Parkway Drive have released a new one-off single entitled 'Sacred' — their first new song in three years.

Big riffs are complemented by overarching lead melodies that give the track a symphonic flare; meanwhile, McCall shouts his words with a grizzled snarl.

'Our lives and the way we exist in the world has been pushed further and further through the lenses and frames of negativity and hopelessness,' McCall said of the song in a press release. 'Obsession with everything we lack, everything we hate, everyone we blame, everything that keeps us down. We sell the unique parts of us most precious just to buy back manufactured pieces of self in order that we may feel whole again. 'Sacred' is our identity. 'Sacred' is our time. Never lose sight and never lose hope.'
The arrival of the track is timely, as Parkway Drive are set to co-headline the 'Summer of Loud' metalcore tour in the coming months. Beartooth, I Prevail, and Killswitch Engage are also on the bill for the massive tour package, which launches on June 21st in West Palm Beach, Florida. Get tickets here.

Google, Apple lose 'Fortnite' anticompetition lawsuit in Australia
On Tuesday, an Australian judge ruled that Google and Apple's dominance over the in-store app marketplace was anticompetitive. Epic Games called it a "win" for Australian developers and consumers as the popular games Fortnite is set to return to iOS platforms in Australia. Photo by Keizo Mori/UPI | License Photo Aug. 12 (UPI) -- Epic Games said its popular Fortnite video game will return to iOS platforms in Australia after its high court ruled on Tuesday that Google and Apple's dominance over the digital marketplace was anticompetitive. Australian federal Judge Jonathan Beach ruled that both Google and Apple had misused their positions as the dominant players over in-app purchase commissions that included fees of up to 30% to cut back on competition. On Tuesday, CEO Tim Sweeney said Fortnite will return to iPhones along with its Epic Games Store "at a date to be determined." In a social media post, Sweeney called the ruling a "victory" in Australian antitrust proceedings via its nearly five-year-long legal battle against the tech giants. Apple, the judge said, engaged in conduct that had the purpose or was "likely to have or had the effect of substantially lessening competition in such markets." He added that Google's conduct "had or is likely to have had the effect of substantially lessening competition in such markets." Beach pointed to Apple's specific conduct that "prevents prohibits the direct downloading or sideloading of native apps and conduct that prevents or prohibits developers and users from using alternative payment methods." But he rejected the accusations by Epic that the two companies had otherwise violated consumer laws and exhibited "unconscionable conduct." Epic added that officials still need to sift through the nearly 2,000 pages of legal documents stemming from Tuesday's ruling. Both Google and Apple officials "welcomed" Beach's rejection of certain parts of the ruling, but disagreed with the other aspects of Epic's characterizations and court victory. Google spokesperson Dan Jackson said it disagreed with the "court's characterization of our billing policies and practices." He added it included "findings regarding some of our historical partnerships, which were all shaped in a fiercely competitive mobile landscape on behalf of users and developers," he told The Verge. "We will review the full decision when we receive it and assess our next steps," Jackson said. The legal battle began in 2020 when Apple and Google kicked Fortnite off its app stores for bypassing their payment systems with its own. Legal action against Apple that year was followed by a 2021 lawsuit against Google Australia. Epic has filed lawsuits against both Apple and Google around the world in courts in Britain over in Europe and the United States. The California-based U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in July upheld a 2023 jury verdict against Google, saying it violated state and federal antitrust law by holding an illegal monopoly in Android app distribution and billing, and that Google unlawfully tied its billing system to Play Store. On Tuesday, Apple officials stated the global tech giant faced "fierce competition in every market" where it operates. "We continuously invest and innovate to make the App Store the safest place for users to get apps and a great business opportunity for developers in Australia and around the world," Apple told ABC in Australia.

Dog Has 'Very Small Bit of Irritation' on Paw Pad, She Doesn't Cope Well
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A rescue dog has gone viral for her over-the-top reaction to a paw injury, charming TikTok viewers with her theatrics. Maggie Wachter (@imdoinggreatttt), 39, from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, shared footage of her 1-year-old dog Rosie lying with her leg pointed dramatically in the air after hurting her paw during a game of fetch. The video has garnered over 66,200 likes and more than 367,500 views on TikTok. "We were visiting my parents in New Jersey who have a large yard, and she played fetch for a few hours," Wachter, a nurse, told Newsweek. "Their yard is grass with some areas of dirt and brush. The next morning, after the day of play, she wouldn't get out of bed. I put her on the floor and she was limping so dramatically! I was so worried. I inspected her hurt foot and between her toes was a pea-sized reddened rash, likely a friction rash from all the running in the grass and dirt." From left: Rosie the dog sulks on a bed with her paw-pad injury. From left: Rosie the dog sulks on a bed with her paw-pad injury. @imdoinggreatttt/@imdoinggreatttt Wachter said that Rosie was adopted last August from MatchDog Rescue, a New Jersey shelter, after being saved from a high-kill facility. Wachter described Rosie as a mix of Chihuahua, miniature pinscher, Australian cattle dog, and a little bit of pug. "She has a very, very small bit of irritation between her pads and she's not taking it well," Wachter wrote as the text overlay of the video. Rosie, she said, is exceptionally smart—she rings a bell to go outside, presses a button to ask for treats, and knows around 10 commands. Fetch is Rosie's favorite game, and it was during an enthusiastic play session that she injured her paw. Wachter said their vet advised keeping Rosie indoors, off her foot, and using medicated wipes once per day until she was walking without discomfort or licking her paw. After two days, the dog was back on all fours. Wachter said she hopes Rosie's viral fame will encourage people to consider adopting rather than shopping for pets. "She has brought so much love and joy to our family, and now to millions on the internet," she added. TikTok users have been quick to react to Rosie's Oscar-worthy limp. "Omg [oh my God], the only cure for that is a pup cup I've heard!" one person wrote. "This poor baby. Hims deserves all the kissies. Also, maybe he should get nominated for an Oscar," a third added. "Oh, the suffering! Please cuddle that baby," someone else commented. "She said the vet called and prescribed me 48 hours of cuddling, 1000 kisses and unlimited cheese," posted Abigail.

Nobody Asked for Pasta in an Omakase, Until Ryokou Came Swinging
Henna Bakshi is the Regional Editor, South at Eater and an award-winning food and wine journalist with a WSET (Wine and Spirits Education Trust) Level 3 degree. She oversees coverage in Atlanta, Miami, New Orleans, the Carolinas, and Nashville. Welcome to another installment of Scene Report in Atlanta, a new column in which Eater captures the vibe of a notable Atlanta restaurant at a specific moment in time. Midway through Ryokou's omakase courses, chef Paul Gutting begins plating what looks like an exquisite plate of pasta. No way, pasta at an omakase joint, I thought. It's a mushroom capellini with miso and shaved Australian winter black truffles, folded into just a couple mouthfuls of rich, thin noodles. Gutting explains that chef Leonard Yu, of one-Michelin-starred Omakase Table and owner of Ryokou, worked at Italian restaurants early in his career, including Ritz-Carlton Hotels in Jakarta and Kuala Lumpur. He also explains that Japan has a love affair with Italian cuisine, called Itameshi, and some of the best Italian food is found in the island country. The course is a showstopping ode to this discovery. The woman seated beside me is brought to tears on the first bite. Ryokou is Yu's new and casual iteration of omakase, packed with pasta and rare sake pairings. Here's why it's a scene. The 'zen garden' introductory course with grilled eel, horsehair crab, tuna, and corn and scallops, paired with Born 'Gold' Muroka Junmai Daiginjo sake. Henna Bakshi The atmosphere Ryokou is a hidden gem in Adair Park. You head inside an industrial building where tall candles light a black hallway, and wood-paneled doors open up into the cozy yet stylish restaurant. The exposed brick wall behind the omakase counter is speckled with ceramic gold and white koi fish. The lights are dim, and the staff is immediately warm and welcoming. The place setting is a glittery gold placemat with chopsticks on the ready. Gutting has his head down, slicing and scorching eel for the first preparation. The 10-seat omakase counter at Ryokou. Brandon Amato Insider tip: Visit the bathroom. It's one of the most luxurious experiences in town: heated toilet seat, beautiful marble sink, matching black toilet paper with the rest of the decor, candlelit, and rolled hand towels. These details are a wonderful respite. The food The two-hour, eight-course omakase ($205) is a trip through different regions of Japan. The newly launched summer menu features the pasta course, in addition to tuna nigiri, grilled fish, and A5 wagyu strip loin. The akami zuke tuna nigiri (the second in the lineup) is a soy sauce marinated cut that is equal parts velvet and salt — a standout. Gutting explains that soy sauce was used as a preservation liquid before refrigeration, and the marination stems from that ritual. Nimono with kinmedai, a traditional Japanese comfort dish served in a flavorful broth. Henna Bakshi Tuna nigiri with chu-toro, akami zuke, and otoro cuts. Henna Bakshi The somen (thin Japanese noodles) in broth with shrimp, clams, and ice plant is another refreshing treat. The tiny ice plant packed a powerful salty punch, and the broth is diluted with ice from Japan. No, really. The chefs flew in ice from Japan for its mineral content — a luxury, though one with a big carbon footprint in shipping. Yu promises it changes the flavor of the broth significantly, though I'd argue ice from Georgia may just be good enough for us Georgia folk. The pacing of the food is punctual, you don't feel rushed, and at the same time, don't feel plastered to your chair for hours on end. The service on both sides of the omakase counter is flawless: anticipating needs when you have to scoot your chair, clearing glasses before the next course arrives, and offering ample, friendly insights into the cuisine and ingredients. The drinks Oh, the drinks. Get the sake pairing. Period. Beverage manager TC McNeill expertly pairs beautiful junmai daiginjos and koshu sakes with the courses. The Boken 'Ringo' Junmai, the award-winning sake you may see more of on Atlanta menus, has vibrant notes of green apple and is paired with the icy somen. It's light-bodied and perfect for those stepping into trying sake. The Boken 'Ringo' Junmai sake has vibrant notes of green apple and is paired with the icy somen.

It is paired with the nigiri, and its earthy florality plays with the different cuts of fish. 'Lean in closer, because this is a secret drink you must seek out.' — Henna Bakshi, Eater regional editor, South The piece de resistance is the sake paired with dessert. Lean in closer, because this is a secret drink you must seek out. A light panna cotta with strawberries is paired with Kanbara 'Ancient Treasure' Junmai Genshu Koshu — a 12-year-aged sweet sake with notes of dark honey, nuts, figs, and a finish of toasted sesame oil. Uff. It is a layered beauty, and one worth sitting with. The pairing is so right, you could practically pour the sake on the dessert. McNeil shares this caramel-colored sake with a big smile in small o-choko cups. The Kanbara 'Ancient Treasure' Junmai Genshu Koshu is a 12-year-aged sweet sake with notes of dark honey, nuts, figs, and a finish of toasted sesame oil. Henna Bakshi The sweet sake is served in a small cup, called o-choko, alongside a light panna cotta with strawberries. Henna Bakshi Insider tip: The non-alcoholic options are great, too. They include hot teas, and a stunning sparkling jasmine, white, and Darjeeling blend from Copenhagen Sparkling Tea Company. Why go here Ryokou is an express, high-level omakase experience, if you want eight courses in two hours. (If you want more, go to the newly relocated Omakase Table in Buckhead, with 20 courses for $295.) The menu is concise, and tells a story through Italian influences, seasonal ingredients, and Gutting's ideas shine while tipping his hat to Yu. It is a great addition to Adair Park, and an experience worth scouting out.
