ARTIST: Ahbril
TRACK: Nothing to Hide
Ahbril’s ‘Nothing to Hide’ is a super fuzzy, mixture of modern alternative rock with hard rock banger, and a sharp as a razor critique on the social media culture!

ARTIST: ASHRR

LA trio ASHRR’s ‘Bad Reasons’ is a stylish alt pop treat about the questionable decisions that live in the gray area between right and wrong…when you know better.

ARTIST: HAZMAT
TRACK: STAY AWAY
HAZMAT is a promising post-grunge British trio, and their 2nd single ‘STAY AWAY’, released on Anvil Records, is an absolute must for fans of early-era Foo Fighters, Alice in Chains and 90s alternative rock. Powerful, guitar-driven and super addictive!

ARTIST: Art d’Ecco
TRACK: Only Ones
33% glam rock+33% art rock + 33% alternative rock + 1% impeccable style = Art d’Ecco… After the brief math session, we simply cannot hide our enthusiasm of Art d’Ecco’s latest treasure, “an unapologetic ode to the audacity and playful cynicism of growing up..”.

ARTIST: Post Club Casino
TRACK: Bored of Myself
Paul & Leo come from Germany, and they are behind Post Club Casino… Their diy ethos (Songwriting, production, mix, master, video, photos… all by those dudes!) is 100% rewarded with their stunning, alternative rock single ‘Bored of Myself’… An upbeat, alt rock treat with a pop punk heart and a lot of playfulness!

ARTIST: The Brothers Handley
TRACK: I’m Surrounded
What we love most about The Brothers Handley’s ‘I’m Surrounded’, is the passion this song unleashes, mainly obtained by the excellent vocal performance and the straight to the heart melody. Spotless guitar work as well!
