Transcendental and full of emotionally gripping depth, Hear You is the brand new release from toe.

In their own way, Counterparts have created an album that is almost a direct continuation of TDBHAH while providing a refreshed sound.

SPORTS have released a new single, 'Saturday' and it makes you feel the hangover of too many Saturday nights.

Indefinite is the debut LP by Brigades, a pop-punk band from South Carolina. They are a new band from Pure Noise Records, arguably the label that sports all that is pop-punk. 

Let's Move features twelve tracks never extending their stay, clocking in at an average under two minutes per song. From the very beginning listeners are bombarded with bombastic, anthemic bangers that calls for everyone to learn the lyrics and shout along. 

Passed & Presence is a record that takes repeated listens to get used too. At nine songs covering 47 minutes, the first few listens can seem to trudge along slowly. It's all delicately measured however, with Time Spent Driving caressing their melodies and letting their songs reach a tangible climax each time.

And as he emerges from the fog, one thing is especially clear: whether he’s on stage with a guitar or in the studio staring at his laptop, Kevin Parker is a goddamn rockstar.

Down tempo hardcore street metal band Yuth Forever (formerly known as Villians) takes aim with it's newest LP Freudian Slip at what it is like to live with chest crushing anxiety. It is all aptly stated by a robotic voice pleading to not be left alone backed by a terror driven whirring on opening song 'Lost In Translation.'

In just the first 10 minutes of Last Forever, Bjernelind invites listeners to “take her hand” a few separate times; although where you’ll go is unsure at that point, accept that invitation. Last Forever is a worthwhile journey.

"Ambient power chords mesh with pop-punk emotional lyrical prowess and metal as hell double bass drums." The Seaside EP is a grouping of modern rock tracks intertwined together with a thematic lyrical theme of nautical focus.

Better Days is an album that screams for hip-hop fans alike to listen to. The duo that is Sean Anonymous & Dimitri Killstorm pack a bunch of larger than life beats with compelling wordplay. For an underground release, this project has a lot of tenacity and ambition to snowball into many album of the year lists.

Despite the ever-lurking element of sadness, Mable lacks the cliché pop-punk sad boi routine of whining about women and rejection. It is about being sad, but also being self-aware. There is no glorification in the unhappiness felt.

What's Eating Gilbert's debut album expands on the work Chad Gilbert has been showcasing in the past releases of this project. His various musical styles show his natural songwriting talent. That New Sound You're Looking For is a lively rock album depicting a singer madly in love with a woman. ^^Hayley^^^Williams^^^shoutout.

Closer to Dog – and Cousin Brian, for that matter – is much more than an indie rock worship project. It’s a concentrated, inventive LP with an energy all its own. 

United By Birdcalls is a record laced with vivacious melodies amidst a singer's longing to expel his emotions. Hodera's debut album is nothing short of a solid release.
