We’re back with another round-up of new tracks by previously featured GigRadar artists in our On The Radar feature. This round-up brings you a wide variety of new music, from blues rock, hard rock and metal to a taste of 90s rock and some thrashing metalcore.
Ohio’s Faith In Failure aren’t afraid to mix things up, to the extent that they’re as likely to drop a hard-hitting metalcore banger as they are a punky ballad
Indianapolis hard-hitters Church Tongue conjure up a vicious concoction of complex, breakneck, uncompromising and utterly brilliant metalcore that they describe as “dark, melodic, and fast.”
Denver band A Shadow Within seek to meet, investigate and embrace the “collective shadow sides” that they’ve been told to repress and ignore. The result sees the band take full control of their darker selves in a diverse metalcore sound they describe as “cathartic, energetic and powerful.”
Utah band New Habits formed with a purpose to inspire listeners to develop new habits and better their lives and relationships.
Wearing the t-shirt of your favourite band doesn’t only make you look super cool, it can also lead to exciting opportunities by meeting fellow metal lovers.
Rogue offer up a progressive metalcore sound that fuses pummelling guitars, a mix of clean and screamed vocals and immersive soundscapes, which they describe as “energetic, atmospheric and thought-provoking.”
Washington band Darkenside joke that they sound like “a stadium rock band that plays breakdowns.” But it’s an apt description of a riff-heavy yet melodic modern metalcore approach that they describe as “powerful, energetic, and emotional.”
Minnesota metalcore meets hardcore band Common Choir have honed an intense sound that offers something for all listeners to connect with and they describe as “honest, aggressive and energetic.”
Ohio synth-infused metalcore band Starless will certainly keep you on your toes with a heavy sound that’s approachable and relatable, fusing vicious vocals with catchy choruses and melodies.
