Putting my journalist hat aside for just a moment: L.S. Dunes are one of the coolest fucking bands in the alternative space right now. Hat back on—ahead of their performance at Riot Fest this weekend, the Anthony Green-fronted supergroup has unleashed a hypnotizing new single, “Fatal Deluxe.” As the instrumentation ebbs and flows in a dynamic formula, shifting between moments of muted intensity and explosive energy, Green’s vocals are the heart of the track. His mesmerizing croons wrap each line in a dizzying warmth while his raspy shrieks pierce through the arrangement with force. “In my opinion, ‘Fatal Deluxe’ marks… Read more »

As Underoath prepares to kick off the They’re Only Chasing Safety 20th Anniversary Tour later this month, the group has shared their biting new single, “Teeth.” “With our new track ‘Teeth,’ we dove into a pretty exciting territory for me—something I’ve always wanted to explore with this band but never felt was possible,” Chamberlain shares. “It almost has a vibe reminiscent of classic hip-hop samples or something that Linkin Park might have done, which I find so cool. I never imagined we’d actually pull it off in an Underoath song, but it came together so naturally. Lyrically, the song puts… Read more »
Guitarist Stephen Harrison and drummer Aric Improta “knew it wasn’t going to be easy to start again from scratch, but that phrase became our ethos.” After departing from Fever 333 in October 2022, the dynamic duo knew it was time to sonically explore corners of the alternative landscape they hadn’t reached. This time, without creative differences in their way. Luckily, House Of Protection—their new venture—found its sound on their first day of writing. The band combines the raw grit and uncensored ferocity fans from the past decade have come to expect from the artists, tinged with a humble and unique approach to modern… Read more »
Mouth Culture has officially delivered their brand-new single, “Everyday”, as well as the announcement of their forthcoming EP. Whatever The Weather is set to be released on October 4 via InVogue Records. The band notes, “‘Everyday’ is a self-reflective anthem that delves into the entrapment of everyday struggles. Exploring more mature themes around mental health, ‘Everyday’ is probably the most personal and vulnerable song we have ever written. It’s saturated in nostalgia and nods to shoegaze influences which haven’t been acknowledged on prior releases.” In 2023, the trio released their EP Mishaps Of My Mid Twenties, which vocalist Jack Voss… Read more »

Following the release of 2024 glimmer rock releases “Beauty Queen” and “Fuck Me,” Vienna Vienna has returned with the beautifully heartbreaking “Best Of Me.” Marked with brutal honesty and soft acoustic guitar strums, listeners may get super duper into their feels. Don’t say we didn’t warn you! Vienna Vienna shares of the track, “Catch a glimmer and hold it like glass. ‘Best of Me’ is equally a self-imposed call for action as it is a cry for help.

At the start of the summer, we had SLOE JACK stop by the idobi Radio Studios in North Hollywood to play a little game we like to call Truth Or Darts. We already knew any time with SLOE JACK, aka Jack Mark Garritty, was a good time, but we weren’t prepared for such a great time. During his visit, we got into all of the nitty-gritty, including what era he would time travel back to if given the chance (and there’s a great little song to accompany it), what he’s genuinely afraid of, bad breath versus sweaty palms, embarrassing text… Read more »
