Update: The chat is over, thanks to the guys for hanging out tonight.

Cartel won't be releasing Collider until March 26th, but today we're giving you a small taste of what's to come on arguably the best album of the band's career. The track we're premiering is "Uninspired," a mid-tempo rocker that showcases vocalist Will Pugh in total control. He and the rest of the band will also be joining this thread to discuss the song, the upcoming album, and anything else, so stick around for that as well. So check out "Uninspired" in the replies (or the band's AP.net profile) and hang out with the band.

Ladyfinger (ne) will release their third album Errant Forms on Saddle Creek next week, but why wait until then to listen? You can now exclusively stream this upcoming album on their AP.net profile. If you enjoy indie-rock (or a "mix of classic rock bombast and punk grit" as the band likes to describe themselves), and fellow label mates Cursive, then this comes highly recommended. So go take a listen and let us know what you think! If you like what you hear, make sure to grab a copy of their LP, which is limited to 500 copies, here. Enjoy.

You may remember Kut U Up from Riding in Vans with Boys, a documentary about the band's opening stint on the Pop Disaster Tour with Blink 182 and Green Day. (Spoiler alert: drunken hilarity ensues.) The guys are still at it, and you can stream a new song titled "Fine Columbians" on their AP.net profile. The track comes from Unsigned/Unrest, a benefit compilation featuring new and previously unreleased material from Socratic, Mike Felumlee, Over It, House of Fools and more. It comes out February 12th via Broken Heart Records and can be pre-ordered here.

The Atlantic may be relatively new to the scene as a band, but on their own they have had their ties. Whether it be Dave drumming for The Best Week Ever or Jessica singing on Sleeping With Sirens' latest acoustic EP, the duo are making a name for themselves. You can stream/download a new track entitled "Wasting Time" featuring Xander of SECRETS on the band's AP.net profile. The song was recorded with Erik Ron (Four Year Strong, Panic! At The Disco, Foxy Shazam) out in California a few months back. Give the track a listen and leave your thoughts in the replies. And if you missed it, the band premiered another track yesterday on our sister site Purevolume.

Today we're premiering the title track from Farewell, My Love's upcoming record called "Mirror, Mirror." The Standby Records act has been building a name for itself since 2011 in the Phoenix music scene and is ready to take on the world with its own brand of self-proclaimed theatrical rock. The song “Mirror, Mirror” chronicles the haywire circumstances surrounding someone who is pulled in multiple directions and questioning their very identity. Listen to the track on the band's AP.net profile and leave your thoughts in the replies.

The Ally Coalition was founded by the members of fun. and designer Rachel Antonoff to take action for LGBTQ equality. California pop punkers Heart to Heart have teamed up with the organization to create a public service announcement. Head to the replies to view the video. This is an issue close to the band, as drummer Stuart Stock publicly came out last year. Heart to Heart also put out a killer self-titled album in October, which is still streaming on their AP.net profile.

It's not often that I'm impressed by covers, or anything Bruno Mars related for that matter, but Gareth Bush makes both sound pretty damn good. His cover of "Young Girls" is incredible, and it's no surprise that he is quickly becoming one of Ontario's hottest up-and-coming acts, gaining attention worldwide. Without further ado, take a look at the video in the replies, and let us know what you think. If you like what you hear, make sure to support him by buying his new EP This Is For Keeps. Enjoy.

Squid The Whale are a talented band in their own right, but the Detroit Four have shown a knack for bringing your favorite vocalists back. Last time we premiered a Squid track, You, Me, and Everyone We Know's Ben Liebsch showed up for a verse - this time, it's Nic Newsham of Gatsby's American Dream grabbing the mic. Hit the replies to hear "How Do I Show These Cowboys I'm Alive?," the final song from Squid The Whale's new EP, Four More.

Today we're bringing you a brand new lyric video from electro-tinged metalcore act The Animal in Me. Hit the replies to check out the video for a song from their recent EP Instincts entitled "Riddles".

Chicago punk rock royalty Mike Felumlee may be best known as the former drummer of Alkaline Trio and Smoking Popes, but he also fronts a solo project that isn't a far cry from his previous bands. Head to his AP.net profile to hear a new track, appropriately titled "Your Favorite Song." It comes from Broken Heart Records' Unsigned/Unrest, which is due out on February 12th. The benefit compilation features new and previously unreleased material from Socratic, Over It, House of Fools, Kut U Up and more. Pre-order it here.

We have a brand new song from Philadelphia's Ex Friends, the side project for Joel Tannenbaum (bassist/songwriter for Plow United).

You can check out the track over at the band's AP.net profile or in the replies.

Today we are bringing you an exclusive stream of Fur Of Heaven's new EP A Year Without Teeth.

You can stream it right now at the band's AP.net profile or in the replies. Let us know what you think!

Silverstein's second release for Hopeless Records - This Is How The Wind Shifts - is the band's finest effort to date. The record's core concept is each track has a parallel track that tells the story in a different light - what would have happened if things were different due to a single event, thus the album's title. Today we are thrilled to premiere one piece of that concept, the infectiously catchy "Massachusetts." You can stream the song at the band's profile or in the replies. If you dig what you hear, This Is How The Wind Shifts is available for pre-order here. The band's upcoming headlining tour kicks off on January 25th and you can check out the dates and pre-order your...

Southern California's Cloud People suffer that same affliction most bands face - they're singerless. Between the Anthony Green impersonators, the 13-year-old YouTube screamers, and those who simply suck, the odds are against all bands these days. With a sound Circa Survive, Moving Mountains, Boys Night Out, and Periphery fans will gravitate towards, we wanted to help the guys find that perfect fit - hit the replies to stream/download instrumental demos and find out how to audition.

This is a good one, you guys. When I first heard Half Hearted Hero's upcoming album Whatever a few months ago, I was floored. I don't listen to a ton of pop-punk anymore, but this album had me instantly hooked. So I'm incredibly happy that we're exclusively premiering the album today, which you can stream here. It's bound to be one of 2013's early surprises - it's hard for me to compare it to any band, but I would imagine many of you will dig this, especially if you're a fan of The Wonder Years and the like. The album is set to release on January 15th via Animal Style Records, and you can pre-order it here. Let us know what you think the album in the replies.
