This is donkey punk with a capital BOING!”

Marc Moran – “white water”

Country: US

Genre: Indie Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “‘white water’ is a midtempo indie rock song, with laid back drums, and jangly guitars. The perfect record for that sunday feel. The stripped back production lends to the songs intimacy.”

Meat Bags – “Guts”

Country: UK

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “‘Guts’ attempts to put into words the anxiety created by the new modern condition and the grip it has on us. It is an exploration of fake worlds that leave you dissatisfied with your looks, your likes and your life.'”

Soraia – “So Holy”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “This is the first single from our upcoming EP,”Confessions From The Vena Cava”, which we recorded in Sweden with producer Tomas Skogsberg. We sought him out for his raw sound and buzzsaw guitar we loved on other projects he’s worked on including The Hellacopters, Backyard Babies, and Entombed. We really wanted to capture more of how we sound live, but still making it accessible to listen to. We also had decided to express ourselves more fully on this release, allowing hope to be tempered with anger at all the injustice we’ve been seeing in our world. “

Michael Vickers and The Bad Thing – “Demons”

Country: UK

Genre: Indie Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “Everyone has demons hiding somewhere or other. What defines us is how we deal with them and with their new single Michael Vickers and The Bad Thing choose to bring them into the light to be transformed into something cathartic and strangely beautiful. While the vivid imagery of Vickers’ lyrics are uniquely personal, ‘Demons’ is a collaboration at its core: The Bad Thing’s first release as a four-piece band. The pre-existing trio of Vickers (vocals, guitar), Dave Dhonau (bass) and Tommy Wilkinson-Baugh (drums) are now joined by longtime friend, lead guitarist Adam Krzeczkowski whose bluesy hooks bring added depth to the sound.”

Lina Cooper – “DADDY ISSUES”

Country: Ukraine

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “I wrote “DADDY ISSUES” about my former best friend who killed my cat, moved out of our house leaving me without rent and then slandered my name around our community. She also started sleeping with a married man with a child who was 40 years older because he is a multi-millionaire.”

MRS – “Ride”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “Ride was produced by Alex Estrada (Glixen, Drug Church, Touche Amore) at The Pale Moon Ranch Studio in Southern California. It is The truest representation of MRS’s sound to date, after adding new guitarist Hunter Stewart to the group. ‘Ride’ is an anthemic, fun and upbeat song with catchy melodies and bright guitar tones. The song’s lyrics tell the story of a revenge murder, the narrator acting on a personal vendetta by locking their victim in the trunk of a car and driving across a desert in the middle of summer. The song transitions into a slower, heavier, more contemplative outro section, then finally ending with a melody so delicate it almost makes the listener feel like leaning in just so they don’t miss it.”
