River Town Saints – the award-winning Canadian country band – and Kaylee Bell – Australasia’s most streamed female country artist – have released “Lying in Bed,” available today via Sakamoto Music (LISTEN HERE). “Lying in Bed” is a track that details how we can feel like an ocean apart despite being in the same bed as someone, when the connection appears lost. A music video is in the works, to premiere in the coming weeks, and the song will be worked in both the Canadian and Australian markets.

The Metal Crushes All Tour Desecrates Vancouver
The Metal Crushes All Tour descended upon the PNE Forum in Vancouver like a berserker raid, leaving no eardrum unscathed. Amon Amarth, Cannibal Corpse, Obituary, and Frozen Soul forged an unholy alliance of metal mastery, transforming the venue into a cathedral of headbanging worship.
From the moment the doors swung open, the air crackled with anticipation, and the crowd surged forward with rabid energy. Eager metalheads from all walks of life mingled in anticipation, ready to sacrifice their comfort to pay homage to their musical overlords.
As Frozen Soul took the stage, the icy grip of their glacial riffs shook the entire venue sending shivers down spines and setting the tone for the night.
Obviously excited to return back to one of their favourite Canadian scenes, the band encouraged mayhem and feasted off their fans energy. The pit erupted into chaos, with over 300 bodies colliding in a whirlwind of limbs and one of the biggest circle pits I have ever seen.
Obituary followed suit, delivering a masterclass in old-school brutality. Their relentless assault of crushing riffs and grueling vocals ignited a frenzy of moshing madness.
Several mosh pits opened like gaping maws, devouring anyone foolish enough to stray too close to the edge.
But, to the surprise of no one, it was Cannibal Corpse who truly brought the carnage to the forefront. With a ferocity unmatched, they unleashed a barrage of sonic ruthlessness that left no skull uncrushed.
The crowd, caught in the grip of their gore-stricken metal fury, responded with an intensity that bordered on madness. Bodies soared overhead as crowd surfers rode the waves of chaos, while the audience lovingly berated each other grinning from ear to ear.
And then came the Viking horde known as Amon Amarth, whose melodic death metal anthems struck like thunderbolts from the gods.
Horns raised in salutations, the floor opened up to welcome a hoard of rowing fans, singing at the top of their lungs. Everywhere you looked, you would see someone adorning ruins, fake swords or chainmail, a true testament to the unity forged by the power of this iconic band.
In the end, as the final chords faded into the night, the Metal Crushes All Tour had left its mark on Vancouver, and for those lucky enough to bear witness, it was a night that would be remembered with reverence and awe for years to come.
