MorMor has shared 2 new singles, “Dawn2” and “Hurt You”, off his upcoming album “No One Alive Will Listen” out October 30th via Promised Land Records.
MorMor shared this about the song: “I wrote ‘Dawn 2’ while being out in LA. I had been hanging out with Caleb Laven and we started this one at his studio. I was still with my girlfriend at the time but things were beginning to feel as if they were fraying at the seams. I must have been avoiding some of these feelings but that’s the magic in music; It often pulls things to the forefront. Your subconscious collects everything and it sort of all comes out.”
MorMor shared this about the other song: “”Hurt You” came out of a session in London with Jonathan Quarmby. He’s one of the most generous, kind-hearted people I’ve ever met. Inspired by listening to Daft Punk’s ‘Veridis Quo’ while on the way to the studio, we built the track around that idea, and lyrically it became a reflection on the times I’ve hurt people. The first verse is very much about me, the second shifts perspective, but the core idea is about recognising that we’re all shaped by what we’re given, from our upbringing to our traumas. For me, it’s about accountability, but also compassion and understanding that growth comes from helping people rise, not tearing them down.”
The Mars Volta have shared a new song, “Reina Tormenta / Enlazan Las Tinieblas”, off their upcoming album “Lucro Sucio; Unfinished Business” out November 20th.

Dara Kiely shared this about the song: “’Alogia’ means poverty of speech linked to mental health conditions. I was diagnosed with Schizophrenia while writing the lyrics. I thought I could just walk off the old mental illness but alas!”

Lucien Greaves shared this: “In an effort to preserve reproductive rights in the face of theocratic opposition, The Satanic Temple has opened three abortion clinics and is currently working toward opening a fourth. We named the first of our clinics “Sam Alito’s Mom’s Satanic Abortion Clinic,” and following the opening of the fourth clinic, we are going to sue to establish our religious freedom to ship abortion pharmaceuticals to any state in the U.S. regardless of their restrictions on bodily autonomy. This is our fight, and this is our song about that fight.”
Evil Island shared a new single, “T-Hexx”, off their recently released album “Terraform The Afterlife” out now via Blowed Out Records.
The single features guest vocals from one Guy Picciotto, and he shared this about the song and collaboration: “Last November I got a text from Cody Votolato checking in and asking to talk on the phone. I had worked as a producer with Cody and his Blood Brothers compatriots on their last album ‘Young Machetes’ and those guys had become some of the dearest people in the world to me. The experience of making that record was such a blast – both hilarious in terms of humor and hijinx but also hugely revitalizing to me in terms of getting to watch their musicality, their creativity and their camaraderie up close.
I had been blown away by their reunion shows the year before and had thought they were even better than ever so I was expecting Cody to maybe drop news of more shows in the offing. I certainly wasn’t expecting him to drop the bomb that he, Johnny and Mark had formed a new band with Autry and that they were already fully in deep tracking an album with Ross Robinson back in the producer saddle with them.
I was even more surprised when Cody asked if I would be up for singing back-ups on one of the tracks. Given that my general attitude vis-a-vis the Blood Brothers is that I would take a bullet for any of them, I felt like I had to at least give it a shot despite not having sung on a recording since the last Fugazi album THE ARGUMENT back in 2002.”

Protomartyr have shared the second single, “Feed The Sewer”, off their upcoming album “Hotel Usona” out September 25th via Domino Records.
Andrew Theodore Balasia directed video and shared this about it: “Loneliness in the age of surveillance is the theme we explored for this video. The motel becomes a physical microcosm of data collection, each room a profile, each guest willingly paying to stay in a room that is being monitored by strangers. The banality of what’s being observed becomes its own source of unease, stripping away spectacle until all that remains is the dull, unsettling desire to connect with anything.”
Joe Casey shared this about the song: “The title comes from a line of dialogue in a Peter Greenaway movie. The sentiment of the song is that artificial intelligence is against humanity. The belief is that people are often willing to destroy the world in exchange for convenience. The lyrics are the usual mish-mash of political fears, personal grievances, literary references, and poop jokes. The music is very loud, like a data center.”
