Sleeps While Walking – Hollowman
Chicago ain’t sleepwalking – it’s wide awake and snarling. Sleeps While Walking, rightly crowned “the real deal” by A&R Factory, just dropped a new payload of pure, uncut tension. Their single “Hollowman” is a skilfully crafted assault on the senses, a definitive masterclass in their self-styled grungegaze. This track abducts your skull, stares you down, and forces you to […]
Spwci – Flow
Kill off the algorithm sludge clogging your feed – something real is brewing in the Welsh mist. Spwci (yeah, pronounce it “spooky,” it fits) released “Flow“ on May 29th, and trust us, you wanna be braced for impact. This is honesty wrapped in riffs that bite and a rhythm section with terrifyingly good instincts. Consider this your early warning […]
Think Denim, dad – Well (Ain’t It Fun)
Levi Parent, Belgium’s low-key sonic warlock operating as Think Denim, dad, just exploded a grenade of pure, twang-drenched brilliance with “Well (Ain’t It Fun)” (released June 6th). This isn’t like the background coffee-shop indie—it’s a hypnotic, guitar-glazed earworm that sinks its fangs DEEP and doesn’t let go. Parent is NOT strumming chords; he’s conducting musical electricity in a denim vest. […]
Goddamn Wolves – I Hate This Song
Raleigh’s finest, Goddamn Wolves, are tearing it up with “I Hate This Song”. Don’t let the title fool you – this track is a blistering, infectious shot of pure fire that’ll have you headbanging ’til your neck hurts. It’s the sound of a band hitting its absolute stride, seven years deep and tighter than a […]
Brood22 – this again
Portland’s moody slowcore force Brood22 is in return, and holy cow, their new single, “this again”, is a mood, a vibe, a goddamn atmospheric trip that’ll knock you on your ass with its intensity. Forget shredding guitars and breakneck drums; this project uses patience and tone like a sonic sledgehammer, leaving you reeling long after the last fuzzy […]
La Versión Extendida de las Cosas – Collie
You have to hear La Versión Extendida de las Cosas. These Costa Rican rockers aren’t playing with their new track “Collie”, their first fully independent banger. No record label suits telling them what to do – this is genuine, real rock straight from them. These guys have been slugging it out for over a decade, and “Collie” […]
Aggressive Soccer Moms – Crossroads
Alright, blast the amps! Stockholm’s engine, Aggressive Soccer Moms, is roaring back to life with their twenty-fourth single, “Crossroads”, and these old dogs are proving they’ve still got teeth, serving up industrial-strength noise. Forget retirement homes; Anders Bergström, Thomas Wahlström, and Stefan Wistrand are too busy rocking stages and reminding everyone what real punk sounds like. Kicking […]
Barry J Walsh – Suddenly June
Barry J Walsh, the Irish songsmith, is lighting the fuse on a summer kaboom with “Suddenly June.” This track comes hot on the heels of last year’s hits “Rescue Me” and “The Sound” – songs that had radio DJs wearing out their play buttons. Walsh is proving he’s got the chops when it comes to […]
Ava Valianti – Distant
Ava Valianti, this Massachusetts-born firecracker, ain’t here to whisper sweet nothings in your ear. Nah, she’s here to detonate your brainstem through your stereo! At just 15, this indie badass slams down her sixth single, “Distant” (out May 23), a freaking kaboom of stage-diving adrenaline mixed with the throat-grab of growing up and losing your childhood crew. […]
Para Lia – Neverland
Strap in, because Para Lia isn’t playing nice. Their latest single, “Neverland“, is a face-melting monster that’ll grip you by the short hairs. This German duo—René Methner (lead vocals, guitars, driving the lyrical daggers) and Cindy (vocals, adding spectral dimension)—they’ve cooked up something wicked smart and loud as hell. From the word go, “Neverland” establishes its raw power. It […]
Wotts – Better Days
Wotts is back, baby! This Canadian duo is lighting up the scene with their latest, “Better Days”, and holy smokes, it’s a goddamn knockout. Serving as the second single off their imminent EP FLANKI (drop date TBA, but get hyped!), this is a full-blown, sun-drenched, late-night experience. Forget wallowing; Wotts takes all those feelings and wraps them up in a […]
Scott Yoder – Never Be Another Day
Scott Yoder‘s new track “Never Be Another Day” is like getting zapped by a bolt from the blue – it’s real as bleeding fingers, it’s punch-to-the-chest intense, and it pins you against the wall with power chords. This tune, off his upcoming solo album Lover, Let Me In (dropping September 5th), is zinging with that […]
