A single release from Sinistra delivers a unique brand of semi-theatrical progressive rock that manages to hit hard and all the right places but also gives a bit of a flowing undertone that adds vastness to the soundscape of the entire thing, and it still keeps elements of pop sensibility close at hand. The track is called "Symbol", and it is a very lush and full-bodied single but still has that spaciousness because of the way the rhythm and percussion come through. First of

If you're not too familiar with the music of Ricardo Maranhao, then let us be among the first to introduce you to the artist, as the artist has recently released a few singles that showcase a depth in songwriting and a flair for performance. We'll start with "Wait", which is absolutely a feel-good track from beginning to end. This song delivers quite a bright aesthetic, and it's completely spirited. This song is uplifting and bursting at the seams with soul. The vocal perform

A thrashing new album release from Birds on a Kill comes in swinging with a massive and sonically driving blend of metal and punk, complete with fierce guitar tones, animated vocals, and a rambunctious underbelly that shows face quite often. What are the things that really hit hardest about this record, aside from the guitar riffs, of course, is the energy of the entire thing. There's something about this record that makes you think of a live performance. It's almost like the

A fresh single release from ReeToxA gives off a slew of heavy rock approaches but absolutely holds on to that pop sensibility, giving off a catchy, repetitive chorus that gets embedded in your brain, and when the song is all over, you just walk around sort of singing it to yourself. One of the coolest things about this track is that it's got a little bit of sex drive behind it. The lyrics definitely paint a bit of a picture and are straightforward enough for you to catch the

A gorgeous new single from Ferdinand Rennie delivers a very robust soundscape that comes through with a theatrical undertone and is riddled with boisterous vocals that hit powerfully and impactfully throughout the song's course. This massive track is filled to the brim with lush instrumentation and loads of flowing vocals that really have a choir or even gospel soundscape, bringing those rises of intensity and emotion at just the right times. It's a beautifully written track

An album release dropped from Scarecrowz comes through with an amazing crossover of grunge, metal, alternative rock, and hints of hardcore, as the guitars give off a fierce approach and distortion, the drums portray some serious drive, and the entire record is built off of thriving energy that you can feel in your bones when you listen to this thing. The album is dubbed Husk, and it certainly doesn't waste a lot of time with the first track, "Clutter". Which comes right in wi

The new EP from Jet Lag Motel hits pretty hard but does so with a catchy pop feel, bringing together colorful, bright guitars with an edginess and delivering it all with an approach that makes it super easy to get into it all. Baythorne Days is a record that comes through with an addictive sound, rooted in a bit of a pop-rock style, but branching out into elements of alternative and even hints of punk. The hooks throughout this record can feel anthemic, and even a bit old sch

T.R. Burge & The Temple just dropped a debut single that comes through with a certain gracefulness in its performance, lush and flowing aesthetics and soundscapes, and this sort of sense of spiritual deepening. This track is something that would be considered a little bit of an edgy or gothic Americana approach, based on folk, but bringing this heavily cinematic backbone along with it. "Eagle Fly" boasts a full band sound, but with additional string sections that really had a

An EP release from NoirAddiction pulls together elements of industrial, alternative, and more to build these sorts of cinematic and spacious atmospheres coated with dark aesthetics, and the whole thing serves as an escape that can just pull you away from wherever you are and whatever you're doing and put you in this completely different headspace for a little chunk of time. This is a record that delivers layers. All kinds of textures and tones come together and fit like puzzl
