Pulley To Release The Golden Life On SBAM Records

Longtime Southern California punk-rockers Pulley has announced plans to release a new album, The Golden Life. Along with that, they've dropped a new single which happens to be the title track. And as if that wasn't enough, they've announced a European tour supporting Bad Religion and Pennywise. Pulley formed in 1995 and signed a record deal with Epitaph shortly afterward. Over the next decade, they built a passionate fan base of punk rock fans. They released five albums and didn't let the fact their singer was a major league baseball player get in their way. Frontman Scott Radinsky spent more than a decade playing for teams like the White Sox, Dodgers and Cardinals. Coming out of the bullpen, he sported a more than respectable 3.44 ERA over more than 550 major league games. After h...

With The Punches New Album Discontent Due In May

It's been a while. But if the new single is any indication, it'll have been worth the wait. New York-based pop-punk outfit With the Punches has announced a new record deal and EP release along with a brand new single. Discontent will be the first new release from With The Punches in nearly nine years. "Stoneham Blues" is the lead single from the new EP and they've really delivered something special. The song confronts mortality in that, according to vocalist Jesse Vadala, it was loosely written about a few close friends who are no longer with us. I struggled like many do in processing death, especially those lost to addiction. We always wish for ways to protect the ones we love. When they leave abruptly, it can shatter so many lives. Some days we feel lost. Other days we shine ...

WØLFDARLING Confront Mortality On New Single “ghost empire”

Genre-bending WØLFDARLING has returned with the release of a brand new single. "ghost empire" is a strong follow up to the previously released "send the sun my way". The introspective mid-tempo alt-rock tune is sure to evoke strong emotions from the listener when considering the intense subject matter. According to frontman Sam Urich, he started writing the song as he was enduring a challenging time in his life nearly a decade ago. He tapped into the raw emotions that go along with confronting a life-threatening illness all while dealing with the end of a serious relationship. You can hear my anguish, as well as my rage and terror when realizing that I was weakening by the day and had no idea how to keep myself from dying. I was sitting across from death, looking into&n...
