The world can be a scary place. Wars have been going on since the beginning of time, and with the speed of the internet bringing information to our fingertips in seconds, it has become nearly impossible to block out all of the negativity in our lives. As a parent of three beautiful children, I have tried my best to shelter them from anything that could cause them any type of harm. With politicians in some states complicating matters by trying to re-write, or re-frame historical events in the way they see fit, it seems like a sense of urgency has been created to keep these people in check. Anti-Flag have returned at the perfect time with their 13th studio album, with the aptly titled Lies They Tell Our Children. The music that comes through the speakers sounds as passionate as these punk rockers have ever been, and seven out of the eleven songs found on the LP feature an outside collaborator. These contributions by their friends in other bands never seem out of place, and instead bring more voices into the “fight of our lives.”

Today is a great day to share the latest single and video from singer-songwriter Angel Abaya called “Over / On / Under.” The eclectic song comes from her debut album, The Bubble, which will be out everywhere music is sold on May 5th via Earth Libraries. Abaya shared this about the new single, “This song puts you in a chaotic mood. You’re either dodging lightning bolts or breaking shit and robbing a rich guy’s house.” If you’re ready to embrace the chaos, Angel Abaya is the right artist for today.

Today I’m thrilled to bring everyone a great new single from indie folk band, Battleviews, called “All Of My Days.” The track comes from their debut LP All Of My Days, that will be released everywhere music is sold on January 20th through their own Bright & Barrow Records label. Battleviews came together in winter 2020, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Married since 2014, the duo never found time to write music together amidst the chaos of work and parenting their two young kids. But during two years of national lockdown, Battleviews became an outlet for Ryan and Natalie: a place where they could retreat after the day’s last Zoom meeting was over, online school was finished, and the kids were asleep; a place that they could call their own and had total freedom to explore and create. When speaking on the album, Ryan said, “All of My Days is a snapshot of our lives during an unprecedented time. We wanted the record’s themes to be relatable and offer a little light to each listener. But if nothing else people find it fun to sing along to, that’s enough for us.” If you’re enjoying the direction Battleviews went on this latest single, please consider purchasing their music here.
