“The PØRTERS are putting the fun in dysfunction with their latest track, ‘The Thrill.’ This hard edged song tips its hat to classic rock but feels fresha nd new while doing so. Crazy can be thrilling for a time and knowing you are in a relationship doomed to explode comes with its own brand of adrenaline that this song taps into for a fast paced thrill ride.”
“Sorry, PEach gives us a tranquil Indie track with tender vulnerable vocals early on to truly hook the listener emotionally. ‘Of course the question ‘why are you so scared?’ ... to love me, is one only asked when you find yourself in a vulnerable position so the feel is perfectly matched with the early lyrical build.
Sorry, Peach elevates the track and lets the music do more of the heavy lifting as the frustration takes over for the back half of the track. A masterfully crafted song.”

“The Riverines take us for an Alt Rock romp through a narrow hallway we’ve all traversed on ‘Get Out.’

“Carousel Blonde is a throwback in some ways as they have tapped intot he nostalgic style of 90s Alternative Rock, but they’ve managed to do so without sacrificing a contemporary edge. “Walls’ is a track that will turn your thoughts inwards as you think and process the lyrical power. This is a good thing because the song sticks to you long after its end.”

“Let me introduce this track with a quite from the artist ... ‘When I was 14 I was an emo kid, Now I’m an emotional man.’
This emotions have manifested into an Alternative Rock sound that is undeniably inviting. YEah maybe it is in that misery loves company vein though there is nothing miserable about this song or the talent behind it. I;m simply talking about the shared human experience and how we all face and feel the same things.
’Wound’ showcases that and the band’s ability to deliver what we are feeling. ”

“Electronica nad Alternative Rock collide on Deep Thrills latest release, ‘She’s On.’ The fast-paced tempo and spitfire lyrics takes listeners on an exploration of sex, identity, and obsession.
”The song really flowed out of me, most of the lyrics are stream-of-consciousness. Looking back, I was dealing with something like an identity shift. I was sick of a shallow lifestyle and shallow relationships. Looking for something more but not knowing where to find it.” - Deep Thrills
This is the kind of song that hits you with its unique edge and then keeps you coming back to explore the lyrical depth time and time again.”
“Love is meant to be a two way streetm though sadly not every relationship finds such balance. JESSIA unleashes an emotional Pop track about carrying the burden of a relationship by giving far more of yourself than the other person is willing. ‘Moved Around You’ has a haunting vulnerability that keeps the listener tethered to the emotions and perhaps reflecting on their own situation.”
“PEPTALK teams up with Chloe Parché to get ‘Good With Goodbye.’ The Indie Pop track is about saying see you later to that toxic relationship and that person who treats you like garbage.
From the outside such situation are usually clear but when mired in the history and emotions of such a relationship it takes a moment of strength and clarity and this track artfully highlights such an awakening. ”
“Dripping with nostalgia, this track tells an emotional story of thinking you have more time. Emily James sets the stage of ‘Suburbia’ with young love and the false notion created by naivety that said love will be eternal with nothing but good times ahead.
Reality hits us all at some point but this song also offers hope of redemption and frankly could be taken a number of ways depending on your own experiences and mindset. Which is always the case for truly great art. This is an artfully delivered story song and video that will have relevance for anytne with a beating heart.”

The two sides are at odds inthe same way we all tend to smile and say everything is fine even as our world is shattering.”
“The need to fix someone is often disguised by obsession of the dark and mysterious. Tessa Dalton’s track ‘Dark & Pretty’ is about that obsession and all that can come with it if you dive in without considering all that could be lurking there in the shadows. This Alt Pop sing/songwriter vibe is alive with emotion and turmoil. ”
“An alternative Pop track that leans intot he Pop Punk vibe, ‘Girl who HATES me,’ is MIA CEFALO’s latest single. The track comes with an energetic build and tone and at times the added harder edge of the melody adds tot he intensity. A fun lyrical ride that will pump you up. ”
“An Alternative Rock ode to bad timing and missed opportunities, ‘A Day Late,’ is about that friend zone crush you can’t quite stop thinking about the what-ifs.
Anberlin delivers a sound that would have been right at home in the 90s, but still feels relevant and Contemporary today because that is what timeless talent will do for a band. ”
