Kings County’s Single “Holding On” Packs A Powerful Punch

Florida rockers Kings County have been hard at work over the last year writing and recording new music. We're seeing the fruits of that labor with the release of the new single and video, "Holding On." This intense track features powerful vocals, memorable guitar riffs, and melodic hooks to tie it all together. Kings County is Rob Dexter (Vocals, Bass), Steve Bell (Guitars, Vocals), Joe Lopez (Drums), and Bill Kania (Guitars, Vocals).Dexter says, “Holding On" was the song we needed to write. After our last release in 2022, we were constantly performing live for months and knew we had to get back to writing or we would become complacent. You are as good as your last song and it was a pivotal moment for us. We needed to raise the bar and that's exactly what we did". Meaning Behind "H...

All Hail The Queen: Scene Queen Refuses to be Silenced with “18+”

"Fuck the Scene, I'm The Queen!" Last Friday, "bimbocore" artist Scene Queen dropped a new single that I haven't been able to stop thinking about: "18+". The song addresses the state of the alt rock/emo scene in the most poignant-yet-accessible way. If you're a fan of this type of music--or grew up in "the scene"--don't skip this one. It's fun to listen to... and it's going to give you plenty to think about. If anyone deserves the title "Scene Queen", it is most definitely this 25-year-old artist, as proven by this witty new bop. Check out "18+" by Scene Queen on Spotify, below: https://open.spotify.com/album/6oveIE1VtjcawBs2UlM3Mn?si=MUdiUjBiQcCiVy3Bj2p-tw "18+" is a fast favorite.

The track is a part of the band's upcoming album Rhyme & Reason. The new album is set to be released later this year via [PIAS] Recordings.
