Poolhouse – “Sour”

Country: US

Genre: Indie Rock

From the Band:  “Summer isn’t over yet and pop-rock band Poolhouse is soaking up every second. While it may not be your typical summer love anthem, their new hit “Sour” presents a rhythmic glimpse into reality because after all…not every summer fling is meant to last. When summer love turns sour, this dynamic quartet drives the conversation with bright guitars and driving bass lines fit for mainstream radio waves. From Provo, UT, Poolhouse is stirring things up out west by tapping into musical influences like Coin, The 1975 and Radiohead. Bandmates Jonny, Jake, Jackson and Lucas are leading the way toward their debut EP release, one undeniable bop at a time.”


Mud Grief – “Worn Out”

Country: Sweden

Genre: Alt Rock

From the Band: “Worn Out is a song written and recorded by the Gothenburg band Mud Grief. Together with the song “Vicious Valerie it’s a part of Mud Griefs debut single “Worn Out / Vicious Valerie” due to be released on the 9th of September. The band itself (Mud Grief) consists of four 17-19 year olds with a big passion for music. The main theme of the song is frustration against our hierarchical and unjust society. This can be heard in the lyrics but it can also be felt in the explosive and driven attitude of the song.”


All Them Squares – “Sleep”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

From the Band: “This is all about being restless and unhappy in your own life. Our lead singer wrote this primarily about being restless their whole life about being non-binary and coming out about it and the video depicts it in a very impactful way as well. Strong lyrics are backed up by huge guitar riffs and well polished vocals.”


Love Hounds – “The Furious Noise”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

From the Band: “Lead Single The Furious Noise fixes a transgressive gaze right back at the money-over-every thing capitalism, and the bosses and landlords reaping the benefits. The song builds on its haunting melody and Brooks’ rasping croons like a rallying cry or a dark nursery rhyme. Either way, it’s a warning, “We are coming.”


The Other Each Other – “Love Hounds”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

From the Band: “Loose Nets is a companion song to Blank Space, which also appears on the recently released LP Mirror Memorials. The pair of songs focuses on the role devices play in our lives, both good and bad, destructive yet enabling. Loose Nets sounds like Unwound and Of Montreal on a short walk.” 


Methods – “Twisted Demeanour”

Country: UK

Genre: Garage Rock

From the Band: “It all began in a garage in the depths of Dartmoor. A blues guitarist and a metal drummer conjoined forces to create the powerhouse riff heavy sound that is METHODS and a debut album entitled “FeedTheWolf” encapsulated the tribulations of coming of age through trauma. Fast forward to current affairs and you’ll find an infectious hip shaking glam groove, retaining their riff heavy power with nail biting- ear scratching guitar tone and enormity of depth from just two instruments, paired with playful lyrics to be found on their new single Twisted Demeanour.” 


lund – “Good Advice”

Country: US

Genre: Americana

From the Band: “On September 2nd, Asheville, NC-based band lund will release “Good Advice,” the latest from their debut LP, Right This Time, out on Sept. 9th. The song explores that teetering point in a relationship that’s on its last legs, that point where one of you has had it up to here and it’s time to fish or cut bait. “Your game is moving way too slow / this ground is higher than you know / sit back and take some good advice / don’t let this heartache turn to ice,” she sings, the momentum-pushing words echoing the song’s chugging rhythm.”


Slowfade – “Shine”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

From the Band: “Blend of alternative rock, hard rock, electronic, 80’s influence. Drummer Kellii Scott from the alt space rock band failure”


Luke Warm and the Cold Ones – “Paradise Lost”

Country: Canada

Genre: Americana

From the Band: “Luke Warm and The Cold Ones are sharing a nostalgic and reflective single, the alternative and folk rock inflected “Paradise Lost.” Written by lead singer Greg Chomut after visiting a friend he hadn’t seen in a while, the song’s lyrics flowed out of him. Emotive guitars, earnest vocals, and the violin skills of Dreamhouse Studios’ Kara MacKinlay create a melancholic overture that illustrates the importance of caring for what you have before it’s too late.” 


The Lost Weekend – “What’s My Dream”

Country: Denmark

Genre: Alt Rock

From the Band: “What’s My Dream is the 4th track by the band from the upcoming debutalbum due september 30th where they also will be supporting The Editors at Store Vega – one of Copenhagens finest venues. Yet again the band proves to be heavy influenced by 90s alt rock bands such as bands as Dinosaur JR, Stone Roses, My Bloody Valentine a.o. They have already received appraisel for their live performances and got a 5-star review by Gaffa of their debut concert at Loppen in May and worked together with canadian filmmaker Jake de Hoop on a recent released music video. “


John McCabe – “Hold The Mist”

Country: US

Genre: Americana

From the Artist: “”Hold the Mist” is the 2nd Single from my EP “No One Ever Says”; a slight departure – leaning more toward Alt-Country (Mando, 12-string, slide) compared to the other tunes on the project.” 


The Gas – “Angel”

Country: US

Bruvvy – “Sorry for These Feelings”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

From the Band: ” I wrote this song when my boyfriend was offered to be the touring guitar player for an up & coming band. As happy as I was for him, my self-esteem plummeted. He was being flown out to LA and meeting my idols, while I was crashing at his place because I had no job and no place to live. I felt extremely guilty for being jealous of his career, and my emotions eventually boiled over. I wrote this song once I hit rock bottom, and it reminded me why I started playing music in the first place.” 


Sun Puddle – “Sunday”

Country: US

Genre: Grunge

From the Band:  “PNW Rock/ Grunge highlighting the difficulties making a living in the modern landscape of the music industry.”
