War On Women – “Capture The Flag”
We’ve got another killer RECORD OF THE WEEK Blog coming down the pipe!!
Baltimore’s WAR ON WOMEN were born screaming—at the world, at the status quo, in the face of oppression. The band’s forthcoming album “Capture The Flag” calcifies that rage, and no one in its wake is safe. Much more than a collection of songs or sonic experiment, “Capture The Flag” is a call to action that cannot be ignored. Currently out on a mini tour, if you can’t catch WAR ON WOMEN live then head over to BRIDGE NINE RECORDS today!

NIGHTSTOP is the brainchild of Ere Ek, a Finnish synthwave producer who draws his inspiration and influence from 1980s cyberpunk movies, video games and pop culture. Ek began making his ominous, atmospheric music under the NIGHTSTOP moniker in 2012 and has been ingrained within Finland and Europe’s tight-knit DIY scene ever since, steadily putting out cassette and vinyl releases. To coincide with “Dancing Killer’s” first US release, NIGHTSTOP is releasing a brand-new single called “Phantasmagoria” as a bonus track, a pulsing, action-packed song whose soundscape that sounds like NightStop took all his analog gear and put it in a blender, with digital synths run all through heavy distortion.
