Insipidus close their release with Red Sand, a track that lingers with a slow-burning intensity and a sense of emotional erosion. The song unfolds gradually, layering moody instrumentation with introspective vocals that feel both distant and grounded, as if caught between reflection and release. There’s a subtle tension running throughout, with textures that shift like the title suggests—dry, vast, and quietly consuming. It’s a contemplative closer that doesn’t rush resolution, instead letting its atmosphere settle and resonate long after it ends.

It’s titled ‘The Curse Of Public Opinion’ and will be released on August 7 via SideOneDummy.
With the album clocking in at a lean, mean 23 minutes, vocalist Kevin Hart (no, not that one) has spoken about the band’s approach:
“A lot of bands make music about feeling bad but they’re so dialed-in. I think our message is a little more messy, but a lot more human. At the end of the day I’m kind of a quiet, angry guy. I don’t explode, I implode. So when it comes to the songs I don’t try to stop all that from coming through.”
Take a look at the album’s artwork and tracklisting below:

To celebrate the announcement of ‘The Curse Of Public Opinion’, the band have shared the album’s raucous opener ‘Balloon Man Running’.
Slowgazer crafts a quietly immersive soundscape with Blue Noise for Empty Rooms, an instrumental piece that leans into the emotional weight of silence and space. Built on soft layers of ambient textures and distant echoes, the track feels like a slow exhale—subtle, introspective, and deeply atmospheric. There’s a sense of movement within stillness, as tones gently shift and expand, filling the void without ever overwhelming it. It’s music designed for those in-between moments, where memory and presence blur, offering a calm yet haunting backdrop to solitude.
Nico De Luz blurs the line between folk intimacy and hazy shoegaze textures on Don’t Know Anymore, delivering a moody lo-fi rock track that drifts with quiet emotional weight. Built around soft, woozy vocals and understated instrumentation, the song leans into a dreamlike atmosphere where uncertainty becomes the core feeling. There’s a fragile, almost confessional tone throughout, as melodies dissolve into reverb-drenched space, giving the track a sense of distance and introspection. It’s subtle but affecting, capturing that moment where clarity slips and all that’s left is feeling.
Koyo have shared another taste of their second full-length album, and it’s got some of the biggest hooks you’ll hear today.
The new track is titled ‘You Hate Me’, and it’s the third single the band have dropped from ‘Barely Here’, which will be released on May 08 via Pure Noise Records.
Take a listen below:
Following on from previously released tracks ‘What I’m Worth’ and ‘Irreversible’, this album is shaping up to be something very specal.
Speaking on where ‘Barely Here’ sits for the band, vocalist Joey Chiaramonte has shared:
“A lot of bands think their second album has to be this magnum opus epic that sews so many things together, and I think we’d actually taken more of that approach with our first LP. So with ‘Barely Here’, we wanted to do the opposite of that trajectory–we wanted to refine our strengths instead of doing this purposeful departure. It’s a snapshot of what our band is in its most no-frills, perfected form.”

Siamese have revealed everything you need to know about their upcoming album, the follow-up to 2024’s ‘Elements’.
Titled ‘dissolution’, it will be released on June 26 via Long Branch Records, ahead of their upcoming UK and European shows with Dayseeker and Northlane.
The band’s most personal release to date, the album will include previously released single ‘drown’ and the freshly dropped ‘dark’. Written during a period marked by the departure one of their main songwriters, the album serves as a recalibration of Siamese and a reassessment of their intentions. Oh, and it’s set to be heavier than ever before.

The band are set to support Dayseeker across the UK and Europe later this year alongside Northlane. Here are all the dates:
The Lonely Mts tap into a gritty, vintage pulse with Intercom 3B, a garage rock burner infused with rockabilly swagger and bluesy edge. Driven by raw guitar tones and a tight, no-frills rhythm section, the track carries a restless energy that feels both immediate and nostalgic. There’s a sense of urgency in the delivery, as if the song is unfolding in real time, while the vocals add a rough-edged storytelling quality that fits the band’s themes of struggle and resilience. It’s unpolished in the best way—lean, loud, and emotionally direct, capturing that fleeting moment between chaos and clarity.
