Slung entranced us with their recent Come Apart. The songs has a classic alternative grunge essence in tandem with the genres softer side. In that way it resonates with a treasure trove of lights songs known to Soundgarden or Alice In Chains. Slung updates that influence courtesy of their singers rare timbre within this style. It works elegantly. We love it.

Rum Jungle caught our attention with their new release Don’t Be A Stranger. The catchy dynamic indie rock hit has elements that resonate with the recent Turnstile breakthrough. It’s a testament to the sings delivery and he stylistic jive. It’s more Brit Pop than hardcore, with clever riffs that bear a semblance to Arctic Monkeys and that associative period. Their style is meant to be enjoyed in concert, a details they allude to within the songs revelatory music video. It’s good stuff!

The Americana Punk soul of CJ Stanton & The Powerful Stuff shines on their new single While I’m Still Here. A relentless pounding metaphorically knocks the fear out of your bones on this spiritual reclamation. It’s the resolution of knowing better and moving through harsh realties in search of the bigger picture. The sentiment that “it’s not that deep” wrapped up in an indie alt country tirade fit to bring a crowd to a frenzy. Go hard or don’t go at all.
