H_ngm_n – Nothing Personal ( Rock / Punk )

H_NGM_N –  Bittersweet Gut-Punch with Latest Single ‘Nothing Personal’

Following the snappy one-two punch of previous singles ‘Reach Out’ and ‘Spotlight’, and the moodier introspection of ‘No Place Like Home’, Brighton-based duo H_NGM_N return with a track that cuts straight to the emotional core. Their latest single, ‘Nothing Personal’, is a gut-punch of conflicting emotion—raw, soaring, and unshakably anthemic.

Built on a foundation of jangly guitars, math-rock intricacies, and the kind of full-bodied melodies that have become their signature, ‘Nothing Personal’ captures the band at their most vulnerable. Leaning into the bittersweet chaos of fractured trust and emotional ambiguity, Childs’ aching vocals simmer with quiet intensity before bursting into a cathartic, shout-it-out chorus.

Shot through with anxiety, doubt, and flickers of hope, the track doesn’t shy away from the messy reality of human connection. It encapsulates the exhaustion of trying to hold on while still protecting yourself—a universal experience rendered in heart-wrenching clarity.

Made for late-night drives and shouted singalongs, ‘Nothing Personal’ showcases exactly what H_NGM_N do best: transforming emotional turmoil into razor-sharp, punchy, and painfully relatable emo-pop anthems.

Offering a cathartic exploration of overthinking, overdrinking, and the relentless process of growing older, their sound is both gritty and tender. Fusing the blistering vulnerability of modern emo with the explosive energy of early-2000s pop-punk, H_NGM_N craft songs that feel both nostalgic and urgent—personal and universal all at once.

With their debut album set for release in Autumn 2025, and an Ireland tour announced for this summer, the band is poised to deliver a much-needed dose of catharsis in a world desperate for connection.

Welcome to the World of Digital Rockstar – The New Single by Experienced?!?

Digital Rockstar is the explosive first single from Experienced?!?’s upcoming album, and it comes with a powerful message for the next generation of musicians.

The lyrics dive deep into the modern-day reality of being an independent artist. Today, making great music is just the beginning.

For the music video, the band went all out, using a 360° green screen to build an epic digital universe. Directed by Nedkov Berkant, the video showcases a visually stunning world where the band battles AI robots, takes down infamous streaming giants, and even soars through futuristic cityscapes in flying cars.

It’s bold, imaginative, and full of attitude — just like the song.

Welcome to the world of Digital Rockstar.

Jesus Chrysler Supercar – Kamikaze ( Metal Pop /Punk )

A Daydream About Hiding Away — and Wanting to Be Found.

Phoenix, AZ – June 24, 2025 — Legendary Arizona alt-rock veterans Jesus Chrysler Supercar are back and louder than ever with “Kamikaze”, a blistering new single that fuses raw power with poetic tragedy. The track delivers a cinematic and unrelenting sonic journey — flipping, twisting, and roaring like a jet engine on its final descent.

Driven by razor-sharp riffs and a thunderous rhythm section, “Kamikaze” dives deep into the haunting legacy of honor-driven sacrifice, told through the eyes of a doomed pilot. Frontman Mitch Steele shares:

“The song has always made me sad. I mean, it’s not a ‘sad’ song, per se — but the Japanese culture places such huge importance on honor. So many of these pilots died for no reason, other than honor. The war was essentially lost by that point. It’s very romantic and tragic.”

Lyrically, “Kamikaze” hits hard:

“Skies are turning red / The sun burns out my eyes / Slip into eternity”

These words capture both the adrenaline and emotional gravity of a mission with no return. As the band shouts “We won’t come back”, the listener is pulled into a visceral, almost spiritual confrontation with legacy, duty, and mortality.

Following the success of their 2024 re-releases and recent singles “Two Sticks (Dynamite)” and “Sludge/Deep Hole”, “Kamikaze” marks a bold new chapter for the band — and sets the stage for their first EP in 25 years.

With the same fire that once lit up stages alongside Deftones, Radiohead, and No Doubt, Jesus Chrysler Supercar isn’t just back — they’re blazing.

Eva Miléna – Conch Shell ( Electro Pop /Acoustic )

“ Eva has a great vocal tone and it really shines in this track “

NMR – Eva’s vocal work here with the melody and harmonies sound really good, the song has a nice arangment, some very well placed guitar parts with a nice reverb really add some space, the production is spot on too, great work !   

Eva Miléna releases – Conch Shell

A Daydream About Hiding Away — and Wanting to Be Found.

Eva Miléna steps into the spotlight with her debut single Conch Shell — a dreamy indie-pop ballad laced with coastal metaphors and quiet longing. At its heart, the track explores the ache of escapism: the impulse to retreat into your inner world, while secretly hoping someone might come along to draw you out.

“I’m waiting for me to save me,” Eva says. “The zilennial take on Don Quixote.”

Built on ethereal synths, layered harmonies, and soft melancholy, Conch Shell marks the first chapter of a fictional universe that will unfold in her upcoming EP. Each track inhabits a different island, blurring the lines between mythology and magical realism. With a background in fiction writing, Eva brings a cinematic and literary quality to her music — threading narrative, metaphor, and myth into every melody.

The song was written just before Eva moved into her current apartment — a dim, oddly shaped space that, fittingly, resembles a shell.

“Turns out I do miss being able to crack open a window. But that’s showbiz.”

It became the perfect hideaway for a self-imposed exile, offering time and space to imagine life unfolding somewhere far away.

Conch Shell is also accompanied by an animated short created in collaboration with visual artist @rosymollet. Set in a sunken shipwreck, it features a lone figure singing into a conch shell — and the shell singing back, echoing her own voice in return.

Jeán et Joie – Dissolution ( Folk / Acoustic )

“ Melodic, harmonic, rhythmic, its all in here folks  “

NMR – The lyrics are wrapped up in some great vocal harmonies on this latest release, nice chord structures and instrumentation.  

Jeán et Joie New release “Dissolution”

Jeán et Joie is the lyrical child of artist and songwriter Grey Jeán, whose music is best described as mournful folk with a hopeful glow. Their songs weave together minimalist instrumentation and poetic, stream-of-consciousness storytelling that invites deep emotional connection.

Themes of celestial wonder, nature, lived experience, and emotional integrity flow through every song—giving listeners both a sense of grounding and uplift.

Grey Jeán was raised in a household surrounded by music. Alongside their three sisters, they grew up immersed in angelic harmonies and polyphonic hymns, drawn from their Catholic upbringing. It was during a difficult adolescence in Mountain Home, Arkansas, that Grey began channeling personal struggles into songwriting—a practice that quickly became a lifeline.

From choir performances to open mic nights and live-streamed concerts during the COVID-19 pandemic, music remained Grey’s constant companion and creative outlet.

How it started

In 2021, Grey joined the San Diego punk blues band, Teeming Dreams, composing and performing original piano pieces. The following year, they debuted Jeán et Joie—a project born from a growing personal repertoire and a desire to explore more intimate and poetic folk sounds.

The project took full shape when Grey and their fiancé Gabrielle Néla teamed up with Ikaika and Dash, the drummer-guitar duo from the LA band Flamango Bay. Together, they built a cohesive sound that honors Grey’s introspective lyrics and folk roots.

Now based in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Jeán et Joie is finding its place once again in the forests and woods where Grey’s musical identity was first discovered.

Upcoming Releases: Bramble EP

Jeán et Joie is currently preparing for the release of their debut EP, Bramble, expected in late 2025. The EP will be introduced through a series of singles, including:

  • Glory Be

  • Fried Rice, MA

  • Soul Sel

  • No Trash Here

  • Dissolution

Each song continues Grey’s tradition of blending poetic depth with stripped-back, organic instrumentation.

Virgin Mary Had One Son

Though not part of the Bramble EP, Jeán et Joie also released a cover of Virgin Mary Had One Son, a traditional holiday song famously performed by Joan Baez at the 1959 Newport Folk Festival.

“Jeán et Joie’s version gives us atmospheric guitar and a delicate style of storytelling. Grey’s vocal simply shines, perfectly suiting its folksy style.”

— York Calling (UK)

Stay Connected

Follow Jeán et Joie as they continue to carve out a space in today’s folk scene—where tenderness, honesty, and hope live side by side in song.
