“Hopeless” explores the journey of overcoming heartbreak and embracing newfound freedom. With strong vocal harmonies and a powerful climax, it captures the essence of resilience and self-discovery, serving as a reminder that strength can be found in vulnerability and that healing is possible after heartache.

Hopeless

Willow

Willow (feat. Lucy Rose)

What's going on in this house
How come I keep running into running out
Why can't I see the light on the floor from out the door

I'll step out so I can see clearly
There's light that knocks on doors, you'll see
So I keep waiting and waiting and waiting

I can feel it growing inside of me
This sickly sweet hypocrisy
When I take a sip, I destroy my writhing insides

Hoping you're there and hoping you're scared
And hoping you're waiting

Handcuffed in gold, I'm so far from escaping
My palms are cut, clean cut's a painting
Without a frame of mind

I lose my touch on the glass
Burning holes that I'm trying to grip
And never get back what I'm putting in
But you slide away and everything's foggy, all coated in gloom
I'm neck deep and sinking, wrapped around you
Will the light ever hit my fragmented mind?

Through the Cracks

I'm pleased to unveil the first single "Looking at The Ocean" off my upcoming album "Empty Out Who You Are"

as I wake up to the loudest sound of my life
I miss the minute prior
Still in my peace
Made a friend who lacks the ability to cry
But only really if you need to see tears


That’s all talk you’re wrong if memory serves us the best
Check the cavalcade of keeping off track
In my hand I won’t let go of all this broken glass
Cuz I’m not losing that
Won’t loosen up my grasp
But no one’s there in fact
And all of this in my head
In my head


And I know I’m not right
I don’t think looking at the oceans much of a life
Give it some sort of time I don’t think looking at the oceans much of a life
And I know I’m not right
I don’t think
I don’t think

Should have know that no helps was coming
I’ll open up my head some so you can climb in cold
I’ve only done it once and that was enough

I can’t shake the feeling
Riding a downward path
It’s been real but I should really take off
All the pretty things perhaps they’re just painted on
Why won’t the pain just stop
210 foot drop

And I know I’m not right
I don’t think looking at the oceans much of a life
Give it some sort of time
I don’t think looking at the oceans much of a life

Should have known that no help was coming
I’ll open up my head some so you can climb in cold
I’ve only done it twice and that was enough
On the screen I can see what’s coming
They’ll open up my head some until their stomachs full
What has life become but the killing of time
Just waiting to die

February

"House of Cards" is the stunning debut solo single from @IsaacHowlett, best known as the singer and songwriter behind the internationally renowned British synth-pop band, @EmpathyTest. 

While not a million miles from the dark, emotional, and cinematic tones we've grown to expect from Empathy Test over the years, "House of Cards" finds Isaac's poignant and arresting vocals bolstered by the energy of a punchy uptempo beat and angular synth-bass groove.

With lyrics confronting the brutal reality but eventual relief of escaping a toxic relationship, the first taste of Isaac Howlett's solo material will have you dancing with tears in your eyes.

"House of Cards" releases everywhere digitally on 28th February 2024. Preorder begins 14th February.

Don’t Get Lemon is the collaborative artistic work of longtime friends Austin Curtis, Nicholas Ross, and Bryan Walters. After touring the west coast off of their debut album, “Hyper Hollow Heaven”, DGL returned with new singles Autocratic Gore and Blow-Up, including a remix by De Lux. With DGL’s triumphant second album, “Have Some Shame” the art-pop trio have expanded their sound to glittering new heights as they dance between shimmering synth-pop and stomping glam rock.

This heartfelt sound forms an idiosyncratic identity that also wouldn’t be out of place in a classic John Hughes 80s film soundtrack .

Singer Austin Curtis’ looks and stage performance sits comfortably between the sensual sway of Elvis Presley and the chameleon fluidity of David Bowie. Each performance is an internal battle between masculine and feminine forces punctuated by northern soul style dance movies and the desperate magnetism of Joy Division. Flanked on both sides of him, guitarist/keyboardist Nick Ross and bassist Bryan Walters provide a daring and original take on new-wave acts such as Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, Talking Heads, and Simple Minds, as well as contemporaries like LCD Soundsystem, Alex Cameron, and Cold Cave. Together with Curtis’ smooth yet desperate croon, recalling Morrissey and Bryan Ferry, the Anglophile Texans stretch their hands across the Atlantic to fashion a genuine grasp of pop culture past and future.
