Cape Crush wave from the shore of life choices with the soaring ‘Place Memory’

In Cape Crush’s new single ‘Place Memory,’ the title track to the Massachusetts power-emo band’s forthcoming album due out this spring, vocalist and guitarist Ali Lipman reflects back on a peaceful day spent with her sister. Together, the two fix up their house, paint it a vibrant shade of blue, and discuss…

🎧 Track of the Week 🎧 Our Track of the Week is 'H 🎧 Track of the Week 🎧Our Track of the Week is 'Hell Ride', the gritty new single from rising pop artist @soniasteinmusic. The track is taken from her upcoming new EP, set for release on March 20. Catchy from the first listen, 'Hell Ride' balances crystal-clear vocals with a soaring chorus and punchy melodies - making for a track that is impossible not to replay. The track nods to the slick, melodic sensibilities of HAIM and the hook heavy sparkle of The Aces, radiating a confidence that makes you feel like you can take on the world. Shimmering guitars and crisp production set the tone from the get-go, layered beneath Sonia's glittering vocals, as she sings about the intoxicating feeling of an all encompassing, gut-wrenching love: "what you do to me should be criminal / cause life without you is one bad hell ride."Speaking on the meaning behind the single, Sonia said: "'Hell Ride' is a song that leans into the obsessive, all consuming nature of being devoted to someone past the point of it feeling healthy or normal but embracing it anyway. Thematically it feels like the big sister of 'Insatiable', but even more unhinged and self indulgent. I had such a fun time fully letting this character take over for this song, something I think younger me was always a little indignant about even though it was younger me who felt the most of this kind of emotion. At the time it didn't feel like something I should be shouting/singing about." #newmusic #trackoftheweek #songoftheweek #musicblog ##musicblogger

🎧 Track of the Week 🎧 Our Track of the Week is 'I 🎧 Track of the Week 🎧Our Track of the Week is 'ILLEGAL ALIENS', the explosive new protest single from @delilahbonofficial. The song was written in retaliation to the human rights atrocities happening in the US right now. Delilah shares, "Seeing the brutality towards immigrants - many of which have lived and worked in the US their whole lives - imprisoned in these inhumane camps breaks my heart. There's thousands of kids alone in those camps, families are searching for their loved ones. I wrote this song a year ago and after cancelling my US tour it felt like a moment to finally release it. This song is about activism and protest, pointing the finger at those that divide us and uniting together in our collective rage." With the song already censored and inaccessible to certain regions across the pond, with the audio also being muted on social media, downloads of the track are available. Proceeds will be donated to MIRAC, which is a grassroots charity of volunteers helping immigrant families with groceries and food banks, legal advice, support and protest organisation. #newmusic #trackoftheweek #songoftheweek #musicblog ##musicblogger

🎧 Track of the Week 🎧 Our Track of the Week is ' 🎧 Track of the Week 🎧 Our Track of the Week is 'New York', the striking new single from @marmozets. The song is taken from their upcoming comeback album CO.WAR.DICE, out May 22 via @nettwerkmusic. “CO.WAR.DICE. is an album reflecting on the state of our world and a vow to ourselves to leave this world in a better place," says vocalist Becca Bottomley per the press release. "We may never make a huge impact, but we can only try. Like any story there’s a beginning middle and end and we’ve chosen for a happy ending." Having taken time away from the band to become parents, Becca and Jack Bottomley, Marmozets guitarist, weren't necessarily looking to relaunch their music career when they wrote 'New York' during an impromptu Friday night jam at home in Yorkshire, but inspired by memories of their first trip to America, the New Wave-inspired song became a starting point for their return. "'New York' is an eccentric city, full of eccentric people and that inspires us," says Becca. "We reminisced of our first trip over a bottle of red as we recorded ideas. We met a police officer smoking a cigar outside JFK airport, got in a cab while 'Africa' by Toto blasted out of the radio as we approached Manhattan. We wanted to write something that kind of encapsulated that 70's punk energy while painting a picture of this wild experience we had of playing a show downtown to secure our first record deal." "This was the first time that Sam (McIntyre, bass) and Josh (McIntyre, drums) had left the country," Jack Bottomley recalls in a new interview with NME, referencing his brothers-in-law. "It was really big for us as people and as a band. We were trying to encapsulate that city visually, but also with the sound of it. We wanted it to be CBGB’s punk vibe." #newmusic #trackoftheweek #songoftheweek #musicblog ##musicblogger
