Mugshot – to return with the second album, All The Devils Are Here + have just released duel singles

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. 

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.

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.

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.
