It’s hard to say goodbye to the past and focus on the future. Whether this means letting go of a toxic relationship or moving on from what’s comfortable, change can be scary.

Knuckle Puck is tackling these complex emotions head-on with their new single, “Losing What We Love.” The title track introduces fans to the sonic experience fans will have on their forthcoming LP, which drops October 20 via Pure Noise Records.

Today is a big day for Lil Lotus. The pop-punk artist and rapper just announced his sophomore record nosebleeder, which will be released on December 1 via Epitaph Records. Giving fans a taste of what to expect, Lotus just dropped the title track, which grapples with themes of mental health and addiction through a rock-forward arrangement. Combining harsh background screams with driving guitar rhythms, “nosebleeder” is an elevated new take on the artist’s dynamic sound. Produced by pop-punk masters Mike Pepe (Taking Back Sunday, Charlotte Sands) and Matt Malpass (blink-182, nothing, nowhere.), we can expect this second full-length to be… Read more »

Arizona’s premier emo band The Maine are back with a brand-new music video for their track “thoughts i have while lying in bed.” The song comes from their 8123-released LP and self-titled ninth full album.

Seemingly, “thoughts i have while lying in bed” is a one-shot take, which is even more impressive. Check out the full music video below. The earnest indie tune is rich in… Read more »

L.S. Dunes is a gift to alternative music, full of endless sonic surprises. Today, the quintet released their new single, “Old Wounds.” With haunting stillness, the band departs from the intensity of their 2022 LP Past Lives, taking a slower approach to the release without sacrificing any raw instrumentals. Though, this is in staunch contrast to Dunes’ preceding 2023 single, “Benadryl Subreddit,” which begins with a screaming Anthony Green, and chock-full of “desert energy.” Talk about range.
