It follows the band throughout New York City and how they can go from feeling great with a full box of pizza to being down in your feels once it’s all gone. Partnered with contrasting lyrics to light dance rock instrumentals, Young Rising Sons recreated the eclectic indie-sleaze sound. Read more: Cloud Nothings Issue “Silence” From… Read more »

Ahead of their forthcoming spring headlining tour, Brooklyn’s Young Rising Sons are back with a new track, “(Un)Happy Hour.” The single might have a sad title, but its pop-rock sonics are sure to lift your spirits better than any half-priced cocktail or beer special. “(Un)Happy Hour” follows up their January 19 release, “Take Me Out.” Over sunny indie-rock instrumentals and easygoing vocals, the chorus says, “Spilling sand on the counter/Uppers hit like a downer/But I’m at my happiest/At unhappy hour.” Check out the new track below. “Everything in life comes down to timing, & each wrinkle in time leaves its… Read more »

Aaron West And The Roaring Twenties have unleashed their latest single, “Whiplash,” a somber turning point for the 16-person ensemble’s forthcoming full-length In Lieu Of Flowers. The 11-track record will arrive on April 12 and can be pre-ordered here.

Keeping things cryptic, twenty one pilots are teasing their next single, “Next Semester,” off of their forthcoming full-length, Clancy. The duo posted on their Instagram two photos showcasing, presumably, vocalist Tyler Joseph’s legs and drummer Josh Dun’s arm resting on a cymbal, along with a “leaked” video snippet of a crowd while they perform the song. The preview of it gives an air of Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” vibe with dulled-out imagery partnered with moshing. “I don’t wanna be here,” sings Joseph to the crowd as they scream it back for the perfect harmony. With the sound leaning more… Read more »
Juno Awards-nominees Softcult has launched their grunge-fueled new single “Spiralling Out” and announced the release of their new EP titled Heaven, due on May 24. “Spiralling Out” marks the fourth preview of the six-track collection, which was preceded by the releases of “Haunt You Still,” “Shortest Fuse,” and the titular track, “Heaven.” In a grunge meets shoegaze cacophony, “Spiralling Out” is a dazzling display of Softcult’s prowess, instantly transporting listeners into a state of anxiously spinning out of control: “I’ve been spiralling out for hours/Burning a hole in my brain.” The pair shares, “Hopefully, this song is one that lets… Read more »
