Lincolnshire, UK based The Ultraviolet have landed with their all new EP "The Tales of Our Youth". The 5 song effort chronicles the band's stylish alt rock mixed in with a dash of pop-punk that represents the band's musical influences, and is representative of their upbringing in the United Kingdom where the music scene there is really flourishing thanks to the creative wisdom and talents of everyone residing there who are equally contributing to a naturally vibrant music sce

Portland, ME's Weakened Friends are back with their brand new EP titled "Crushed". The 6 song collection is a rock solid collection of tunes constructed with an indie minded aesthetic that brings to mind a young version of The Pixies with their own unique sensibilities to add to the fray that really blasts through in living color.

The Sounds That Prawns Make is a 5-song EP by London-based Dah Rhyl Gah Moor. The album made me tap my feet, nod my head, and yearn for whenever I’m going to be able to see this band live. Whoever produced, mixed, and mastered this album need desperately to be complimented. I tried listening from my phone, my laptop, from good speakers and bad ones, and never found a deviation from the stellar sound quality. I would not listen to any of these songs for their lyrics. “Blow” is

Boston based indie rockers Bay Faction have just released their brand new, self titled album. The colleciton is a mellow, inviting affair with top notch guitar rhythms and well executed songwriting that makes this album a definite keeper, and one you'll definitely want to have on repeat all the way throughout. We start things off with "Bloody Nose" a terrific, straightforward rocker with deep, punctuating guitar licks and frontman James McDermott's strong and rhythmic vocal p
