ACCVSED released brand new single Make Sure It Hurts

German heavy hitters ACCVSED are back with a vengeance. Their latest single, “Make Sure It Hurts,” is a no-holds-barred gut punch of fury, following hot on the heels of their breakout tracks that have been tearing through the underground metal scene.After turning heads with their previous hit singles — each one sharper and more unapologetic than the last — “Make Sure It Hurts” feels like the natural next step in ACCVSED’s evolution. Armed with spine-snapping breakdowns, razor-wire riffs, and vocals soaked in venom, the band makes it clear: they’re not here to play nice.The track blends their signature blend of metalcore chaos with a calculated aggression that cuts deeper than ever before. Lyrically raw and emotionally charged, it taps into themes of betrayal, rage, and the catharsis that comes from embracing pain rather than running from it.With this release, ACCVSED further solidify their place as one of Germany’s most uncompromising new voices in heavy music. If the previous singles lit the fuse, “Make Sure It Hurts” is the full-on detonation.Turn it up, bite down, and let it hurt.

Marilyn Manson’s U.K. Tour Opener Canceled Over Online Protests And Criticism From Government Officials

Marilyn Manson's U.K. tour opening show in Brighton, England on October 29 was canceled following protests from government officials and the No Stage for Abusers campaign. The cancellation came after a series of allegations of domestic abuse and sexual assault surfaced against Manson, with over a dozen women, including Evan Rachel Wood and Esmé Bianco, accusing him of abuse. Despite Manson's denial and the Los Angeles prosecutors dropping the case, the online campaign and the efforts of Green Party MP Siân Berry led the cause to have the shock rocker’s Brighton Centre show called off. Additionally, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council leader Millie Earl is also calling for a possible cancellation of Manson's show at Bournemouth International Centre on October 31. “I don’t feel Marilyn Manson reflects the values we have in BCP,” she wrote. “So I have asked that BH Live reconsider hosting Marilyn Manson later this year.” (Rolling Stone)
