ever, ending – “Ghost On My Walls”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “This song is about losing someone extremely close to you, be it a lover, friend, or family member. You find out after they pass there was a whole side to them you never knew, now that they’re gone you can never get the answers you are desperately searching for. It’s one thing to lose someone but another to realize you never really knew them at all. The song tries to highlight the feeling of loss and grieving with betrayal and confusion.”

Casino Havana – “How Does It Feel?”

Country: UK

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “Coming home to find your partner with someone else is hard enough, but then going out to find someone else purely for revenge is worse. ‘How Does It Feel?’ encompasses the feeling of hurt and betrayal as a alternative indie rock song, using expressive lyrics, powerful vocals, and explosive guitar tones. From the very beginning, Casino Havana take you down a gloomy dark path of bottling up your emotions. When the chorus hits, the listener is taken back from the band exploding with all they have, a true musical rollercoaster.”

Kudre – “My Design”

Country: UK

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “My Design serves as an honest reflection on the inherent imperfections of the human condition. The chorus echoes “Mistakes are part of my design” encapsulating this sentiment. Due to budget constraints, the song was recorded in a single day at Brixton Hill Studios. The constrained timeline injects raw, chaotic energy into the track, echoing the thematic focus on embracing our inherent flaws. This is an alt-rock, punk hit that you do not want to miss.”

Moon Date – “Maze”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR:  “Detroit’s indie rock sensation, Moon Date, returns with their electrifying new single, “Maze.” Blending 80s synth vibes with a gritty 90s alternative edge, the band draws inspiration from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Postal Service, and Metric, creating a unique and captivating sound. “Maze” dives into the inner turmoil of self-discovery, serving as a compelling anthem for anyone grappling with societal norms while striving to find their true self. Its evocative lyrics and powerful melodies transform personal struggle into a universal, liberating message, resonating deeply with listeners.”

TIFFY – “Mirror”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “The song is about the comfortability people feel maintaining the status quo.”

Mavis – “Carolina”

Country: Canada

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “Carolina is a blaring two minute punk rock song worthy of any skate punk band, it’s a noticeable shift in sound for Mavis who have always leaned heavier into roots and pop roots.”

Widows Gold – “Gaslighter”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: “”Gaslighter” is for all who have struggled through a toxic relationship. The lyrics tackle the inner turmoil of questioning your every move and feeling set up to fail. “Was I the one to cause the fight? Every mistake on replay. Was I the one to start the game?” Madeline Star’s emotive vocal matched with biting guitars and the relentless rhythm make this track infectiously catchy.”

The Vaniers – “Painted Town”

Country: Canada

Genre: Indie Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: ““Painted Town” is a pump up song – it’s meant to get you stoked and ready for whatever’s around the corner. At the same time, there’s a strong sense of nostalgia here for us, going back to music from our childhood that unknowingly would impact us as musicians much later on in life. You could say that this song was written for our ten year old selves, sitting in front of the TV with the volume way up. – guitarist Alex Iacobellis”

Brock Geiger – “Steps Taken”

Country: Canada

Genre: Indie Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: ““Steps Taken” was written as a reflection on the intricacies and fragility of relationships, ecosystems built on trust, losing oneself to someone or something, and finding regeneration and a way forward by looking inwards. I’m a big fan of juxtaposition and extremes in art and “Steps Taken” achieves this with its energetic-spazzy, K-Pop inspired foundation for heavier lyrical themes”

vampireluvr – “Proof”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist/PR: ““Proof,” out on July 24, pulls a 50-foot-high anthem out of molten guitars, industrial drums and a barely whispered verse, exploding into a chorus worthy of 2000s nü-metal superstars.”
