What better way to kick off a weekend than with new music? Featuring new tracks from Paramore, Pierce the Veil, Linkin Park, and more.
Last month, I sat down with Vic Fuentes, who, I don’t need to tell you, is the frontman for Pierce The Veil (and if I do need to tell you, what’s it like under that rock?).
Your favorite mall goth, twin sibling duo Softcult is back with an ethereal new track “Haunt You Still” with a music video to pair. The song follows up their March release, the see you in the dark EP, which features “Someone2Me,” “Dress” and more tracks infused with classic industrial rock, grunge sonics and thoughtful, poignant, social justice lyrics. Check out Softcult‘s “Haunt You Still” below featuring a delicious dose of shoegaze sounds and reflective lyrics. “Haunt You Still” serves as a unique vision of the past, one where duo Mercedes and Phoenix Arn-Horn take accountability. “Maybe it’s a defense mechanism,… Read more »

L.S. Dunes has been sharing new tunes, dropping band documentaries, and now they’ve released a new music video for “Old Wounds.” Created by @iammethisisi, an AI artist, the video shows scenes of fire, astronauts, UFOs, and more.

When the teaser video initially made its rounds on the band’s social media, fans were dismayed, overall rejecting the notion that AI art is ethical and/or worthwhile. In response to the backlash, L.S.… Read more »
Fans of L.S. Dunes have something to celebrate today, and it’s not new music. The modern rock quintet released the third and final installment of their ‘Limitless Sky’ documentary.
