So we’re excited and intrigued by the return of Charlotte OC, the English singer-songwriter who not only resurfaces with an elegantly dramatic new single in “God, We Tried,” which already feels like one of 2025’s best, but also reveals some personal setbacks that allow proper view to this enchanting new release. “God, We Tried” dropped on Wednesday (March 19) via Embassy of Music, and sets up a new EP […]</p>

<p>For those of a certain age, returning from the record store in 1994 and placing Helmet’s Betty into the CD tray and pressing “play” for the first time was a transformative experience. Now Page Hamilton’s influential alternative metal band takes the iconic record out for a 30th anniversary tour, and tonight (March 20) it fills the Paradise Rock Club, the night after hosting Quicksand, no less, with its incendiary sound. The record will be played in full, from “Wilma’s Rainbow” to “Sam Hell,” alongside some […]</p>

Today we are extremely excited to bring you the premiere of the new song and video by Shari Page! The song is called “Waitlisted” and comes with a lyric video that was directed by Brendan McKnight. Along with Shari Page, Mikey Gaggs and Jenny Palumbo play on the track. Speaking to Punknews about the song, Shari said, The idea for ‘Waitlisted’ came from trying to make a restaurant reservation in Brooklyn, NY and being rejected. It also explores different feelings of what I was going through in my life. Trying to find my way back to my positivity. I had moments where I felt like I was around constant negativity and feeling rejected from the things I love. I was thinking ‘The only way to live is to be a cynic’. The lyric drives the overall vibe of the song. I like a little negativity and humor with my coffee, but I would hopefully never be a full time cynic.  Life is a series of rejections but you can’t give up at eating at that one restaurant. “”Waitlisted” will hit streaming services on March 21. Watch the video below!
