LOUS AND THE YAKUZA RELEASES TRACK TOUT EST GORE

Says Lous, “‘Tout est gore’ is a trap song. “Tout est gore” is when it is so bloody that it becomes funny. “Tout est gore” is about living in the fast lane. Being extra in everything you do. Like life has been an extra bitch to you so many times. Laugh at it and live faster. Twerk stronger. Because this has been your sole way to exorcize your pain since forever.”

JOE BUCHANAN’S NEW ALBUM LIFTS THE TORAH THROUGH COUNTRY MUSIC

Country artist and native Texan Joe Buchanan just released his second album, BACK FROM BABYLON. This is country like you remember it. Southern roots forward, stories that dig deep, and a little bit of honky-tonk. With inspiration from the Torah and his South Texas upbringing, Buchanan’s lyrics speak straight and true.

Sarah Mary Chadwick shares new single ‘When Will Death Come’, new LP out 1/24/20 on Sinderlyn

Multi-instrumentalist and visual artist Sarah Mary Chadwick is not a new face to Melbourne’s music community. After moving to Australia from her native New Zealand to pursue a career in music, Sarah spent a decade fronting the grunge band Batrider. Eventually becoming tired of the collaborative requirements intrinsic to band life, Sarah shifted her focus to songwriting independently, drawing inspiration from “weird old New Zealand musicians” like Peter Jefferies, Chris Knox, and Australia’s Pip Proud and the way they tinker away and work for decades for “little to no commercial success.” This inspiration is obvious in Sarah’s performance as she simultaneously savors and mocks the pedestal that her creativity affords her, acknowledging that “it’s a position of power being on a microphone” and how “it’s a desperate demand to be seen. It’s funny and really sad.”

Yoshi Flower Releases New Mixtape “I Will Not Let My Love Go To Waste” Today

Of the making of the mixtape, Yoshi recalls “Half way through making this project I woke up in the hospital. I’ll spare the details, I’m not here to glorify self-destruction. I had made some stupid decisions that led me to rethink my second chance at life. I didn’t want to let my love go to waste. These songs are a collection of confrontation; how we change as people and how we deal with love, heartbreak, depression, addiction, and the extreme gamut of existence.”
