March 4, 2024

February 29th was a special day. No, not that it is leap year! It was the night that Cherry Glazerr returned to San Francisco.  Noise Pop brought us a great show Thursday  night at August Hall.  The sold out show kicked off with an impressive set from Wombo and got the crowd riled up. Check out photos from their set by our Rockin Ryan: The crowd kept up on coming in and packed the house as Cherry Glazerr hit the stage. The intensity was infectious as the band gave 150% to their fans.  There was a mighty mosh pit in the front that couldn’t help themselves as the music was just so damn inviting! The great thing about the Noise Pop festivals is that they bring a wide audience ranging in age from teens to seasoned fans.  One thing was certain everyone in August Hall was having the time of their life.

Hey Violet releases angsty new track, Uncomplicated for Valentine’s Day

February 14, 2024

What better way to celebrate Valentine’s Day than cranking up the new track Uncomplicated from Hey Violet. The band released the angsty new track today. Rena Lovelis comments about the new song, “This song was a way to call out my own distorted thinking in relationships… a sort of reckoning for what I chase and why I chase it. I remember when I was 16 years old and I was dating someone who was just a total sweetheart, and I was bored out of my mind. It really had nothing to do with that person; it was the volatility that Nia and I grew up witnessing that then transgressed into my relationships later on.”   “Uncomplicated was initially written by us, our friend Robbie Hiser, and an artist friend for their project, but we ended up loving the song and asked if we could have it for this album. The lyrics really feel like a harsh spotlight on my thinking and we thought it was an important part of the album as a whole. It [Read More]

January 24, 2024

GHOST ATLAS, the melodic, alt-rock side project of ERRA guitarist/vocalist Jesse Cash, will release the new album “Dust of the Human Shape” this friday, January 26 via UNFD. An intensely personal project, every conceptual part of Ghost Atlas’ music, lyrics, and visuals are an intentional outpouring of Cash’s mind. “Dust of the Human Shape” marks the first time Cash is releasing music for the project with a partner. The album also serves as the follow up to a collection of self-released albums: “Sleep Therapy: An Acoustic Performance” (2019), “All is in sync, and there’s nothing left to sing about” (2017), “Immortal Youth” (2015) and “Gold Soul Coma” (2013). The 12 tracks illustrate the internal world of Cash’s fervor and ideology, while allowing the listener to find their own connective interpretation. “Dust of the Human Shape” is a culmination of art and tense human emotions, fueled by a spectrum of life experiences. Today, Cash shared the single “Lesser Gods“. Regarding the music, he says “My goal when starting the instrumental for ‘Lesser Gods’ was to commit [Read More]

Midas Fall release new single “Monsters”

January 18, 2024

Midas Fall have shared the 2nd single from their long-awaited fifth studio album, ‘Cold Waves Divide Us’ which is set for release on 8th March 2024 via Monotreme Records. “Monsters” is the second single from “Cold Waves Divide Us”, the fifth studio album from Scottish alt/post/progressive-rock trio Midas Fall. On “Monsters”, the band shows a more contemplative side, with an ethereal intro giving way to gorgeously syncopated guitar and drums. Says Elizabeth Heaton, The monsters I sing about in this song are the intrusive, anxiety ridden thoughts that decide to rear their ugly heads from time to time, especially when you least expect it, just to remind you that you never truly have full control. There is a feeling of defeat and submission in this song, juxtaposed with the idea that the act of writing the words and music itself can be the resolution” The single is accompanied by a video from producer David Gregory of Cineoteric Films, featuring the band members. Describing the approach he took to the video, David recounts, “Liz explained to [Read More]

The Last Dinner Party deliver a pure night of ecstatic revelry at the El Rey Theatre

November 14, 2023

  November 6th, 2023 was a night that will go down in our music history.  We travelled from San Francisco to attend the first Los Angeles show of The Last Dinner Party at the El Rey Theatre.  The show was sold out and was one of only 5 US shows on their tour. This was a night not to be missed. We first heard The Last Dinner Party on our local radio station Live 105 as they were featuring up and coming bands.  They played Nothing Matters and we were hooked from the first listen. We voraciously searched for more information on this English band and sat in sadness as they didn’t have any shows yet in the US.  We spent months playing their songs and wishing for a time to catch them live. Then they announced their 5 US tour dates and we immediately booked our trip.  We were sure to be in attendance for this event! The Last Dinner Party is made up of  powerhouse females that deliver a baroque-pop-rock style that is [Read More]
