San Francisco 4-piece Pardoner released their 3rd single, "Rosemary's Gone" ahead of new album "Peace Loving People" out June 23rd via Bar None Records. Channeling 90's indie sludgy-esque rambunctious rock such as Dinosaur Jr; Lead vocalist Max Freeland calls it a “melancholy love song with a little paranoia thrown in.” Featuring very danceable riffing singles, it's safe to say we are looking forward to their upcoming album. Pardoner will be on a US tour this July, dates below!

Paper Lady is a dream-pop and shoegaze band based in Boston, MA who have just released their highly anticipated independently released EP, "Traveling Exploding Star." The project is made up of Alli Raina, Rowan Martin, Will Davila, Kenzo Divic, and Alex Castile. Creating a base in the Boston area and Allston DIY scene. Filled with mystifying guitar, synth-y atmosphere, soothing swarming reverb drowned vocals, and encapsulating drums - these tracks are sure to catch your attention. We are absolutely loving this release, and it may be the new soundtrack to our lives in this transitional ending of the Spring-into-Summer season.

New bedroom pop and rock Los Angeles based band, wilt has just released their 4th single "moved along" out via Echo Records. A breakup song which is resilient, truthful, dreamy, but that is also dance-y. According to the band it almost didn't make the cut, the songs demo and live version circulated amongst friends and crowds, with its demand from their following being deserved! The track is sweetly reminiscent of the local LA music scene from back in the days of feel-good Spring-Summer of 2015. Be sure to keep the upcoming band, wilt on your radar.

London duo, Charlotte Spiral releases “All This Time, Asleep,” the title track of their up and coming third EP, following last year’s New Light release. Charlotte Spiral is formed by Amy Spencer and Avi Barath. The collaborating artists name stems from it's figure-skating locomotion origin.
Speaking on the single, Amy shares: “‘All This Time, Asleep’ is based on an argument between myself and a loved one. I’m being rude and just saying whatever I like, feeling like a failure, spending so much time ‘looking for myself’ or trying to figure things out. Though while I’m doing this, I forget to think how they might be feeling, and to remember that we’re two people. Throughout the track, I wanted to describe the scene we were in: ‘trying on a new shirt’ was a metaphor used to portray that I want to try this new me out, but it might not fit. At the end of the song, I am lying in the shirt, fully ready to commit and be together. It does fit me…” "All This Time, Asleep" is available on streaming services now.

Faetooth is a four piece experimental metal outfit based in Los Angeles, California. The self coined "fairy-doom" band is made up of guitarists/vocalists Ash and Ari, bassist/vocalist Jenna Garcia, and their drummer Rah. Faetooth's members being long-time friends since their youth growing up within the Los Angeles music scene created a tight-knit bond expanding how they convey instrumentally. Basing their ever evolving sound around doom metal riffs, shoegaze-esque melodies, and perfected sludgy soundscapes.
Furthering their musical presence comes brand new single, Echolalia. The tune is held near and dear to the band, as it was the first song Faetooth composed after the release of their 2019 debut EP ... An Invocation - Echolalia displays the band’s adept ability to move from thundering to somber, a dynamic that is anchored by a simple, yet haunting riff. Choruses explode with fuzzy guitars and a hard grooving bassline, carried by the singular refrain: “On thy knees now / We fall with what we build” – a reflection on the lore of the Tower of Babylon. Concluding with a growling breakdown and eviscerating lead guitar, Faetooth officially introduces their exciting new chapter announcing their upcoming full length album Remnants of The Vessel out October 28th, 2022 (Dune Altar.) Echolalia's lyric visualizer was premiered by Metal Injection and is directed, filmed, and edited by their very own guitarist Ari (@filthywitch) - available for viewing below!
