In comparison to recent weeks, today is quite a subdue #NewMusicFriday.
However, there are enough releases to spark your interest. For example, Lonely The Brave’s fourth album, ‘What We Do To Feel‘, is a soul-warming return. Whereas Broadside continue to drift between their pop-punk foundations and alt-pop with their latest full-length – ‘Hotel Bleu’.
L.S. Dunes serve up a different perspective of last year’s impressive debut, ‘Past Lives’ with a collection of demos titled ‘Lost Songs: Lines and Shapes’. Guitar virtuoso Sophie Lloyd steps away from Machine Gun Kelly’s backup band to showcase her axe-shredding skills on ‘Imposter Syndrome’, with a whole host of guests lending their vocals including Lizzy Hale, Matthew K. Heafy, and Brandon Saller.
Elsewhere, there’s New Orleans mob, HourHouse, who deliver a feral mix of rap-rock. ‘GOLD TOOTH GURU’ provides its fair share of breakdowns, drill beats, and nu-metal blasts. While genre-moulding duo Holy Wars look to leave their mark with ‘Cult Classic‘, and UK up-and-comers Blue Stragglers showcase a rousing mix of fuzz-laden rock with their second EP, ‘Fool’s Errand’. From Canada, meet Locket who showcase their brand of emo rock on ‘Superluminal’.
