Ben Quad has announced that they’ve inked a deal with Pure Noise Records and they’ve released their label debut single, “You’ll Get Nothing And Like It.” “It’s a song about the financial institutions created to keep us in a cycle of debt and dependency,” the band shares in a press release. “The track’s spoken line ‘You were made to throw away’ announces the main theme of the forthcoming record. We are disposable in the eyes of our protectors. Each of us is an ephemera (an item created purely to be used for a short time).” The punchy track, clocking in… Read more »

After sharing the news that Riot Fest would take place in Bridgeview, IL at SeatGeek Stadium, the festival has officially announced they’re returning to Douglass Park in the heart of Chicago. “If there was no Chicago, there’d be no Riot Fest. It grew out of an independent music community where one would be able to see Naked Raygun, Smashing Pumpkins, or Rise Against on a random Saturday night, and you’d still have enough time to go catch a late-night set at Legends and if lucky enough, maybe Buddy (Guy) would be there performing at his venue,” says founder Michael “Riot… Read more »
Pale Waves has delivered another glimpse into their forthcoming full-length with their new single, “Gravity.” The twinkling track is steeped in personal conflict and details the tension between Heather Baron-Gracie and a previous partner. The frontwoman opens up in the track about her partner’s ebb and flow struggle to accept her sexual identity and their relationship over her religious beliefs. “‘Gravity’ is about a woman who chose Jesus over me,” Heather shares. “It took the longest of all of the songs on the album to finish. I think we must have rewritten it millions of times to get it to… Read more »
