Following their unexpected yet fiery collaboration released on February 16, PVRIS has now unveiled the visually striking black-and-white motif accompanying their latest single, “BURN THE WITCH.” Featuring rapper Tommy Genesis and the innovative DJ/producer/singer/songwriter Alice Longyu Gao, the track loosely delves into the historical narrative of women accused of witchcraft and the fear they instilled, particularly in men. However, the track transcends storytelling to become a strong anthem of empowerment for women and minorities. Notably, the single boasts an all-female team behind its creation, from writing to production and engineering. This underlines PVRIS leader Lynn Gunn‘s commitment to inclusivity across… Read more »

The music video opens with a body of dark blue water, followed by an urgent-sounding synth that mimics an alarm, building tension before transitioning into a jazzy, drum-led section of the song accompanied by a distorted voice welcoming everyone back to Trench. Vocalist Tyler Joseph slowly chimes in with the lines, “I created this world/To feel some control/Destroy it if I want it/So I… Read more »

ERRA has dropped a music video for their latest single, “Blue Reverie,” from their upcoming album, CURE. The LP will arrive on April 5 via UNFD. The music video takes place in a similar landscape to their previous single release. Staying in the same world works in favor of the act to further emphasize the environmental messaging they want to give to fans. The band plays in an abandoned home with large, dirty windows that are slightly illuminated. It illustrates the lyrics in the chorus through their mise-en-scène, “Get me back home to hide away/Hide away/Slip back into my silhouette.”… Read more »
Lil Lotus releases an acoustic version of “blame me for everything,” and taps MOD SUN for guest vocals. The reimagined track comes from his upcoming album, Nosebleeder (Deluxe), which arrives on March 22 via Epitaph Records. This will extend his 2023 sophomore LP and include five stripped-down songs. The emo rapper is known for energetic, provocative lyrics in his music. Partnered with booming beats and roaring guitars, it’s in-your-face and abrasive in a good way. This pivot to something softer somberizes the message, imbuing it with an almost defeated tone. “Sometimes your love is a loaded gun/You can blame me… Read more »
