Pretty Matty playfully synthesizes pop and punk in new single “You’re Not There”
Pretty Matty playfully synthesizes pop and punk in new single “You’re Not There”

Toronto-based Pretty Matty’s music can best be identified as pop punk. But, as their latest single “You’re Not There” proves, it’s the punk which comes first for the band. And if punk lays the foundation of this musical house, then its walls are made with pop-bounce and its roof is a shelling of modern rock.

It’s only fitting that Kevin’s brand of Screamers vs. La Bouche weirdness would end up sound-tracking the apocalypse. On their latest single “Sun Moon Urgent Care,” the Los Angeles quartet’s sinister vibes and dystopic tones take a proggier direction as their penchant for unease builds towards an inescapable sensation of impending multiversal cosmic doom.

Janelane’s “14 Days” is a concise slice of indie rock suited for some personal reflection.
Janelane’s “14 Days” is a concise slice of indie rock suited for some personal reflection.

Janelane’s recent single, “14 Days,” evokes a variety of feelings about love. Or, perhaps, the lack thereof. The ambiguity of its message, namely the implications of “finding bronze” when you believe you “struck gold” in a partner, prompts the listener to question this significance themselves. Or, if not, it still gives them a killer track to listen to.
