Grace Bowers Turns the Guild into a High-Energy Celebration of Music

May 15, 2026

The first time we saw Grace Bowers was back in 2024/25 at BottleRock Napa Valley, and she completely captured our attention and impressed us with her incredible guitar skills. Ever since then, we had been waiting for the chance to see her again, making last night at The Guild Theatre feel like a full-circle moment. The evening kicked off with Mint Green delivering a fantastic set that had the crowd singing along and fully engaged from the start, their cover of Creep was killer. Recently relocated to California, Mint Green brought an infectious energy to the stage, and we’re already looking forward to catching more of their upcoming shows. As the venue continued to fill, Grace hit the stage and completely owned it from start to finish. Not only was her guitar playing absolutely jaw-dropping, but her vocals carried such a charismatic energy that you couldn’t help but get swept up in the emotion, passion, and intensity she poured into every song. Whether she was diving into a bluesy groove, channeling an angsty punk-rock vibe, or delivering a [Read More]

East Ov Eden Push Boundaries With Crushing Debut Album BOUNDLESS

May 13, 2026

Memphis heavy hitters East Ov Eden just dropped their debut full-length album BOUNDLESS, and it’s an absolute monster of a release. The band pulls from deathcore, technical death metal, orchestral elements, and even atmospheric melodies without ever sounding forced. One minute the album is crushing and chaotic, the next it shifts into cinematic layers and massive choruses. It honestly feels like they refused to put any limits on what this record could be. If you’re into bands like All Shall Perish, Signs of the Swarm, or Cattle Decapitation, there’s definitely something here for you, but East Ov Eden still manages to carve out their own identity with the cinematic atmosphere and technical twists throughout the album. Tracks like “…TO A MOONLIT GARDEN” and “PERPETUAL HORROR” show off how dynamic the band can get, while songs like “SOULWEAVER” and “IT ENDS IN FEAR” lean harder into the deathcore side with punishing breakdowns and nonstop aggression. What makes this release stand out is how ambitious it feels for a debut. Instead of playing it safe, the band [Read More]

The halls are you, the entity is only known to you.” Stream “MOON LIGHT HYSTERIA” HERE and HERE, and preorder THESE GRAVEN HALLS through DAZE. Along with the [Read More]

The Last Dinner Party release new single “Big Dog”

May 8, 2026

Today, The Last Dinner Party released their new single “Big Dog,” a track that’s already become a standout favorite during their live shows. The song was co-produced by the ban, marking their first production credit alongside Animesh Raval. “Big Dog” leans into a darker, more intense art-pop sound with shades reminiscent of PJ Harvey. Alongside the single, the band also shared “Come All You Beasts,” a spoken word piece they often perform before the song during concerts. Band member Georgia Davies explained that “Come All You Beasts” was created to introduce the mythic and storytelling themes that connect From the Pyre and “Big Dog.” She said the piece blends themes from the song with Bible passages, twisting traditional ideas about women’s safety. Drawing inspiration from poetry and performance art, the band felt spoken word and improvised music naturally fit their creative style. Fans can stream “Big Dog” and watch the accompanying music video now: The band has also added more dates supporting Olivia Rodrigo after strong demand. Their residency now includes ten shows at [Read More]
