre and inspired legions of hardcore, alt-rock and metal bands to push the boundaries of their artistic expression and political awareness.
