Testament Cover “Seek & Destroy” As Part Of “No Life ‘ Til Leather – A Tribute To Metallica’s Kill ‘Em All”


Silver Lining Music to release No Life ‘Til Leather – A Tribute to Metallica’s Kill ‘Em All on November 14th. The third single from the all-star compilation is from thrash metal icons Testament, the full-throttle cover of Metallica’s anthem ‘Seek & Destroy’.

You can divide the history of heavy metal into two distinct chapters: ‘before Metallica’ and ‘after Metallica’. When the Four Horsemen galloped to the top of dozens of countries’ charts with their self-titled album in 1991, they became the new measuring stick for their genre, and their standard is one that no hard rockers since have matched, let alone outdone. Yet – for all the sellout tours, broken records and reinventive efforts over the last 45 years – they started the same way almost every other noisy band do: ferocious kids driven to shove metal up your ass.

NOW ITS DARK Unleash Their Hypnotic New Single “NYMPH” A Seductive Dive into the Shadows of Modern Rock


Emerging from the electric underbelly of Chicago’s rock scene, NOW ITS DARK have returned to lure listeners into their sonic labyrinth with their mesmerizing new single, “Nymph.” The track is a darkly seductive anthem that blends haunting melodies, cinematic atmosphere, and raw emotional power — the kind of song that doesn’t just play in your head, it takes up permanent residence.

With “Nymph,” NOW ITS DARK showcase their signature fusion of shadowy modern rock and sleek, pulse-driven production. The song slithers through tension and release — a seductive whisper one moment, a full-throated eruption the next. It’s a track that feels both intimate and immense, channeling the visceral edge of Killswitch Engage, the ethereal pull of Lacuna Coil, and the emotional gravity of Three Days Grace, yet remaining wholly their own.

REMEMBER THE MONSTERS X ORGY Unleash “SYSTEM OVERRIDE,” a Rallying Cry Against a Broken World. When Compromise Fails, the Reset Begins.


“SYSTEM OVERRIDE” paints a picture of a collapsing society through the lens of personal disillusionment and collective struggle. At its core, it’s about mistrust, division, and the breakdown of systems, whether political, social, or spiritual, that once promised stability but now only deliver emptiness and control.

The recurring imagery of black & white versus color reflects the loss of hope, imagination, and nuance in a world consumed by conflict and polarization. Where once there may have been shades of possibility, everything now feels rigid, divided, and lifeless. The line “Do you dream in color?” becomes a desperate plea for vision, empathy, and renewal in a society that has grown numb and mechanical.
