This summer, rock n’ roll has found a new home at the COPA ROOM at Tuscany Suites & Casino in Las Vegas.

Doors open at 9:30 p.m. and the music starts at 10 p.m. Self-parking and valet parking at the Tuscany are always complimentary.

The COPA ROOM has announced its first four shows (listed below), three of which have no cover. The 18+ venue has a capacity of 150-200 (depending on the layout), with areas designed for both seating and standing. A full-service bar is available with well drinks priced at $10-12 and beers between $5-7.

Now that those are in place, we are very excited to host these shows.”

McNees adds that he and his team were “heavily inspired by The Viper Room,” the legendary Los Angeles club, and feel that rock audiences will resonate with the COPA ROOM.

While their legions of fans anxiously await a new album, innovative Mongolian rock group and global phenomenon The HU—Galaa, Jaya, Temka, and Enkush—today (June 13) have released a new digital EP ECHOS OF THUNDER via Better Noise Music. It contains alternate versions of three standout songs from their album, RUMBLE OF THUNDER—“This Is Mongol,” “Bii Biyelgee,” and “Triangle”—with special guests including members of Alice In Chains, Thousand Foot Krutch, and Neon Trees, as well as ROME.

ECHOS OF THUNDER is available now on digital outlets HERE. The visualizer video for “This Is Mongol (Warrior Souls) (Feat. William DuVall from Alice In Chains and Trevor McNevan from Thousand Foot Krutch) – Teerawk Remix” can be viewed HERE.

“This Is Mongol” receives a dynamic remix treatment by Trevor McNevan of Thousand Foot Krutch, working under his remix alias Teerawk. Teerawk brings his signature energy to the track, layering in additional vocals and lyrics that both complement and expand upon William DuVall’s (Alice In Chains) original vision. The ECHOS OF THUNDER EP also contains “Bii Biyelgee,” featuring Tyler Glenn of Neon Trees, and “Triangle,” featuring ROME, offering listeners a diverse and compelling reimagining of the original album’s spirit. The EP also includes the original versions of “This Is Mongol,” “Bii Biyelgee,” and “Triangle.”

“I am glad that our label partners at Better Noise Music suggested this EP because, as I like to say, from Classic Rock to Heavy Metal, our genre of Hunnu Rock has no limits,” says frontman Galaa. “The ECHOS OF THUNDER EP presents an opportunity for more collaborations with different artists to expand on our original music. We hope our loyal fans will enjoy these new versions of songs from the RUMBLE OF THUNDER album!”

In touring news, the European leg of The HU’s headlining “Incarnation” world tour kicked off June 6 in Maastricht, NL. It will coincide with a series of shows supporting Scandinavian folk band Heilung on their final tour. THE HU will also appear on several of Europe’s largest heavy music festivals during the run, including Hellfest and Graspop Metal Meeting. See the full list of dates below. Tickets are on sale now via THE HU’s website HERE.

The HU released RUMBLE OF THUNDER in 2022 via Better Noise Music while continuing to tour across the globe, including shows in Japan and festival appearances at Coachella, Lollapalooza, Download Festival and more. In November 2022, The HU became the first-ever rock/metal band to receive the prestigious UNESCO “Artist of Peace” Designation at UNESCO’s headquarters in Paris, France by UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay. Previous recipients include Celine Dion, Shirley Bassey, Sarah Brightman, Herbie Hancock, Marcus Miller, and World Orchestra For Peace. They’ve brought Mongolian music to the forefront with their unique brand of Hunnu Rock which blends traditional Mongolian instrumentation and throat singing with contemporary rock music. With over 900 million all-time streams, 300 million video views, #1 charting albums, multiple sold-out headlining tours, prestigious government honors and awards, collaborations with several of rock’s biggest names, and featured music on video games including EA Games’ Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, THE HU have cemented their status as a global powerhouse.

GODSMACK’s 2014 Album ‘1000HP’ To Be Commemorated With Limited Vinyl Editions

DATE: JUNE 13, 2025

GODSMACK’s 2014 ALBUM
‘1000HP’
TO BE COMMEMORATED WITH LIMITED-EDITION
BLACK AND COLOR VINYL EDITIONS
OUT AUGUST 8
PRE-ORDER THEM HERE

AI-generated content may be incorrect.

Coming on the heels of the March release of deluxe editions of the group’s album The Oracle, remastered and special limited editions of GODSMACK’s 2014 album 1000HP will now be released August 8 on UMe as both a black vinyl edition as well as a limited-edition color vinyl version, the latter of which includes bonus features. The black vinyl will feature the original U.S. album cover with the 10 tracks remastered; the color version will include the album’s alternate cover mostly unknown to U.S. fans (available on the album in all non-U.S. markets), along with a bonus 7” single of “Inside Yourself,” and appearing on vinyl for the first time, “Life Is Good.” Both formats are available for pre-order this Friday, June 13 via HERE.

1000HP (GODSMACK’s sixth album) was released on August 5, 2014 and debuted at #3 on the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart; like The Oracle, it was mixed and produced by Dave Fortman. Upon its debut, 1000HP garnered high praise including Revolver which gave the album four out of five stars and commended the band for “pushing their boundaries…with 1000HP, Godsmack offer up a few new sounds, while at the same time remaining firmly resolute in their musical mission.” ARTISTdirect added that the album was “a high watermark for the Boston group” and “the best hard rock record of the year.” Additional acclaim included:

Billboard:
“[Sully] Erna hasn’t lost his pissed-off edge, remaining in perpetual rant throughout the album. At least he knows how to channel his ill temper into contagious rock radio confections, like the title track…booming with the band’s brand of blistering ire…”

Guitar World:
“With a new-found thrashed-up ‘punk’ energy, 1000HP is really about going back to basics. It’s old-school Godsmack, but with a new kind of twist.”

Loudwire:
“1000HP succeeds in bringing the hard in heavy doses with just the perfect smattering of melody in just the right places. There’s little doubt that with 1000HP Godsmack have re-establishing their place in the world of hard rock.”

Additionally, they’ve enjoyed 24 Top 10 hits at the format–the most of any act since February 1999–as well as four Grammy nominations and were named Billboard Music Award’s Rock Artist of the Year in 2001. Selling over 20 million records worldwide, the band has released eight studio albums: Godsmack (1998), Awake (2000), Faceless (2003), IV (2006), The Oracle (2010), 1000HP (2014), When Legends Rise (2018), and Lighting Up the Sky (2023). In 2023, the Massachusetts-bred quartet took a victory lap with their eighth studio album Lighting Up the Sky, dropping one more classic album as they ascend into the celebratory portion of their career. The powerful storytelling of Lighting Up the Sky covers boy-meets-girl, obstacles in relationships, the polarized political climate and the state of the world, betrayal, connection, rebounds, and more.

DUSTIN DOUGLAS & THE ELECTRIC GENTLEMEN’s New Album ‘IV’ Is Out Now As Band Gears Up For Summer Tour Dates

DUSTIN DOUGLAS & THE ELECTRIC GENTLEMEN’s fourth album IV (June 6, via MoMojo Records) is out now as the supercharged, dirty blues-influenced rockers gear up for summer tour dates launching this Wednesday, June 11 (see the itinerary below). Stream the much-anticipated album HERE and view clip about it HERE.

IV is a raw, unapologetic, Blues-Rock Master course from the group—DOUGLAS, drummer Tommy Smallcomb and bassist Matt Gabriel. It is a powerhouse album drenched in whiskey-soaked riffs and soaring Rock n’ Roll vocals that once again display DOUGLAS’ meteoric rise as one of the heaviest hitters in the Blues-Rock world. The album was recorded at Eight Days a Week Studios in Northumberland, PA by Paul Smith (Badlees), who engineered and co-produced the album with DOUGLAS. It was mixed and mastered by Nick Coyle (Lifer, Drama Club, Death Valley Dreams).

IV is already generating critical praise:

ROCK AND BLUES MUSE: “From the opening ear-splitting riffs, and Douglas’s Steve Marriott (Humble Pie)-like vocals, the trio’s runaway freight train approach is on full display…[it’s] an album filled with blistering guitar riffs and solos…cutting loose, Douglas’s guitar and this trio along with Smith, eviscerate boundaries with fine-tuned skill. Brace yourself. There is no sugar coating and you won’t find the slimmest taste of honey on the album. This is blues-rock, 21st Century style, an exhilarating ride, delivered by one of today’s fastest rising power trios, Dustin Douglas and the Electric Gentlemen.” (5-29-25)

TINNITIST: “From the southern rock stomp of ‘Long Gone,’ the sleazy, ’70s growl of ‘Dangerous Game,’ the Tom Petty-inspired ‘Drunk And Alone’ and the David Gilmour-meets-Jimmy Page fretwork of ‘Missin’ You,’ the nine tracks on IV bleed with passion and pain while burning with a fire of Douglas’s signature guitar sound and The Electric Gentlemen’s thunderous supporting rhythm. IV is a testament to the unrelenting spirit of rock ’n’ roll.” (6-1-25)

Prior to the album’s release, the group—known for a heavy dose of swagger, groove, and rock ‘n’ roll attitude both on stage and in the studio—released three singles/videos: the current “Drunk and Alone,” “Dangerous Game,” and “Damage.” For the bracing “Drunk and Alone,” the ferocious singer, songwriter, and guitarist and his band teamed up with his friend, director Nyke Van Wyk, for the gritty, moving clip which DOUGLAS reveals is autobiographical. “This one is extremely personal for me. It’s one of those songs where I was reluctant to even put it on the record due to the vulnerability of it all.” DUSTIN reveals more about “Drunk and Alone” at antiMusic.

ANNOUNCE
“THE FRAGILE TOUR 2025,

BAND TO PERFORM THEIR ICONIC
‘FRAGILE’ ALBUM IN ITS ENTIRETY
ALONG WITH CLASSIC CUTS
THE U.S. TOUR GETS UNDERWAY OCTOBER 1

“The Fragile Tour 2025, The Album Series” Art (Download)

Influential and pioneering Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees YES—who are Steve Howe (guitars, vocals), Geoff Downes (keyboards), Jon Davison (vocals, acoustic guitar), Billy Sherwood (bass guitar, vocals), and Jay Schellen (drums)—have today (June 10) announced their “The Fragile Tour 2025, The Album Series” set for this fall in the U.S. This “evening with Yes” trek launches October 1 in Wallingford, CT and wraps November 16 in Reno, NV. Tickets go on sale June 13. Go to www.yesworld.com/live for ticketing information.

At these shows, the progressive rock titans will perform their iconic Fragile album in its entirety along with classics cuts from their legendary body of work. The multi-platinum album features their signature songs “Roundabout,” “Long Distance Runaround,” and “Heart of the Sunrise.” Fragile, the band’s fourth studio album, was released in the UK in November 1971 and in the US in January 1972. The “Fragile Tour” is regarded as a key moment is YES’ history—it’s when the band became a headline act in the US.

“All the band’s albums had a unique feel and approach,” says Steve Howe. “After ‘The Yes Album,’ so many things came together, with [co-producer] Eddie Offord steering the proceedings. While the band focused on only four main songs with full arrangements, each of us wrote and designed a solo piece, which was Bill [Bruford]’s great idea. It’s fairly ‘odd-ball,’ but we were at the height of our creativity, determined for success.” Howe adds: “It gave us confidence, further than our own in-stock belief, we’d crafted this unusual but noticeable musical twist to rock and what later became prog.”

Fragile also marks the band’s first album to be designed by Roger Dean. He would also design many of YES’ future album covers, the band’s logo, and live stage sets. This striking union of music and design is key in how YES’ sound and vision would be perceived; it also underlined how important artistic visuals were becoming in the rock world. On “The Fragile Tour 2025,” YES will perform in front of a video wall featuring AI treatment of Dean’s art, bringing YES’ art into the 2020s. Roger Dean art will be available in the merch area at all the shows.

“Roger was and is quintessential to the look of Yes,” notes Howe. “He’s still creating great paintings and design—he has no competition.”

#1 Global Power Metal Band and one of Sweden’s most successful bands SABATON—Joakim Brodén (vocals), Pär Sundström (bass), Chris Rörland (guitar), Thobbe Englund (guitar), Hannes, Van Dahl (drums)—have unveiled their second single and cinematic video, “Hordes Of Khan” from their forthcoming 11^th studio album which is due out later this year, marking their Better Noise Music debut. Watch the video HERE and stream/download the track HERE.

“The story behind our new single ‘Hordes Of Khan’ was a great one to take a deep dive into,” says singer Joakim Brodén. “The song actually turned out to have way more depth than we expected. Genghis Khan wasn’t just a conqueror; he was a complex figure who left behind a huge legacy. He built the largest contiguous empire in history, stretching far beyond Mongolia, and his influence only grew after his death. Honestly, we couldn’t have picked a more suitable subject for the new direction SABATON is heading in! ‘Hordes of Khan’ hits hard, and it’s heavy for good reason. We know our fans crave heavy music, and we’re pumped to see how they react to this one. Hopefully, it’s a track they’ll be blasting on repeat!”

As bassist Pär Sundström explains, “Joakim wanted to write a proper heavy metal song, and as we’ve seen from past releases, a lot of our fans appreciate pure fucking heavy metal! That’s what ‘Hordes Of Khan’ is, and when you listen to it and close your eyes, you can imagine Genghis Khan on his horse, galloping to battle. Joakim composed the music and I actually wrote the lyrics for this one. When I started to work on them, I realized the melody was pretty complicated. Honestly, they were some of the most difficult lyrics that I’ve ever written. All in all, I’m very happy with the result, especially as Joakim has said that parts of the lyrics are some of SABATON’s best to date.”

The music video for “Hordes of Khan” is based in the future, in the year 2045. It was filmed in London at two different locations, the Natural History Museum and at Harrow School, and follows the main character–a young girl–who plays in a heavy metal band and loves SABATON, but she won’t ever have the opportunity to see the band play because in 2039, all wars have miraculously ended. The world is now peaceful, and war is obsolete and therefore, so is SABATON. The girl hears about a museum that’s featuring a SABATON exhibit with all of the band members’ musical instruments. The girl and her band sneak into this museum to check it out. Once inside, they are greeted by a hologram telling the story about the musical instruments of SABATON that contain magic that brings history to life. The kids take no notice, pick up the instruments and begin to play.

Once the music begins, a ferocious Genghis Khan comes to life along with five other legendary soldiers played by the band members. Their mission is to stop Genghis before he escapes the museum to take over the world.

“When reflecting on all of the music videos we’ve ever created,” says Pär Sundström, “our ‘Hordes of Khan’ music video was the most exciting in a lot of ways, even though ‘Christmas Truce’ is a much more emotional topic and story. I think this one specifically contains much more depth and action, and in combination with the locations and the actors, I’m confident that it will resonate with everyone!”

The children acting in the music video had their work cut out for them. They didn’t just want it to look like they were playing the instruments, they actually wanted the kids to really play the instruments and perform the song correctly. They thought it was going to be super challenging, but in this case they all learned the song by heart and performed it. “We were really proud of them all! What people see in the video is playback, but all of them know their parts and they can play ‘Hordes Of Khan’ for real,” Sundström continues. “We loved seeing that happen! Our ex-drummer Daniel Mullback’s son played the drums and acted in this music video as well, and he absolutely nailed it. Another amazing drummer in the making!”

SABATON have always had a signature focus on writing songs about historical battles, wars, and acts of heroism that have solidified their impact with their loyal and longtime fans. SABATON have accumulated more than three billion streams across all streaming platforms and almost two billion views on YouTube.

“Hordes of Khan” is the follow-up to “Templars,” which was released April 25 on digital outlets. You can hear “Templars” (which has been streamed over 8 million times) HERE, and watch the music video (which has been viewed over 2.5 million times) HERE.

ABOUT SABATON:

In the more than two decades since the band’s launch, SABATON has headlined major festivals, sold-out arena concerts worldwide, and gained a legion of loyal fans by carving out a reputation for being one of the hardest working bands in the business. Since their 2005 debut album, they’ve earned Gold, Platinum, and multi-Platinum certifications in territories around the world with their 10 studio albums. Eight of their albums scored Top 10 international chart status, and six claimed the Top 5. SABATON has earned eight Metal Hammer/Golden Gods Awards nominations, taking home the award for “Breakthrough Artist” in 2011 and “Best Live Band” in three different years, and a Grammis nomination (Swedish equivalent to the U.S. Grammy Award) as Best Heavy Metal band.
