The Flatliners are set to release their highly anticipated album, New Ruin, on August 5th. They’ve already released one single, “Performative Hours,” and they’ve now shared the second, “Souvenir.” Their latest drop brims with a slick chorus that will have you humming for days. Head to FLOOD or our YouTube channel to watch their new video, now! Then, be sure to catch them on tour as they have a whirlwind of dates including Europe, and the U.S. Take a peek at what frontman Chris Cresswell had to say below:
The mind is such a powerful thing – for better or for worse – and this song comes straight from the deep pit anxiety can dig with its help. When a moment’s hesitation can send one spiraling, when the smallest task can stand in the way, when you find it in a place you least expect it, like a souvenir stuffed deep in your drawer, you can let it wash over you or try your best to will it away. “Souvenir” is about finding your footing, even when the ground beneath you can only crumble.
Awkward Reunion are from Berlin, Germany and they recently released their brand new record with SBÄM Records who deliver more and more fantastic releases every month. This is the band´s debut full length album and it contains eleven songs of melodic punk rock kinda reminding me of bands such as Jawbreaker and Off With Their Heads, meaning prevailing mid tempo punk rock with raw yet melodic vocals, great harmonies and emotional and heartfelt lyrics that all of us can relate to. I am sure that material from this record goes superb live delivering tons of energy, pumping fists and singing along and feeling that great interrelation between band on stage and crowd practically erasing the imaginative border between those two. My favorites from this record are One And Only, Girl and Hold On Tight. This one is a keeper! Probably one of the best emotional punk rock records that came out this year, and there is still almost half a year left! Great job, strong debut record.
Indie Punkockers Between Bodies just released a brand new music video for “Stronger than Me”, second single off their debut album Electric Sleep (which will be out on September 30th).
