DEADSET – “The Art of Pointscoring”
Country: UK
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist: “The song is an earnest outlook on the toxic environment that can be birthed when you’re struggling to coordinate mental health issues. The apathy you experience in which you feel empathy but struggle to act upon it. It’s an ugly subject but writing about it in a vulnerable and genuine way helps to process and accept your own falsities and mistakes. But also accepting a situation you can’t change when someone else is feeling the same. Accepting both parties can make mistakes. It can help me learn vulnerability and forgive others, whilst also learning how to change bad behavior patterns myself.”

Star Matriarch – “You’re Free (With Me)”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist: Sex workers are, in fact, providers of care. Carol’s guttural vocal delivery of “You’re Free With Me” sounds as much as it is for herself as it does for her clients, however. Her signature agitated guitar and booming drums seem to back this up, making the track a gusty and gutsy endeavor. As nurturing as she is ferocious, Star Matriarch gives the listener permission to relinquish their own shame and doubt.

Against The Sun – “JAD”
Country: US
Genre: Rock
Words From the Artist: Gun violence has taken too many lives. Shootings happen so often that many don’t know how to react anymore. They should never be normal, never be ‘just another day.’ Our new single JAD is a plea for audiences to empathize with victims and their families each and every time. We also welcome Seth from Chasing Desolation on vocals, an LA Hard Rock juggernaut who brings his ferocity to this track.

Nathan Doyle – “Healing”
Country: Canada
Genre: Rock
Words From the Artist: Growing up as a confused loser was hard. I learned to bottle up all my feelings because I had no one who would listen. But now, as I try to heal the scars of my past, I mess up sometimes, I push people away, and I forget who I am. “Healing” is for blasting in the car with friends – it’s a hopeful frustration – I’ll heal one day – it just won’t be today. To bring that energy out, the song features Canadian legend Dave Genn on bass and amazing drummer from Carly Rae Jepson’s band, Nik Pešut.

Encore – “DONE”
Country: Canada
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist: “We wanted to bring back the feeling of nostalgia that music can give you – one of complete submersion into a track where you’re singing at the top of your lungs in your bedroom, or even in the car,” says Donald. “‘DONE’ gives us that opportunity to emotionally connect, giving 100% of ourselves to express thoughts and feelings through a few simple words.”

After facing my own trials and tribulations during the pandemic, it’s me laughing in the face of adversity with a new-found confidence.”
