San Jose metalcore/hardcore juggernauts MUGSHOT will make their awaited return with the second album, All The Devils Are Here, on 27th June 2025 via Pure Noise Records. Produced by Randy Leboeuf (Kublai Kahn, The Acacia Strain, Gideon, Bad Omens), the massive 12 track record marks a new beginning for the incendiary band, following their 2023 EP, Cold Will, and nearly a decade after their riveting full-length Dull Boy. With a lineup consisting of Ringo Waterman (vocals), Michael Demko (guitar), Connor Haines (drums) and Ciro Abraham (bass), MUGSHOT have found a brutal groove, melding influences of metal and hardcore in a violent storm of unrelenting chaos. Featuring the previously released song ‘Vale of Tears‘ and the newly released dual singles ‘Die In Fear‘ and ‘Afore A Waking Nightmare,’ their long anticipated album ushers in a thrilling new wave of rage for metalcore fans. Commenting on the record, the band states: “This album is the most collaborative we have ever been as a band, every person had a major hand in creating whether that be musically, lyrically or both. It’s also the first album we haven’t self produced and having Randy Leboeuf on board was so invaluable, he really felt like a 5th member. Lyrically this is the most personal and pissed off we have ever been and we think everyone will be able to connect with many tracks on this record.“ As mentioned, MUGSHOT have revealed two new songs and combined video today, ‘Die In Fear‘ and ‘Afore A Waking Nightmare,’ further proof of the band’s renewed, vicious intensity. Adding about the songs, the band says: “‘Die in Fear’ and ‘Afore A Waking Nightmare’ were originally one song, but after recording it with our producer, Randy LeBoeuf, we felt that the song needed to be split into 2 separate tracks. ‘Die in Fear’s’ lyricism focuses on self-hatred — that sense of being a constant burden to those around you — while ‘Afore A Waking Nightmare’ is that same vitriolic hatred pointed at someone else who takes and takes but provides no value to anyone else.” ‘DIE IN FEAR’ + ‘AFORE A WAKING NIGHTMARE’ MUSIC VIDEO:

12. Next To Your Idols About MUGSHOT:
While most heavy bands mellow out—even if just a little—as they move through their life and career, Mugshot are not most heavy bands. Just under a decade on from the release of their acclaimed 2016 debut, Dull Boy, the San Jose, CA four-piece are back with All The Devils Are Here. The metalcore/hardcore outfit’s second studio full-length (and first for Pure Noise), from the moment it kicks off with opener “Die In Fear”, it’s clear that this is Mugshot at their most extreme and brutal, both musically and thematically. That shouldn’t really be a surprise. At least not to anyone who heard their 2023 EP, and debut Pure Noise release, Cold Will. The perfect re-introduction to the band—vocalist Ringo Waterman, guitarist Michael Demko, drummer Connor Haines and bassist Ciro Abraham—it was the perfect appetizer for the 12 intense and blisteringly violent songs that make up this record. While Cold Will was a set of songs centered around the abuse of power and authority from a more political point of view, those on All The Devils Are Here appeal more to personal human emotions. So rather than a call to arms, these songs deal with the consequences and impact external forces have on everyday people’s lives. Recorded in New Jersey with producer/engineer Randy Leboeuf (Kublai Kahn, The Acacia Strain, Gideon, Bad Omens – and not one of the people making the band pull their hair out), it’s the first Mugshot record not produced entirely by Haines. That led to a renewed energy in the studio that’s almost tangible when you hear these songs. It also sees Waterman fully settle into his role as vocalist, after joining the band in 2023. And while All The Devils Are Here doesn’t entirely represent a new era for the band, it does still signify and continue what Haines refers to as the “new vibe, new energy and new presence” surrounding and propelling the band since Waterman joined.
