Worried you won’t be able to land a ticket to your favorite concert this summer? Not to fear, the music industry has a club you can join. For a small fee.

The artist fan clubs offer an increased chance – but no guarantee – of getting a concert… Read more »

As the year comes to a close, and we bid “farewell” (and maybe “fuck you”) to 2024, it’s the perfect time to look back and celebrate the albums that shaped the soundtrack of the last 12 months. From deeply personal indie projects to genre-defining heavy hitters, 2024 was filled with groundbreaking releases that reminded us of the power of music and, more importantly, of the alternative community. With so much incredible work to choose from, narrowing down our favorites was a daunting task. This year, the quality and variety of music made it impossible to rank our picks—every album brought… Read more »

New track “You Hear Yes” features the raw, rage-fueled sonics of both Mannequin Pussy and Scowl—two prominent acts in the hardcore and punk scenes. The lyrics describe what every woman and non-binary person know all too well. The artists sing, “I’m sick of being stared when I’m alone/I’m sick of being scared on my walk home/I’m sick of being trapped by what you impose/You hear yes, when I say… Read more »
If you loved Zoe Ko‘s “DIRT” when it dropped in March, you are going to love that it’s getting a filthy treatment. The artist teamed up with Sophie Powers and Emi Grace to make the “DIRT(ier)” remix via Big Loud Rock. “I had to take the dirt up to another level,” Ko says. “I knew I wanted sick women artists on this remix, and immediately thought of Sophie Powers and Emi Grace. Sophie is so unapologetically herself and Emi is one of the baddiest guitarists of our generation. ‘Dirt(ier)’ is ‘DIRT’ but literally dirtier.” Check out the remix below. Though… Read more »
