Elon (Take Me Home)

by Rawls Royce

Our music is political but doesn’t shy away from reminding listeners how close they are to dying in a beer covered sweater.

Perennials

by Wild Once

Wild Once is a new four-piece indie-emo-dad-rock act out of Buffalo, NY. On our brooding title-track from our 2019 debut EP 'Perennials', big drums back an atmospheric guitar-driven sound, while not straying too far from emo/punk rock roots.

For fans of

Lionizer

Lionizer are an indie-punk tour de force of blood, sweat and body parts. Their songs deal with insecurity, promiscuity, suicidal ideation... but with a focus on the hope that things can be better and that you don't have to buy into soul-grinding social expectations.

For fans of

Crushed Veneer

We're a punk rock band from London. We just released our first single last month and this will be our second. We have an EP coming out in May. Musically we're pretty energetic with elements of pop-punk, rock, and indie. Lyrically we're more along the lines of 'orgcore' bands with hints of emo.
