Multi-platinum rap-rock powerhouse Hollywood Undead return with their blistering new single “All My Friends” featuring Jeris Johnson, a fierce, cinematic anthem that further ignites the band’s aggressive new era with Sumerian Records. Packed with razor-sharp lyricism, massive hooks, and the chaotic energy that has defined the band for nearly two decades, the track arrives as another statement release from one of modern rock’s most resilient acts.
Blending crushing guitars, rapid-fire verses, and towering choruses, “All My Friends” pushes Hollywood Undead deeper into a darker and more theatrical soundscape. The song explores themes of fame, pressure, inner demons, and survival, wrapping vivid imagery of monsters, holy water, helicopters, burning skies, and collapsing realities into an adrenaline-fueled anthem built for massive festival crowds and late-night chaos alike.
Jeris Johnson injects the track with an additional layer of menace and intensity, helping elevate the band’s already explosive fusion of hip-hop, rock, and metal into even heavier territory. The collaboration feels both natural and volatile, showcasing two artists unafraid to blur genre boundaries while delivering something unapologetically loud and cinematic.
“All My Friends” continues the momentum Hollywood Undead have built since launching their partnership with Sumerian Records, following the successful releases of “Hollywood Forever,” “SAVIOR,” and “1x1.” Together, the singles have marked a revitalized chapter for the band — one that has seen the return of their iconic masks, a renewed creative focus, and some of the strongest fan response of their career.
Their first Sumerian release, “Hollywood Forever,” arrived in October 2024 and quickly became a breakout success, earning more than 20 million cross-platform streams while climbing to #18 on Active Rock radio charts. In 2025, “SAVIOR” showcased a more emotionally vulnerable side of the band, while March 2026’s “1x1” delivered a crushing nod to Slayer through its use of the legendary “Raining Blood” riff, proving Hollywood Undead still thrive on unpredictability and reinvention.
Now, nearly seventeen years removed from the release of their landmark debut album Swan Songs, Hollywood Undead continue to evolve without losing the raw aggression and rebellious spirit that first launched them into the spotlight during the MySpace era. With billions of streams, sold-out tours across the globe, and a fanbase that has remained fiercely loyal throughout every era of the band, they continue to stand as one of alternative music’s most enduring and innovative forces.
The release of “All My Friends” also arrives just ahead of an extensive international festival run that will see the band bring their high-energy live show to audiences across North America and Europe throughout the summer. Hollywood Undead are set to appear at some of rock and metal’s biggest festivals, including Welcome to Rockville, Download Festival, Rock am Ring, Rock im Park, Nova Rock, Graspop Metal Meeting, Inkcarceration Festival, and Rocklahoma.
From festival main stages to intimate club venues across Europe, the upcoming run further solidifies Hollywood Undead’s place as one of modern rock’s most explosive live acts — a band still evolving, still dangerous, and still refusing to slow down.
