Los Pepes - Out Of The Void

Out Of The Void is Los Pepes 6th LP and it’s 12 back-to-back classics. Super catchy tales of nihilism, love and heartache in a seemingly futureless world of political turmoil filled with conspiracy, stupidity and existential threat…that is the “void”. It’s power pop but not as you know it. Sonically it’s different… broken glass “out of this world” dreamy reverb-soaked surf guitar hooks cut across a garage punk Ozzy vocal line, which is pointedly melodic.

Catbite - Doom Garden

Philadelphia’s Catbite have released their first music in nearly three years, the infectious new single and lead track, “Die in Denver”, from their forthcoming release Doom Garden, out May 9th. To accompany the announcement, the band teamed with director Jak Kerley to make a somewhat NSFW music video, a campy homage to B-movie horror and the likes of Scooby Doo.

While playful and catchy on the surface, both the song and forthcoming release carry deeper meanings, as vocalist Brit Luna explains:

Violets - Violets

Bringing together members of Naked Raygun, The Methadones and Blood People, the new project Violets has long tentacles in Chicago's punk rock history. Just don't expect them to sound like anything familiar.

“People likely have a preconceived idea of what we’ll sound like. And they would be wrong,” says drummer Michael Soucy. “We really don't sound like any of our past bands,” adds guitarist Bill Stephens. “How about we just describe ourselves as kick ass?”

Memory Entry - Our World Is Going To Disappear

Brooklyn trio Memory Entry will drop their debut EP Our World Is Going To Disappear on March 21 via Iodine Recordings + Mind Over Matter Records.

The band formed in early 2020 when the three original members got together for an impromptu jam session. They carved out the beginning of what would become the song "Crawler" and parted ways, not realizing they wouldn't step foot into the practice space again for another 19 months due to the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic.

Cumulus - We"ve Got It All

The new LP marks the fourth album by Cumulus, the songwriting project of Alexandra Lockhart and William Cremin.
