Platinum-certified, 5x #1 Hard Rock radio-charting Los Angeles group BAD WOLVES get personal on their new album DIE ABOUT IT, out today, November 3, via Better Noise Music. The Los Angeles-based group—John Boecklin [drums], Daniel “DL” Laskiewicz [lead vocals], Doc Coyle [lead guitar, backing vocals] and Kyle Konkiel [bass, backing vocals]— deliver 13 tracks of earthquaking heaviness and distinctive melodies on DIE ABOUT IT while experimenting and redefining their sound including nods to inspirations as diverse as The 1975 and Meshuggah. Co-produced with Josh Gilbert (As I Lay Dying) alongside Boecklin and DL, BAD WOLVES tackle themes of dismissing bullies and trolls, dissolving toxic friendships, and dealing with loss and addiction with unconstraint. DIE ABOUT IT is available now on digital download, CD, cassette and multiple color vinyl variants at https://badwolves.ffm.to/dieaboutit.

“From the artwork to the music our new album feels more personal,” says Boecklin. “This album is about us surviving through lawsuits, the member changes, the online hate, and the false narratives. We wanna bring back the energy of us making music because we want to, not all the other crap. The album title is a sarcastic statement towards those debating online in turmoil, defending or pushing their own beliefs to the point of absurdity. If you’re gonna cry about it, then you might as well ‘Die About It.’ Leave us out of it.”

BAD WOLVES have today shared a lyric video for their anthemic new single, “Savior,” a track written about someone being there for you in your time of need. Watch it now streaming below or HERE. The group’s first official radio single, “Legends Never Die,” is currently in the Top 20 on the Active Rock radio charts and rising. To date, it has garnered over 1 million streams and 344k video views.

This album is like having your cake and eating it too.  Bad Wolves have mastered an accessible blend of big rock choruses paired with exciting metal riffs… and I’m here for it.”
Jonny Hawkins (Nothing More)

The band will hit the road later this Fall with British rock icons BUSH on their “Nothing To Go But Everywhere” North American tour alongside labelmates Eva Under Fire from November 14 to December 6. BAD WOLVES have announced a series of headlining shows before and after the tour with support from Eva Under Fire and Uncured. See full dates listed below.

Lauded by Earmilk as one of 2023’s “acts to watch out for,” Los Angeles-based pop-punk & hip-hop infused singer-songwriter CHLOE STAR has released a cinematic music video for her new single “Fool,” which premiered today, November 2, via YouTube. The “Fool” music video was directed by Ricardo Emmanuel (Usher, Nike) and is the first of an anthology of upcoming videos that will be paired with songs from her recording session with producer Kevin Thrasher (Gwen Stefani, Blink 182, Machine Gun Kelly). Watch “Fool” music video streaming below or on YouTube HERE. Stream/download “Fool” digitally at https://too.fm/y1maryl.

“Shooting the music video was quite an experience because I was able to tap into a character that let me play as another version of myself,” reveals CHLOE. “I wrote this song while I was in a place where I thought every decision that I was making was foolish. Foolish, because I wasn’t given any instruction manual on how to move through life. I didn’t have any proper example set when it came to intimate relationships, friendships, or self-love when growing up, which kinda just set me up for failure. I cannot confirm or deny if the music video is based on actual events. I’ll leave that up to the viewer.”

Having both Indigenous and Persian heritage, CHLOE uses her distinct sound to amplify the voices of her bloodline. Her lush, electro-pop vocal stylings and trap-infused beats stem from influences including icons such as Janis Joplin, Amy Winehouse and Kurt Cobain as well as modern-day acts including Jessie Rayes, Billie Eilish, and Willow. CHLOE released her debut single “Element” in January and soon followed it up with “Straight Girls,” which shared her journey exploring her own sexuality and identifying as gay, which garnered over 64K YouTube views.

With a refreshed lineup consisting of original members and songwriters MAX (vocals, guitar) and COLE BECKER (vocals, guitar)—and the addition of their brother CADE BECKER on bass—SWMRS have self-released a new album, SONIC TONIC, out now digitally. Tapping into disparate influences ranging from the Greek songs of friend and mentor Mihalis Hionas to the honky-tonk stylings of guitar teacher Mitch Polzak, SWMRS continue to draw inspiration from the music they grew up with, crafting unique hooks and vivid lyrics to draw listeners into their distinctive brand of punk music. Stream/download SONIC TONIC at https://found.ee/SonicTonic.

The trio have released a visualizer video for the single “DIY” today, November 1, which can be seen streaming below or via the band’s YouTube channel HERE. With lyrics catering to SWMR’s independent stature, “So, you gotta make the choice: Are you gonna make some noise? Start your own paradise, Gotta D I, oh D I Y. It’s D I Y,” it’s a fitting statement regarding SONIC TONIC.

“The song is about getting back up when you are down, and being the only one that can change your own fate,” shares MAX. “If you want to ‘race’ again, it’s going to be because you made it happen yourself.”

Raised in the Bay Area of California, SWMRS will celebrate SONIC TONICs release and the new lineup with a headlining show November 19 in their hometown of Berkeley, CA at Cornerstone. Tickets are on sale now HERE.

TONIGHT, OCTOBER 31 IN SEATTLE, WA
IN SUPPORT OFF NEW BOOK
“THE GREATEST BAND THAT EVER WASN’T: THE STORY OF THE SCREAMING TREES”
AND FORTHCOMING MUSIC TRAVEL SHOW
“SINGING EARTH WITH BARRETT MARTIN”

TOUR DATES & TICKETS AVAILABLE HERE

Grammy-winning producer, composer, percussionist and writer BARRETT MARTIN will be hitting the road tonight, Tuesday, October 31, to kick off his one-man show, the “Singing Earth Tour 2023,” in support of his new book THE GREATEST BAND THAT EVER WASN’T: THE STORY OF THE SCREAMING TREES due November 3 via Sunyata Books and his forthcoming music and travel series “Singing Earth with Barrett Martin” via VEVO. The tour will kick off in Seattle, WA at Here-After and will wrap around the East Coast and back ending in Denver, CO on December 10 at HQ. See full dates listed below. Tickets can be found HERE. The tour will include stories from MARTIN’s 30-year history in the music industry including his time drumming for Seattle’s pioneering and iconic grunge/rock acts Skin Yard, supergroup Mad Season (including Mike McCready of Pearl Jam and Layne Staley of Alice in Chains), Walking Papers (including Duff McKagan of Guns N’ Roses) and Screaming Trees and stories from his work producing over 100 rock, blues, jazz, and world music albums including REM, Queens of The Stone Age¸ Mad Season and Blues legend CeDell Davis. During the show, MARTIN will perform a soundtrack using various instruments as screens play his upcoming VEVO series, “Singing Earth with Barrett Martin.” The video series follows MARTIN on his travels around the world recording sessions from the Peruvian Amazon, to Brazil, Cuba, Jerusalem, and the Alaskan Arctic.

MARTIN shares: “I decided to do this one-man tour because I had several things coming out at about the same time: my book about the Screaming Trees, ‘The Greatest Band That Ever Wasn’t,’ will be released on November 3 worldwide, and my new series about music around the world, ‘Singing Earth with Barrett Martin,’ will be released shortly on VEVO. I just thought, well, I’m no longer in a rock band and it’s been 10 years since I toured the United States and Europe. Maybe I should just go out there, tell some good stories about my music adventures around the world, and show some of the short films from my new series. I’m even playing various music instruments for the soundtrack to the films, so it’s quite a multi-media adventure. It’s a very different kind of show, but I think people are going to love it.”

Known as The World’s Greatest Pink Floyd Experience, the group will follow this year’s dates with a massive 2024 world tour. It’s a 90-city tour of North America, plus shows in 45 cities in the UK, and Europe to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Pink Floyd’s Pulse and The Division Bell albums. More details about the 2024 dates will be announced in the coming weeks.

The fall 2023 50 Years of Dark Side tour features over two and a half hours of Pink Floyd music encompassing the band’s iconic career. BRIT FLOYD’s team have created a show that includes state-of-the-art visuals (lights, lasers, and animation) which are all presented with immersive soundscapes and virtuosic musicianship. When the tour wraps, the 50 Years of Dark Side trek will have encompassed more than 108 dates with return stops in many markets, alongside first-ever performances in other markets. The Dark Side Of The Moon, released in 1973, is one of the most critically acclaimed albums of all time and includes Pink Floyd’s iconic single “Money.”

Formed in 2011, Brit Floyd consists of performances supported by an immense, immaculately curated state-of-the-art production, reverently emulating the stunning soundscapes and visuals of Pink Floyd’s iconic catalog.

Alternative Pop Visionary GIA FORD Today Releases Captivating New Single ‘Falling In Love Again’ Via Chrysalis Records

DATE: OCTOBER 25, 2023

GIA FORD
RELEASES NEW SINGLE
‘FALLING IN LOVE AGAIN’
LISTEN HERE | WATCH HERE

TODAY (OCTOBER 25)
ALSO CONFIRMED AS OFFICIAL ARTIST
FOR SXSW 2024

Today (October 25) alternative pop visionary GIA FORD has released her captivating new single ‘Falling in Love Again’ via Chrysalis Records. Listen here and watch the video here.

Falling in Love Again’ is an unusual but poignant depiction of how grief makes us behave in ways we wouldn’t expect.

“This song is based on a story my friends told me about their dad and his late wife, and how for a while after her death, no one could replace her. He used to dress his new girlfriends in clothes like hers,” GIA explains. “At first it sounds odd, and might make you feel uncomfortable. But really it’s a love song, just told in a different way.”

For GIA FORD, those figures on the fringes of society are by far the most fascinating. Her songs tell the stories of the downtrodden to the downright dangerous. Her haunting previous single ‘Alligator’ (released this past summer) perfectly illustrates this, and through her vivid storytelling, we begin to hear familiar, uncomfortable truths about ourselves.

The UK-based GIA was recently announced as an official artist for SXSW 2024. Meantime, back home GIA was also announced as part of The Great Escape’s FIRST FIFTY, which will see her headline Paper Dress Vintage, London, at their launch on November 15. Tickets are available here.

Stay tuned for updates on GIA’s plans for 2024.

Galvanizing modern classic rock trio THE BLACK MOODS are excited to announce their new single, an electrifying cover of The Doors’ 1970’s hit “Roadhouse Blues,” which features none other than The Doors’ guitarist Robby Krieger himself and rock singer-songwriter Diamante. The track will be available digitally Friday, October 20; pre-save it HERE. Recorded at Krieger’s Los Angeles studio, Love Street Sound, the band recorded the cover with most of the same gear used by The Doors in its original recording, keeping its nostalgic and gritty sound while allowing THE BLACK MOODS to add their modern flair. THE BLACK MOODS—JOSH KENNEDY (vocals, guitar), CHICO DIAZ (drums), and JORDAN HOFFMAN (bass)—have today (October 19) debuted the music video for “Roadhouse Blues (feat. Robby Krieger and Diamante),” which features live footage from the recording session. Watch it streaming below or via YouTube HERE.

“The Doors have meant a lot to us, from our band name to the way we approach playing and songwriting,” shares KENNEDY. “Getting to record this song with Robby 53 years after he recorded it with The Doors is something I can’t describe…just unbelievable. Having Diamante add her incredible vocals on it just took it over the top.”

“Lately, I seem to meet more and more young muscians who are into The Doors,” says KRIEGER. “It was really fun recording ‘Roadhouse Blues’ with The Black Moods.  They seem to connect with 60’s style music.”

“‘Roadhouse Blues’ was the first rock song I ever performed on a stage, so when The Black Moods, whose classic rock vibe I really dig, asked if I wanted to sing on their version alongside THE Robby Krieger, it was an absolute yes from me,” exclaims Diamante. “Recording the song was a very full circle moment and an all-around epic experience.”

THE BLACK MOODS have partnered with Gibson to host a guitar giveaway contest surrounding the single for an Epiphone hand-signed guitar by all three band members, Robby Krieger, and Diamante. The deadline to enter is Friday, November 17 and a winner will be announced on Monday, November 20 across the band’s socials. U.S.-based fans only can enter to win now at https://theblackmoods.com/signed-guitar-giveaway/.

THE BLACK MOODS play raw, amplified rock & roll. A classic power trio for the modern world, they turn the genre’s timeless ingredients—electric guitar, anthemic hooks, and percussive punch—into a sound that’s both contemporary and climactic. Based out of Phoenix, AZ, the band have relentlessly toured across North America alongside acts including The Doors’ Robby Krieger, Shinedown, Jane’s Addiction, Whitesnake, Collective Soul, The Dead Daisies and The Gin Blossoms and made festival appearances at Aftershock and Roger Clyne’s Circus Mexicus. The trio released their fourth album INTO THE NIGHT in 2022 via Wit Hustle/The Orchard/Steelhorse Entertainment with Grammy Award-nominated producer Johnny “K” Karkazis (Disturbed, 3 Doors Down) which was lauded by Metal Edge Magazine as “raw, riff-heavy, blues-drenched rock delivered with a nod to the classic acts that came before them, but filtered through a youthful, high-energy lens.” It also saw THE BLACK MOODS release their own limited-edition beer, “Hollywood & Lime,” with Phoenix’s Walter Station Brewery as well as a limited-release bourbon “Bad News Bourbon” via Phoenix’s SanTan Brewing Company.

THE BLACK MOODS’ seminal 2020 album SUNSHINE earned the band four Top 30 singles–including their first-ever Top 20 charting hit with title track, “Sunshine,” which peaked at #16 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock radio charts. The band have garnered strong hometown support throughout their career including cover features from Entertainer! Magazine and Phoenix New Times in addition to features and appearances via The Arizona Republic, AZFamily (CBS5) “Good Morning Arizona,” Arizona PBS, and a half-time performance for the Phoenix Suns (NBA) 2022 semi-finals game.

CHLOE STAR
DEBUTS NEW SINGLE
“FOOL”
TODAY, OCTOBER 19

DEBUT EP DUE IN 2024 WITH PRODUCER
KEVIN THRASHER (GWEN STEFANI, BLINK 182, MACHINE GUN KELLY)

“Cuz I’m foolish
Screw this
Nobody taught me to do this”

Emerging pop-punk/hip-hop artist CHLOE STAR underlines learning life lessons the hard way in her new single “Fool,” out today, October 19 across digital platforms, stream it HERE. Born and raised in San Bernardino, CA, CHLOE embraces her Indigenous and Persian heritage to amplify her unique sound along with inspiration from music idols ranging from icons such as Janis Joplin, Amy Winehouse and Kurt Cobain to modern-day artists including Jessie Rayes, Billie Eilish, and Willow. CHLOE has aligned with producer Kevin Thrasher (Gwen Stefani, Blink 182, Machine Gun Kelly) on her upcoming as-yet-untitled debut EP due in early 2024 which will include “Fool” among two previously released singles and additional new tracks. A cinematic music video for “Fool” is set to be released on Thursday, November 2.

“I wrote this song while I was in a place where I thought every decision I was making was foolish. Foolish, because I wasn’t given any instruction manual on how to move through life,” says CHLOE. “I didn’t have any proper examples set when it came to intimate relationships, friendships, or self-love which kinda just set me up for failure.”

On recording her new EP with Kevin Thrasher, CHLOE adds: “Working with Thrasher was a musical awakening because I finally found someone who understood me musically. He was able to really push me to the next level as an artist and I am so grateful for that. His process is so admirable. Being able to watch how he works puts a lot into perspective when it comes to production. Also, it was just so much fun being in the studio with him!”

CHLOE released her debut single “Element” in January and soon followed it up with “Straight Girls” in March which garnered over 64K YouTube views. “Straight Girls” was praised by Earmilk for exploring her sexuality with “honest and empowering production” and its “lush electro-pop vocal lines laid over catchy instrumentals framed by trap-infused beats” while also hailing CHLOE as “an act to watch out for.”

“Thank you so much to everyone who has listened and is listening to this song and a huge thank you to everyone behind the scenes helping it climb the charts and reach new audiences,” states ASKING ALEXANDRIA lead guitarist BEN BRUCE. “It’s exciting reaching new goals and it wouldn’t be possible without our amazing team and our incredible fans. Thank you all so much.”

WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE? was produced and mixed by Matt Good (Hollywood Undead, From First To Last), and mastered by Howie Weinberg (Deftones, Metallica) and Will Borza. The album is a culmination of the band’s career, melding their flagship sound with experimental electronics while its lyrics cover the band’s trademark themes of disenchantment, loss, anxiety, and dejection. WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE? is available now on CD, cassette, vinyl and digital download at https://askingalexandria.ffm.to/wdwgfh.

“Brit metal heroes Asking Alexandria dive into their deep bag of influences for an accomplished and gripping eighth studio offering … veering from blast furnace metalcore to surprisingly deft melodic arrangements with apparent ease.”
Kerrang! (8/22)

A heady cocktail of energy, anthems, stomps, choruses, riffs, chugs, electro-pulses, great dynamics… ‘Where Do We Go From Here?’ feels like a band all in the zone and up for re-planting their flag. And this isn’t a free-for-all, the overall tone across the album is emphatic, vibrant contemporary rock, but with a little more shaking it up than for a little while.

ASKING ALEXANDRIA recently wrapped a co-headlining tour across the U.S. with Better Noise Music labelmates THE HU which saw the band perform at several major rock festivals including Rocklahoma, Louder than Life and Blue Ridge Rock Festival. KNAC praised their performance stating: “Asking Alexandria hit the stage will all of the excitement and raw energy that their fans have come to expect. Touring in support of their new album ‘Where Do We Go From Here?’ the setlist included new songs as well as some of their older and heavier favorites, giving everyone something to savor. As he (Worsnop) transitioned from melodies to screams, his voice remained flawless.”
