French doom metal powerhouse NORNES has released their crushing new album, ‘Thou Hast Done Nothing’, available today, November 28th, via Sleeping Church Records. This record marks a significant transition for the band, who focused on extra effort in song structure and captivating atmospheres following recent lineup changes, resulting in a project worked like a five-act film score. The title, Old English for “Those who have done nothing,” reflects the core theme of the album: humanity’s ongoing decline and the endless cycle of mistakes, symbolized by the cover art, a 1940 painting illustrating man blindly shaping the heavy block of his own destiny.
Sylosis Announces New Album ‘The New Flesh’ And Massive UK/EU Tour
Today marks a massive moment for metal fans as Sylosis has revealed the first concrete details of their highly anticipated seventh studio album, titled ‘The New Flesh’, which is slated to drop on February 20th, 2026, via Nuclear Blast Records. The colossal four-piece, featuring the solid lineup of Josh Middleton on guitar and lead vocals, Ali Richardson on drums, Conor Marshall on guitar, and Ben Thomas on bass, did not just announce the record; they also unleashed a god-tier single, the absolutely raging album title track, “The New Flesh.”
The band shared the energy and intent behind this new era, stating, “Introducing ‘The New Flesh’. This is us solidifying the lineup of the band and moving forward with a new sense of purpose and aggression. After having spent so much of the last two years on the road, ‘The New Flesh’ and the songs that will follow from the album have been written with the live environment in mind. There is an energy running through these songs that we’ve never felt on a Sylosis album, until now. We’ll see you all in 2026.” That quote perfectly sums up the intense power driving this new material.
The eleven tracks on the new album promise to deliver that newfound aggression and purpose Sylosis described. The tracklist includes powerful titles such as “Beneath The Surface,” “Lacerations,” “All Glory, No Valour,” “Mirror Mirror,” and “Spared From The Guillotine,” culminating with the title track, “The New Flesh.” This album feels like a genuine statement of intent, cementing the lineup and channeling their immense live power directly into the studio recordings.

Hamilton Rocks: TD Coliseum Unveils $300M Transformation With Paul McCartney Opener
Leaders from across Ontario came together today to celebrate the official opening of the newly transformed TD Coliseum. Following an 18-month, $300-million redevelopment, the venue will make its debut with a sold-out performance by Sir Paul McCartney on Friday, November 21. Led by Oak View Group, the global leader in premium live entertainment infrastructure and services including venue development, venue management, hospitality, and sponsorship sales, the transformation of the 463,000-square-foot venue in the heart of downtown Hamilton blends technology, design, and hospitality that will raise the bar on delivering an unprecedented guest experience.
“TD Coliseum is more than a venue —it’s a space built with the community in mind,” said Chris Granger, Interim CEO, Oak View Group. “From premium hospitality and innovative service to programming that fills our venues and fuels the local economy, this arena shows what’s possible when partnerships, vision, and bold ideas come together to create an unforgettable experience for every guest.”
Community leaders, partners, and dignitaries from across the region came together to celebrate this milestone moment for Hamilton.
“As Hamilton continues to grow, TD Coliseum is a world-class venue that will draw visitors from around the world,” said Ontario Premier Doug Ford. “This venue will be a game-changer for the city’s economy, helping revitalize the downtown and generating tens of millions of dollars in economic growth.”
“We’re incredibly proud of our commitment to the communities we serve, and the opening of TD Coliseum is the latest example of how we bring that support to life,” said Raymond Chun, Group President and CEO, TD Bank Group. “At TD, we believe music has the power to inspire, connect cultures, and create moments that bring people together. Supporting music isn’t just about entertainment; it’s about strengthening our communities and celebrating what makes them unique.”
TD Coliseum debuts with a fully reimagined fan experience, combining cutting-edge technology, elevated hospitality, and premium amenities throughout the venue. Guests will enjoy a more seamless journey from arrival to encore through the TD Coliseum Mobile App, digital wayfinding, high-speed Wi-Fi, and new frictionless food and beverage options. The arena’s expanded culinary program celebrates Hamilton’s local flavors alongside nationally recognized partners, while upgraded premium clubs, lounges, and suites offer next-level comfort and service.

Investments like this create new energy in our core, strengthen our economy, and open opportunities for local businesses – from restaurants and shops to hotels and cultural organizations. I have been anxiously awaiting this day, so that we can begin to welcome families, fans, artists and athletes back to this iconic venue.

Ian Harrison Drops Emotionally Charged New Track “If You Ever Loved Me”
Ian Harrison has just released his latest track, “If You Ever Loved Me,” and it is absolutely captivating. The song arrives with lush, expansive production, a cathartic chorus, and a lamenting melody that makes the experience equal parts demanding and deeply melancholy for the listener. The lyrics detail the final, crushing showdown at the end of a relationship, essentially serving as a plea for an elusive sense of closure, begging a former love for one final act of mercy before the inevitable separation.
Harrison shared the powerful inspiration behind the track, saying, “If You Ever Loved Me’ is a song inspired by the feeling of letting go. The push and pull of slowly growing apart resulting in one person giving the last act of love someone can: leaving. An idea that stems from the saying ‘if you love them, let them go.’ Holding on might suffocate a person and not give them the ability to grow and change. When it all comes down to the end, distance can be a bittersweet gesture of affection.” This thoughtful reflection reveals the deep emotional intelligence driving the song’s narrative.
The track showcases Harrison’s ability to take a painful moment and translate it into a compelling piece of music, full of dynamic shifts and melodic strength. It is a song that rewards listeners who appreciate honest, reflective lyricism paired with sophisticated musical arrangements. The demanding chorus and melancholic core ensure “If You Ever Loved Me” resonates long after the final note fades.
Myles from Home Release Personal, Rhythmic New Single “You’re Gonna Go Far”
Vancouver’s indie folk-rock group Myles from Home makes a memorable return with their emotionally charged new single, “You’re Gonna Go Far,” now available on all digital streaming platforms. This is a wonderfully moving track rooted deeply in memory, profound gratitude, and the unmistakable, electric rush of childhood possibility. The release marks the band’s third single of the year, following the reflective tones of September’s “I Remember” and the groovy, rhythmic foundation of February’s “Almost Everything.”
The song is anchored by frontman Myles Hildebrand’s warm, inviting vocals and the band’s signature fusion of folk-rock with funk and jazz-tinged textures. “You’re Gonna Go Far” stands out as one of their most intimate and expansive songs to date, swelling with genuine nostalgic warmth while simultaneously pulsing with the trio’s trademark rhythmic inventiveness. Hildebrand shared the deep personal inspiration behind the track, saying, “This song is about my Dad, and a moment from my childhood that I’ll remember for the rest of my life. It’s about feeling like you have the world at your feet. This moment kept coming back up, and since my Dad is my number one fan, I felt very inspired to turn the memory of that moment into a song. Every time we play it live, I’m emotional and the crowd is too.”
Myles from Home is known across Canada and internationally for their genre-defying songwriting and truly immersive, high-energy live performances. Critics have consistently praised their eclectic sound and inventive approach. Honk Magazine spotlighted their “refusal to stick to one genre,” while Lost in the Manor (UK) described their productions as “quirky, funny, and filled with clean electric guitars that impress with their ability to fill the room with sound.” Their singles have consistently earned attention from dozens of international outlets, with reviewers calling their music “playful, uplifting and relatable,” “quietly confident,” and “an introspective yet euphoric slice of indie rock.”
With nearly fifty shows successfully completed and over 140,000 streams across platforms, the Vancouver trio has built a dedicated reputation for pushing indie music into exciting, unexpected spaces. They consistently find imaginative ways to connect with fans, ranging from Mario Kart–style video shoots to unique canoe performances staged at Kits Beach. Do604 noted the singular nature of their hometown album celebration, writing that, “It wasn’t just a concert; it was a celebration of community, artistry, and the joy of sharing music together.” “You’re Gonna Go Far” represents the latest step in a year of powerful creative momentum for the band as they continue shaping what modern Canadian indie music can truly sound like: tender, adventurous, deeply human, and completely unafraid to experiment with sound.
