New Tracks Roundup 22/05/20

Hello everyone and welcome back! It’s time for another week of the best new tracks that have recently been released, all in good order of epicness. I’ve tried to make sure that none of these overlap with the Music Videos Roundup post which should have gone live in addition to this post as well so when you’re done be sure to head over to have a read of that!

Let’s get into the new tunes this week starting off with Volumes.

After teasing the release of this track during Fearless Records ‘Fearless At Home’ live stream, they’ve relaxed ‘Pixelate’ which has plenty of headbands for you to do at home in social distancing measures.

Seconds up on this week’s new tracklist is Remo Drive with a new cut off their upcoming record. ‘Ode To joy 2’.

Erik Paulson (vocals) has said the following on the upcoming release:

“The lyrics were inspired by the excess I perceived around me as I transitioned from being a college student into touring full time. Most people who’ve done either can confirm that many social interactions are built around having a drink or smoking weed. Once the honeymoon period of exploration was over for me, I became frustrated with the omnipresence of drugs and alcohol and wanted to write about it… Oh what fun it is laughing at nothing, by this age we all have it down.. When I wrote the final version of the lyrics, I tried to connect with how I think when I’m drunk. I always feel as though I’m loving and hating every second of it. This song captures that same ambivalence.”

 

Moving onto Northlane now as details have emerged on their deluxe edition to their 2019 record, ‘Alien’.

With the tracks being released in instrumental forms, the release also features a new track from the album sessions, which is titled as ‘Enemy Of The Night’.

Marcus Bridge (vocals) has said:

“Enemy Of The Night was the last song to be completed and is personally my favourite song from the Alien sessions.

It has a similar, storytelling style to Freefall as it recounts memories and experiences from my childhood of my father falling deeper into addiction and the desperate things people will do to satisfy those needs. Despite his best efforts, he was never able to beat his demons.

This song is the missing piece to the Alien puzzle and I can’t wait for everyone to hear it.” 

 

Second to last on this weeks list is  From Inside. Since the Covid-19 pandemic started forcing everyone indoors and into social distancing measures, the bands have been giving their output on the track addressing the topic.

Check out ‘Isolation’ below.

 

And lastly, on this weeks list, we have Britains finest in Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes. They’ve shared their first material since the release of their previous full-length release, ‘End Of Suffering’.

The final track of the week is ‘Bleed’.

Simon Mora Parts Ways With From Inside

More departures on the news today as the Liverpool Alternative metal band From Inside have announced they’ve parted ways with their vocalist and founding member, Simon Mora.

The news was confirmed by the band in a statement via their Facebook page.

You can read the full statement below.

 

“We play Leeds, Leicester, and London this weekend. Don’t miss these shows as they round off an end of an era for From Inside…

We have parted with Simon as our vocalist due to personal reasons. We want to thank Simon from the bottom of our hearts for his contribution for the past couple years, it has been a fun ride with him and his presence will be truly missed.

This sadly closes a chapter of the band, however it also means we will be opening a new chapter right away! Our friend Bradley will be filling in for the shows next week which will be your last chance to see a lot of our songs live as new music is set to drop really soon!

As ever, thank you to everyone for your continued support.

– From Inside”

 

In addition to this, Mora has also issued a statement of his own via Instagram which is available to read below.

END OF AN ERA So after a lot of deliberation, heated debates & sleepless nights, I’ve officially stepped down as the front man of @frominsideuk I’ve had an absolute blast these past few years, touring up and down the country, seeing/hearing myself on TV & radio, sharing the stage with bands I grew up listening too, seeing the sights and making incredible memories that I’ll cherish forever. This decision was not easy to make at all, but there’s been a series of events in my life that have put me in a situation that I need to re-evaluate everything and focus on making a better future for myself. With that in mind I can’t give my all to the band anymore without holding them back, and this was starting to cause a rift between me and the other lads, so before thing got so sour we’d end up loosing touch, we’ve all agreed this is the best move for all parties concerned. It’s sad to call it a day, but there will be a new exciting direction for From Inside for the old fans to get excited over and though I don’t think I’ll be starting a new band myself, I’ll always make music no matter what so who knows I might make some singles in the future for the fun of it. Thank you to every single person who has ever supported us, listened to our songs, bought T-shirt’s, came to shows, took pictures or shared the stage with us. Extra shout out to the people I’ve tagged 👊🏼 It’s been one hell of a ride, good luck boys and I’ll see you in the other side. Mora x
