Making a bold return, genre-defying, North Carolina-bred quartet and live sensations Rainbow Kitten Surprise will unveil their first full-length album in six years, LOVE HATE MUSIC BOX, on May 10, 2024 via Elektra Entertainment. After years of struggling with her own mental health that resulted in writers block, on-stage episodes, and tour cancellations, RKS singer/songwriter/frontperson Ela Melo was properly diagnosed and treated in 2023, vastly improving her quality of life. As if suddenly struck by creative intervention, songs once again poured out of her, writing at least one a day for an entire year and forming the backbone of their 22-track opus LOVE HATE MUSIC BOX. This epic mosaic of sound and emotion was fully realized once the band - guitarists Bozzy Keller and Ethan Goodpaster, drummer Jess Haney and former bassist Charlie Holt- reconvened in the studio, adding another dimension sonically. Produced by Daniel Tashian (Kacey Musgraves) along with Konrad Snyder (Noah Kahan) and Melo, the much-anticipated album ponders lifes ups and downs, and traces the turbulent trajectory of relationships, painted out loud in hues of pop, electronic, rock, and hip-hop. As such, it finds the musicians at their most vulnerable, vibrant, and vital. From Peter Pan through the finale Thanks For Coming, LOVE HATE MUSIC BOX unspools a cohesive vision all-around. Among the many highlights, they notably teamed up with GRAMMY Award-winning multiplatinum supernova Kacey Musgraves on the impassioned Overtime.

KNOCKED LOOSE:
As Knocked Loose chipped away at what would become their third album, they felt the pressure from all sides. Internally, there was the need to challenge themselves as songwriters while retaining the merciless intensity and unflinching honesty that have always been their calling cards. Externally, there was a whole new set of eyes on the hard-touring Louisville quintet, following a banner year in which theyd brought their underground-seasoned sound to some of the worlds biggest stages, finding themselves the unlikely viral darlings of both Coachella and Bonnaroo.
The creative process was arduous, with the band writing close to 40 songs across a span of four years before locking in the 10 tracks that make up new LP You Wont Go Before Youre Supposed To. But in the end, vocalist Bryan Garris, guitarists Isaac Hale and Nicko Calderon, bassist Kevin Otten and drummer Kevin Pac Sun Kaine honed a diverse, cohesive and savagely intense album that both sums up the massive strides theyve taken during their decade as a band, and asserts their boundless potential going forward.
Raging lead single Blinding Faith skillfully wields whiplash tempo changes in service of a scathing indictment of religious groupthink. Dont Reach for Me combines the bands signature frenzied attack with deliberate catchiness and refreshing sonic variety. While Suffocate, featuring pop-meets-metal trailblazer Poppy, contrasts an oppressive heaviness befitting the title with a dance-y, syncopated groove and, midway through, the most concussive reggaeton rhythm youve ever heard.
The album title a phrase that a fellow passenger said to Garris to soothe his severe air-travel anxiety during a particularly trying flight strikes a note of reassurance. But glossing over negative emotions isnt what Knocked Loose are about. The new songs find them plumbing new depths of loathing directed both inward and outward and tortuous anguish. Musically, theyre leaning into their most extreme impulses, from blastbeat-driven fury, chaotic turbulence and seismic breakdowns, while seasoning the mix with ear-catching auxiliary percussion, evocative samples and shout-along hooks, all interwoven to perfection by Grammy-nominated, pop-savy producer Drew WZRD BLD Fulk.
Theres no ceiling for hardcore in 2024 even an outfit as uncompromising as Knocked Loose can turn up in mainstream-adjacent spaces and win over new fans. But theres a center to what they do that will never change: uncompromising heaviness, both sonically and thematically. What is evolving is their drive to find new ways to convey that heaviness, and add tasteful variety that only highlights their undiminished ferocity. Everywhere Knocked Loose have been is here on this record but so is everywhere they may yet go.
