Shades Apart are back with their first album in almost twenty years! The band released their previous two albums, Eyewitness (1999) and Sonic Boom (2001), with Universal Records and have been rather quiet since. The New Jersey power-rock trio have found a new home, in their own backyard, with NJ indie label Hellminded Records and are ready to release Eternal Echo later this summer. Eternal Echo is a return to form consisting of ten supercharged power-pop and rock songs that meet somewhere between their earlier work on Seeing Things and Eyewitness.

Time Spent Driving will be releasing their new EP, 'Estrangers Vol. 1'. You can check out first single, "Wake Up and Smell the Daisies", below.

Here is what Jon Cattivera of Time Spent Driving had to say about the track.

Pop punks Slick Shoes have announced their new album, 'Rotation & Frequency,' their first full length album in 17 years. The band also return to Tooth & Nail Records, who will put out the new album, and were the band's label home for their four of their five studio albums.
 

At the start of 2017, Evan Thomas Weiss wasn’t sure that he would make Figure, his long-awaited fourth full-length record under namesake Into It. Over It. But built slowly and kindly with the help of his friends, Figure became his commitment to do better and to be better.

“It’s about trying to make peace with poor decisions that I’ve made,” Weiss says, “and how I can try to reconcile as much as I can, and what I can’t reconcile, how I’m going to cope with that moving forward, and what I can do to be better to the people around me.”

UK punk quartet Swan Prince have announced a new LP to come out on Aug 7. Titled 'Hell on Earth,' the album will be distributed via Brassneck Records in the UK, as well as Waterslide Records (JP) and Swamp Cabbage Records (USA).

Singing Lungs is back with a new E.P. recorded from their homes using 4 iPhones during quarantine. In the vein of 90’s punk and indie rock with similarities to early Goo Goo Dolls, Lemonheads, and Smoking Popes, the band continues to push forward with a sense of urgency, melody, and introspection. With content ranging from navigating the ups and downs of life, the urgent need for creative expression in less than ideal circumstances, questioning overconfidence, and paying attention to yourself, “Phone From Car” attempts to sort out moments in time in order to continue moving forward.
