Vitriol Signs Worldwide Deal with Century Media Records

The band, formed back in 2011, consists of Kyle Rasmussen (vocals/guitars), Adam Roethlisberger (vocals/bass) and Scott Walker (drums). By blending jaw-dropping technicality, ferocious riffs at savage paces, a brute dual vocal attack, and a sinister vibe throughout, VITRIOL are destined to become one of death metal’s most promising newcomers and are already working hard on the forthcoming debut album.
Rachel Lynn – “Didn’t I” (New Single)
On the track, Rachel shares, “‘Didn’t I’ is my hopeless, angry, heart-wrenching anthem. I wanted to write something I could really wail on, really lose myself in on stage, and that’s how ‘Didn’t I’ came about. I without a doubt lose myself in this one.”

Following the release of his debut single “Bad Night” at the tail end of 2018, Joshua Speers is back with the poignant and subversively titled ‘Happy Birthday You’re Alone’. “I wrote this song after she dumped me on her birthday.” Explains Speers; “All my insecurities about her leaving me for someone else came rushing in and I desperately wanted to say something hurtful in parting.

Fontaines D.C. share new single ‘Roy’s Tune’
Now, following the announcement of their highly-anticipated debut album ‘Dogrel’, the band have shared a video for their new single ‘Roy’s Tune’. The single was premiered by The FADER, who say “the Dublin-based band, have established themselves as one of the most exciting new bands around via a series of scratchy and dark tunes clearly indebted to the world of post-punk. However, there is more than one string to the Irish band’s bow, as they show on the tender and contemplative new single.
Gemma (NYC) announces new album, Feeling’s Not A Tempo
“I’m all in my head,” Felicia Douglass sings over warm, warbling electronics and a head -nodding disco bass line, on the opening lyric of Gemma’s aptly titled Feeling’s Not a Tempo — a rollercoaster collection of ebullient pop that dances through the complications of connection, of mind games and miscommunication. “You blew a kiss and didn’t aim it straight… You better knock it off!” she sings, defiant, as that lead track unfurls into dizzying drums and a flanged fuzz guitar solo.
Azar Swan share new song via Adult Swim Singles
Adult Swim Singles have teamed with NYC-based electronic outfit Azar Swan to offer up the 29th installment of the current program. “Empire Grave” combines the harsh post-industrial EBM of their 2017 full length Savage Exile with the tribal pop exuberance that characterized their first two albums. With Zohra Atash and Joshua Strawn’s rage-addled synths and the addition of bassist Ed Strohsahl’s syncopated vamp, Atash’s vision grows simultaneously more focused and groove-oriented. Choosing to abandon many of the limitations of programming in favor of a live and semi-improvisational approach, “Empire Grave” is a Berghain-ready battle cry.
Pop Songwriter, Kat Holland, Unveils NEW Video via Substream Magazine Ahead of EP Out 3/22
Holland has always been a lover of all things music, recalling many fond memories of singing along and dancing to The Beatles with her father and Sarah McLachlan with her mother. “The One” is dedicated to not just her five-year relationship, but the heartache and anxiety that she experienced when they encountered a period of time when they had to live apart from each other. The EP title, Retrovision, calls to mind looking back, reminiscing about the past and longing for something in the present or future. Holland was inspired and wrote most of the EP’s songs during this period.

Versus shares first new music in 9 years
It’s been a steep slope for the Extended Play record, the wicked stepchild of music formats. Physical EPs had become anachronisms, bygone symbols of the halcyon indie years of the ’80s and ’90s, but the pendulum has begun to swing back in recent times, with fine EPs released by Belle and Sebastian, Lesser Evil, Public Practice and Protomartyr. Now 2019 delivers the superb EP Ex Nihilo by Versus, one of the downright epochal bands of the urbane grime of the ’90s indie rock scene. It’s both a return to form and format, as the band has a long history of companion pieces to their seminal albums, EPs that were full-on artistic triumphs, often becoming even more beloved by their fans.

Ireland’s Hare Squead Share the Inventive, Appealingly Lo-Fi “100 Miles” Video
Known for their effervescent and deeply musical strain of hip-hop, Hare Squead effortlessly separate themselves from the pack. Translating their desperate longing into a breezy acoustic bounce, the Irish duo recently returned from an 18-month absence with the audio single “100 Miles.” Today they bring the love song to life with some inventive cinematography and a HYPEBEAST premiere.

Filmed in lo-fi black-and-white and directed by the group’s visual collaborator Isaac Nelson, Hare Squead opens up their bag of tricks, splitting close-ups of their faces with grainy superimpositions of a full moon and winking eyes and wide shots of stark grey landscape that would fit in an Ingmar Bergman film.
