Hardcore upstarts One Step Closer have announced their debut full-length, This Place You Know, due out September 24th from Run For Cover Records. Since their start only a few years ago the young Wilkes Barre, PA-based band have been steadily gaining momentum with a passionate and anthemic style of hardcore that's made them stand out from the pack. On This Place You Know the band fulfills that promise and builds on it with their most urgent and compelling set of songs to date.  

Scottish rock band We Were Promised Jetpacks have announced their new album 'Enjoy the View,' which will be released on September 10th via Big Scary Monsters. The band is also sharing a new single "Fat Chance," which follows up "If It Happens," released as a 7” earlier this month. The new single signifies a change in musical direction for the band, with "Fat Chance" an ode to overcoming, and even thriving, despite the odds. 

New York City post-hardcore band Quicksand have announced their fourth studio album Distant Populations out digitally on August 13 and on vinyl September 24 via Epitaph Records.
