“If we define fun as the unknowing acceleration of time, then Rammstein’s particular brand of self-obliteration, in which time collapses entirely, is a guaranteed good time“
– THE NEW YORKER
 
“The commitment to excessive pyromania was epic stagecraft on a Wagnerian scale, several notches up from most arena rock. More important was that the six-piece band… wasn’t dependent on those fireworks but could have easily punished and soothed the senses to nearly the same effect with music alone“
– THE LOS ANGELES TIMES
 
“One of heavy music’s biggest and most dynamic live acts“

– CONSEQUENCE

2022 marked the North American debut of the most extreme spectacle in live music, when RAMMSTEIN brought its full-scale stadium production to the continent for the first and only time. Seven 747s and nearly 210 crew members brought rock ’n’ roll’s most ambitious pyro-theatrical experience overseas to blaze a flaming trail through 12 open-air dates that began on August 21 in Montreal and went on to set seven U.S. stadiums ablaze before the tour concluded with a massive three-night stand at Mexico City’s 65,000-capacity Foro Sol stadium on October 1, 2 and 4, 2022.

RAMMSTEIN – LIVE IN MEXICO CITY is the definitive document of that triumphant trio of Mexico City shows witnessed by nearly 200,000 ecstatic fans, and of the global stadium tour that filled football fields the world over with fans and flames from 2019 to 2024. Filmed in 4K, the feature-length concert film brings the fire and adrenaline of the inimitable RAMMSTEIN live experience to the cinema screen, as the band powers through stadium-sized renditions of career-spanning highlights including “Armee der Tristen,” “Deutschland,” “Du riechst so gut,” “Sonne,” “Du hast,” a rare performance of “Te quiero puta!“ and many, many more. 

Directed by award-winning director Paul Dugdale (whose previous credits include The Rolling Stones, Taylor Swift, Elton John and Adele), tickets are now on sale for RAMMSTEIN – LIVE IN MEXICO CITY — for full cinema listings and further information, please visit www.rammsteinmexico.live.

About RAMMSTEIN
RAMMSTEIN’s 2019-2024 global stadium tour coincided with the release of the band’s seventh and eighth studio albums: its untitled 2019 album, which topped 14 international charts – including the U.S. Top 10 – and ZEIT, released on April 29, 2022, almost exactly three years to the day after its predecessor.

Over the course of a career spanning 30 years and counting, RAMMSTEIN has sold more than 20 million albums around the world and played countless spectacular, groundbreaking tours. The Berlin sextet’s lineup of Till Lindemann (vocals), Paul Landers (guitar), Richard Z. Kruspe (guitar), Flake (keyboards), Oliver Riedel (bass) and Christoph Schneider (drums) has remained unchanged since the band’s formation in 1994 and the release of its debut album in 1995, HERZELEID. RAMMSTEIN’s second album, SEHNSUCHT, released in 1997, propelled the band to international fame and featured the GRAMMY-nominated single „Du hast“. MUTTER, the third RAMMSTEIN album, was released in 2001 and was supported by what would be the band’s last U.S. tour for nearly a decade. REISE, REISE, the band’s fourth studio album, was released in 2004, preceded by the GRAMMY-nominated single „Mein Teil“ and followed by the fifth album, ROSENROT, in 2005. LIEBE IST FÜR ALLE DA, the sixth RAMMSTEIN studio album, was released in 2009 and would be the first RAMMSTEIN album since 2001’s MUTTER to be supported by North American touring: On December 11, 2010, RAMMSTEIN played its first U.S. date in 10 years, a one-off headline show at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The MSG show sold out in less than 20 minutes and was followed by extensive North American tours in 2011 and 2012, during which RAMMSTEIN made its debut on U.S. network television, performing „Du hast“ and „Feuer Frei!“ on JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE!. RAMMSTEIN broke into the U.S. Top 10 for the first time with the May 17, 2019 release of its untitled album, which reached No. 9 on the Billboard 200.

Metallica & Red Cross Rock Blood Donation With Exclusive Vegas Experience

Metallica and The Red Cross Rock Blood Donation with Exclusive New Vegas Experience 

Fans can help save lives, get a behind-the-scenes peek and score new merch beginning later this month

Following the lifesaving success of the collaboration that kicked off last year, the American Red Cross and Metallica are once again joining forces to help patients in need with an all-new, exclusive experience for blood donors. 

In celebration of the band’s upcoming Las Vegas residency, the Red Cross, Metallica and its foundation, All Within My Hands, are launching the Red Cross x Metallica Blood Donation Experience ─ a pop-up blood donation center where members of the Metallica Family can help save lives and get the chance to step into the world behind the scenes of a Metallica concert starting later this month:

  • The Red Cross x Metallica Blood Donation Experience, sponsored by Delta Air Lines, will open its doors on Sept. 28, at Fashion Show Las Vegas on the famous Las Vegas strip. 
  • The immersive experience gives donors a sense of what it’s like backstage at a show and includes the opportunity to take a seat at a replica drum set similar to the one used by Lars Ulrich, founding member of Metallica.
  • All who come to give at this site will receive a limited-edition T-shirt designed by Squindo, while supplies last. 
  • Additionally, all who come to give will be automatically entered for a chance to win the same replica drum kit, built by TAMA and much like the one specially made for Lars Ulrich for Metallica’s WorldWired Tour. Full terms and conditions can be found at RedCrossBlood.org/Metallica.
  • Donors will also have the chance to enjoy refreshments post-donation at the Delta Backstage Lounge. As a longtime blood partner of the Red Cross, Delta is providing the support that gives blood donors the chance to take part in this unique donation experience.

Don’t miss the chance to join our band ─ make an appointment to give blood at the Red Cross x Metallica Blood Donation Experience by visiting RedCrossBlood.org/Metallica, calling 1-800-RED CROSS or by downloading the Blood Donor App.  

Red Cross x Metallica Blood Donation Experience
sponsored by Delta Air Lines
Sept. 28, 2026-March 19, 2027
Fashion Show Las Vegas 
3200 Las Vegas Blvd. S
Las Vegas, Nevada 89109

Through mid-November, the donation center will welcome donors Monday through Friday, noon-6 p.m. (mid-November-March schedule to follow).

Lifesaving Impact
Members of the Metallica Family have answered the call to help save lives since April 2025, when the Red Cross and Metallica teamed up to hold blood drives at select stops during the U.S. leg of the M72 Tour. The campaign quickly expanded nationwide, giving fans across the country a chance to participate as part of the Give Where You Live campaign. As a result, more than 25,000 blood donations were collected across the U.S. as part of the collaboration. The movement also went global ─ with the band encouraging blood donation at overseas stops along their M72 World Tour. About 93,000 total blood donations were collected worldwide.

How to donate blood
Simply download the American Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit RedCrossBlood.org/Metallica, call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or enable the Blood Donor Skill on any Alexa Echo device to make an appointment or for more information. All blood types are needed to ensure a reliable supply for patients. A blood donor card or driver’s license or two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years of age in most states (16 with parental consent where allowed by state law), weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.

Blood and platelet donors can save time at their next donation by using RapidPass® to complete their pre-donation reading and health history questionnaire online, on the day of their donation, before arriving at the blood drive. To get started, follow the instructions at RedCrossBlood.org/RapidPass or use the Blood Donor App.

About the American Red Cross
The American Red Cross shelters, feeds and provides comfort to victims of disasters; supplies about 40% of the nation’s blood; teaches skills that save lives; distributes international humanitarian aid; and supports veterans, military members and their families. The Red Cross is a nonprofit organization that depends on volunteers and the generosity of the American public to deliver its mission. For more information, please visit redcross.org or CruzRojaAmericana.org, or follow us on social media.

About Metallica
Formed in 1981 by vocalist/guitarist James Hetfield and drummer Lars Ulrich and including guitarist Kirk Hammett and bassist Robert Trujillo, Metallica has become one of the most influential and successful rock bands in history, selling nearly 125 million albums worldwide and generating more than 25 billion streams while playing to millions of fans on all seven continents—more than 1.3 million of whom belong to the band’s fiercely loyal and consistently growing Fifth Member fan club. Metallica’s catalog of multi-platinum studio albums includes Kill ’Em All, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, …And Justice for All, Metallica (commonly referred to as The Black Album), Load, ReLoad, St. Anger, Death Magnetic, Hardwired…To Self-Destruct, and most recently, the Grammy-winning 72 Seasons, released April 14, 2023, on the band’s own Blackened Recordings label. Metallica’s awards and accolades include nine Grammy Awards, two American Music Awards, multiple MTV Video Music Awards, a 2009 induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and Sweden’s Polar Music Prize. In 2017, Metallica established its own charitable foundation, All Within My Hands, to give back to communities that have supported the band. To date, All Within My Hands has provided grants of $19M to career and technical education programs through its Metallica Scholars Initiative, $8.8M to combat food insecurity, and $6.2M to disaster relief and other critical local services worldwide.

The American Red Cross is Delta’s longest-standing nonprofit partner, a relationship that began in 1941, when Delta employees hosted the airline’s first blood drives during World War II and flew donated blood aboard Delta aircraft to support wartime medical efforts. That spirit of service endures today: Delta is the largest corporate blood drive sponsor in the U.S., powered by employees, retirees, and communities across the country. Delta is also an Annual Disaster Giving Program participant at the $1 million level and a national sponsor of the Sound the Alarm campaign, helping the Red Cross prepare communities before disaster strikes, respond at a moment’s notice, and deliver lifesaving units of blood.

BECK: NEW ALBUM, RIDE LONESOME, OUT TODAY WITH NEW VIDEO

BECK
RIDE LONESOME
NEW ALBUM OUT TODAY
“RUN AWAY” NEW VIDEO STARRING TADANOBU ASANO OUT NOW
North American Tour Begins September 22

Photo Credit: Mikai Karl

“Every instrument is laid carefully into place like a jewel, and the overall sound is ethereal and dreamy, with vocals emerging from a mist of reverb, pedal-steel guitar lines curling to the heavens, and tasteful strings and horns adding dabs of light and shade” — WALL STREET JOURNAL

“A drop-dead gorgeous meditation on heartache and solitude.” — NME

The long wait for a new Beck album — punctuated with multiple singles, collaborations and tours — is over as of today, September 18, with the release of Ride Lonesome via Capitol Records.

Produced by Beck and mixed by Nigel Godrich, Ride Lonesome is already being hailed as “that rarest of things: a sequel to a sequel that’s every bit as good as its predecessors” by the GUARDIAN, “a stunning display of the alchemy of turning pain into sheer beauty” by MOJO, “another success, beautiful and evocative” by the WALL STREET JOURNAL and “spacious and unhurried” by THE NEW YORK TIMES.

Ride Lonesome‘s release is also marked by the premiere of a striking new video of the album’s second song, “Run Away.” Directed by Mikai Karl, produced by Ryan Smale and starring Golden Globe-winning actor Tadanobu Asano (Shogun, Thor: Ragnarok, Ichi the Killer), “Run Away” sees the sublime piano and guitar based melodies of the Ride Lonesome standout scoring interwoven narratives of lives on a parallel tracks set against the compelling backdrop of a Tokyo cityscape. To enter the world of “Run Away,” go to https://beck.lnk.to/RunAwayVid

Ride Lonesome owes a measure of its brand new yet warmly familiar atmosphere to the contributions of musicians with whom Beck recorded Sea Change, Morning Phase and Mutations — Smokey Hormel, Joey Waronker, Justin Meldal-Johnsen, Roger Joseph Manning Jr., and Jason Falkner — reunited at Room B at United Studios in Hollywood. Godrich, who had worked on Sea Change and Mutations, returned to mix the album. In the decade or so since 2015 GRAMMY Album of the Year winner Morning Phase was recorded, Beck and the band observed a noticeable evolution and deepening of their performance and chemistry, honed by decades of working together. He recalls, “While we were revisiting a musical and physical place, it also felt like we were finding new sounds and emotional textures along the way.”

Ride Lonesome’s release comes days ahead of the September 22 kick-off of its namesake tour at the Santa Barbara Bowl. The tour will see Beck digging deep into Ride Lonesome forebears Sea Change, Morning Phase and Mutations alongside future classics from the new album, bringing them all to life in intimate and ornate theaters across the continent. See below for a full itinerary, which includes stops at the Greek in L.A., Red Rocks, two nights each at The Masonic in SF, Massey Hall in Toronto and the Brooklyn Paramount, and many more, before concluding November 10 at the Keller Auditorium in Portland OR.

The power trio supergroup––Jenny Lewis, Erika Spring and Tennessee Thomas––has announced a special 10th anniversary tour, alongside a commemorative reissue of their singular album, Nice As Fuck.

Originally released in 2016, Nice As Fuck arrived like a clarion call during a politically and culturally divisive age…and right on cue, the band’s return feels newly resonant in these increasingly dystopian times. The record remains a singular snapshot of three musicians embracing revolution, spontaneity and the thrill of making music together.

The solution is revolution
Kill ‘em with love

In honor of the momentous occasion, Nice As Fuck has announced a special 10th anniversary tour––a limited run of dates with DJ Alix Brown that will kick off October 16th at Pasadena’s Sid the Cat, with stops across the west coast before heading east.  See below for all announced dates and grab tickets at https://NAF.lnk.to/Tour beginning at 9am PT/12am ET.

Coinciding with the 10th anniversary tour, Nice As Fuck’s self-titled debut––and long out-of-print LP–– is being reissued, and will be available to purchase at the shows as well as pre-order online at https://shop.jennylewis.com/collections/vinyl

ALL WITHIN MY HANDS PARTNERS WITH CNH FOR LABOR DAY AUCTION

ALL WITHIN MY HANDS PARTNERS WITH CNH TO CELEBRATE LABOR DAY WITH  AUCTION OF FINAL HETFIELD LIMITED EDITION CASE COMPACT TRACK LOADER 

All Funds Raised to Support Skilled Trade Education Programs Through the  Metallica Scholars Initiative

Metallica’s Foundation, All Within My Hands, is  partnering with CASE Construction Equipment, a brand of CNH, the world-class  agriculture and construction equipment and services company, to celebrate Labor Day in support of skilled trade education programs. This Labor Day weekend, edition 1 of 25 handmade “Hetskid” – The James Hetfield-inspired CASE skid steer – will be  available for bidding via the Purple Wave auction site. 

“These are the kinds of relationships we love. Since day one, the team at CNH has  embraced the work All Within My Hands is doing across the board. From direct financial support to the Metallica Scholars Initiative, where we provide funding for trade education, to volunteering with us at food banks along Metallica’s M72  World Tour, and now this incredible machine that I dare anyone to actually use in  the dirt!” – Renee Richardson, Director of Philanthropy, AWMH 

Built at the CASE production facility in Wichita, USA, the TV450B compact track loader is an industry fixture. Tough and rugged, it performs tasks such as digging, loading, and dumping in commercial and residential construction activities as well  as landscaping. This custom-designed CASE TV450B compact track loader is the first off the line and is the same as the one destined for use at the ranch of Metallica frontman and co-founder James Hetfield. Hetfield commissioned the design as part of an equipment supply agreement with the CASE brand in 2024. For collectors or dirt movers alike, this auction is a chance to own CASE and Metallica history. 

Purple Wave Auction, the leading online, no-reserve equipment auction platform, is hosting the auction, which runs through December 17, and 100% of the final sale price goes directly to All Within My Hands and its Metallica Scholars Initiative. Purple Wave is also donating the 10% buyer’s premium so that every dollar goes to the cause. Register for free, search “Hetskid” and start bidding today at purplewave.com.
