When all this fades away
Where do we go
Somewhere spiritual
Dimensions and beings
Outer body feelings taking hold
Home is the only motive
How to get back to her
Tectonic shifts
Not enough oxygen
It's hard to breathe in here
There's a hallway and lights and open door
And I hear voices and they call me forward

We’re so close to kamikaze
Let's just kill ourselves
Create mass destruction
To medicated to function

Over the limit
Over
Na Na Na
Over the limit
Over

The transcendental law
The unwritten law
Something spiritual
Connection to beings
Devoid of reason
It’s cosmic
It’s written on the wall
Home is the only motive
How to get back to her
Tectonic shifts
Not enough oxygen
It's hard to breathe in here
And there is a reason that we got this close
Snap back but we still hear ghosts

We’re so close to kamikaze
Let's just kill ourselves
Create mass destruction
To medicated to function

Over the limit
Over
Na Na Na
Over the limit
Over

Needful Things

World Ends Everyone Dies (feat. Paul Leary)

Moving Into Tucson is basically the side effect of the COVID epidemic. Why, you will ask. Well for the simple reason that the band was formed during the pandemic. Can you call Moving Into Tucson a band? Well, yes as in, it's a band, with a singer, guitarist, bassist, drummer etc. But also no because it's not a band as usual. Band members do not come from the same city or even country, but from different parts of the world. When the world was in lock-down and many were forced to stay at home, there wasn't much left for musicians to do other than work from home. But, how? And better, with whom? Like for many, Zoom video brought a solution. Fortunately, we live in an advanced digital world and a lot is possible without necessarily having to be somewhere. Only someone who arranges it. This is where the label TCBYML, the label of the various artists in the band Moving Into Tucson, stepped in.  

Result, twenty songs composed over a period of 18 months. These have now been brought together, mixed, mastered and provided with artwork. In 2023, five of them will be released as singles and together with eight more songs will form the album "Distraction" that will see the light on November 24 of this year. A great initiative that may be followed up in 2024. Who's to say.  

Moving Into Tucson's music is comparable to that of the early 90's. The sound that all who participated could very much agree on. Moving Into Tucson is therefore for fans of: REM, Lemonheads, Sugar, The Posies, Buffalo Tom, Teenage Fanclub and the Counting Crows but also reminiscent to bands as U2 or The Police. Recognizable indie pop rock, sometimes dark, sometimes mysterious, or vague, but with depth in the music and certainly in the lyrics.

Moving Into Tucson - Without A Warning

HALF CAB has its roots in punk and hardcore music. With their new songs the band is ready to engage a wider audience without losing their underground ethos. The result is music that is said to have "the energy of punk and the catchiness of pop". 

HALF CAB coming from The Hague, Netherlands is set to release their new EP in May 2024. Pete Maher, UK’s No1 independent mastering engineer gives the songs the power they deserve. Upfront, three songs from the EP will be released as singles. 

First single Rearview is about looking back on things in life. “It all looks simple in the rearview” is the recurring phrase in the song, and somewhat of a summary idea of the EP. Don't worry too much about the past, but focus on the future, no matter how dark and hopeless it may seem.

Sun Is Out Set Course for "Next Stop" – A High-Energy Evolution of Pop-Punk Power

San Diego’s own Sun Is Out, fresh off the widespread acclaim of their debut album The Waves Of Time, are gearing up to deliver their next exhilarating chapter: the 5-track EP, Next Stop. If The Waves Of Time was the definitive introduction to their sun-drenched, rebellious spirit, Next Stop is the turbo-charged follow-up, showcasing a band confident, dynamic, and pushing their signature sound to new heights.

From the very first note, Next Stop throws listeners into a vibrant world of crunchy guitars, pounding rhythms, and hooks that stick like superglue. The EP kicks off with a bang, setting the tone with an undeniable, fist-in-the-air pop-punk anthem "Real Again" that immediately reminds you why Sun Is Out are the real deal – loud, catchy, and brimming with the energy of a sweaty basement show in the height of summer. This isn't just a return; it's a statement.

As the journey continues, Sun Is Out proves they’re not content to rest on their laurels. Tracks like "Wrong Side Of Right" catapult the band into an entirely new sonic universe, blending blazing melodic indie rock with their pop-punk core. It's an anthem that hits hard, both sonically and lyrically, exploring the relatable struggle of trying to fit into a new scene without losing yourself – a hopeless mission, perhaps, but one that fuels some of their most emotionally charged work to date. Expect massive hooks, raw emotion, and an unshakeable energy that demands a spot on every playlist that matters.

The EP further ignites with "Stuck On You," a blast of alt-skate rock at its finest. Screaming guitars, a relentless bassline, and punchy drums lay the foundation for a hook you’ll be shouting back before you even realize it. Lyrically, it’s a magnetic exploration of those fleeting yet unforgettable connections, proving once again why Sun Is Out are rapidly rising from San Diego’s sun-soaked scene to playlists and airwaves worldwide, embodying youth, freedom, and rebellion turned all the way up.

"Late Again" keeps the fire burning, a fast, full-throttle pop-punk banger that feels like the soundtrack to running late for everything that matters. Big guitars, a pulsing bassline, drums that refuse to sit still, and shout-along vocals seal the deal. It’s raw, it’s loud, and it's everything you want from a modern pop-punk anthem – polished just enough to shine, but gritty enough to hit you right in the chest, proving Sun Is Out are far more than a nostalgic throwback; they are the restless, sun-soaked sound of now.

Rounding out the EP is the latest single, "Runaway Radio" – a quintessential Sun Is Out pop-punk single that consolidates everything fans have come to love about the band. This EP is a testament to their relentless drive, capturing the essence of youth, freedom, and rebellion—fueled by sun, sea, and palm trees. Having already landed on major Apple Music playlists globally and graced radio stations in Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, the UK, and the USA, Sun Is Out's Next Stop is poised to solidify their status as a force to be reckoned with. Get ready for a high-energy ride through emotion, reflection, and the electric pulse of growing up free, loud, and unapologetic.
