New Singles:

Angels & Airwaves take a more electro-pop approach in their new single “The Wolfpack.”  This is off their new album Dream Walker

The 1975 – “Medicine” (Synth-Rock)

The new single from The 1975 is a lot more laid back and atmospheric than the material from their self-titled. This song was written for Radio 1’s rescore of the movie Drive.

Chvrches – “Dead Air” (Electronic Pop)

Chvrches provides a new pulsating tune for the new Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1. It’s very similar to the Bones Of What You Believe. So if you like Chvrches at all, then you will dig this tune.

Foo Fighters – “Congregation” (Rock)

From their upcoming new album Sonic Highways. The guitar tones are lightly distorted and will remind you of songs like “Long Road To Ruin” “Learn To Fly” and “Big Me.”

We Came As Romans – “I Knew You Were Trouble” (Post-Hardcore)

Post-Hardcore group, We Came As Romans covers Taylor Swift’s I Knew You Were Trouble for Fearless Record’s Punk Goes Pop vol. 6. The group adds heavy chugging guitar, a mix of harsh screams and clean vocals, and they up the tempo of the song. All of this turns the pop tune into a hard rock song.

Tyler Carter & Luke Holland – “Ain’t It Fun” (Rock)

Tyler Carter of Issues and Luke Holand of The Word Alive team up to deliver this cover of Ain’t It Fun by Paramore. The instrumentals are more or less the same. The only notable difference is Luke Holland’s drumming. It can basically be a paramour song feat. Tyler Carter.
