Steph Something – “Filthy”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: It’s obviously about how I feel about our government right now and how we keep electing people into office who never ever do anything for us. It’s all become a charade and it’s embarrassing and ridiculous.

Vast Robot Armies – “What Have You Done Lately?”
Country: Canada
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: This was the first song written/demoed for the album. The chimes you hear at the intro are from the deck chimed in my backyard – recorded through my ipad garageband set-up. It was one of those songs that really helped frame the initial direction of the album sonically. It wasn’t until stella panacci added her background vocals that the song really settled into itself.

Cam Blake – “Gravity”
Country: Canada
Genre: Indie Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: “‘Gravity’ is about emerging from an emotional slump. Feeling more confident than you ever have. Appreciating the life that you have been given. You want to dance and be in the sun. But even within this massive high, you still notice that gnawing feeling at that back of your psyche telling you it’s only temporary.”

Symposium – “I Like To”
Country: UK
Genre: Indie Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: Previously only available on a limited-edition vinyl single, ’I Like To’ opens the album – an explosion of punk intent, it’s one of the first songs the band ever wrote and played together, and also opened the demo tape sent to London venues to get the band their first gigs in 1995.

King Nun – “OCD”
Country: UK
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: With its discordant guitars and body horror lyrics, which draw from those early influences of Sonic Youth and Pixies but never treads familiar ground. “I think there was a good two years where I had an incredible bout of health anxiety that at every turn nearly put a stop to my life,” says Theo about the song. “I was really struggling with everything you could imagine and the simplest thing became massive and complicated because I was over analysing my well being physically and emotionally. It was winding into this weird obsessive compulsive something.” The result is something twisted and dark, drawing the same compulsive mindset, and proving King Nun to be a band capable of losing ties to any one genre.

Outer Control – “Revolution”
Country: Australia
Genre: Skate Punk
Words From the Artist/PR: This is a song written for those who stand up against oppression and fight for freedom and liberty

The Supplements – “Different Light”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: Written at the beginning of a turbulent two year relationship for the band’s singer/guitarist and recorded near its end, Different Light highlights the pain of love. A pain apparent in the delivery of the chorus vocals, dangerously close to the top of his range. The lyrics mull over the feelings of rejection that can truly sting you in a one sided relationship as you hopelessly wish for things to improve. Musically, the track alternates between dynamic levels with softer verses built on a syncopated bass line and drum groove and louder choruses featuring driving guitars and passionate vocals. The rhythm section drops out momentarily in the bridge leaving just the singer and his guitar at a self-reflective lyrical turn just before the guitar solo at the climax of the song takes us to its conclusion.

Metrophobia – “Disconnect Me”
Country: Switzerland
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: In a world dominated by screens and constant connection, this song encapsulates the moment when someone says, ‘Enough is enough,’ and chooses to unplug from the chaos. It’s not just a song; it’s a declaration of independence from the digital frenzy.
