These 2025 survival deals are moving fast and many will not be restocked in time. Watch closely, take notes, and make your moves while you still have the opportunity. ________________________________________

IT’S HERE. The West Texas rockers, Treaty Oak Revival, promised fans a record this year, but given that we are in the final stretch of 2025, many feared their timeline had been pushed back. At the start of 2025, the group shared an image of themselves in the studio working on their third LP. Fans were hoping new music would come near spring or summer, given the January teaser, but the months kept passing, and there was no announcement of an album or any other information about its status. Fans then became nervous that they would not get a new TOR album in 2025 after the sudden departure of their bass player, Andrew Carey. However, despite these challenges, this year, they followed through with their promise, announcing their third studio album, West Texas Degenerate, last month. Today, West Texas Degenerate was gifted to fans, and the two-year wait between this record and their last LP, Have A Nice Day, was well worth the wait. “The point of this record was to show growth and what that means. Overcoming addiction, finding love, just stuff we haven’t really talked about in our songs. We come from a small town where, when you were young, it was drinking and partying and having a good time, and not really caring about the world or having any responsibility. Eventually, you get thrown into the real world, and you realize that the real world doesn’t care about your plans. You’re going to assimilate whether you want to or not.” Frontman Sam Canty shared with Rolling Stone. The new album features Muscadine Bloodline, William Clark Green, and more, and contains 14 tracks, including the previously released singles “Bad State of Mind” and “Happy Face.”  “Happy Face” has already earned over 73 million streams on Spotify alone, and “Bad State of Mind” has 57 million streams on the same platform. Fans were thrilled to see the cult favorites on the tracklist, which Canty was very intentional about. The two songs represent the split of the record, from a heavy A-side to a more lighthearted, growth-focused B-side.  The first side features “Port A” which discusses Canty’s last spring break, getting into trouble and indulging in illicit substances: “This is a song I wrote about my last spring break. I didn’t have enough money to go somewhere cool, so I went somewhere called Port Aransas, Texas.” The heavier side of the album also features the title track, a gritty ode to West Texas by William Clark Green, highlighting the blue-collar way of life that much of the band was living. The money they were making came with a list of issues that led them to become a “West Texas Degenerate.” The second half of the record highlights that feeling of being thrown into the adult world, with tracks like “Misery” featuring Muscadine Bloodline, “Naders,” and the heartbreaker “Blue Star.” Treaty Oak Revival struck gold with West Texas Degenerate, flawlessly expanding upon their gritty southern rock twangs and highlighting their co-writing ability by collaborating with some of their friends. This record will quickly find itself on repeat. I can’t wait to see the energy in these songs on stage. Fire up a few early favorites while you’re here: “Port A” “Blue Star” “Misery” “West Texas Degenerate”  The post Treaty Oak Revival Throws Down On New Record, ‘West Texas Degenerate’ first appeared on Whiskey Riff.

Not a bad strategy. Before both Zach Bryan and Morgan Wallen plotted their respective massive international tours over the past few weeks, Luke Combs got the party started with the announcement of his giant My Kinda Saturday Night Tour. Covering two continents, eight countries and including 16 shows, the tour features stops across iconic stadiums across the nation, including the likes of Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin, Neyland Stadium in Knoxville, Tennessee, Notre Dame Stadium in South Bend, Indiana, and Wembley Stadium in London, U.K. Beyond the high profile stadium stops, another key feature of the My Kinda Saturday Night Tour is the star-studded set of openers. If you’ve been following Combs in any capacity, especially touring-wise, over the past couple years, you’re keen to the fact that the “Beautiful Crazy” singer has a long-history of pulling some of the most exciting young, independent artists along with the likes of fellow superstars. Employing the likes of Zach Bryan, Flatland Cavalry, 49 Winchester, Cody Jinks, Charles Wesley Godwin and more, Combs has been ahead of the curve when it comes to finding young talent early. This time around on the My Kinda Saturday Night Tour, Combs is still continuing the trend of picking up early on young, talented artists with the likes of Ty Myers, The Castellows, Thelma & James and more. With that being said, however, Combs is also packing the supporting cast with superstars and long-time headliners such as Dierks Bentley and Thomas Rhett, in addition to the likes of Irish pop rock band, The Script. Of course, this selection of openers is an intentional move from Combs, who hand-picks each and every one of his openers as of late. In a recent interview with Cody Allan and Sirius XM, Combs would reconfirm the fact that he once again chose all the aforementioned openers for the My Kinda Saturday Night Tour, noting the fact that his management and label don’t pick for him and the artists selected are those whom he’s a fan of already. “[They’re] guys who I think are great guys and guys that I’m a fan of first and foremost.  I pick all my openers. People ask me that all the time, like, ‘Do you get to pick the openers?’ And I’m like, ‘Well, yeah, I get to pick the openers for sure.’ It’s not like someone’s like, ‘You’re taking this guy.’ I guess there maybe are people that don’t really care about the openers. I just can’t image that, but I guess there are maybe people that just put whoever on there.” The North Carolina native would follow that up by diving deeper into the selection process of the aforementioned Bentley and Rhett, both of whom have a long-history of successful headlining tours at arenas, amphitheaters and more. For Combs, the fact that both Bentley and Rhett have the established stage presence to put on a great headlining show forces him to push himself harder to deliver a good set for the audience. Noting in particular just how good the “What Was I Thinkin'” singer is, Combs would praise Bentley before remarking that you can’t phone a performance after a set from him. “But for me, I really like to curate the experience. I know Dierks puts on a great show. I know TR [Thomas Rhett] puts on a great show, like I know these things. I can know, if I’m out there, the crowd’s gonna be fired up. And it’s gonna make me work to have to put on a great show. You know, you can’t phone it in playing after Dierks. You can’t phone it in playing after TR. The crowd’s gonna be expecting a certain level, so it keeps me honest and that’s exciting.  As a two-time CMA Entertainer of the Year, it’s safe to say that Combs has his live performances down to a science at this point. With that being said, however, it’s fascinating to see his approach to his massive My Kinda Saturday Night Tour this time around.

Late last night President Trump said that he is permanently pausing migration from all Third World countries in order to let the US taxpayer recover from both the heavy financial burden and . . .

CLAIM: In November 2025, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security detained White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt's brother's ex-fiancee, Brazilian national Bruna Caroline Ferreira. RATING: TRUE, DHS confirmed the detainment to several news media outlets, and we found an individual with her name and birthplace housed in a Louisiana ICE facility as well as primary evidence corroborating claims regarding the relationship between Karoline Leavitt's brother, Michael Leavitt, and Ferreira — though Ferreira's sister and Michael Leavitt both reportedly said the relationship ended years earlier.

Reactions are continuing to pour in after the death of National Guard member Sarah Beckstrom from injuries sustained during Wednesday's shooting near the White House in Washington, D.C., including from President Donald Trump, who is promising an immigration crackdown.

Though many have condemned the use of tear gas on protestors, the Chemical Weapons Convention and the Geneva Convention both contain exceptions for "domestic law enforcement purposes." In the Geneva Convention, the ban on "employing asphyxiating, poisonous or other gases, and all analogous liquids, materials or devices" against another person or group "does not apply to situations of internal disturbances and tensions, such as riots."AllSides highlights content from Gigafact, a network of newsrooms that respond to online claims.
