A new, hard-edged alt-rocker from this Pure Noise-signed artist.
I love the chorus on this one a lot.

Good song for Active but an incredible one for Alternative. Come on Alt radio, do me a solid for once.

Sounds better than most of the songs I've heard from this band. Cool Alt rock sound. I like the way the guitars vibrate in the verses. Songs from Smiths, and Vertical Horizon come to mind

They are really well critically received but seem to be too Active for Alt, and too Alt for Active if that makes sense.

I first discovered this band when I heard “Halo” on XM Octane 87. I liked the song so much that I went out and purchased “Welcome to the Neighborhood” which is a damn good album. This is another quality track and I look forward to hearing more music from these guys!!

This hit #1 on Alt Cool New Music streams. This doesn't always mean a whole lot in terms of spins/charting but it's a sign that Alternative is interested.

Really love this, came across it while browsing new rock on Spotify and instantly saved it!

I looked up Plasticine. It's "plastilina" I always thought Americans called it Plastiline?

This is really good, sadly don't see this doing much if "Ratking" and "Liquid" didn't do much. Octane needs to pick this up to help it go top 50 on active, considering that's what happened to "Halo" from last year.

These guys are really starting to find their sound with this latest album that to me sounds similar to their previous one. However, I think it's just not fit for radio at the time right now. Probably too heavy for the weak material that has been on Alt for quite some time and maybe too safe for Active.
This is one of my more favorable songs on their new album. I wish I had better expectations.

I wish I had better expectations. I like to refer to this as Jack's Mannequin Syndrome. Same thing happened to them, too Alt for Hot AC, too Hot AC for Alt, should have had quite a few hits. Lot of artists have issues with that mold. |

I wish I had better expectations. I hope KPNT and/or WBUZ, as the two most prominent Active-leaning Alts on the panel, break the ice and add this song. Sometimes it only takes one taker to start a domino effect and turn a song into a hit. |

Wow. I liked "Ratking" and "Liquid" but this one is flippin' great. (Put these guys on the upcoming Biffy Clyro tour!)
A band to keep an eye on. "Halo" ended up among my Top 5 songs of last year. Still enjoy tracking that one.
