Don’t get “carsick” while listening to K.Flay’s new single! This follows her LP, MONO, which dropped in September. A visualizer for the song is a spiraling array that she warns on her Instagram Reel: “I am not responsible for any dizziness you may experience while watching.” In true electro-alt fashion, the song incorporates dancey drum beats, in-your-face vocals, and bridging twinkle to give listeners a break from the chaos of it. “Screaming out I’d die for you/ But after all the stops and starts, crashes and carnage/I’m just carsick,” tears through the chorus to recount the unbridled trust while living… Read more »

As the release of their third album, How To Disappear, looms, Casey has unleashed the contemplative ballad “Selah.” The aptly titled record marks the group’s full-length return following the announcement of their 2018 disbandment and is set to debut on January 12 via Hassle Records. The group’s latest effort showcases a shift toward a quieter, more introspective tone compared to the album’s previous previews: “Puncture Wounds To Heaven,” “How To Disappear,” and “Bite Through My Tongue.” Rather than having their post-hardcore roots prominently on display, “Selah” flourishes with melancholic percussion, moody guitar melodies, and vocalist Tom Weaver’s reflective delivery. At… Read more »
