Skittish – “Mannequin”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist: This song was written after 2 years of dating in the Los Angeles scene. Mostly detailing bright and interesting people that become very performative, almost presenting a different personality, when the camera comes out. The influencer population is high in LA, and it gets old being an “Instagram Boyfriend.”

Cat Valley – “My Body”

Country: US

Genre: Garage Rock

Words From the Artist: “My Body”, with its emphatic pro-choice chorus, “My body, my choice,” was written by Flinn within weeks of the Supreme Court’s groundbreaking decision, and captures Flinn and Hegge’s searing vocal delivery, both vulnerable in grief and empowered in rage. Driving guitar and bass and tempo-pushing drums support Flinn’s gut-wrenching lyrics “You say I’m a murderer, a sinner, well then what the fuck are you? Your hands are red with all the blood of all the people who can’t choose” before the band pushes the frantic tempo past its limit into dystopian noise.

Matt Zaddy – “What Comes Around”

Country: Canada

Genre: Indie Rock

Words From the Artist:  This song is about the struggle to do what you love, with hope on the horizon. It is both a reflection to myself, and a conversation all at the same time. Many times in my life, I’ve kept myself busy and not notice the difficulty I am facing. When the day ends and my mind is clear, I find that the big questions show: ‘What does it all mean?, ‘What am I doing with my life?’, things like that. With some thought and reflection, I remember the victories I’ve had, the fun, the friends I’ve made, and why I started doing music in the first place. I wake up the next day with new confidence, inspiration and resolve to continue, no matter what comes around.

The Fires Below – “So It Goes”

Country: UK

Genre: Alt Metal

Words From the Artist: It’s one of our more punky, upbeat tracks. It might sound positive on a first impression but really it’s about how time is finite and it is constantly running out for all of us. It’s like a constant robbery you can’t do anything about so spend your time wisely.

Dead Hands – “The Moth”

Country: Denmark

Genre: Rock

Words From the Artist:  ‘The Moth’ is a song that describe the desire for power and control, and the metaphorical use of a moth to represent this desire. The lyrics talk about the pursuit of pleasure and the consequences of seeking it, as well as the idea of being controlled by outside forces.

Teenage Halloween – “Getting Bitter”

Country: US

Genre: Indie Rock

Words From the Artist: “This one is about feeling the peak of frustration with an addict family member. You’ve offered them all kinds of help in the past — emotional support, financial support, what have you — and realize that your help is fruitless without them first wanting to help themselves. And because you care for and love this person, you want to continue the support, but a bitter edge develops as they continue their self-destructive path. You grow somewhat resentful of this person who takes family and sobriety for granted, when in reality it’s not entirely their fault, so you’re left in an uncomfortable crossroad.”
