Silverstein announce European/UK tour dates

June 20, 2022

Not many bands, turning their 22nd round in the scene, can say about themselves that they “have just started”, like punk veterans Silverstein. The release of their 10th studio record “Misery Made Me”, starts a new high, which is based on their success over the last year: Their last record (2020’s A Beautiful Place To Drown) added the band 80 million streams to 500 million plays in all on their account. The long-player was nominated as “rock album of the year” at the esteemed Juno awards and their last headline tour through the coolest venues was almost completely sold out. With the birth of “Misery Made Me” Silverstein increased their already extensive influence: Through the adaption of new technologies like TikTok, Discord, NFTs, the metaverse, and Twitch (which the band even used for public writing sessions with the fans) the band has proven their unique ability to adapt innovations at all stages of their career. Interestingly there are – as the title suggests – in all the positivity and unity, that went into the creation [Read More]

Ice Nine Kills announce new tours for the US and Europe

June 13, 2022

Like the undead slashers celebrated in their songs, Ice Nine Kills return with “The Silver Scream 2: Welcome to Horrorwood”, a sequel of gruesome movie-sized proportion to their No. 1 Billboard Hard Rock Album, “The Silver Scream. Welcome to Horrorwood” carves out a fresh, bloody homage to the VHS celluloid classics that possessed singer Spencer Charnas at an early age, with a devilish new twist. Ice Nine Kills make music both timeless and timely, mixing metal, hardcore, and punk, with accessible power. New hard-rock-meets-horror anthems like “Hip to be Scared”, “Assault & Batteries” and “Take Your Pick” demonstrate Spencer’s fascination with fright, obsession with pop culture, and his expertise with inescapably wicked melodic hooks and clever twists of phrase. Drew Fulk (A Day To Remember, As I Lay Dying, Emmure) produced “The Silver Scream” and returns for “Welcome To Horrorwood”. Guests on this album include Jacoby Shadix (Papa Roach), Georg “Corpsegrinder” Fisher (Cannibal Corpse), Brandon Saller (Atreyu), Ryan Kirby (Fit For A King), and Buddy Nielson (Senses Fail). The record combines melodies, riffs, and the [Read More]

Caroline Kingsbury Shares single, “Kissing Someone Else” (Josh Lumsden Remix)

June 10, 2022

Los Angeles indie-pop songstress Caroline Kingsbury shares “Kissing Someone Else” (Josh Lumsden Remix). The track is a dance remix on the original hit and serves as the focus track off her brand new remix EP, Remixes From Heaven. Speaking on the brand new project, Caroline wrote:“Heaven’s Just A Remix is the dreamy echo of my debut album Heaven’s Just A Flight. I took some of my fan’s favorite songs off the album and either stripped them down or completely flipped the instrumentation to create an entirely new version. After releasing my debut during COVID I wanted to make sure I also included a dance version of Kissing Someone Else (remix by Josh Lumsden) just in time for Pride 2022.” Check out the new single here: CAROLINE KINGSBURY LIVE^ June Residency at Berlin (NYC)June 2 – New York, NY – Berlin (9:30 PM) ^June 9 – New York, NY – Berlin (Doors 9:30 PM) ^June 16 – New York, NY – Berlin (Doors 9:30 PM) ^ Make sure to visit the social media sites and stay up to date on the latest news.

The Suffers new album and check out their set at BottleRock Napa

June 9, 2022

Gulf Coast soul band The Suffers took the crowd by storm with their set at BottleRock Napa 2022. The crowd went wild for their high energy groovin set. They instantly had the crowd on their feet and dancing around. Check out some photos from their set: The Suffers released their new album It Starts With Love via Missing Piece Records on June 3rd. The song features their song, Nunya which frontwoman Kam Franklin describes: “‘Nunya’ is a song about just a few of the hardships, lessons, wins and losses we have experienced in our 11 years together as a band. I wrote it in Nashville after experiencing a really bad day filled with big promises, gaslighting, and deceitful behavior from an industry big whig. Instead of letting the moment get the best of me, I decided to fight back via song. ‘Nunya’ allowed me to air some industry grievances, confront the trauma that came with having our gear stolen a few years back, and it gave me my power back. We recorded most of it with [Read More]
