Waterparks Release Music Video for "The Secret Life of Me"

Today, Waterparks release the music video for "The Secret Life of Me" off their latest album, Greatest Hits. Directed by Erik Rojas & frontman Awsten Knight, the music video takes on a glitchy and saturated style to create an all-around captivating visual that portrays the song's theme of dissociation and escaping reality.


Waterparks recently released their long-awaited fourth album Greatest Hits which features notable singles "Just Kidding", "You'd Be Paranoid Too (If Everyone Was Out To Get You)", "Numb" and "Snow Globe". The Greatest Hits release marked a brand new era for the band and they have plenty more up their sleeves! The guys are gearing up for a headline tour, A NIGHT OUT ON EARTH TOUR FEAT WATERPARKS, which kicks off this fall (get tickets HERE)


ABOUT WATERPARKS:

Waterparks never sit still. The Houston trio—Awsten Knight [vocals, guitar], Otto Wood [drums], and Geoff Wigington [guitar]—manically move forward, shucking and jiving between fits of rock, alternative, and electronic with pop ambition and hip-hop’s bold and blatant disregard for the rules. As they usher in the Greatest Hits era, the band only pick up the pace. Waterparks has garnered a cult following for their animated musical stylings. 2019’s FANDOM elevated them to new critical and commercial peaks. Marking a series of career bests, it landed at #2 on the Billboard Top Alternative Albums Chart, granting their first Top 40 debut on the Billboard Top 200. KERRANG! rated it “KKKK” and MTV admitted, “We have no choice but to stan.” As the band nears 400 million cumulative streams to date, it yielded fan favorites, including 'I Miss Having Sex But At Least I Don’t Wanna Die Anymore,' 'Turbulent,' and 'Watch What Happens Next.'

Sean Penn says, “After this flood of gorgeous songs from Cat Power, Glen Hansard, and Eddie Vedder, we were just about to do a final mix on the film when Ed sent me Olivia singing ‘My Father’s Daughter.’ It became just the perfect cherry on top of the sundae.”



The upcoming soundtrack found Eddie Vedder bringing together Glen Hansard and noted singer-songwriter Cat Power who contributes three new original songs, along with one cover. It also features the debut of Olivia Vedder on two tracks. In total Vedder and Hansard collaborated on eight new compositions for the soundtrack. See the full tracklist below.

In the same year, Hansard starred in and wrote the music for the film “Once”, which would earn him an Academy® Award for Best Original Song (“Falling Slowly”).

Praise for the soundtrack has begun to roll in with features from LoudWire, Audacy, and more, while NME described “My Father’s Daughter” as “a moving ode to adopting the traits of your parents.”

L.A. GUNS ANNOUNCES NEW ALBUM "CHECKERED PAST"
unnamed-16.jpg

Long running hard rockers L.A. Guns have announced the release of their new studio album, "Checkered Past" on November 12, 2021. Fans can get their first preview of the album with the release of the single 'Knock Me Down'. Listen HERE: https://youtu.be/ZH8RSCh8Z-U


Pre-order/save "Checkered Past" on CD/Color Vinyl/Digital HERE: https://orcd.co/checkeredpast


Written and recorded during late 2020 and early 2021, "Checkered Past" sees Tracii Guns, Phil Lewis, and company continuing with the darker lyrical tone of the preceding studio albums, "The Devil You Know" and "The Missing Peace", while incorporating their classic rock influences into the mix. Heavier songs are mixed with bluesier, boogie inducing tracks and dark, introspective ballads, often harkening back to the first three albums the band made, but also pushing the band forward. When fans absorb the album as a whole, they'll see that the tracklisting is divided up into 'sets' or 'suites', where a sonic style is explored across multiple songs before moving on to the next, making for a remarkable listening experience.


Feeling inspired and excited like they did when they first started out, but with many years of wisdom and experience under their belts, and most importantly, a renewed and stronger creative and personal relationship, Guns and Lewis are maintaining a creative peak that started with "The Missing Peace". "Checkered Past" shows a band invigorated and ready to bash you over the head, as well as “wow” you with some epic, slower songs, and even make you dance a bit to some rock 'n roll.

Since their self-titled debut in 1988 to the widely praised comeback albums "The Missing Peace" and "The Devil You Know", L.A. GUNS, led by Tracii Guns and Phil Lewis have always delivered solid rock ‘n roll to their fans. This current incarnation of the band has been touring non-stop, with a notable break coinciding with all other touring bands, and the cohesiveness of the unit, not to mention Phil’s stunning and unique vocals and Guns’ mind-bending guitar playing, are on full display here. A must hear and listen for all fans of the band, both new and old.

L.A. Guns never looked like the pretty poster boys that so many of their peers did, but more the band that you would be terrified to bump into in an alley as they would likely be carrying switchblades and ready for a fight. But despite having many songs to back up that image, the band could also write powerful ballads (see the smash hit, “The Ballad Of Jayne” for Exhibit A of this argument) that showed there were some serious songwriting chops in the band. Those chops are on full display on the band's two most recent studio albums and the upcoming new album, "Checkered Past," arguably one of the most vital and exciting releases in the band’s catalog.

LIL TECCA RELEASES MUSIC VIDEO FOR “REPEAT IT” FEAT. GUNNA
unnamed-8.png

Today, multiplatinum rapper Lil Tecca reveals the slick and cinematic music video for his explosive new track “Repeat It” feat. Gunna via Galactic Records/Republic Records.




In the visual, Tecca turns up in a purple world. He cruises at high speeds hanging out the window of a luxury ride, raps to the camera as special effects pop off around him, and links up with Gunna for a climactic sequence, illuminating their chemistry together. Once again, he delivers a larger-than-life video reflective of his outsized persona.

Right out of the gate, “Repeat It” has amassed over 6 million global streams and counting in addition to scoring widespread critical acclaim.

Hyping anticipation for the official release, Tecca initially previewed the track on Instagram, and it impressively has generated over 1.5 million views. On the official version, he lights up a piano-driven beat with his nimbly spun wordplay. Meanwhile, multiplatinum superstar Gunna rolls through with his signature drip, igniting the production.

It follows up his anthemic “Money On Me, which has already amassed over 5 million streams and counting. In addition to plugs from Revolt TV and more, HotNewHipHop observed, Tecca floats as he sing-raps tales of paradise and the benefits of the lavish lifestyle.
Everything just sets the stage for his anxiously awaited new album and one of the year’s most-anticipated sequels, We Love You Tecca 2, coming soon.

Watch Tecca repeat his dominance in 2021…

His single “Never Left” has gathered over 116 million streams to date and serves as his ninth Hot 100 hit. Lyrical Lemonade hailed it as “an absolute banger in every sense of the word,and Rap Radar raved, Lil Tecca’s back like he’s ‘Never Left’.” The Musical Hype praised the flows as “compelling, energetic, and rhythmic, while HotNewHipHop added it “proves that his melodic instincts are still sharp.

Following a standout set at Rolling Loud - Miami, he takes the stage at Lyrical Lemonade – Summer Smash August 20 and Rolling Loud – Los Angeles December 14-15.

Posting up over 7 billion streams and claiming multiple platinum certifications, Lil Tecca has quietly cemented himself as one of rap’s most vital rising superstars. In 2020, his full-length debut album, Virgo World, bowed in the Top 10 of the Billboard Top 200 and yielded two Hot 100 entries—namely “Dolly” with Lil Uzi Vert and “When You Down” feat. Lil Durk with Polo G. Thus far, the record has clocked over 300 million streams and counting. HotNewHipHop praised it as “a great starting point for the 18-year-old. Tecca first exploded with his platinum-certified mixtape, We Love You Tecca, and his breakout quadruple-platinum single “Ransom” in 2019. He reeled in acclaim from New York Times, Billboard, HYPEBEAST, Complex, and many others in addition to selling out shows on his first headline run, the We Love You Tecca World Tour. He launches into his next chapter with lots of new music in 2021.

ZILLAKAMI DROPS NEW SINGLE AND VIDEO “FROSTY”

ZILLAKAMI DROPS NEW SINGLE “FROSTY”

Screen Shot 2021-07-27 at 7.02.47 PM.png

Today, ZillaKami of City Morgue reveals a haunting and melodic new single and music video entitled “FROSTY” via Hikari Ultra/Republic Records.



On the track, ZillaKami’s chilling harmonies puncture an airy clean guitar riff as he declares, “Hello depression, I hear your message.” The accompanying video translates this anxiety and darkness on-screen. Rolling through a slasher flick-style suburb, sadness manifests as a dark figure pushing ZillaKami in a shopping cart as he watches his girl from outside of her bedroom window. Hand covered in blood, he ultimately emerges from this nightmare stronger. You’ll have to watch it to find out how…

His most recent solo single “BADASS” [feat. Lil Uzi Vert] has already generated north of 6 million streams and 1.9 million YouTube views on the static audio. Right out of the gate, it garnered widespread tastemaker praise as well. Complex attested the track “channels the best of Zillakami’s distinctively hard-hitting approach to rap,” and The FADER praised it as “the perfect blend of ZillaKami's dark sound and Uzi Vert's playful delivery.” HotNewHipHop highlighted the “earworm of a hook” and “two electrifying verses” courtesy of ZillaKami."

Prior, “CHAINS” posted up 2.6 million Spotify streams and 2.9 million views on the explosive music video. HotNewHipHop fittingly described it as “a hard-hitting, head-banging anthem.”

ZillaKami might be rap and rock’s worst nightmare come true in the best way. He defiantly devours guitar-backed beats without one fuck given. As one-half of City Morgue with partner-in-grime SosMula, he has toppled charts, sold out shows, and scared the shit out of anybody with a conscience. In 2019, the group’s second full-length offering, CITY MORGUE VOL. 2: AS GOOD AS DEAD, held multiple charts hostage, seizing the #1 spot on the Billboard Top Rock Albums Chart and #1 on the Apple Music Rock Albums Chart. The legendary Mike Dean jumped aboard as Executive Producer of the Deluxe Edition. Meanwhile, the 2020 follow-up TOXIC BOOGALOO EP scored #96 on the Billboard Top 200, #9 on the Billboard Top Album Sales Chart, #6 on the Billboard Alternative Albums Chart, #13 on the Billboard Top Rock Albums Chart, and #4 on the Nielsen Music Digital Albums Chart. Not to mention, they’ve pulled in 100 million-plus streams and 100 million-plus views to date. ZillaKami is a rare talent who is seamlessly rising to the ranks of major artists such as Trippie Redd and Ski Mask The Slump God, with whom he recently collaborated. He’s a shape-shifting sonic force with an unbreakable grip on rap and rock that’s ready to bleed like never before on his 2021 solo debut.

LA's 18-Year-Old Mystery Rose Announces 10/15 Album & Releases Video

18-Year-Old Mystery Rose Announces Debut LP “Socially Distant” Out October 15

unnamed-13.jpg

"Lovebirds on the Weekend," released August 2nd is a timeless, classic rock banger from Mystery Rose's debut LP Socially Distant. At just 18, her phenomenal talent is evident on every track. Deployed in torch ballads and pop-punk numbers, her wise-beyond her-years songwriting imbues the 11 songs. Mystery Rose sets herself apart with emo pop-punk twists, complemented by Dan West’s spot-on arrangements. Mystery Rose—aka Zoe Rose –commands the kineticism of youth while realizing there are some lessons people never stop learning. “There are no new stories, but we can put modern twists on age-old problems,” says Rose. She tells Spill Magazine, “The song taps into that anger or resentment you have towards your ex. It's so satisfying to sing these lyrics, ' I don’t give a fuck about you or your girlfriend/ Last thing on my mind is you lovebirds on the weekend.' However, then the human emotion takes over. My favorite line in the song is: ' I loved you then/ I love you now/I loved you never/I don’t know which one is better.'



On her debut LP Socially Distant (out October 15, 2021), LA’s Mystery Rose establishes herself as an emerging rock/pop phenom. Deployed in torch ballads and pop-punk numbers, her wise-beyond her-years songwriting imbues the 11 songs. Though she’s obviously grown up with millennial pop stars like Miley Cyrus, Mystery Rose sets herself apart with emo pop-punk twists worthy of Mitski or Soccer Mommy, complemented by Dan West’s spot-on arrangements. Mystery Rose—aka Zoe Rose –commands the kineticism of youth while realizing there are some lessons people never stop learning. “There are no new stories, but we can put modern twists on age-old problems,” says Rose.

With these songs, she does just that, holding space for nostalgia, anger, and reckoning alike.“All of the songs have a theme of isolation, loneliness and break ups. However, there is also a feeling of acceptance,” she explains. She’s cultivated these songs under the tutelage of musician-producer Dan West (d’Animal, LoveyDove, Sidewalk Society), who also produced Socially Distant from, a, well, social distance. West had helped Rose realize not only her talent but her desire to make music early on. “I was intrigued with him immediately because he acted more like a student than an adult and always had two fistfuls of coffee,” Rose laughs. Working with West and his wife, the psychedelia-indie rock singer-songwriter Azalia Snail, Rose has been steadily writing and recording. She’s dropped five singles since 2018, and they’ve caught the ears of Indie Alliance DJ’s, including Rodney Bingenheimer, whose “Rodney on the ROQ” show launched a host of legendary artists (Blondie, Joan Jett, Nirvana).

Mystery Rose’s songs are commanding attention with good reason. On Socially Distant, Rose reaches deeper into her storytelling, releasing a powerful arsenal of timely songs whose themes are evergreen. West’s arrangements support the versatility of Rose’s singing and writing. Throughout, she stays true to her love of live instruments, not including any programmed beats on the album. Rose has a backing band as well and is eager for venues to re-open.

Rose says lead single “Stability” is “about relationships. No matter who breaks things off, it affects your stability and your confidence about moving forward in another relationship. The lyrics revisit the happy parts of a relationship alongside memories of feeling pain—and of causing it. “Chances are you can’t see / you are messing with my stability / eternally,” Rose sings. The verses, built on guitar strums and a softly emotive voice, give way to an up-tempo, drum-driven chorus.

Later, “Picture Perfect” takes listeners on a sweeping journey with dramatic twists and turns of tuneful exuberance that will leave no heartstrings un-tugged. The chorus finds Rose’s voice sounding both ethereal and rich. “It is about seeking that perfect state of balance,” Rose explains. The song shows off her vocal range and ability to pull off high-production ballads, all while eloquently capturing a moment.

While the songs on Socially Distant run the sonic gamut, they’re clearly written by the same deft hand, felt by the same bruised heart, and sung by a voice that has a lot more to say.

Socially Distant will be released October 13, 2021 and available at all major streaming sites, including bandcamp and Soundcloud. It will also be released on vinyl.

Steve Hanft (Beck, The Cure) directed music videos for the singles, and the video “Stability”--featuring a motorcycle journey through the California hills-- has already been released.

The album was produced and engineered by Dan West at Victory Way Studios in Shadow Hills, CA.
