Indie darling beabadoobee has unleashed her alluring new single “Take A Bite,” which will appear on her freshly announced, forthcoming new album, This Is How Tomorrow Moves, arriving via Dirty Hit on August 16. “It’s me feeling introspective about my thoughts and unhealthy way of living,” beabadoobee shares about “Take A Bite.” “It’s finding comfort in a familiar place—finding comfort in chaos because that’s what I know.

Say Anything is a band that you can’t appropriately compare to any other band. Perhaps you could attempt to use metrics like ticket sales or song charting, but certainly not in any tangible sense of emotion, delivery, or downright weirdness. Say Anything kicked the doors down when they entered the scene with a huge “Fuck You” to any preconceived notion of what a “punk” or “emo” band should be. They didn’t give a shit about being a cog in the music industry machine—in fact, they were pretty loud about their despise for it. They wanted to share their passion for… Read more »

The band masterfully pummels listeners with two minutes and fifty-seven seconds of crushing, relentless arrangements and piercing lyricism highlighted by breakdown “The word becomes the law/The word becomes the law/Bend the knee/Child of God.” Speaking on the… Read more »
Stand Atlantic is prepared for battle with their new single, “WARZ0NE.” The track marks their first release of the year, and they’re showing no signs of slowing down. “WARZ0NE” aims at people who hide behind their screens while attempting to target and hit those in the spotlight with hatred. “I have been advised many times I shouldn’t respond to hate comments online,” says frontwoman Bonnie Fraser. “So, I just wrote a song about it instead.” Aggressive vocals from Fraser call out negative comments but finally said aloud versus typing words out on a keyboard. The ending chorus drips in anger… Read more »
