February 19, 2025

Rising folk-Americana pop artist Cloe Wilder has just released her latest single, “Tallahassee,” the opening track from her upcoming third EP, Life’s a Bitch. Set for release on March 21st, the EP is a six-song collection that highlights Wilder’s exquisite songwriting and storytelling, infused with raw emotion and unfiltered honesty.

The track beautifully captures the emotions tied to change, growth, and new beginnings, all wrapped in her signature intimate sound. Wilder comments about the track, “I wrote ‘Tallahassee’ last year with Theo and Jack. It was our very first session together and it was total magic. I was in the middle of moving to LA and I was experiencing a strange falling out with someone in my life. It was so shocking to me; I can usually see the end of a relationship coming. Theo and I were talking about my life and relationships, and I happened to mention Tallahassee, which is where [Read More]

So for the first time, they played at the Muffathalle. We only had to wait a year for TDWP to come back again. Last year they played with Landmvrks and promised to come back soon. Well, they kept their promise. The line-up for the night was Senna, Ocean Grove, Kingdom Of Giants and The Devil Wears Prada. Senna Senna, a relatively new band from Mannheim, Germany came first.

Set It Off live in Munich with Point North, Call Me Amour and TSS

February 16, 2025

It was a Monday night, not the typical day for a full-house event. Not so last week, when Set It Off came to our beautiful town of Munich. The tour had been announced months ago and it didn’t take long until the show was sold out. Last time they played here has been about a year ago, when they opened for I Prevail. It was a bigger lineup, four bands in all. All the more surprising, the venue was packed, when the first band, TSS from France, came on stage. TSS is a modern metal band. They play a mix of emo, metalcore, alternative rock, and synth elements. They’ve never been here before, but judging the crowd’s response, you wouldn’t have guessed that. The usually more calm audience was really moving to the catchy songs. The Sunday Sadness, short TSS, use french as well as english lyrics, which makes the songs a bit more special. The band signed to Fearless Records in 2024 and I’m sure they have an excellent future ahead. If you have [Read More]

Motionless In White – live in Munich

February 3, 2025

Motionless In White recently made a stop in Munich at the Tonhalle, during their “Scoring The End Of The World” tour. Though several band members had been sick that day, the band delivered an amazing performance. All the way through a 15 (!) song setlist, which left no fan wishes unanswered: Meltdown Sign Of Life Abigail Thoughts & Prayers Masterpiece Rats Voices Slaugtherhouse Werewolf Reincarnate Not My Type: Dead As Fuck 2 Scoring The End Of The World Soft Another Life Eternally Yours Compared to other sets on the European tour they only skipped two songs. Given that they had to cancel the next two shows due to the band having caught the flu, it was really remarkable. The show had sold out months ago and the crowd was hyped by the band’s performance, which they showed by singing along to every song and filling in some blanks, where Chris Motionless had to save his voice. The band’s tourmates also joined them for two songs – Ryan Kirby from Fit For A King joined the [Read More]

January 31, 2025

  L.S. Dunes release their sophomore album Violet via Fantasy Records. Frontmant Anthony Green shares, “The process of writing and recording this record took me someplace I’ve never been and showed me things I’ve never seen. There was a point where I was dead set on telling the story, but during the process of collaborating I started to realize that ‘Violet’ had taken all of us someplace different and showed us all different things and started to see something bigger than just my experience. “I will say that this record might be here to reflect back on whatever it is you go looking for in music because music is magic and magic is real. Music is magic.” Today they have released a music video for the new single Forgiveness. Travis Stever shares: “This is a song that lived in all of us for years. We had it in us way before we even knew each other. We could only bring it to life together. Each individual brings a certain element and strength to the song [Read More]
