Enter Shikari and FEVER 333’s Jason Aalon Butler release their latest collab with the new single “Losing My Grip.” This is both acts’ first new music in 2024, ahead of their upcoming arena tour in the UK and EU. With innovative traits from both artists, the new song joins Butler’s fast-paced delivery and socially aware lyrics with lead singer and producer Rou Reynolds‘s distorted electro mix that’s solidified in unity with equally aggressive vocals from both. Butler says that he’s always been a fan of Enter Shikari; “they are an entity in their own lane.” That’s evident on this track,… Read more »
Following the release of one of their latest tracks, the August 2023 single “DEADZONE,” Finnish nu-metal group Blind Channel stopped by the idobi Radio Studios in Los Angeles. The six-piece—comprised of Joel Hokka (vocals), Niko Moilanen (vocals), Joonas Porko (guitarist), Olli Matela (bassist), Tommi Lalli (drummer), and Aleksi Kaunisvesi (percussionist)—skillfully deconstructs the track to expose its bare bones. In contrast to the original’s larger-than-life format and sound, the group seamlessly peels back the layers of the track, allowing the rawness and vulnerability of the single to take center stage. Exchanging the intricate instrumentation, heavy beats, and expansive production for the… Read more »

The word on the street is that Billie Eilish and Bring Me The Horizon are about to drop a collab together, or, at least that’s what fans theorize.

Launching into the new year with a potential contender for the ultimate breakup anthem of 2024, LØLØ unveils her latest offering, the fierce and unapologetic “2 of us.” The song, which follows her December release “*snow in berlin*,” draws inspiration from LØLØ‘s own journey of emancipating herself from a past partner whose presence only added toxicity to her life. Navigating the emotional spectrum from the revelation of “still texting your ex” to the vulnerable act of drunk-dialing “7 times,” “2 of us” ignites with a fervent energy. LØLØ‘s dynamic blend of pop sensibility and powerful vocal delivery complements the track,… Read more »

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 »
