Maryland’s The Dangerous Summer is back with the second taste of their forthcoming record with a new single, “What’s An Hour Really Worth.” “This song came somewhat earlier on in the writing process. That original riff really sent us into the chase of this song,” vocalist AJ Perdomo says. “The way all of the instruments push and pull really reminds me of a futuristic Reach For The Sun track.” He continues, “I remember when we reached the bridge, we really tried to switch it up. We try to set limitations to reach new ground sometimes, and the limitation we set was… Read more »

Phoenix, Arizona’s shoegaze artists Glixen have just wrapped up various tour dates with Softcult, Glitterer, and fish narc, and they are back with a new heavy-hitting single, “lust.” Previously, the band released track, “foreversoon” highlighting the glow of new love.

Lead vocalist Aislinn Ritchie says, “‘lust’ is about the yearning and wanting of somebody and the rush that that person makes you feel. It is a feeling… Read more »

Of the theme of “You’re So Ugly When You Cry,” frontman Lee Jennings explains, “It’s not about healing or the come-up later on, it’s about telling people ‘it sucks right now, I don’t like who I am when I’m like this, and… Read more »
