Punk Rockers Heart Attack Man release new track Spit

February 20, 2025

Rising Punk rockers Heart Attack Man kicked off my day with release of their new track, Spit. The song delivers a great one-two punch as frontman Eric shares, “This song is a go-for-the-throat, tongue in cheek lashing out against the use of generative artificial intelligence in the creative process, as I think it signals the death of ones own inherent creativity.” It is a killer track that will get you pumping and tap into that rage we all hold! The Cleveland Ohio trio, Eric Egan [vocals, guitar], Adam Paduch [drums], and Ty Sickels [guitar] are set to release their fourth full length LP, Joyride the Pale Horse on April 25th which will include this new song.

The Flatliners announce new album and share first single

May 29, 2022

The Flatliners celebrate their 20-years-anniversary. There is no better way to do that than kicking the doors in with a brand-new record and a massive list of tour dates. The new single “Performative Hours” creates an appetite for more. With the new record, the band also returns to Fat Wreck. “There’s a desperation that’s run rampant within us as people, and it’s the need to be validated,’ shares Chris about the new song. “A shadow of what’s really real, a version of the truth, a performance at all hours. As the world around us grows more mechanically able to connect, we as people will abuse that power to simply brag or complain, feverishly attempting to create a moment instead of just enjoying one. It feels as though we’ve found ourselves in an age of insincerity, with people putting in the hours for nothing more than upholding an image. Time now ticks in performative hours”. The upcoming new record “New Ruin” will be released August 5th. It can be pre-ordered HERE. Track Listing 1. Performative Hours [Read More]

Cold Years announce new record and share new single “32”

March 5, 2022

Scottish band Cold Years just announced their 2nd album “Goodbye To Misery” for April 22nd, 2022. They also shared their new single/video “32”. “32” is Cold Years’ signature “Welcome To The Black Parade” that fuses MCR, Green Day and Queen into a theatrical punk rock anthem. “32 is our ‘fuck it, let’s just run away’ song that best conveys the message of the album. It’s about overcoming difficulties and growing as a person.” “32 came out of nowhere. We wanted to do something different and really explore our sound. In the first few months of lockdown, I really struggled with loneliness. I didn’t feel at home in my home and I was fed up with it. This is our ‘Screw it, let’s just run away’ track and best expresses the album’s message, which is about overcoming difficulties and growing as a person, facing all your fears and insecurities, and realizing that you can do it is not alone. It’s so different from anything we’ve done before and to be honest, we had to do it. [Read More]

The Linda Lindas present new song/video “Talking To Myself”

March 2, 2022

Los Angeles-based punk band The Linda Lindas presented the video for their new song “Talking To Myself” from their highly anticipated debut record “Growing Up”.  The black and white music video was created by producer Ryan Baxley and is a playful homage to the classic Twilight Zone-episode “Living Doll”. Lucia de la Garza from the band says about the song: “The song is about the spiral you get into, when you are alone. You start to question yourself and every decision you have made. I always look back on conversations and think: “Oh, I should have said this , I should have said that.” But it’s also about needing other people, not only to quiet down, but because we all learned from the pandemic, that we need other people to talk to, to keep sane.” Last month The Linda Lindas announced their debut album with a video produced by Humberto Leon for the title track “Growing Up“, which Rolling Stone praised as “catchy and danceable” and said “you can imagine, how teenagers shout it out [Read More]
