MATT'S MAY MUSIC RECAP...

Well, it’s been 1,447 days since I posted anything on YourFriendMatt.com. Had to take a modest 3 years, 11 months, and 17 days off to clear my head.

Feel lost. But, we’re back. Here are some of the best alternative, rock, hardcore songs I found in May!

Standouts: Kid Lightning - Carney - No Pressure - Buggin

Kid Lightning - thought they sounded familiar and then I found out it was a mega-band of members from Save Face, Joyce Manor, and Mom Jeans. So, it better be good - and it is.

No Pressure - Lead by vocalist of The Story So Far. Way more punk and hardcore - but great.

Buggin - Wow. Female lead metal tough band, think GEL. Better yet - Philly based! Check it now.

Mike Carney - Long time friend and hippie. Great to watch him grow as a musician and never hold back. NJ guy too! Gotta love it!

Check it all out on Spotify or Apple Music now!

Happy Friday! This weeks playlist is a story. It starts off poppy with some new tracks from With Confidence & Crooked Teeth,  slows down with The Story So Far & Youth Fountain, and ends with some metal singles from Counterparts & Quiet Fear.

It’s been an odd week but these songs capture it pretty well!
