Spiritbox have shared a brand new track called “The Void” and it is gorgeous and grand in all the ways we have come to expect from them.
With four previous studio albums each offering a fresh perspective of electrifying emo-pop, Kicksie has released their all-new record Slouch via Counter Intuitive Records. In an array of slow-burn ballads and unabashed honesty, Slouch reads more like Giuliana Mormile’s personal diary where they’re free to be who they want to be and articulate their most intimate moments. Opening with the kaleidoscope-esque track, “Closure” before blooming into the album’s third track “Boyfriend,” Slouch is an amalgamation of highs and lows that represent Mormile’s intimate journey as an artist. We had the chance to speak with Mormile, the mastermind behind Kicksie ahead… Read more »
A R I Z O N A are kicking their new era into life with a life-affirming and heartfelt new track. You’re going to love it.
Punk Rock Factory have today (March 31st) released their new album It’s Just A Stage We’re Going Through, a collection of songs taken from the world’s biggest musicals. And to celebrate, they’ve given their take on an ABBA classic. That is “Mamma Mia”, the title track from the wonderful, life-affirming musical based on the music of the Swedish pop legends, and the band have transformed it into something truly special. Taking the iconic melodies and beats and pushing them through a chaotic pop-punk mesh, they’ve turned it into a total pit anthem. There’s even a breakdown. And with a video… Read more »

For Meet Me @ The Altar—a trio of young women of color, two of whom are queer—the only way around those industry hurdles is through them. “We’re the perfect mesh of like almost every single type of person in the world,” says vocalist Edith Victoria. I’m catching up with the band over Zoom, the day before their debut full-length, Past // Present // Future, is set to… Read more »
“I don’t know where you begin but it’s where I wanna end” Is there anything better than a beloved band returning after years away and delivering a no-skip album? I don’t think so—and apparently, Beach Weather agrees. Formed in 2015 and releasing two (excellent) EPs before going on hiatus in 2017, Beach Weather—Nick Santino, Reeve Powers, and Sean Silverman—re-emerged in late 2021 and now they’re officially back with their debut full-length, Pineapple Sunrise. Before we get any further, I have to confess that I’ve been a Nick Santino stan (a Stantino, if you will) since I started listening to his… Read more »
