Ways Away - Torch Songs

Los Angeles-based band Ways Away have announced their sophomore album, Torch Songs, set for release October 14th on Other People Records. Produced and mixed by Beau Burchell (Saosin) and mastered by Mike Kalajian at Rogue Planet, the eleven tracks on the record pack a punch, from fast, gritty punk tracks to more melodic numbers. The band gave fans an early taste with the standalone single “Never Mind The Dog” and today they share the guitar-driven song “(I’m Not) Laughing With You”.

Upchuck - Sense Yourself

Atlanta's Upchuck have announced debut album 'Sense Yourself'. The first cut off the record “Boss Up” is an uncompromising bruiser, and also foreshadows some of the major themes that define the group’s sound and vision: “Calls for social change, a call for introspection and to heal one another, calls for awareness, and a call for action,” vocalist KT says. “Know what needs to be done and act on it, all the while managing to take time to have a good fucking time and release.”

More Kicks - Animal

London three-piece More Kicks return to the fray with a brand new 7” single ‘Animal’, co-released on Dirtnap Records (USA) and Stardumb Records (EU)! Slinky, beefy and interminably catchy, ‘Animal’ is the first single from the band’s second record ‘Punch Drunk’, also out on Dirtnap and Stardumb in September 2022. The video for "Animal" was shot by Luke Baker and edited by James Sullivan.

Martha - Please Don't Take Me Back

Durham indiepop-punks Martha have announced their return, with their fourth album ‘Please Don’t Take Me Back’ out October 28th on Dirtnap Records. Following on from the standalone single of the same name shared in May this year, today they release a brand new single and video featuring Ross Millard of the Futureheads – ‘Baby, Does Your Heart Sink’. The video sees the band auditioning to finally try and make some headway in the music industry. Unfortunately, they find the judges aren't as interested as they might have hoped.
