This unique father and son duo known collectively as "Willis & Son", just released their debut self titled album back at the end of May. The project features Glenn Wiley Willis of October Bird of Death, 2Minute Minor, xRedlinex, and The Blamed alongside his father Mike Willis. Other family members and friends contributed to the recording and recording/production was handled by the very talented Captive Portal Studio. The album is a very low key, laid back collection of songs that serves up a sunny disposition and hopeful yearning. It's like the perfect soundtrack for summer and those nightly campfires set up upon a sandy, beachside locale. There is plenty to enjoy in these simple yet profound songs. Stories about love, hope, understanding, and seeking answers in the dark with a certain youthful exuberance not broken by the daily cynicism that takes hold of our little music scene at times. The joining of two generations through the road weary eyes of two like minded travelers seeking truth in a world gone dark. If you find yourself alone on a Friday night pondering life's many mysteries, looking for a little cheer to brighten your day, then kick on the debut record of Willis & Son and just smile.

Sam's The Hero have just dropped their incredible brand new song titled "In The Absence of Applause" through Small Step Records and it's available through all digital networks. This song is filled with big choruses, loads of those classic pop-punk harmonies the scene has become world renowned for, and some of the most uplifting lyrics I've heard recently. It's really exciting to find a band like Sam's The Hero still carrying the flag of Christian pop punk, proudly presenting honest, hopeful, and outstanding songs in the midst of such profound darkness in our world. These guys are the perfect combination of classic sounds found in groups like Fenix Tx, Home Grown, Blink-182, Autopilot Off, Yellowcard, Olivia The Band, Sick of Change and the lyrical output of individuals and groups like Reese Roper (Five Iron Frenzy/Brave Saint Saturn), Josh Kemble (Dogwood), Ghoti Hook, Hangnail, Slick Shoes, Watashi Wa, early Plankeye etc. Just a plain great summer jam with a deep heart tugging anthem of nostalgia and grace. Highly recommended and a solid 5 out of 5 from Brandon Jones/IVM.

Pop punk powerhouse, Brave Days, have returned with a brand new 6 song EP titled ​"Crisis" and it's out now! Check out the title track below and be sure to these guys a solid listen.

Demon Hunter have released one of their most gut punching, emotionally raw and spiritually connective albums to date. To say it’s a timely release is an understatement. There is just something truly special and remarkable about this album. Maybe it’s the grief connection, something I think many of us in this country and across the world really are feeling in light of the death of an influential young Christian and activist, Charlie Kirk. Not everyone will agree with his words or his approach but what we can agree on was his passion for his Faith and that unwavering commitment to share the gospel no matter the cost.… Continued →

I have some exciting news to share with you all today. A throwback pop-punk band I’ve been following from Hawaii just joined forces with up and coming indie/pop-punk/emo/ska label, Small Step Records. This is definitely a band to keep your eyes and ears on. Small Step Records adds Hawaii-based 4-piece Christian pop punk band, The Caballerials, to the growing roster of independent, faith-inspired artists dedicated to authentic, purpose-filled music. The Caballerials’ style is reminiscent of the classic pop punk of the 2000, laced with nostalgia and lyrics filled with faith and hope; for fans of MxPx, Homegrown, Olivia The Band, The Cootees, and Piebald.… Continued →
