Vintage Lee doubles down on R&B with new tunes ‘Side Missions’ and ‘Mine’

<p>Vintage Lee‘s 2025 project Grease Pack is nine months old at this point, but she’s still got slick verses to spare. This week (April 22) the Roxbury artist dropped a pair of glossy tunes, “Side Missions” and “Mine.” The singles lean closer to chilled-out R&B than her signature hard-line hip-hop, but they’re both that classic Lee length, a succinct two minutes and change — long enough to hook ya, short enough to keep the beats on repeat indefinitely. Tune in […]</p>

Baltimore Orioles announce Turnstile Night

The Baltimore Orioles baseball team have announced a Turnstile night. It will take place on July 10 at Oriole Park at Camden Yards for their game against the Kansas City Royals. The band won’t be performing, but a limited-edition Turnstile-themed Orioles jersey will be available (to fans who buy a Special Ticket Package) and members of the band will be spraying fans with a hose, along with one of the team’s mascots, the aptly named Mr. Splash, when the team gets an extra base hit. Turnstile threw out the first pitch at an Orioles game in 2023 and their song “Birds”, off their 2025 album Never Enough, was used for the Orioles season kick-off video. “Birds” is also one of first baseman Pete Alonso’s walk up songs.

Exclusive Videos: Watch the new video by Screaming At Traffic!

Today, we are thrilled to bring you the premiere of the new video by Winnipeg-based emo-infused punk rockers Screaming at Traffic! The video is for “Scary Marlow”, the lead single from their upcoming EP Songs to Steal Copper Wire to, and was filmed during their time recording scratch tracks and drums at Private Ear Studio on January 11, 2026. The footage was shot by Dwayne Larson and the video was edited by guitarist and vocalist Jacques Richer. Speaking to Punknews about the song, Jacques said, ”‘Maybe it's time to get sober’ is a line that's been bouncing around my head for years, both musically and otherwise. I've always admired bands that seemed to age alongside me, and it really felt with this song, as with the rest of the EP, that I was writing from a different perspective then I have previously. It's a lot less tongue in cheek, that's for sure and it feels more honest about the anxieties or fears I have as an adult. For example, I have, on more than one occasion, felt I had to reconsider or re-examine my relationship with alcohol. ‘Scary Marlow’, to me, is an exploration of that feeling. Am I just trying to recapture my youth by overindulging, or is that just a cover for a more sinister problem?”Songs to Steal Copper Wire to will be out everywhere on May 15 and you can pre-order a copy right here. Screaming At Traffic will be playing Pouzza Fest in Montreal in May. Watch the video for “Scary Marlow” and check out the tracklist for Songs to Steal Copper Wire to below!
