ALT ROUND-UP: Releases You Might Have Missed – Spiritbox, LIGHTS, & More!

It’s been an insane week for music, so we understand if a few releases fell off your radar. From Spiritbox to LIGHTS, we’ve gathered some of our favorite releases from the Metal/Alternative scene over the last week to make sure you aren’t missing a beat. So grab a snack, your favorite drink, or three, and put your favorite headphones on. Let’s buzz on in!

‘No Loss, No Love’ – Spiritbox

When we say we are foaming at the mouth to get our hands on Tsunami Sea and that March 7th cannot come fast enough, we mean it. ‘Soft Spine’ and ‘Perfect Soul’ already had us completely sold that Spiritbox is about to redefine the genre yet again with this new album. But ‘No Loss, No Love’ absolutely seals that statement. And the music video?? Consider us gagged. Courtney LaPlante if you’re reading this, we are free next Thursday at 7 pm. Please let us know on any of our socials below if you’re free next Thursday at 7 pm when we are also free.

‘ALIVE AGAIN’ – LIGHTS

Speaking of people who constantly redefine their sound and the scene they exist within, LIGHTS new single ‘ALIVE AGAIN’ added 30 years onto our lifespan. The track talks about reaching the kind of low where you stop caring about waking up the next day or waking up at all. In these dark and terrifying moments, you find out what really matters to you and makes your life worth living. As LIGHTS puts it, this is a “last hope” anthem. And we can say with utmost certainty that if we reached our last hope, we’d put ‘ALIVE AGAIN’ on repeat. You pre-save LIGHTS upcoming album A6, which is out everywhere on May 2nd, now!

‘What Day Is It, October? (Re-Recorded) Ft. Nathan Hardy of Microwave – Free Throw

It’s already a great day when one of your favorite bands announces a re-release of one of their best albums. But it’s a god-tier day when that re-release also features more of your faves on it. Free Throw spoils us constantly. And ‘What Day Is It, October? (Re-Recorded) Ft. Nathan Hardy of Microwave’ is another example of them keeping us fed. Those Days Are Gone (10 Year Anniversary) is out everywhere on February 28th!

‘LA LA LAND’ – DeathbyRomy

One of our favorite things about DeathbyRomy is that we never know what she’s going to do next. Her upcoming debut album HOLLYWOOD FOREVER is easily one of our most anticipated releases of 2025. ‘LA LA LAND’ is a commentary on life in L.A., the good and the bad. “This sh*t is gonna eat you, and it’ll spit you up.” The music video is also one of many within the storyline of HOLLYWOOD FOREVER. Things are just getting started for DeathbyRomy!
