E-PO – “Mother”
Country: UK
Genre: Alt Rock
From the Artist: “‘Mother’ is the debut single from E-PO, Birmingham’s most exciting new Alt-Rock band. Pulling influences from artists such as The Runaways and Nothing But Thieves, the track features playfully sinister lyricism, raucous guitars and driving drumbeats that come together to immerse the listener in the song’s chaotic soundscape.
TOMMY GUN – “The End”
Country: Australia
Genre: Alt Rock
From the Artist: “Written in a South Sydney treehouse where influences such as The Vines and Sticky Fingers once lived, TOMMY GUN brings you “The End”. This song is a masterfully written contrast of light and shade. In just over 3 minutes, TOMMY GUN shows his vulnerable side to tell the story of “time running out and not having the chance to open yourself up to love”. Dark overtones of TOMMY GUN’s voice capture themes of demise, whilst bright connotations throughout the melodic chorus delve into the idea of rebirth. “
The Confusions – “1664”
Country: Swden
Genre: Indie Rock
From the Artist: “2 minutes and 20 sekunds of rough but happy poppunkindie. Hard-hitting single for a band still hungry and exploring new ways after 11 albums. “We wrote the idea of the song on just an acoustic guitar but the song transformed to a pop-punk anthem in the studio. Lyric is about growing up together with a friend and then drifting apart, with new ideals and directions in life.”
Jenn Nucum – “Get Better”
Country: Canada
Genre: Indie Pop
From the Artist: “Emerging Toronto-based Filipinx singer-songwriter Jenn Nucum’s EP, Get Better, is an exploration of diverse soundscapes ranging from lush, orchestral pop to soaring, cinematic post-rock. This collection of songs was drawn from inner reflections, re-evaluating oneself, analyzing society at large, and sitting with discomfort to dig deep into the injustices and inequities surfaced by a global pandemic. The EP’s title track, a stripped back ballad which hums with intensity, captures a yearning and desire to ‘get better’ as people––to exercise self-compassion and take care of each other collectively. Collective healing is the core theme of Get Better, which can only occur through looking at the societal wounds inflicted by broken systems, institutions, and obsolete authority created by capitalism, colonization, and white supremacy. “
Child Seat – “Burning”
Country: US
Genre: Indie Rock
From the Artist: “The song “Burning” refers to the 2021 Caldor wildfire that threatened Mathews’ hometown and wiped-out hundreds of thousands of acres of land that she’d hiked and traversed throughout her youth as well as a small nearby town. “Burning” is a reminder that life throws us curveballs, including losing the things we love most. Nothing is set in stone, and nothing lasts forever. With the 2020 pandemic, it often especially felt like one roadblock after another was arising. Yet, the world keeps turning and life/time keeps charging forward even when the going gets tough. We are all handed various experiences and even though it can feel like heavy and unwarranted lessons, it often makes us appreciate the good things/little things while they are with us.”
Two Late To The Party – “All I Want Is Love”
Country: Canada
Genre: Singer Songwriter
From the Artist: Two Late To The Party’s new track, “All I Want Is Love” was written as an honest response to the uncertainty we have all faced in the past two years. It attempts to define and hold onto what I was certain about; and that was to love and be loved.
Biff – “Millennials”
Country: US
Genre: Indie Rock
From the Artist: “Biff is composed of two former members of indie rock surfers The Yetis, who raised the eyebrows of the industry in the late 2010s, opening for The Drums and Hinds at Baby’s All Right and earning features in NME, DIY and Far Out Magazine with well over half a million views on Soundcloud. Far Out Magazine wrote that their “sharp-witted, silver tongued, piece of gently nuanced pop” has “that Midas touch and could herald in a new golden age of pop music.” DIY magazine described the sound as “‘50s-indebted” and “sweet tasting” “taking notes from Alex Turner’s sentiment-first songwriting.” All of these elements and more are present in the newest release from Biff.”
Staples – “Optimist”
Country: Australia
Genre: Alt Rock
From the Artist: “‘Optimist’ channels our Indie Rock and Post Punk influences to create an energetic, passionate and intricate sound, while still maintaining its sing-along quality. It touches on concepts of introspection, relationships and one’s outlook on life as a whole, achieved in a boppy and accessible format.”
Whiteley – “Scenarios”
Country: Canada
Genre: Alt Rock
From the Artist: “Scenarios is about having that one person that you can see in all of your life’s scenarios.”
The Pomelos – “Twenty Feet Tall”
Country: US
Genre: Garage Rock
From the Artist: “This song was inspired after I purchased a really nice scented candle Home Goods.”
Sleeplings – “Light Leaks”
Country: Denmark
Genre: Indie Rock
From the Artist: “Light Leaks is a love anthem from a hovering and weightless perspective. About finding peace in the present and meaning in all the elusive and decadent. We only have each other on loan. “
Filthy – “Part of the Process”
Country: Greece
Genre: Alt Rock
From the Artist: “This is the first single of our upcoming debut LP (TBR this Fall) It attempts to describe a situation of losing control over emotions of oneself in a delirious dancy-ritualistic vibe.”
Doo Crowder – “Already Gone”
Country: US
Genre: Rock
From the Artist: “This song is about the abrupt loss meaning in its own creation. Part of a series of songs about (not) making a living from inspiration, it touches on the idea of giving up on dreams & the ways that affects sense of self. The changing instrumentation & toggling production values reflect the different moods of a crisis. E.g. the intro was recorded on a reel to reel 4 track & the autotune chorus vocals were straight to digital while the drums in the chorus were recorded on a 16 track tape & the verse drums on 4 track, by different drummers on different kits. I always thought that just because a chord pattern of a verse, for example, might repeat there was no reason the instrumentation or production style shouldn’t change. also, i like the way it sounds”
The High Loves – “Make My Life A Movie”
Country: Canada
Genre: Indie Rock
From the Artist: “The High Loves are a pop-rock band from Canada’s creative capital, Toronto. Formed in 2018, the five-piece group is composed of lead singer and guitarist Noah Monckton, lead guitarist Marko Stojanovic, keyboardist Jeremy Ugro, bassist Jake St Jean, and drummer Jaden Spanier. Their music is the sonic equivalent of waking up in a good mood – a tight blend of danceable hooks, soaring vocals, guitar that heals as it squeals and 80s-authentic synth, knotted together in an addictive, unstoppable march. These are songs for every summer: for belting on road trips, for singing into a shower head, and for playing loud, when you just need to feel good.”
Alice Merton – “Loveback”
Country: Germany
Genre: Alt Rock
From the Artist: “Alice says, “‘Loveback’ talks about waking up one day and realising someone has stolen a part of you that you want back.It was the realisation that I didn’t ‘need’ anyone to exist. I was never dependent on anyone or anything, even if it at times felt like it. I felt like I was handing out something I was rarely getting back. At some point I felt like I had forgotten why I’m doing what I’m doing, and felt like I had lost sight of what’s really important to me.”
