August 16, 2024 Release Highlights:
Falling in Reverse, Popular Monster (Epitaph):
After seven years, the metalcore band returns with its fifth studio album. They’ve already accrued massive success with the album’s singles, including #1 hit “All My Life” with country rocker Jelly Roll and the 2xplatinum-selling title track.
Charly Bliss, FOREVER (Lucky Number):
With their third studio effort, the indie rockers fell back in love with making music, saying of it in their bio, “This album is head over heels, overflowing with romantic love and friend love and crushes and hurricanes of big feeling.”
The Cle Elum, It’s OK If It Falls Apart (Winston Sounds):
The indie rock duo releases its debut album, which features guest appearances from the likes of Nada Surf’s Matthew Caws and The Smoking Popes’ Josh Caterer.
Dark Tranquillity, Endtime Signals (Century Media):
The band has described their 13th studio effort as their “most diverse album to date,” saying that their recent line-up change “gave us the opportunity to re-evaluate and view what we have built from a new and exciting perspective. This resulted in a focused and intense writing period where we have discovered aspects of our music anew and taken certain elements of it further than before.”
Trench, Between Inverted Worlds (New Damage):
The Canadian hard-rockers release their latest studio effort, which features collaborations with the members of City And Colour, Comeback Kid, Cult Of Luna and Wake.
Yours Truly, Toxic (UNFD):
The rock band’s “boldest and most confident statement to date” according to Rock Sound, singer Mikaila Delgato told the site of the album’s sound, “you can hear the fight in these songs. That desperation comes through in the vocals and the playing, and I’m a different singer now than I was when I wrote and recorded the past records. When we wrote our first album, I was only 18, and I’ve learned a lot more about my voice and what I want to sound like. On these songs, you’re hearing the fight, but you’re also hearing that growth.”
