Jonah Matranga is no stranger to the scene. He has been making music for over 30 years and has become somewhat of an institution. A prolific artist who is full of ideas and he straddles the line between the underground and the mainstream cusp, Matranga has fronted the bands FAR, NEW END ORIGINAL, and GRATITUDE, and has worked with indie labels like Jade Tree to majors such as Atlantic. His music has been noted as influencing many notable bands ranging from Deftones to Blink-182.

Simply put, there is no one quite like Jonah Matranga.

Punk-rockers Red City Radio have announced their new live album 'Live At Gothic Theatre' out on the 6th May via Pure Noise Records. The band have also released two singles 'In The Shadows' and 'Love A Liar' as well as accompanying live videos.

Pass the aux cord and grab a cold one––Pkew Pkew Pkew is back with Open Bar, their new album out May 13 from Dine Alone Records. Produced by Jon Drew (Tokyo Police Club, Fucked Up) and with songwriting guidance-and-support from Craig Finn (The Hold Steady), Open Bar is full of tight, rowdy modern punk songs with the heart and soul of classic rock.

The rock ‘n rollers from the Pacific Northwest THE DROWNS have announced their new EP “Lunatics” and released a video for the first single “Live Like Yer Dyin.” “Lunatics” is the follow-up to the band’s recently released 7” “Know Who You Are” and their previous full-length “Under Tension.” For “Lunatics,” The Drowns once again got back into the studio with producer Ted Hutt (The Gaslight Anthem, Dropkick Murphys, The Bouncing Souls) to re-capture the magic they created for “Under Tension.”

    

The legendary CAVE IN makes a highly anticipated return with their Relapse Records debut, Heavy Pendulum, their first full studio record in over a decade. CAVE IN (Stephen Brodsky - Guitar/Vocals, Adam McGrath - Guitar/Vocals, John-Robert Conners - Drums) sees a revival following the addition of Nate Newton (Converge, Doomriders, Old Man Gloom) on bass and vocals.

Guitarist/Vocalist Stephen Brodsky comments:

Having signed with legendary hardcore label Revelation Records, Be Well are excited to announce their upcoming EP, Hello Sun, set for release on May 20th (pre-order). Serving as a followup to the band’s critically acclaimed The Weight And The Cost (2020), the record is full of high-energy, melodic hardcore infused with emotion and lyrical depth.

Vancouver, BC pop-punks Chief State are back with a new single titled "Team Wiped" off their just-announced upcoming debut full-length 'Waiting For Your Colours,' which will be released via Mutant League Records on July 1. The follow-up to the band's 2021 stand-alone single "Metaphors" and 2020 breakthrough EP 'Tough Love,' 'Waiting For Your Colours' is the culmination of 5 years of relentless hustle (not to mention a ton of blood, sweat, and tears).
