Elder emos, your time to shine is coming this summer! Taking Back Sunday just announced a forthcoming tour with Bayside. The run kicks off on May 31 at Dewey Beach’s Bottle & Cork and wraps up on June 21 at Madison’s The Sylvee.

The Dirty Nil is gearing up for the release of their new album, The Lash, set to arrive on July 25 via Dine Alone Records. Today, the group released a new single from the upcoming LP, “Rock N’ Roll Band.” The cheeky song has a fresh, undeniable aggression that takes direct aim at the pitfalls of the music industry. “Someone else is getting rich/Not you/That’s what you’re gonna do,” the lyrics utter. In short… it’s a perfect track for anyone who is enraged at the broken systems they’re stuck inside. Vocalist frontman Luke Bentham shares, “This is the first song I wrote… Read more »
Ahead of their many summer tour dates, Daisy Grenade has revealed their latest single, “So Happy.” This marks their first release of 2025, preceded by tracks “Taste,” “How To Hide A Body,” and “Hypocrite.” The lyrics on the punchy and powerful bop are so relatable. I mean, who hasn’t tried to move on and *maybe* wasn’t successful at first? The duo sings, “He looks like he just won the lottery/And I’m, I’m fine/I swore I thought I could be the bigger person/Thought I could let it go/I swore I thought I could be the bigger person/Thought I could let it… Read more »
With their new album The Lash set to arrive on July 25, The Dirty Nil has released a taste of the record with their latest single, “Spider Dream.” “I woke up one morning, completely refreshed by a nightmare,” vocalist/guitarist Luke Bentham explains. “It was a strange feeling but enough to animate a song. I had also just watched the Beatles documentary that the Lord of the Rings fella made, so I was inspired to use more jangly chords than I usually do. It was a strange one to bring to the band but the arrangement came together instantly and it… Read more »
Following the breakout virality of her haunting alt-pop hit “In My Room” and its biting follow-up “Jennifer’s Body,” dark-pop auteur Julia Wolf returns with her rawest release yet—“Loser.” The single offers a third, striking preview of her forthcoming sophomore album Pressure, due out May 23 via AWAL. Where previous tracks leaned into eerie elegance and infectious hooks, “Loser” dials directly into emotional self-ruin. Built on a bed of slow-burning vulnerability and squealing guitar lines, “Loser” captures the psychological spiral of loving someone you don’t feel worthy of. Wolf’s vocals waver between restraint and desperation as she excavates insecurity in its… Read more »
