PVRIS return with the new single “GODDESS,” following 2022’s “ANIMAL / ANYWHERE BUT HERE.” Listen to the cathartic, dance-inspired song from Lynn Gunn’s pop-rock project.

A year after stepping out as PVRIS’ main creative force for the release of their third album, Use Me, Lynn Gunn is showing no signs of slowing down. To tide fans over until the next era of PVRIS properly begins, the band released two new singles, “Monster” and “My Way.” Leaning further into the electropop […]

As we come to the end of 2021, we’re also concluding Alternative Press’ end-of-the-year celebration. We asked each artist we interviewed for our December 2021 issue to answer two specific questions: What was the best thing you heard in 2021, and who should we look out for in 2022?

Alternative Press is back again with our end-of-the-year celebration. Hopefully you know the drill already, but if you haven’t heard, we asked each artist we interviewed for our December 2021 issue to answer two specific questions: what was the best thing you heard in 2021, and who should we look out for in 2022? This […]

Hello and welcome to Alternative Press’ end-of-the-year celebration! We know that for a lot of people, 2021 has been less than ideal, to say the least. That’s why we wanted to bring you a little holiday cheer  — with the help of some of our favorite artists.  We asked each artist we interviewed for our […]

PVRIS are showcasing their growth on their latest track, “My Way,” via Warner Records/Reprise Records. The synth-driven song begins with the question “Do you want me to do that?” before immediately diving into an energetic beat. Lynn Gunn’s layered vocals create a gritty and unique sound, while the chorus is instantly recognizable as something a […]

PVRIS’ fearless leader Lynn Gunn ponders genres, the best-ever fan-dad interaction and comes clean about what she really wants a do-over on.

As members of the LGBTQIA+ community, the CLOUDY double A-side release aligns perfectly in celebration of Pride Month. Anderson began promoting the release of […]

We already established that not all women sound like Hayley Williams with our look into unique-sounding frontwomen within 2000s alternative music. So, given the generalized diversification of the genre throughout the 2010s, we shouldn’t need to drive that point home again, right? That said, last time the dynamic range present in women’s vocal styles proved to […]

It’s well known that, historically, pop punk has been a bit of a boys’ club. But that just makes the continued influences of prominent women all the more impressive. From setting genre foundations (Gwen Stefani) to pushing sonic boundaries (Lynn Gunn), women have catalyzed the growth of the scene for decades. Of course, we’re not going to let […]

Alt-pop singer and actor Kat Cunning released “Confident” as their first song of 2021 along with a new video for the track. “Confident” is the first music from Cunning since the acoustic version of “King Of Shadow” in December. The new dark and moody video sees them dancing in a smoky room with an entourage. […]

We know how to exhaust the discographies of our favorite bands, going back to their early foundations. But how often do we follow their journeys back to where they really started? Prior to achieving career success, many now-iconic artists started somewhere else entirely. Often, we’re so removed from these preceding outfits that we don’t even […]

After teasing their highly-anticipated collab earlier this week, PVRIS and DJ/producer REZZ have officially unleashed their haunting new EDM track “Sacrificial.” “Sacrificial” is the latest collaboration to arrive from PVRIS’ Lynn Gunn over the past few months. Read more: Jon Schaffer is reportedly still in an Indiana jail three weeks after arrest Back in October, […]

All hail the genre-benders! Seriously, it’s one thing to be successful in a single genre, but to change things up and continue to excel? That’s the mark of a legend. Admittedly, most artists go through some form of sonic progression over the course of their careers. But how many can you name that distinctly embody […]

Ever heard a new pop-punk song on Spotify and thought, “Wow, this is great. How could it get any better?” Only to have your mind blown by the addition of familiar guest vocals 10 seconds later? Yeah, that’s happened to us about a thousand times over the course of the last decade. If there’s anything […]

The start of the Rawring ’20s—a decade that we anticipated would be a glittering revival of the golden age of emo, complete with painfully skinny jeans and hanging out at the mall as part of a cultural tradition—hasn’t gone completely to plan. It’s hard to believe we had high hopes for this year back when […]

As we enter the 2020 holiday season, we’re all eagerly searching for that perfect gift for the music lover in our lives. Concert tickets are obviously out of the question unless you want to plan far in advance. And merch can be hit or miss, especially if you aren’t too sure of your loved one’s […]

If we could identify one incandescent moment to come out of the coronavirus pandemic, it would have to be having large stretches of time to listen to albums. Yes, in 2020, most of us binged on Netflix and chilled the best we could. But streaming services made access to music downright infinite. We could finally […]
