Today we are thrilled to bring you the premiere of the debut EP by Madison-based post-hardcore band Endswell! The EP is called Keepsake and features four kick ass tracks. Speaking about the EP the band said,
”A few years ago, our old project (redacted) fell apart and we were thinking about throwing in the towel… Until Alan showed us the main riff in “Heart Container”. This is why we decided to continue making music together. Shortly afterwards, we added Louie and Luke from local bands Tiny Voices and Kule respectively. Keepsake is everything we ever wanted to write together and is truly only the beginning. The title track was written by Maxwell and is from one of his old projects; “Spirit Blues” was written and worked on with the whole lineup; “Cruise Control” was written by Alan; and “Heart Container” came together the night the full lineup practiced for the first time. The lyrics on the EP reflect a lot of what had been going on in Maxwell’s life the last few years. They touch on topics like death, friendships falling out, and heartbreak.”
Keepsake will be out everywhere on June 7 via Thumbs Up Records. Endswell will be touring the US with Fly Over States, Hey ILY, Blind Equation, and Red Sun next week. Listen to the EP below!

Today we are thrilled to bring you the premiere of the new album by Toronto-based pop punk power trio The Mendozaz! The album is called Loafers and marks their third full-length to be released. Speaking about the album Jonny said,
“For our first record we wore our influences proudly on our sleeve. Then for the follow-up we moved as far away from that as we could. For number three we took whatever crazy idea came to mind and chased it down until it reached its logical conclusion. We ended up with some strange stuff: a love song to our technological overlords, an ode to a Canadian historical figure who doesn’t get nearly as much love as he deserves (despite his name), a couple exposés that are sure to upset dog-lovers and bird-lovers alike and the most infectious earworm anyone could come up with.”
We also caught up with the band to hear the stories behind the twelve tracks. Loafers will be out on June 7 via Cartridge Heart. Check out the album and track-by-track breakdown below!

Today we are thrilled to bring you the premiere of the new video by New Jersey’s Bobby Mahoney! The video is for their new song “We Go On” and was directed by Elijah Reiss. Speaking to Punknews about the video, Bobby Mahoney said,
“For this "We Go On" video, I had my best friend and longtime collaborator, Elijah Reiss, go back through what he refers to as "The Mahoney Archives''- my old family home movies, and videos of my first junior high and high school bands, leading into the formation of Seventh Son, and onward up to present day! Elijah and his brother, Ethan, run 'Reiss Restorations' where they convert analog film to digital, which they did for my family a while ago, so we have been sitting on this footage and it seemed like the perfect song to use it for! Take a ride through Bobby Mahoney's history and lore with us! There are a lot of fun Easter Eggs for longtime fans, and it is a great vehicle for the song for first-time listeners as well!”
”We Go On” is off their upcoming album Another Deadbeat Summer which will be out on June 14 via Wicked Cool Records. Bobby Mahoney will be playing their record release show with Soraia, Idle Wave, and Feeny on July 12 at the Wonder Bar in Asbury Park. Watch the video below!
