Today, moody hip-hop artist iann dior has launched his cathartic new EP BLIND via 10K Projects. The EP follows up his April 2023 12-track LP leave me where you found me. Ahead of the six-track collection, the “emotions” singer shared the single “House On Fire” with an accompanying music video in February. The standout EP single shows a softer side of iann dior, soulfully singing over acoustic guitar strums before crescendoing into a booming, fiery (no pun intended) chorus. “Come set this house on fireAll of the memories, yeah, all of the misery/Let all the flames get higher/Take all your… Read more »
Beauty School Dropout has released a reimagined version of their single “one night stand you” via Verswire. The original version is off of their latest album, READY TO EAT. Last week, they released a black-and-white music video for the track. Vocalist Colie Hutzler is authentically raw in his delivery. While the original song is more poppy and pointed, the acoustic take illustrates a quiet pain. Listening to either style, the meaning of the overall single doesn’t change. Hutzler explains, “Much like drugs, I believe love (or lust) is a substance that can just as easily be turned into a crutch… Read more »

Orlando-based pop-punk quintet FELICITY teamed up with vocalist Jon Lundin of Point North to offer up their new single “Charlie Sheen.” “As a band, we’ve always struggled to find our identity and place in the music scene. We’ve felt overlooked, passed over, and at times forgotten. Over time, that can take a toll on your mental health and lead to self-destructive behavior,” says FELICITY guitarist Drew Rapier. “We wanted ‘Charlie Sheen’ to speak to some of our experiences and hopefully be a beacon of hope to anyone who can relate to our story and know they aren’t alone.” Check out the… Read more »
The scene’s hottest alt-rockers, Beauty School Dropout, have shared an intoxicating music video for their anthemic 2023 single, “one night stand you.” The track appeared on the three-piece’s 9-track sophomore album, READY TO EAT, which arrived courtesy of Verswire on October 13, 2023. The music video kicks off in color, as it showcases vocalist Colie Hutzler’s dragging his signature hot-pink gaff taped mic across the dusty ground. However, the scene quickly fades and transitions into a striking black and white visual. The black and white overlay of the video further cements the central theme of the track, which is that… Read more »
