Dual Variant unveils the big new single, "Against All Odds"

Coming out of the scene in London, ON is Dual Variant, and the noisy duo have dropped a corker of a track following a big 2025 that saw them burst onto the scene with a duo of singles. a bass-heavy, drum-driven rock anthem that channels lots of intensity. The first track of 2026 is a big statement; chunky basslines meet cascading drums, and I'm getting a big reminder of the sounds of Royal Blood here. Easy to compare, perhaps, but they honestly do sound like the Canadian variant of the Brighton rockers. I did love the vocal effects that adorn the track, with some glicthing effects and sky-high moments that'll have you wanting to learn the lyrics so you can shout it proudly in your car. If last year was their breakout year, this year has all the hallmarks to get them into the heads of every Canadian rocker, and hopefully further afield too. Dual Variant proves that new rock duos are still exciting and utterly loud. Want us to hear your music? Click here to submit your musi...

Savannah Gardner delivers her stunning new single, "This Pain is Love"

London-based Savannah Gardner last week revealed her acoustic gem of a song, "This Pain is Love". If there is one thing that got us hooked, it was the intro, so serene and welcoming with a delightful folk-driven guitar and crisp percussion. ... a serene, folk-tinged acoustic gem. As the track progresses, it becomes fuller, with the chorus especially sounding like Gardner is an artist that's about to emerge. I really liked that Dire Straits-sounding guitar towards the end of the chorus too, a bit of a tangent, but it ticked a big box for me. The nostalgic tone that surrounds the track really sets it apart from other acoustic-driven tracks as of late, with this offering being one that sounds both intimate and yet atmospheric. She's an artist that you need to keep an eye on. Want us to hear your music? Click here to submit your music directly to us and many more like-minded curators, bloggers and influencers.

Bottlemoth drops their huge new stadium-ready track, "Suki"

Hailing from Chippenham is Bottlemoth, and the five-piece channel 90s and early 2000s guitar energy, transforming it into a rich soundscape that feels both cinematic and intimate. ... a soaring indie anthem that swings from intimate ballad to stadium-ready belter in minutes, powered by swirling guitars and chant-along hooks. The latest offering from the quintet is called "Suki", and it's a huge track that goes from stadium-belter to a laid-back ballad and right back to the stadium-filler within the space of a minute. It really reminds me a lot of the best Coldplay and Biffy Clyro songs, tender in the right places but with a chorus that can pack a punch with lyrics that yearn to be chanted back. There are plenty of stunning vocal hooks in this, all the while with a swirling guitar dominating proceedings; it just feels like a track that needs to be a closing song for a packed-out venue. The driving indie-pop sound is stunning, and we can't wait to hear more from the ...

Fake Plastic share the retro new tune, "Don't Go To Work"

Hamburg's own Fake Plastic have recently shared their stunning indie-rock cut, "Don't Go to Work", and right from the get-go on the first play it sounded like a classic rock tune with the blend of 90s and jangly guitar sounds. ... a retro-tinged indie-rock cut packed with jangly '90s guitars, raw grit and swagger. It's got an intro that's over a minute long, offering you plenty of time to sink into the sound they've got. The song is also the first slice of music from the band since their album came out in February of 2025, and if the new batch of tunes sound like this, then we may have yet another album from an emerging band to look forward to. It's got a retro feel to it, with raw grit and edgy vocals that are filled with confidence. So if you love your 90s-tinted rock tunes, then be sure to check out this sublime new offering from one of Hamburg's rising bands. Want us to hear your music?

The Origins of Indie Rock Music: From Underground Roots to Global Stages

Indie rock music is one of the most beloved and influential genres in modern music. Known for its DIY ethos, raw authenticity, and refusal to conform to mainstream industry norms, indie rock has evolved from underground beginnings into a global movement. But where did indie rock come from, and how did it grow into the genre we know today? What Does “Indie Rock” Mean? The term “indie” originally stood for independent . In the late 1970s and early 1980s, bands that weren’t signed to major record labels released their music through smaller independent labels . Over time, the word “indie” became less about the business model and more about the sound and attitude —raw, experimental, and often outside the mainstream. The 1970s: Punk and Post-Punk Influence Indie rock’s origins are deeply tied to the punk rock explosion of the mid-1970s. Bands like The Sex Pistols and The Clash proved that music didn’t need polished production or major backing to make an impact. Out of punk came post-punk ...

Hey Again showcases their talent with new single, "Easy to Break"

Back with just their third-ever single is Hey Again, and the new offering from the Brooklyn-based band is a wonderful slice of NY-state-sounding indie rock. ... a razor-sharp blast of NY-style indie rock. Laced with The Strokes swagger, Interpol's cool, danceable grit, and breakout energy. Yes, the reference is that specific, as I can hear influences from the likes of Interpol, Vampire Weekend and especially The Strokes on this one, with the sharp guitar tone being one of the first things we latched onto. There are obviously some gritty moments, with scorched guitars working in tandem with some danceable grooves that'll get you bopping along in no time. It's tight, concise and full of life; in short, this is a perfect intro to a band that sounds like they can break out of the scene in New York state and be big nationally. Want us to hear your music?

Gravité Fresq reveals the bold new single, "Reality Is Premium"

Released earlier on today is Dublin-based Gravité Fresq's new single, and my goodness, it's a sharp electro-rock tune that'll have you wanting more. ... a high-octane electro-rock anthem with some New Order-style bass mixed with shout-along energy. The sleek song sounds to me like one of those Eurovision epics with a stunning backdrop. The song is high-octane and is filled with vocals that you just want to shout out at the top of your lungs. To me it has a thick bassline akin to that of New Order, but with the polished tones of acts that took the 1990s by storm. The production on "Reality Is Premium" is top tier too, it really brings all of those hidden elements to life, and as the track started to draw to a close, I decided to delve into their older tracks - and if you do, you won't be disappointed.

Jared Bond switched-up his sound on new offering, "AlgoRhYtHm"

Jared Bond is back with a smooth and somewhat psychedelic sound with his new track, "AloRhYtHm". The new cut from the Kansas City-based artist is a great slice of what to expect from him moving forward. ... a funky, emotionally charged trip that feels experimental yet irresistibly crowd-pleasing. The single is laced with plenty of funky guitar hooks, something much like the sound in Arctic Monkeys' "Humbug" to more fluid psych sounds that Tame Impala is known for. Vocally, I'd have to compare it to the likes of Kevin Parker; it's dynamic and filled with emotions at every second. The track itself is very intricate, with a kaleidoscope of sounds all mingling with one another like a sexy instrumental jamboree. It's an experimental track indeed, but it doesn't stray too far away from sounds that Jared knows will go down a treat for the masses. Polished off to perfection, this is a real treat for the ears no matter what your genre of preference. Wa...

Deja Dead pushes alt-rock into cinematic territory with "Snapshots"

Coming out of a rather strong scene in New York is Deja Dead, and they are not hanging about with their expansive new single. "Snapshots" sounds like an organ has been given an exorcism; it's huge and unapologetically everywhere. ... a genre-blurring alt-rock epic with exorcised organ riffs, 90s rap beats, and a colossal final crescendo. Once the intro passes, you get some chatter on the song before it drops into a massive 90s rap beat mixed in with some dynamic alt-rock licks of guitar and heavy bass. You really have to give it to Deja Dead for blending in several genres into one song and making it sound so cohesive, not alienating any new listeners, it seems, but rather gripping their attention from the get-go. Written during personal upheaval, the track traces chaos to clarity, and the spoken-word moments really hit home as it gave me big nostalgic vibes - yes, I'm older than I think. Just be sure to turn it up in the final third, as it's the most unexpected cr...

Tony Frissore releases the genre-blurring new track, "Island Lantern Festival"

Cleveland producer Tony Frissore is back with his new offering, "Island Lantern Festival", the second of the year, following on from the impressive cut, "Four Walls". ... a genre-blurring reggae-ska groove bursting with vibrant guitars, thick bass, and adventurous, feel-good energy. The new track from the Cleveland artist reminds me a lot of Grolliaz in places, with a delightfully vibrant and bouncy lick fo guitar, almost offering up some ska flavours to proceedings. The fact that Tony can pull off several major genres being blended all into one track is nothing short of stunning. The Ska-come-Reggae guitar lick for me is amazing; paired off with some panpipes and a thick bass, it really opens up your senses and encourages you to delve into the track headfirst. If you've not dabbled much out of your comfort zone as of late, make this the track to do it with; it's a celebration of sounds that are sure to get you invested. Want us to hear your music?
