Last Word – fear what you will find
Release Date: 22nd December 2023
Track five from Tasmania, Australia based DIY outfit Last Word saw them close out the year in style, building on what they started in April 2023. With a sound that sits delightfully between various genres, bringing together the best of modern emo vibes with a metalcore heart, ‘fear what you will find’ feel like a homage to the past couple of decades of music and beyond whilst being fresh and unique. There’s soaring vocals, riffs and the chance to singalong. What more do you want really?! And, with another new track on its way, this is a great time to get involved.
Autumn Kings – Sleep When I’m Dead
Release Date: 19th January 2024
For those wanting a turn of the century throwback that brings anthemic rock together with softer nu-metal vibes, ‘Sleep When I’m Dead’ is probably right up your street. Combining elements of euphoric rock with a Mike Shinoda-esque sound, the Detroit trio are utilising as much of that modern vibe as they can, including the use of AI to create the accompanying video. This one’s a fun one and you’ll be hollering it at the top of those lungs for sure.
Dead Superstar – These Voices
Release Date: 9th February 2024

Combining rock elements with some heavier sections, ‘These Voices’ is one of those songs that implores you get every part of that body moving and is one that, despite being fun on record, is likely to be huge live!
