Last week, emerging Nashville artist BAYBE blessed us with her new single “Father, Son, Holy Ghost.” Now, the rising starlet has unleashed the ceremonious accompanying video for her latest venture. “Father, Son, Holy Ghost” will be featured on BAYBE’s debut EP God’s Favorite, which arrives on April 28. Acting as a cult leader-like figure, BAYBE heads a chaotic mass gathering, which eventually leads to her followers drinking blood-like liquid from a glass in a church. The video is a testament to the track’s message where BAYBE is perceived as the “devil” through her tongue-in-cheek innuendos and pointed parody of religion.… Read more »

The Nightmares’ debut album Seancé is out now, and features a show-stopping track that includes none other than Creeper’s Will Gould.
MUNA is taking over and we are not mad about it. They seem to have their name on so many massive projects, and we still can’t get enough. The band just finished supporting Lorde on an Australian tour and co-headlining Sydney World Pride, and they are making waves in the United States. While in Australia, they did a cover of Celine Dion’s “My Heart Will Go On” for Triple J’s Like a Version. (Triple J is an Australian radio station that invites all sorts of artists to cover songs.) This cover will have you in tears. Their vocals are haunting… Read more »
Rainbow Kitten Surprise have released their first new track in over a year courtesy of Elektra Entertainment. The new song “Drop Stop Roll” is a fan favorite that the band have been playing live over the course of the last year, and now fans can enjoy it from the comfort of their home.

Origami Angel reinvent themselves once again with an ode to a shitty summer vacation in “Thank You, New Jersey” via Counter Intuitive Records. The DC two-piece are constantly transforming. Last fall the duo released two EPs spanning across entirely different soundscapes, showing their versatility in song writing. With the acoustic re:turn, and hardcore DEPART, this new track snuggles right into the middle. It showcases the bands ability to highlight all the most coveted pieces of creating a good alternative rock song. The song is coated in the technical aspects of math rock, the confined chaos of hardcore, all while nodding… Read more »
Paramore’s Hayley Williams has been on a hot streak lately. Acting as support for Taylor Swift’s opening night on the “Eras Tour,” the band’s first new album in six years was released in February, celebrating the 10-year anniversary of their self-titled album last week—the Paramore fan base has been well-fed over the last several months.

Wednesday have released their newest full-length album Rat Saw God today via Dead Oceans. To celebrate the release, the band have also dropped a music video for their somber yet catchy track “Quarry“. The new album is deeply empathetic, a patchwork of portraits of the American South. It contains half-funny and half-tragic autobiographical tales of a band from North Carolina drenched in the skuzz of nineties shoe gaze and country twang. Featuring tracks like “Bull Believer” and “Chosen to Deserve“, the album is sure to stick with you. Check out the track list and cover art below. Read More: What’s… Read more »
