February 21, 2025

With the approach of their 25th anniversary, acclaimed Canadian rock band Silverstein took to the deserts of Joshua Tree to challenge themselves in more ways than ever before. The result is the band’s most eclectic and prolific body of work yet: “Antibloom” / “Pink Moon”. A double album that draws from across Silverstein’s diverse influences, “Antibloom” is released today, February 21, 2025 via UNFD, with “Pink Moon” to follow later in the year. “In 2025 we will be celebrating 25 years as band. For a milestone this large, we felt it deserved the largest campaign of our career,” the band shares. “We felt incredibly inspired and put everything we’ve learned / felt / experienced into this double album. They say it takes an artist their whole life to write their debut album, but with starting this band so young, it felt like it took 25 years to write ‘Antibloom’ / ‘Pink Moon’ — the absolute collection of our musical style and ideas we’ve pioneered over these years.” Sam Guaiana (NECK DEEP, HOLDING ABSENCE, BAYSIDE) produced [Read More]

Crown The Empire share new single “Black Sheep”

March 23, 2023

Post-metalcore quartet, Crown The Empire share the next single from their forthcoming fifth studio album DOGMA out April 28th via RiseRecords. “Black Sheep,” joins previously released “DOGMA,” “Immortalize,” “In Another Life” featuring Spiritbox’s Courtney LaPlante, and “Dancing With The Dead.” “We’ve tackled many lofty ideas with the singles we’ve released thus far but with ‘Black Sheep’ we wanted to bring it back down to earth to our early days as a band. When we were playing together in a garage and making songs with a “fuck you” attitude, just for the sake of doing it,” shares vocalist Andy Leo. “We kept that spirit alive with ‘Black Sheep’ and aim to provide a solid 3:52 seconds of in-your-face energy that young crown would’ve loved. We hope you love it too.” DOGMA, produced and mixed by ZachJones (Fever 333, Poorstacy, Scene Queen, Nova Twins), is a diverse album fueled by angst, existential identity, isolation, and determination. Over the last three years, the band took time to reflect on personal and collective priorities. This introspection is reflected lyrically [Read More]

Casey return with new single “Great Grief”

December 6, 2022

Welsh post-hardcore-legends Casey return after a four year hiatus with their mind-blowing new single “Great Grief”, which is released via Hassle Records. Singer Tom Weaver on the song: “For the five of us it’s something special. It was the first piece of music we wrote collectively after deciding that we wanted to do this again, and it felt like an organic progression when it came together. Musically we wanted to maintain an anchor in the familiar, but challenge ourselves to produce a more mature and expansive sound. We put a lot of thought into the sound design, adding layers and harmonies – all things we’d not really put much effort into previously. Lyrically, the song talks about the realisation I came to after reflecting on our time as a band following our break-up. When we announced we were drawing Casey to a close, I’d tunnelled on the immediate personal impact of my writing, and how it felt like I was proliferating my pain by repeating it each night. But I’m in a much better place [Read More]

Armor For Sleep – new album “The Rain Museum” out NOW

September 11, 2022

It’s been 15 years since the last record from Armor For Sleep, but the band has remained a staple of many of their fans’ daily listening routine. Last Friday, the seminal post-hardcore act made their highly-anticipated return with “The Rain Museum”, a 12-song collection that is equal part beautiful and devastating. The band also shared their new single “New Rainbows”. About two months ago, the band released their first new song in 15 years. “How Far Apart” is an evocative anthem sure to leave fans feeling it in the pit of their stomach as lead singer, Ben Jorgensen, belts “you used to be my home, I found you in my bones” in the track’s immediately addictive chorus. “How Far Apart” is full of the emotive, hard-hitting drums and reverb-soaked guitars that were so pivotal to the success of “What To Do When You Are Dead”, but with the maturity, one would expect from an artist of Jorgensen’s caliber after years refining his craft. For the official video, which debuted alongside the song, Armor For Sleep [Read More]
