Paper Space – “Impression”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: ““Impression” is the first single from Deathlike, the sophomore full-length album by Modesto, CA indie rockers Paper Space. Continuing in the band’s tradition of crafting songs that resemble long-lost 90’s college radio hits, “Impression” is a heartfelt and anthemic track which previews the overarching narrative of Deathlike, a concept album centered around an ICU patient’s struggle to rebuild his strained family ties as he navigates the aftermath of severe illness and disfigurement. The song’s exploration of altered appearance, fear of judgment, and the narrator’s longing for genuine connection with his partner and child mirrors the album’s themes of personal growth despite physical trauma.”

Compass & Cavern – “All Lowercase”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: ““All Lowercase” was written out of frustration at a lack of creativity and innovation in music. Will has been a music theory snob ever since he took a single class in high school and learned that there are more than just the same four chords. After that revelation, it’s been easy for him to condescendingly dismiss popular music as basic and trite. Oh, is that a band experiencing greater levels of success than him and threatening his sense of self-worth? No problem, they didn’t even use a borrowed chord in their recent hit single. Will wins again. But this time, things were different. He wasn’t just annoyed at the boring use of the same old chords in the same old 4/4 time, he was now annoyed at the new (at the time) title conventions. It seemed that “artists” were trying to dress up cliche, bland “music” with new and exciting uses of capitalization. That way they could guarantee that they looked cool and modern on Spotify playlists, which is of course why musicians are in it in the first place.”

Palomino Blond – “Understand”
Country: US
Genre: Indie Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: “”Understand” is a wintery song that deals with begging for attention from someone who doesn’t care about you. With a sound that falls somewhere between shoegaze and alt rock, the track gives a fresh take on a 90’s sound. The track is the first single off of You Feel It Too, the band’s new album set to release in October of this year. “

Caifein – “Dolls and Crosses”
Country: Australia
Genre: Punk
Words From the Artist/PR: “Melbourne’s Caifein are back with their second ever single, rotating the lead vocals to Rob on bass, and tactical group vocals sprinkled throughout. A lively and uplifting track that is a favourite at live shows.”

Lombardy – “Midnight Man”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: “This was recorded at East Iris Studios in Nashville, TN, and is the second single off the band’s upcoming LP. It was recorded live, all in one take, in the same room.”

The Keystones – “The Wolf of Walgreens”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: “The Wolf of Walgreens serves as the first track of the band’s forthcoming hard rock EP, Do You Work Hard Enough?, which tackles themes of burnout, work, personal health, and the nature of developing as a musician in the rapidly evolving—and constantly changing—social media era. The song’s title is a pointed jab at high-level industry executives, specifically pharmaceutical groups, and how many have continued to thrive in a post-COVID world. “There was a lot of anger during the writing process,” said Keystones singer Jack Sherman, “but also a lot of levity, a lot of humor. We’re not so young as to believe a song or an album can change the way the world works, but we wanted to send a message to the people who profit most from the hardships other people face—to let them know that we’re here, we’ve noticed, and we’re going to make some noise about it.”

In Charge – “I Don’t Wanna Be You”
Country: UK
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: “Glasgow’s hard rock sensation “In Charge” are back with their electrifying punk-inspired track “I Don’t Wanna Be You”. With its fast crushing guitar riffs, energetic drums and slamming bass lines the song drives much emotion about every mans struggle to become who they know they should be. Since forming in early 2023, the band have been performing explosive live shows in Scotland at venues like Edinburgh’s Bannermans Bar and Glasgow’s Nice N Sleazy and this song channels that same frenetic live energy.”

Ty Walker and the Humanoids – “Never Odd or Even”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: “Ty Walker tackles his past through the fever dream of Never Odd or Even, a track that allows the band to explore flavors of psychedelic-indie-funk-rock while digging through the remnants left behind by Walker’s estranged father. Here Walker’s bizarre childhood dreams of flying vacuum cleaners and careening arrows blend together with the subject of his father’s writings: black holes, other universes, strange things that Walker could only assume were dreams themselves. Just as Ty Walker became unable to clearly understand the lines between the real and the imagined, so too does the song become a kaleidoscope of imagery and sound, keys and synths weaving in between Walker’s nonchalant vocals, memories and dreams overlapping and somehow creating a cohesive picture of his origins: delightfully absurd and yet somehow making perfect sense.”

StickyBongWater – “Sex In The Graveyard”
Country: US
Genre: Punk
