January 16, 2025

Kellin Quinn of Sleeping With Sirens has just released his debut single for his solo project HAUNTED MOUTHS. He will be releasing a full album titled A Collection of Greetings on February 14th via Rise Records. A release on Valentine’s Day is perfect since this album is truly a love letter, both figuratively and literally. Reading Julia Cameron’s 1992 self-help book, The Artist’s Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity, kickstarted a new approach in Kellin’s songwriting. This new record is a romantic love letter, literally and figuratively, and a celebration of life’s rich complexity. It’s a singular experience, with each song demanding a listen to the next. Haunted Mouths wraps an invitingly familiar voice in powerful, dreamlike soundscapes. Brimming with atmosphere and mood, the name pays homage to the cemetery near Kellin Quinn’s childhood home. The first single to be released is the opening track, Further Til We Disappear and delivers a sound and style much different from his previous work. He brings to life a dark synth wave blended with shoe gaze and ambient, [Read More]

January 16, 2025

One of our favorite bands, The Velveteers have just released a killer new single along with a new video for their song, Bound to Leather. The track is off their upcoming full length album, A Million Knives which is set for a February 14th release via Easy Eye Sound. About the track, frontwoman Demi Demitro comments, “To me, ‘Bound In Leather’ feels like looking through a kaleidoscope. t’s a song about feeling bound in your skin, the chorus in part being inspired by a type of dysphoria. Feeling trapped by your own skin and wishing you weren’t bound by its limitations here on earth. It also has many themes of feeling guarded and needing someone to prove their trust to you, ’cause they aren’t going to win it over so easily. When we started coming up with the lyrics, I was singing and Dan kept telling me to sing higher and higher. Singing falsetto is something I don’t normally do but it just felt really right for the song. Check out the new [Read More]
