As It Is unveil new track, “Live, Laugh, Love, Los Angeles”

As It Is have released a new track called “Live, Laugh, Love, Los Angeles,” which can be streamed below. The track appears on their self-titled album, which arrives on July 17. On the new track, the band shares:

“We weren’t planning on releasing another single before the album. In fact, this song wasn’t even on the original tracklisting. But, during album tracking in January 2026, the news and our social fees were flooded by the ICE raids across the USA. Multiple murders by ICE agents in Patty’s home state of Minnesota and almost one mass shooting per day. We watched the USA descend into violence whilst the ‘Rich Televangelist’ at the top stoked the fires further. The song was about Patty’s relationship with America and being an American in the current political climate, but with that added real world context it suddenly became even more urgent and essential, not only to the album but to the album campaign. As tensions continue to rise and the global resurgence of the far right continues, we felt that this song, its message and the video deserved their moment to be seen, heard and felt. Fuck Fascism.”

Honey Revenge share new track, “Butterfly Effect”

Honey Revenge have released a new single called “Butterfly Effect,” which can be streamed below. The track appears on their forthcoming album, Loving and Losing, which debuts on September 18 via Thriller Records. On the new track, vocalist Devin Papadol says:

“The Butterfly Effect is a concept where small, seemingly insignificant initial changes in events can lead to drastic and unpredictable consequences in the grand scheme of things. There’s an illusion that we as human beings have a choice in our own fate. Try as we might to be in control of every little thing in our lives, sometimes the universe has other plans in mind. This concept is explored in our new single ‘Butterfly Effect’. It can be comforting in tough times to lean into the idea that our destiny is somewhat predetermined. It makes transitional periods easier to power through. This song and its message embody the themes we’re looking forward to elaborating on and sharing on our sophomore album, ‘Loving and Losing’ out September 18th!”

Boston Manor announce ‘Be Nothing’ 10-year anniversary tour

Rachael Dowd — Tue, 26 May 2026 15:42:57 +0000

Boston Manor are embarking on a 10-year anniversary tour for their album, Be Nothing, which they are also re-releasing. Ticket information can be found here. The Be Nothing. 10 Year Anniversary Edition will arrive on August 14 via Pure Noise Records. The album features some reworkings of the songs, including an acoustic rendition of “Lead Feet,” which can be streamed below.

Speaking on what this anniversary, bassist Dan Cunniff has shared:

“For me; writing and recording Be Nothing. was one of the most exciting things we had done at that time. Doing the “band thing” for many years previous to Boston Manor, I’d always wanted to be involved in writing a full length record but never had the opportunity to do it properly. So by the time the opportunity came round, I felt like we were all hyper focused on what we wanted to achieve and also keeping in mind what this record would sound like in 10 years from that point. That being said; I think we achieved our goals with Be Nothing. because I believe this record holds up even today 10 years on. The record did more than we thought it would do for us. It opened up so many doors, especially in the touring world. Having the opportunity to travel all around the world because of one record is pretty insane!

“Off the back of the release we announced Boston Manor’s first ever UK/EU headline tour (which we were shi**ing ourselves over btw) and to our amazement the shows all sold out. And I feel like at that point it was only the beginning for our band. be nothing. gave us the confidence that we can be a “real” band after all.”

Stand Atlantic have released a new single called “Velcro,” which can be streamed below. Vocalist Bonnie Fraser shares on the new single: “I’ve spent 10 years avoiding love songs and writing only about what ended in heartbreak. On ‘Velcro’, that curse is finally broken. It’s the most honest thing I’ve written in a long time – after a really intense period of writer’s block, so recording it live, raw and unfiltered felt like the only way to do it. The curse is officially broken, the gates are open, our lovergirl era is on, and ‘Velcro’ says you’re welcome.”
