“Strawberry Moon,” the self-titled track off of Helena Deland’s latest EP brings a certain dream-like quality to her strong line-up of tracks. The calming acoustics paired with her ever so delicate vocal layering makes for the perfect song to drift away in thought to. Her entire new EP is a must listen! – Eva Agabegi
The Struts are a band that keep the glitz and glam side of rock and roll alive and they continue to prove it with “Rockstar.” The riffs are addicting and frontman Luke Spiller’s English accent spills into his singing, which adds flair to the fun. The Struts are now on the list of artists who have iconic tracks titled “Rockstar” to chronicle the lifestyle. (Nickelback and Post Malone are good company in my opinion) – Caitlin McGeehan
House of Harm’s latest single, “Roseglass,” offers listeners the perfect moody synth-driven track for fall nights. With its hauntingly atmospheric soundscapes and pulsating rhythms, the song effortlessly encapsulates the essence of post-punk. With introspection and nostalgia in the air, it’s a song of change and transition, making it a compelling addition to House of Harm’s upcoming “Playground” EP. If you’re a fan of post-punk and artists like Boy Harsher, this is a track to enjoy. – Erika Cutaia
Dirt Buyer’s latest single, “Heartache,” is simple and vulnerable, serving as a poignant documentation of Joe Sutkowski aka Dirt Buyer’s life, filled with descriptive imagery that vividly paints an emotional landscape. Each word in the lyrics pile on, building a powerful crescendo in tandem with the entrance of heavier guitar, allowing listeners to fully immerse themselves in the palpable, growing ache that is the song. – Erika Cutaia
