talker is back with her newest single, “Easygoing.” This is the first taste of what to expect from her anticipated debut album that drops later this year. The music video for it is a slow descent into obsessive, delulu energy that contrasts the catchy, poppy tune. With this latest single, she enters her singer-songwriter, girlie-pop era with hypnotic guitars and soft vocals. Celeste Tauchar, the creative mind behind talker, says that while it’s her favorite piece of music she’s worked on so far, it’s “one of the scariest to release.” It isn’t due to the relaxed tone that counteracts the… Read more »

While Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift probably don’t have these bands on their Super Bowl playlist, we sure do. Here are some of our favorite acts that channel their jock side through sports-related band names.

Sleep Theory hop on the reimagination train with their new version of their song, “Fallout.” Departing from the original nu-metalcore, hard rock sound, the act flexes their ability to be somber, yet vulnerable while still encompassing the full power of the track.

The previous rendition generates rage-filled regret about a bad relationship.… Read more »
