Pop-Punk Rockers Greyed Out Release “Broken Like An Arrow”

Photo: Noelle Burton San Francisco-based band Greyed Out has released a new single and B-side. "Broken Like An Arrow" and "No Dice" are available now via Negative Progression Records. Greyed Out is a melodic pop punk band comprised of former members of This Time Next Year and Pale Chalice. They self-released an EP in December 2021 and their growth as songwriters and performers is on display with the new material.

Jimmy Eat World Gets Creative For “Place Your Debts” Music Video

Photo Credit: Jimi Giannatti The Jimmy Eat World resurgence continues with a new song and unique music video release. Frontman Jim Adkins, himself, directed the footage used for "Place Your Debts". The new release follows the successful DIY launch of "Something Loud" this past summer and the acoustic version of the song a few months later. This is the second music video in a row in that Adkins had a large role in video production. With the stripped-down version of "Something Loud" he spent about a week editing the finished product after recording the audio in a single day. The music video for "Place Your Debt"s was a far more complicated project. The footage was shot while on tour throughout the U.S., U.K., and Europe this past summer. Each segment has a different background wh...
