Nothing But A Nightmare – “Baggage Claim”
Country: US
Genre: Pop Rock
From the Artist: “Baggage Claim is NBN’s return to writing songs. Here’s our attempt to join the punk rock resurgence.”
Mad Radio – “Super Girl”
Country: US
Genre: Pop Rock
From the Artist: “‘Super Girl’ is written from a Gen X perspective, so there’s a pronounced nostalgia in both the music and the accompanying video,’ explains Mad Radio. The band, who consist of Brad Osborne, Jeff Mulrennan and Greg Matheny, are of the Gen X generation themselves, reuniting after a 36 year hiatus. The hard-hitting opening riff of ‘Super Girl’ is unmissable, alongside the beating pulse of the drum groove. The dynamic track takes listeners on a journey with crunching guitars, pounding rhythms and the growling vocal of lead singer Brad Osborne. Lyrically, the song is a reflection of the title, swapping gender roles and transforming ‘super man’ into a ‘super girl.’ Integrated throughout the track is the voice of a woman taking charge, ‘step aside please’ she croons before the second verse takes off. The melodic hook of ‘Super girl, she’s a super girl’ is memorable and captivating, and it’s easy to imagine the charisma of this track performed live on stage to a screaming audience.”
UN // Real – “Never Again”
Country: US
Genre: Hard Rock
From the Artist: “Never Again is a hard rock jam with a melodic twist.”
My Cousin’s Girlfriend’s House – “Wasting Away”
Country: US
Genre: Post-Punk
From the Artist: “The track has an aggressive, energetic vibe featuring melodic guitars, intricate yet slamming drums and a passionate vocal delivery. The lyrics touch on the monotony of a desk job and the roadblocks of taking a non-traditional path in a corporation-dominated America. “
Shady Oaks – “Numb”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
From the Artist: “This track is a re recording from our debut EP “Dazed”. With a top tier recording studio at our disposal, we decided to re track and produce the hell out of our old EP. This track will be on our debut album in the fall of 2022.”
Siobamm – “Meat Machine”
Country: Canada
Genre: Alt Rock
From the Artist: “When I made my last EP in isolation, I spent a lot of time reflecting on my sexuality and I realized I am not completely gay and am actually attracted to men. This track is me owning my bisexual thirstiness, while also accepting my physical insecurities. The best sex happens when people are vulnerable, so I created a song reflecting on some of my weird body fixations and asking “who wants to fuck?”. I feel like years of being very forward in gay relationships has made me very blunt and not afraid to ask for what I want.”
Back of a Car – “I Wish My Hands Were Your Bra”
Country: US
Genre: Indie Rock
From the Artist: “Back of a Car’s take on indie rock takes all the harshness and shrill noise that punk can muster and quickly turns it into soft and light, fit for a Chicago basement circa 1999. And that all happens within a single song. Forming in 2009 and performing under his own name for several years, guitarist and vocalist Kelley Williams picked up the moniker Back of a Car in 2014 and has had a rolodex of cast members ever since. ”
Bad Habits – “Bad Luck”
Country: Greece
Genre: Rock
From the Artist: “What do you do when bad luck hinders your band’s plans for the millionth time? You write a song about it. Clocking in less than 2.5 minutes, “Bad Luck” is a hard-hitting track in the vein of Motörhead, tried & tested live in the 20 gigs the band played all around Greece in the past few months, which gave Bad Habits the reputation as one of the hardest working acts in the local rock scene.”
The Bergamot – “Medusa”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
From the Artist: “The Bergamot are set to release the Summer Anthem “Medusa” on May 13th. After winning the Paris Independent Film Festival’s “Best Documentary Feature” including the original score the band is releasing a tune that is a part of that sound track of the film ‘State of the Unity” an award winning feature length film making its rounds of the Film Festival circuit. The Bergamot premiered the film at the Sedona International Film Festival where they won the “Excellence in Filmmaking Award”. The band will also be premiering the film and the score this June at the Richmond International Film Festival.”
OSEES – “Funeral Solution”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
From the Artist: “Osees don’t seem to mutate or morph so much as remain extraordinarily open to what moves them to do next and capable of getting music done that’s consistently good. What motivated the band to turn loose this hyper-concentrated slightly less than 22 minute burst of meteor density somewhat punkazoidal music? When it comes to the Osees, that’s at best a mediocre inquiry as they just do the next thing, genre, prevailing tastes or whatever influence might guide a lesser unit are not even a consideration. A Foul Form is a cool pivot from their 2020 studio efforts Metamorphosed, Panther Rotate and Protean Threat. A Foul Form vigorously shakes the Oseesetch a sketch clear so whatever comes next (which will probably be sooner than later) will likely be something completely different yet again. As far as a potential inspirational indicator, you might notice the final track on A Foul Form is a cover of Rudimentary Peni’s Sacrifice, which can be found on their Farce 7” released in 1982. A fitting way to blow out this rad slice.”
The Jaws of Brooklyn – “Sugar Sugar”
Country: US
Genre: Garage Rock
From the Artist: “Seattle-based band, The Jaws of Brooklyn is releasing the single, “Sugar Sugar” on May 17. Setting the stage for summertime, the single combines a bubble-gum shimmy, Motown soul, and garage grit into sonic harmony. It features Alabama Shakes/Brittney Howard background vocalists Shanay Johnson and Karita Law. It’s off the album, The Shoals, due out July 22.”
Club Panther Claw – “Kiss The Gun”
Country: New Zealand
Genre: Alt Rock
From the Artist: “One in the bush and two in the trees, kiss the gun and down on your knees. is a reference too a murder that happened in my small town (Ross) when I was boy, the victim was a vagrant that lived in the forest just outside of the town, the Music is my take on what a modern shoegaze band might sound like, Thanks for your time.”
Burn The Louvre – “Driving In The Rain”
Country: Canada
Genre: Folk Rock
From the Artist: “”Driving In The Rain” is about exactly that. I wrote it after a fight my ex-girlfriend & I had where I literally drove down in the pouring rain to go see her to apologize and try to fix things afterwards (I did, temporarily). I love the metaphor that comes from comparing driving in inclement weather to that of weathering a storm. I also love the play on words in the title on the phrase “driving rain”. Although we were busy weathering our own emotional storm, I still couldn’t help but appreciate the pathetic fallacy of my situation. Of course it was raining that night.”
Kingfisher – “Radio City”
Country: Canada
Genre: Alt Rock
From the Artist: “A regretful apology to the victim of a young man’s poor judgement, wrapped around a powerhouse melody and an instantly memorable chorus.”
Jesus Coyote – “21st Century Tokyo Blues”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
From the Artist: “Jesus Coyote is an attitude and guitar driven garage rock trio out of Chicago, IL. Blending catchy hooks, powerful lyrics, and a raw and aggressive sound, the band delivers a high energy experience that is both familiar and undeniably new.”
