Keep scrolling to find out about this month's wrap-up playlist for the previous month.
1) The Ones You Forgot - Desensitized
Genre: Pop punk, emo rock
Why I Picked This: It's a great song. Personally for me, it has that nostalgic pop-punk sound, one that reminds me of 2013, of listening to bands like Tonight Alive and You Me At Six. It reminds me of being young and feeling like nobody knew what I was going through, you know, typical teenage angst. I love it.
2) Bad Waitress - Pre Period-Post Blues
Genre: Punk
Why I Picked This: I love Bad Waitress' music. This track is their first release since their single "That Sedative" in 2020. It's angry and loud, it's my favorite style of punk music.
3) Faith & Majesty - Premise
Genre: Indie rock
Why I Picked This: "Premise" is a beautiful song. Their voices, the instrumental, the lyrics - it's all so beautiful. It's a bit sad, a bit heartbreaking, and absolutely worth listening to.
4) boys cruise - Room For Reason
Genre: Indie Rock
Why I Picked This: I like it because it's honest, it's real. It's almost like social anxiety in a song.
5) Mile End - Burn The Wise
Genre: Punk
Why I Picked This: Who doesn't love an angry punk song? It's so good. Some of the best punk music right now comes from Canada, and Mile End are one of the many great examples of that.
6) Sterling Press - Very Fun Times
Genre: Indie Punk
Why I Picked This: It's catchy and it's got a good, vibrant guitar sound in it. It's got a sound that's like "driving down the highway with the windows down," and I just love it so much.
7) Dead Poet Society - .getawayfortheweekend.
Genre: Rock
Why I Picked This: Dead Poet Society make songs that are strong, so intense, that I'm often left speechless, and ".getawayfortheweekend." is no different. I love this song, I love this band, and I cannot wait for their album -!- that's dropping later this week.
8) Meet Me @ The Altar - Garden (Acoustic)
Genre: Pop punk
Why I Picked This: Meet Me @ The Altar are amazing, "Garden" was already one of my favorite songs, and the acoustic version of it made me love it even more. It's a beautiful, warm song and this version of it is lovely.
9) ZIG MENTALITY - What Weighs on You
Genre: Stoner rock
Why I Picked This: I've been waiting for ZIG MENTALITY to release something slow, after hearing their acoustic set on Youtube, and this definitely didn't disappoint. It's a great song, it's loud and comforting in the way that I find Nirvana's Live At Reading record to be - the bass is strong and it has the almost same level of fuzz. I really love this track.
10) Dirty Honey - Last Child
Genre: Hard Rock
Why I Picked This: To be honest, I had no idea that this track was a cover. I'm unfortunately unfamiliar with Aerosmith - I don't know everything about rock n' roll yet, but I'm trying - and having now heard the original, I can confidently say that Dirty Honey definitely do Aerosmith justice. It's a fantastic cover, Dirty Honey have that classic rock n' roll sound down perfectly.
