We love it when punk bands put their own original spin on classic songs. The Linda Lindas are no exception, giving us a fresh take on a ‘60s classic with their cover of “Little Bit O’ Soul” by The Music Explosion. Released today via Epitaph Records, the guitar-driven arrangement is on the soundtrack for the new Amazon Prime film, ‘Totally Killer.’ From the first riff, The Linda Lindas’ cover is as evocative and explosive as your favorite Joan Jett song. The simple arrangement of electric guitars, bass, drums, and filtered vocals make the track infectiously catchy and danceable. Plus, the… Read more »

Indie-rockers HUNNY took over our playlists with the likes of “Homesick” and “Xbox Luvr,” and they’re doing it again with the new track “ring in ur ear” featuring none other than Motion City Soundtrack vocalist Justin Courtney Pierre.

Painting a lyrical picture of young love, the band will give you all the nostalgic feels you need for a mid-week pick-me-up. Check out the brand-new music video below.

This time, the pop-rock duo made a relationship track that is doused in nostalgia-inducing neon pop-punk vibes.

We all love a powerful frontwoman, and Against The Current’s Chrissy Costanza fits the bill. The band’s new single “silent stranger” introduces fans to their “nightmare era,” which is chock-full of black and white imagery and a dark-pop edge that elevates their classic sound. It’s all about shedding the persona they’ve created for themselves and the challenges of reclaiming their authentic identity. There comes a point when the reflection in the mirror looks like a complete stranger, which Costanza sings in the lyrics, “I know all the lies/I brought to life/Now I don’t know how to be someone real/Hate that… Read more »
