Introducing: Plastic Rhino
Introducing: Final Affliction
Belgian duo Final Affliction take a wide-open approach to creating music that's free of genre labels and restrictions. That said, the duo aims to push the boundaries of modern metal with a sound that plays heavily on technical complexity and emotion.
New Band of the Week: Detroit Run
Liverpool band Detroit Run is on a mission to redefine modern alternative rock with an infectious sound that they describe as "anthemic, bouncy and crushing."
On The Radar: The Dislockers, The Purple Helmets & S.Y.G.M.A
Our On The Radar feature continues by introducing three new tracks from bands we previously interviewed and discovered through music discovery platform Groover. Today, we bring you two new singles from heavy French bands and a more laid-back offering from a Canadian band.
Introducing: Ghost Anthem
French band Ghost Anthem started out with an obsession with Scandinavian metal and has developed into a delicious modern metalcore meets death metal sound that they describe as "melodic, positive and honest."
Introducing: The Haptics
Vancouver quartet The Haptics aim to give their listeners the chills with a deliciously dark and engaging grungey post-punk sound that they describe as "noisy and moody."
On The Radar | Final Thirteen – Wide Eyed Lullabies
We're kicking off On The Radar with Northern Irish band Final Thirteen's fifth single, Wide Eyed Lullabies, which was released yesterday. The power trio of Ax (vocals), James-Darren (J.D., guitar and vocals) and Doobes (drums and vocals) blend elements of metal, rock and indie into an engaging sound they describe as "M’indie rock."
April New Music Round-Up: The Hi-Sides, Imperishable, Inconvenience, Jonas & The Jaguar Moon and NOAPOLOGY
Our ongoing discovery of new music through discovery platform Groover leads us to interview bands from all over the world. However, some don't respond to our requests, so we do regular round-ups of new bands that have submitted tracks to us.
Introducing: Holy Hell
With a name like Holy Hell, it's only fair for us to expect something dramatic, powerful and vicious. And the Canadian newcomers very much deliver on those expectations in an emo-meets-metalcore sound they describe as "emotional, aggressive and epic."
Introducing: Moonarch
German band Moonarch blends engaging vocals and powerful instrumentals in a catchy rock sound that they describe as "big, anthemic and ethereal."
