Brooklane is here with their brand-new single “Vacancy,” ushering in a new era for the North Dakota-based pop-punk outfit. This marks the band’s first 2024 offering, and is preceded by June 2023’s Stay Toxic EP and July 2023 single “Vampire.” Brooklane began teasing the track in late January 2024, and have been diligently sharing both emotional and meme-able Instagram Reels ahead of the release. “Rising from the fall/I never think of you at all/It just makes more sense/A little less tense/I’m finding me/And after all, I won’t be waiting for a call/When he’s through with you/You search for truth/Can find… Read more »
If you grew up in the ‘90s and early/mid-00s, you know damn well that The Lonely Island and Weird Al Yankovic were the names of parody music. Weird Al’s approach has often been to parody specific popular radio songs. The Lonely Island comedy-trio made some of the most iconic comedy songs on Saturday Night Live—frequently featuring some of Hollywood’s biggest names like Justin Timberlake and Natalie Portman. And now we have Kyle Gordon. A comedian who has been making a name for himself in the art of parody songwriting, taking over one genre at a time. He released his debut… Read more »

Like Moths To Flames has announced their new album, THE CYCLES OF TRYING TO COPE, via UNFD. It comes out on May 10, and the third single from the upcoming LP, “Kintsugi,” released today, taps into a melodic metalcore vibe paired with a black-and-white music video. They’ve previously released two other tracks, and the band says each song relates to a coping “cycle.” The intro starts heavy with guitars and goes into clean vocals from frontman Chris Roetter. He belts screams while building up into the verse. The lyrics, “When it breaks/What piece am I left with?” break down the… Read more »
Dayseeker releases their haunting cover of Evanescence’s song, “My Immortal.” The track will be on their upcoming acoustic album, Replica, which drops on April 19 via Spinefarm. The music video for the rendition is a homage to how stripped down from their original post-hardcore sound they’re looking to showcase to fans. Standing in a studio with vocalist Rory Rodriguez and guitarist Gino Sgambelluri, they paint a sad picture emphasizing the theme of isolated grief. When the chorus builds up, the emotional tangent Rodriguez rips into is simplistically gripping. It is a rare feat when it comes to reimagining classic works… Read more »

Injected with a double dose of melancholy, it’s perfect for a stroll in the rain with gray skies overhead. Highlighted by… Read more »
