Between Bodies back with new emo punk single & video

Emo-Punk German band Between Bodies share the first song since their debut EP „On Fences“  in 2019. It’s an emotional song about one’s own inadequacy to fundamentally and seriously change things.

Between Bodies hail from Cologne, Paderborn and Toronto. With their sound, which is heavily influenced by emo-punk bands from the 00s and early 2010s, the band quickly won a place in the hearts of a group of core fans. With the new song, Between Bodies are beginning a new chapter.

“In the past, I’ve often been unable to come to terms with being hurt by people I care about without ending the relationship,” explains singer and guitarist Christopher Schmidt, “trying to reflect every detail over and over again, analyzing problems and failing to do more than just talk. ‘Lucifer, I Wanna Be Everything’ is a song about one’s own inadequacy to really fundamentally and seriously change such behaviors. Getting a grip on feelings and habitual behavior is difficult. Really changing behaviors is even harder and I have the utmost respect for those who succeed,” he continues.

As for so many bands, the pandemic has had a major impact on Between Bodies’ creative work. Over the past two years, the band has used the time during numerous lockdown nights to tinker with new music using Dropbox folders and in Zoom sessions. A big challenge for everyone involved, as the band only released their very first songs shortly before the pandemic began and just managed to play a few concerts. A little over two years later, “Lucifer, I Wanna Be Everything” is the kick-off for much more to come.

French punk rockers Quitters share new single and video!

French punk-rockers Quitters are back with a brand new track and video: When The Sun Goes Down. The track expresses with great accuracy the feelings one encounters when breaking up with a lover and the lyrics contrast with the joyful feel of the music, its satisfying riffs and infectious energy.

Quitters is a French punk rock band from Montpellier. The band was formed in 2015 and has been touring with the sole purpose of playing as much as possible. Carried by a pure punk rock energy, the texts of the band depict with cynicism and not without humor a world at the end of breath. 

Since then, the band has collaborated with various labels (Inhumano, Bad Mood Asso, Krod Records), sweated out more than 150 concert halls around the world and released two EPs and an album, Good Night Memories. For Quitters, 2022 marks the big comeback with the release of their second album Captain Are We Thinking.

Inspired by The Flatliners, Off With Their Heads or Pup, Quitters does not plagiarize: if the punk rock universe and the DIY culture infuse their music, this one is a vehicle for a creativity, a vision of the world and a sonic patte which are their own.
