Fast Car

by The Getarounds

The Get Arounds have just released their new full-length album, I Wanna Live. Melodic choruses call to mind classics like Nikki and the Corvettes or The Dead Boys. Their female-fronted, angst fills the songs with 90’s style punk-grit that are reminiscent of L7, Bikini Kill or Babes in Toyland.

Red Hands

by Run with Hounds

The music video for our new single 'Red Hands' was released Tuesday on Cleopatra Records, and we'd would love if you would consider the video for review. Thank you in advance. The lyrics tell a pulp magazine style drama of betrayal that is all at once painfully sincere yet tongue in cheek.
