Slothrust's new LP entitled The Pact will be out 9/14 via Dangerbird Records.
 
Slothrust is principal songwriter, guitar player and unrepentant aesthete Leah Wellbaum, with drummer Will Gorin and bassist Kyle Bann. On their fourth full-length album The Pact, Slothrust constructs a luscious, ethereal cosmos perforated with wormy portals and magic wardrobes, demonstrating more clearly than ever the band’s deft shaping of contrasting sonic elements to forge a muscular sound that’s uniquely their own.

ALICE IN CHAINS have announced an August 24th release for the long-awaited RAINIER FOG (BMG), their first album in five years.  

Hailing from South Jersey, Only On Weekends takes the best parts of the late 90's and early aught's pop-punk and makes it feel fresh. Their upcoming full length, Another Wasted Night, is the perfect summer soundtrack.  Recorded by Jesse Cannon (Saves the Day, The Menzingers, Misfits), at Cannon Found Soundation, Another Wasted Night is a wonderfully produced album that trims all of the fat and sticks to the basics.

In a scene where abstruse lyrics and ironic detachment are all the rage, Alien Boy’s high-stakes, loud pop is as refreshing as it is surprising. In the grand tradition of emo and pop-punk—and perhaps rock ’n roll in general—lead singer and songwriter Sonia Weber uses her songs to communicate subdued desires and secret grievances. Alien Boy’s debut LP Sleeping Lessons is a collection of lullabies for the pop masochist; like all good, emotional music, Weber’s songs are resonant because they’re unmistakably human.
