Pinkshift Release “Vacant” Video Ahead of Fall Tour


Following the announcement of their forthcoming album, EARTHKEEPER, set to arrive via Hopeless Records on August 29, Pinkshift has released a video for their new single “Vacant.” You can preorder and pre-save the album here. “For ‘Vacant,’ we drew upon our ever-present punk influences to create a sound that feels familiar while also introducing concepts new to us,” the band shares. “Though we’re no strangers to breakdowns, the one in this song was inspired by grunge jam sections rather than hardcore/metalcore, and ended up becoming of the grooviest parts we’ve ever written.” Watch the official video for “Vacant” now.

12 New-Age Protest Songs To Listen To This 4th of July


For Americans across the nation, this July 4th might not feel like one worth celebrating. In Trump’s first six months in office, he’s sent the military on U.S. citizens in Los Angeles. ICE arrests have broken innocent families apart, and in most cases, those being deported have no criminal record (or are actual American citizens). Countless pieces of legislation were introduced or passed that take direct aim at the LGBTQ+ community.
