Watch: The Royal Foundry Reveal New Single/Video "Listen To The Beat"

Canada indie pop/electro/alt band The Royal Foundry have revealed the video for their new single "Listen To The Beat".

The song is out today (October 29) and "pays homage to life on the road and their love of playing live music". Grab it here.

From the band: "On a long drive back to Canada from Nashville, we started belting out lyric ideas to help keep us awake. This brought up memories of our past tours and driving late into the night to get to the next city, and how much we missed that as we looked into the unknown of future tour plans."

This euphoric song captures being in a crowded, sweaty room at a live show listening to good music, surrounded by strangers who all share that same love for the experience. The longing for a night to never end, that favourite song to be on repeat, and just vibing because nothing else in the world matters.

Watch: TRAITRS Unleash New Single/Video "Ghost And The Storm"

Canadian post punk/darkwave duo TRAITRS have unleashed the video for their new single "Ghost And The Storm".

The song is taken from their upcoming new album 'Horses In The Abattoir', which will be available on November 19 through Berlin-based label Freakwave Records. Pre-order your copy here.

“Ghost and the Storm’ is exactly that - a ghost of a track. A forgotten spirit from our past. It was too ahead of its time for us to even know what to do with it at the time we wrote it, so it remained in anonymity for several years.   believing your entire life that when you die you’ll go somewhere better but the reality is you just return to nothing, nowhere. To sleep and never remember your dreams is equivalent to how we die," says Shawn Tucker.

Sean-Patrick Nolan elucidates, “The video pays homage to 'Rabbit In Your Headlights' by UNKLE, one of our all-time favourite songs and videos. It depicts the uneasy feeling of questioning your own sanity as it slowly slips away from you. We intentionally left it ambiguous as to who this troubled man is and what’s causing him to be so paranoid and erratic. We are our only connection to the outside world, so when the line between reality and fiction is gradually blurred and you start to feel ill at ease in our own mind and flesh, that’s a truly terrifying and isolating thing to experience. Vince Groulx did a great job of capturing that sense of foreboding paranoia while your emotions jump from one extreme to another. The human mind is more vulnerable and susceptible to these fluctuations than we realize."

Joywave Announce New LP 'Cleanse', Stream "Cyn City 2000"

New York indie rock/pop band Joywave have announced the release of their fourth studio album 'Cleanse'.

The follow-up to last year's Possession, was written and recorded in frontman Daniel Armbruster’s home studio, and will be on February 11th, 2022 via Cultco Music/Hollywood Records, Inc. Pre-order your copy here.

“With our dense touring schedule shelved, I was able to reflect on past travels and appreciate them in a new way,” Armbruster said in a press release. “But reminders of our fragile mortality were everywhere, punctuated by the ongoing pandemic and civil unrest. The music began to encompass all of this. It became the words, encouragement, and occasional cautions that I would want to share with you if this was the last time we spoke. And with all this time spent looking inward came the realization that there were still a few chips I was carrying on my shoulder that I needed to let go of.”

The band have also shared their new single "Cyn City 2000", “Comparing yourself to others is a recipe for disaster every time,” Armbruster says of the song. “The pandemic allowed me to slow down and take in what we’ve been able to do over the last several years and left me feeling both grateful for the past and excited for the future.”
