Italian rock sensation Damiano David, frontman of the powerhouse four-piece band Måneskin, has launched his debut solo single, “Silverlines.” In addition to unleashing the new track, Damiano has indicated that the release is the first to arrive from a new project. “This song is very special to me,” Damiano shares. “It was one of the first songs to be recorded on this new project, and at the time, it represented a letter of hope, but now, if I look back, I can see how I am exactly where the song said I would be. It was automatic for me to… Read more »
Boy bands are some of the best bands around. From One Direction and Hanson to BTS and Waterparks, these artists crank out absolute bangers. Frankly, NSYNC‘s “Bye Bye Bye” is forever iconic. Of course, today is a massive day for metal fans who love sounds of the early aughts, as Blind Channel covered Backstreet Boys‘ “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back).” But this time, the “Bloodbros” are back. The band shares, “Over 10 years ago we were starting our career as a group of teenagers playing energetic metal while being dressed like 2010’s Justin Biebers. People started calling us a ‘boyband trying to… Read more »
Marking their debut single, Laura Jane Grace & the Mississippi Medicals—fronted by LJG and featuring Matt Patton on bass, Mikey Erg on drums, and her wife Paris Campbell Grace on vocals and percussion—have unleashed “All Fucked Out.” “Back in 2021, I sat down in my office to do some songwriting,” Laura Jane Grace explains in a press release. “Not knowing what specifically to write about that day, I challenged myself to write a song similar to whatever the current No. 1 hit in the world was at the time. I made the challenge to myself without knowing exactly what that… Read more »
Kiesza flashed onto the scene, and into the zeitgeist, with her 2014 debut single “Hideaway”, only to lose it all just as fast, in equally dramatic fashion, when she suffered a brain injury from a horrific car crash. The accident started her on a years-long journey of recovery and self discovery, dealing with doubts of ever making it back to music. The music industry all but wrote her off as gone forever, a blessing in disguise, that liberated Kiesza with the opportunity to rebuild herself and learn some profound lessons about life, mortality, and the kind of artist she was… Read more »

Sometimes the songs hidden between the singles on an album are the best ones. Maybe they weren’t front and center, but they play an integral part of the narrative. “Heart Of Gold” by Beauty School Dropout is a shining example of this notion. Not a primary focus of their sophomore album, READY TO EAT, but perhaps the last piece of the puzzle that when you step back, makes the effort complete. Arguably a song with one of the strongest melodies on the album, the band takes a staccato approach to the verses with lead singer, Colie Hutzler singing: “Trouble when… Read more »

After dropping the song announcement on January 11, Taylor Acorn has officially shared her new single “Gray.” On the heels of her dark, melancholic, yet energetic 2023 single “Basement,” “Gray” sees the singer exploring life when it feels drab and exhausting—a feeling many can relate to. “These persistent little doubts/Chew me up then spit me out/Went by the book but skipped a page,” Acorn sings before ramping up to the supercharged chorus, juxtaposed with sunny, dance-inducing guitar melodies. Listen to the new track below. “I know I say this a lot but I truly mean it when I say one… Read more »
Don’t underestimate teenage bands: they’re unstoppable. Their drive, ambition, and carefree attitudes toward life and the world around them don’t make them naive; these traits just make them better at tapping into their vulnerable sides. Whether this means sadness, rage, or cautious contentment, the three members of the punk trio HotWax are proving this to be true with their latest single, “Phone Machine.” Mixing distorted guitars with Bikini Kill-esque vocal melodies, “Phone Machine” is a refreshing new take on the ‘90s feminist punk sound. The music video holds the same DIY attitude, showcasing the members of HotWax performing the track… Read more »
