New Ghost Work Album "Light a Candle for the Lonely" Out March 8th

We’re thrilled to announce that Ghost Work's new album Light a Candle for the Lonely will be released everywhere on March 8th. Ghost Work is a story of escaping cycles, the power of reconnection, and balancing the formative past with an unrevealed future. While time moved forward in fits and starts for Sean Husick (Milemarker), Erin Tate (Minus The Bear), Aaron Stauffer (Seaweed), Dustin Perry (Snapcase), the urge to continue to create remained constant. At its core, Light a Candle For The Lonely is a meditation on the stark contrast between the natural beauty of our world and universe and the uncertainty and de-evolution...

Pohgoh Premieres New Music Video for "Hammer"

We're thrilled to share Pohgoh's new music video for "Hammer." The song was inspired by singer Susie Ulrey’s struggle with multiple sclerosis, and its video is a timelapse of a digital painting of Susie created by animator Michael Knapp (Spies In Disguise, the Ice Age franchise, etc.) “‘Hammer’ is such a disarmingly personal, honest and hauntingly beautiful depiction of what Susie wrestles with internally and externally,” Michael says. “It really resonated with me and brought to mind things my dad (also a musician) expressed to me while he struggled with Parkinson’s disease. In this painting, I was trying to convey...

Welcome Traindodge to the Spartan Family! New Album "The Alley Parade" Out September 22nd

After two decades of timeless records, Oklahoma City’s Traindodge continues their post-hardcore dynasty with the release of their eighth LP, The Alley Parade. Yet, while the band’s collection of canonized albums have become required listening for every budding heavy band since the 90s, and their legacy of hundreds of shows (sharing stages with the likes of Mudhoney, Cursive, Avail, and Botch, to name a few) has impacted thousands, perhaps the biggest mystery surrounding Traindodge is how under-the-radar this band has flown throughout its prolific career. Inspired by the rock soundtrack of the band's youth -- Rush, Thin Lizzy, Blue Oyster...
