Mothica’s New Album Nocturnal Due July 1st

Alt-pop artist Mothica's highly anticipated sophomore album is set for release. Nocturnal will be available worldwide on July 1st. Along with the announcement she's dropped two new singles simultaneously. She'll be heading out on tour with Coheed & Cambria this summer but more on that in a moment. Mothica released her debut album Blue Hour in 2020. The project was inspired by the sky's final moments before darkness. She followed that up with an EP in 2021 called forever fifteen. According to a recent press release, on Nocturnal she focuses on nighttime and her strange relationship with sleep. A lot of the songs touch on darkness and being self-destructive.

Breaking Waves: Fyoomz & “Invisible Touch”

"Wave exists in the collective subconscious of every avid electronic music fan. People who take an active interest in Wave are among those same fans, except they’re awake." — Donald // Fyoomz 🌊🌊🌊 (@fyoomz) April 12, 2022 Twitter It was my lucky day on Tuesday. When I woke up, I felt well enough to write, AND I found a new Fyoomz drop--all at once!! Let me tell you—“Invisible Touch” is a whole vibe. It kept me going literally all day. You should check it out, especially if you need an intense pick-me-up.

Sub Urban Releases Provocative New Video For “Bandit”

Sub Urban has released a new video for "Bandit". The standout track is featured on his new album Hive. Anticipation for the album drop had been building and Sub Urban didn't disappoint. After all, he's earned over a billion streams and YouTube views on his songs and videos, all without ever having released a full-length album. Hivehttps://suburban.lnk.to/hive Sure, music gets released a little differently these days with many artists focusing on single releases and EPs. However, in this writer's opinion, a full-length album gives a musician a full canvas to paint on. And that's exactly what Sub Urban has done with Hive. An 'intricately arranged vaudevillian thriller' is the best way to describe it. In other words, if you're looking for a collection of light-hearted pop songs, yo...

Punk Rockers Handheld Pay Tribute To John Candy In New Music Video

Canadian punk rockers Handheld have delivered the John Candy tribute you might not have realized you needed. "Leaving Candyland" is a fun up-tempo homage to one of comedy's true legends. The music video features band members dressed up as a number of Candy's classic movie and television characters. How many can you spot? A Canadian Tragedy is the first new album in 14 years from Handheld. They formed in 1998 out of Ontario and are known for their loud, fast, and melodic punk rock jams. Fans of bands like Bad Religion, NOFX and Rise Against will feel right at home. We're hearing a hint of Blink 182 on "Leaving Candyland" too. And it's not just what appears to be a similar sense of humor. Handheld released six albums/EPs over a 10-year period from 1998 to 2008. From there they wen...

Kate Bush’s “Running Up That Hill” vs. Meg Myers’ Cover

The 1985 Kate Bush classic "Running Up That Hill" recently hit #1 on the iTunes chart. An impressive feat considering the song was released 37 years ago.
