ALL ALBUMS/EPS SUBMITTED AND
DISCOVERED VIA MUSOSOUP
1.- REPEAT. THE RAT RACE. THE SOUND OF THE RAT RACE… WHAT COMES TO MIND FOR YOU WHEN YOU THINK OF IT? AHH… THE SOUND OF US MANICALLY WORKING THROUGH THE DAILY GRIND OF NAVIGATING THIS MAZE WE CALL LIFE. WHAT WOULD THAT SOUND LIKE?! WATCH OUT FOR THAT ELECTRIFIED CHEESE, IS WHAT I’D SAY TO THAT. AS THE SWEDISH BAND REPEAT WOULD SAY, “GET READY FOR DEATH.” You can keep reading our review here.
2.- THE TRAP-MEETS-METAL PROJECT FROM LOS ANGELES, LOVE GHOST, HAS RELEASED “SCREAM”, A 5-TRACK EP RECORDED IN MEXICO, IN COLLABORATION WITH A VARIETY OF MEXICAN ARTISTS! “THE SONGS ON THE EP ARE ENERGETIC, IMMEDIATE, AND EXTREME.” OUT NOW! You can keep reading Love Ghost’s review here.
3.- HEATHER SMITH IS A SINGER-SONGWRITER FROM NEW HAMPSHIRE WHO’S JUST RELEASED HER DEBUT ALBUM, STRONGER, AND WHAT A JOURNEY HAS IT BEEN FOR HER UNTIL THIS! THE ARTIST HAS COME A LONG WAY, STARTING OUT AS A BACKUP SINGER AND SUB-LEAD SINGER ON OTHER PROJECTS UNTIL HER FIRST BAND GLITTER & CAMO, ALL WHILE STRUGGLING AND SHOWING BRAVE RESILIANCE IN ORDER NOT TO QUIT MUSIC ENTIRELY. THE 51-YEAR-OLD SINGER EVENTUALLY CAME INTO HER OWN WITH STRONGER, A STUNNING AND DELICATE WORK WITHIN THE ALTERNATIVE COUNTRY REALM THAT RECOUNTS HER TALES BEAUTIFULLY AND CONFIDENTLY. You can keep reading our review here.
4.- Raised on TV is an indie rock band from the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles, CA, that was formed by brothers Keaton Rogers and Kacey Greenwood in 2016. “Make Time to Make Time” is the 5th studio album from Raised on TV. They tracked the album at a house they rented for a week and turned into a studio in Joshua Tree, CA.
5.- Elephants in Paradise “Reincarnation” is a sonic journey featuring three compelling tracks: the titular track “Reincarnation”, “Basic Instinct” and “Take This Hand” (the first single release). The EP serves as a continuation of the band’s “Extinction Trilogy,” with each composition unfolding like a phoenix rising from the ashes. As an extension of the second album, “Reincarnation” ties together the themes of resurrection and renewal.
6.- Selena Tibert “The Fool” EP. The artist is an indie folk singer-songwriter and instrumentalist based out of Brooklyn, New York. In her own words: “My music explores themes of anxiety, identity, and expectations—whether they’re real or not. I was the producer on the EP and worked with many talented NY based musicians and dear friends to bring it all together.”
7.- Render Me Useless is a New Jersey alternative metal band, formed by twin brothers Travis and Justin Turk. After the sessions for 2023 EP Hit The Rewind, the band hit the studio again to record 5 additional tracks. And decided to track them live in the studio! This gives the songs a raw and pure vitality and also shows that nothing beats real music and honest musicians. Listen to “Past Tense” now!
8.- Paul Dill‘s (Folk-Rock, Indie-Folk, Singer-Songwriter) debut Album ‘Courage is a Curse’ released on June 07th. Featuring the singles “Naked Rabbit” and “Peace” co-written with grammy winning conductor Jules Buckley and produced and mixed by Fingerstyle guitarist Ivo Vollering.
9.- Zelda Mab “Elettricità”. In her own words: “My music comes from the desire to create something new. Erase from your head the homologated sounds that have been fed to you over the last 15 years. DIY is about to return. Zelda Mab is tired of the usual 4 producers who make music for everyone and it is always all the same. This is me. I’m true. I tell you this by singing and playing to the best of my ability. This light comes from me and no one else. I am here and now.
