KALAMITY KILLS Announces Debut Album Kalamity Kills (Expanded Edition), Arriving September 9th, 

Visualizer for “Afraid” Out Now
Watch “Afraid” HERE


KALAMITY KILLS continues their relentless ascent with the announcement of their self-titled debut album, Kalamity Kills (Expanded Edition), set for release September 9, 2025 on CD via their own label, PERO RECORDINGS. The announcement arrives with the release of a powerful visualizer available for hit single “Afraid” available HERE. The Expanded Edition of Kalamity Kills will feature not only new tracks, but alt. mixes as well! Hot on the heels of their Billboard Mainstream Rock and Mediabase Active Rock success with “Starry Skies (988)”—which spent 9 weeks in the Billboard Top 40 and 12 weeks on the Mediabase charts—KALAMITY KILLS channels their uncompromising energy into a fierce anthem that demands attention. Produced and mixed by Jamey Perrenot, “Afraid” is a bold declaration of resilience and empowerment, driven by razor-sharp guitar riffs, searing vocals, and lyrics that defy submission. Written by Perrenot and Jamie Rowe, the track introduces Julia Lauren Bullock, KALAMITY KILLS’ dynamic new bassist, whose harmonies and background vocals bring a fresh intensity to the band’s sonic identity. While Rob Bodley brings the power on drums in the live lineup, the studio version features a thunderous performance by Ray Luzier of KORN, further elevating the track’s urgency and fire. The expanded CD edition of Kalamity Kills, which includes “Afraid” and additional exclusive material, will be available in limited quantities starting September 9. A candy apple red vinyl edition is scheduled to follow in April 2026.

About KALAMITY KILLS

KALAMITY KILLS is a hard rock band forged in the heart of East Nashville, Tennessee. Formed in 2022 by vocalist Jamie Rowe and guitarist/producer Jamey Perrenot, the band emerged from the ashes of a solo project into a fully realized sonic assault—fueled by raw emotion, modern aggression, and a deep respect for rock’s roots. With a sound that fuses the swagger of classic hard rock with the intensity and polish of modern metal, KALAMITY KILLS strikes a rare balance between power and vulnerability.

Best known for their debut self-titled album Kalamity Kills, the band quickly turned heads thanks to high-profile collaborations with members of KORN, 3 DOORS DOWN, LA GUNS, CONQUER DIVIDE, and UNDEROATH. Their music has earned national airplay on SIRIUSXM’s Octane, landed on the Billboard Active Rock charts, and crossed over into viral success without ever chasing trends.

More than just a studio project, KALAMITY KILLS is a growing force with a full live lineup, including bassist/vocalist Julia Lauren Bullock and drummer Rob Bodley. Their songs—ranging from explosive anthems to brutally honest ballads—tackle themes of faith, failure, hypocrisy, redemption, and the messy beauty of being human.

KALAMITY KILLS is for the outsiders, the misfits, the ones who’ve been burned and are still standing. Loud. Unapologetic. Unforgettable.

Ukrainian modern metal powerhouse JINJER has dropped a crushing new music video for “Fast Draw”, a standout track from their critically acclaimed latest album, Duél. Featuring explosive live footage from their recent European tours alongside metal legends Sepultura, as well as highlights from last summer’s festival circuit, the video offers a front-row seat to JINJER’s blistering live energy and commanding stage presence.
 
Renowned for their genre-defying sound and electrifying performances, JINJER continues to rise as one of the most dynamic forces in today’s metal landscape. The band spent 2024 on the road with Sepultura as part of the iconic group’s farewell world tour, and 2025 has already seen them bring their ferocity to stages across Asia and Australia. This summer, JINJER will storm North America as direct support for Babymetal, with additional high-profile festival appearances set for Download UKGraspop Metal Meeting, and more.

Watch the official video for “Fast Draw” now and experience the unrelenting power of JINJER – live and unleashed.

For latest album Duél – which features multiple music videos with multi-millions of combined views to date and broke into the charts at #2 US Hard Music Albums, #6 US Current Rock Albums, #2 CAN Hard Music Albums, #3 France Metal, #7 UK Rock & Metal and beyond – the band once again collaborated with accomplished producer Max Morton, who co-produced, mixed and mastered the album. This new masterwork lives up to JINJER’s reputation as metal visionaries, proving that they defy barriers of influence while charging a path entirely of their own making. This is proven with songs like “Rogue”, “Green Serpent” and “Dark Bile”, conjuring astonishing heaviness unlike ever before. Followers of world-class screamer and multifaceted singer Tatiana Shmayluk will revel in her display of unrelenting power and gripping emotional delivery as early as album opener “Tantrum” , while cruel stunners like “Fast Draw” and “Duél” showcase the acclaimed technical craftwork of drummer Vlad Ulasevich, guitarist Roman Ibramkhalilov and bassist Eugene Abdukhanov.
 
Eugene Abdukhanov, JINJER bassist on the new album:
After all the releases we’ve made, finally having Duél in our hands and ready to be shared with the world, makes us very proud that our band still hasn’t run out of creativity and inspiration. The fact that we still challenge ourselves to release the best music we have ever made with each new release, is what keeps JINJER moving forward. This album was the longest songwriting process we’ve ever had and it took almost two years to complete. We worked very hard with every free minute we weren’t on tour, recording demos over and over again and always searching for the perfect sound for guitars, bass and drums. It was also the first time that Tatiana did vocal pre-productions, so it’s safe to say that none of our releases were so well thought out and calculated as this one. It pulverizes the boundaries of the modern progressive metal genre but still remains sophisticated, exciting and extreme all at the same time. We took up the challenge to expand our musical horizons even wider than before in order to cement Duél to be the next step in JINJER‘s musical growth and hopefully the evolution of metal music in general.”
