Life can sometimes get in the way for a band who want to make new music, but Little Image are using this time to hone their craft. When they released their most recent track “WORTH IT” in January, the group came out running with a fresh take on their sound. The trio are now teaming […]

Acclaimed producer Sean Beavan (Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson) and artist Brandon Zano were feeling the pandemic depression hard. So they wrote “It’s Gonna Be OK,” a melodic mantra that aims to calm people coping with what may be the world’s “new normal.” The duo invited members of the Ataris, Kill Hannah and Filter among […]

Bands have covered each other’s songs since most of us can remember.

For those of you who like your guitar rock melodic and spiky, you’ve come to the right place. Fat Trout Trailer Park is the chosen moniker of Sean Raab, expatriate Belgian and twisted pop savant. As FTTP, Raab is creating music that equally draws from decidedly unlikely sources such as modern psychedelia and crushing hip-hop. […]

If there’s an award for most topical music video of the year, we should probably close the voting now. “Opaque,” by Seattle’s King Youngblood, folds today’s two major storylines—the pandemic and protests—into one striking five-minute clip. The video conflates the isolation of the pandemic and the marginalization that’s spurred protests for racial equality. But the […]

Ottawa, Canada’s We Were Sharks have a special gift for supporters—and anybody who appreciates a great song.

The original […]

Over the decades, industrial rock has frequently decried mankind’s greed and ecological destruction. In 2020, as we’re facing corporate interference and coronavirus, the Los Angeles duo DK Zero are keeping the fury alive with “Switch Me On,” which Altpress is premiering today.  Five years ago, frontwoman Kato and multi-instrumentalist D-Punk met each other while active […]

From the stages at Warped Tour to a small club in a shady part of town, Bad Cop/Bad Cop have never had a problem tearing things up. Their melodic, full-throttled punk is as scorching as a stolen, hot-wired car. Their new Fat Wreck album, The Ride, finds them even more spirited and spectacular. You can […]

Aesthetic Perfection leader Daniel Graves is on the pulse. He certainly knows what’s happening in various subgenres of electronic music. But equally important is his ability to put his heart into his work without hesitation. That’s why we’re premiering the video for “Supernatural” today on AltPress. Taken from Aesthetic Perfection’s latest album, Into The Black, […]

During the pandemic, Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Tessa Violet got a new job. Don’t worry: It’s nothing that’s going to keep her from bringing her patented good vibes to her fans. Violet became an A&R consultant for TAG, the indie label created by Gabe Saporta. Her first signing to the label is Vernon, British Columbia-based pop-rockers […]

Charming Liars originally wanted to create intricate imagery to accompany their recent releases, but due to the coronavirus pandemic, those plans changed.

Pop singer-songwriter Eric Hutchinson seems to have a love-hate relationship with high school. We think it’s more on the former side, though. His impending album, Class Of 98, is a valentine that would’ve looked good on your CD rack between Weezer and Green Day. Today, we’re premiering the video for “Good Things Come,” a song […]
