With less than a month to go before Mannequin Pussy officially drop their eagerly-awaited fourth studio album, I Got Heaven, arriving on March 1 via Epitaph Records, the four-piece have released their Buffy The Vampire Slayer-inspired new single, “Nothing Like.” In this latest offering, the band seamlessly melds their trademark indie essence with sugary-sweet punk, crafting a dynamic soundscape that encapsulates the fervent longing for youthful romance.

Following the release of “IF LYRICS WERE CONFIDENTIAL,” Waterparks has unleashed their new song, “ANY MINUTE NOW.” On social media, the band shares, “’ANY MINUTE NOW’ is about the uncertainty of growing up. When you’re a kid, everything feels so confusing and overwhelming, but you think, ‘When I’m older, everything will make sense.’ Then you’re a teenager and you’re like, ‘This is all bullshit, but everything will make sense when I’m an adult, the rest of this will be figured out.’ Then you become an adult and you’re like, ‘Fuck, because I know to have even more questions now, things… Read more »
After debuting their latest single at Reading and Leeds last month, Waterparks has officially unleashed “IF LYRICS WERE CONFIDENTIAL.” “A lot of the songs on the next Waterparks album play with big, abstract concepts, and IF LYRICS WERE CONFIDENTIAL was one of those,” frontman Awsten Knight shares. “The premise is exactly what it sounds like – things I’d get into if I didn’t think anyone would ever hear the song, which in my opinion is the best way to write. It’s how you get yourself to talk about the most personal and uncomfortable things. The lyrics brush through a lot… Read more »

On July 25, The Dirty Nil, aka dynamic duo vocalist/guitarist Luke Bentham and drummer Kyle Fisher, brought their trademark blistering rock and roll on The Lash. And this time, the two went back to basics in a simple studio set-up with local audio engineer Vince Solivari just down the street in their hometown of Hamilton, Ontario. Beyond this stripped-back approach, Fisher and Bentham sought out to make a record that made them feel “stoked,” and ignite feelings that returned them to day one. So, between their straight-forward attitudes and even a trip to Rome, The Dirty Nil arrived with 10… Read more »
