Following the release of her debut solo single, Jen Razavi, the co-frontwoman of The Bombpops, has issued the accompanying music video for “Saw In Half.” Razavi‘s debut track, produced by Will Yip (known for his work with Circa Survive, Turnstile, and La Dispute), is a hauntingly atmospheric showcase that beautifully draws out her tenderness and vulnerability. Further cementing the line, “Lovely assistant to the stage/Here’s a trick, we call it heartbreak,” the cinematic visual for “Saw In Half” metaphorically analyzes a failing relationship comparing it to the toxic one-sideness between a magician and their assistant. Razavi is acting as the… Read more »

Somewhere in the depths of a muggy basement or a beatdown garage, the next greatest artist is crafting, writing, and recording—chronicling the soundtrack of the next… Read more »
Canadian alt-rockers, The Beaches have dropped a brand new single today, “Blame Brett” and announced their forthcoming sophomore LP Blame My Ex due out September 15th. The new track is extremely cheeky to say the least. The Beaches give a new perspective to the break-up anthem by being equally parts funny, mournful, and scathing.

They continue with the line “Don’t blame me, blame Brett / Blame my ex”. Pretty hilarious right?… Read more »
