Watch new music videos from Goddamnit and Microwave, plus catch Hail The Sun and Pallbearer on tour. Check out the news you might have missed today below!

1. Microwave released a new music video for their track, “Dull.” Check it out below!

The video, which premiered over at Upset, is taken from their new album Much Love which is out now via SideOneDummy. Vocalist Nathan Hardy tells Upset that the record is about questioning things you’ve been taught your whole life about how the world is.

“I grew up really religious and at one point I found for myself that I didn’t identify with that anymore. And then I started to realize that other things, like the idea of love and monogamous relationships, were also in that same vein of stuff that I’d been taught when I was younger that were just what you’re supposed to do,” Hardy explains.

“All these things I’d been taught going to church six days a week or through watching Disney movies that reinforced the idea of finding someone and living happily ever after, I was beginning to understand weren’t universal truths after all. And that, overall, made me realize there’s not an inherent meaning to life and I more or less had to build a new foundation for my life.”
