Grocer – “Downtown Side”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist: “The lyrics of “Downtown Side” are about a condition I have called Vasovagal Syncope, in which certain triggers cause me to abruptly faint. The anxiety of this occurring ironically creates a second fear where I worry that at any given point in time, I am actually unconscious and simply experiencing a lifelike dream.”

Ilan Rubin – “Don’t Panic!”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist: “An unexpectedly hip-swaying anthem for the anxious, “Don’t Panic!” humorously highlights the relentless mental roadblocks that plague and frustrate so many of us. Even though anxiety often seems absurd from a macro perspective, it can rear its ugly head at the drop of a dime. “Don’t Panic!” exists to strip anxiety of its power by spunkily parading these absurdities in a way that celebrates how they make us human. In doing so, the mid-tempo song melds elements of Seventies pop rock with a modern alternative edge to create an uplifting, timeless sound that connects its listeners in solidarity.”

Worldwide Panic – “Less Than Nothing”
Country: US
Genre: Rock
Words From the Artist: “Making this video was absolutely insane! We were in an abandoned factory in the heat of summer. No A/C. The whole band and director were dying – including myself! Ultimately, it made for a really dark and gritty video that is really unique. As far as the song is concerned, it’s about various people and the ‘industry’ throwing me away constantly and then wanting me back when it’s convenient to them.”

SOLAR EYES – “Naked Monkey on a Spaceship”
Country: UK
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist: “The track was written after a conversation between singer Glenn and a friend, who proclaimed that: “Life nowadays is like being a naked monkey on a spaceship, with no control.” On hearing this Glenn was compelled to write the track – but after a quick google, it seemed Glenn’s friend had misled him and had in fact heard it on a Joe Rogan podcast! The suitably cosmic video for the track is from the mind of Matt Watkins of Gorillaz fame, who has managed to create the visual world to perfectly accompany the music – no mean achievement when you consider Solar Eyes’ propensity for creating festival-ready anthems that nod to the muscular swaggerings of BMRC as well as the sonic mysteries of Messrs Morricone and Pizzorno.”

Emeryld – “Take The Exit”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist: “I untethered so much about myself and my patterns through this chunk of time writing. Not writing for anyone to hear or worrying about opinions on “the music”, but having it be deeply honest and cathartic for me. I found entertainment and interest in the duality of imposter syndrome and performative art. I’m very inspired by alternative 80’s and 90’s rock & pop, theater, character play, fashion, mental juxtaposition and nostalgia. There is no rule for what “goes together” because we are all filled with complexity and I try to find beauty in that.”

Grandma’s Boys – “Following Your Sleep”
Country: Germany
Genre: Skate Punk
Words From the Artist: “Following your sleep” appears as a cheesy love song but hides a criticism against the voyeurism of social media. It’s about a person who deals with strong emotions for somebody else. In the course of the song those emotions become deeper, more obsessed and more boundary breaking. The deeper meaning of the song is hidden by metaphors which lately reveals it’s real meaning by the music video which comes along.”
