As Bad Suns bask in the infinite joy emanating from their new EP, the six-track collection is more than meets the eye. In the creative universe of Christo Bowman, the visionary force of the group alongside Gavin Bennett (bass) and Miles Morris (drums), the group paints an ocean of emotions across each song, musing in on sorrow, pain, and joy.

Say Anything are back together and have released a brand new track, “Psyche!” Today. They are a band that have always done things differently than everyone else. They stuck out like a sore thumb in the scene since their inception in a beautifully unique and transparently broken way. Max Bemis is a genius to say the least and you won’t find another project quite like his. Hell, their first full-length album, …Is A Real Boy, was intended to be a performative musical that transformed into a two-part melodic odyssey. With spoken word interludes, triumphant and drastic sonic changes within each… Read more »
