It’s safe to say that everyone’s already getting a head start on choosing the song that will be most played this summer. Over the past few months, La+ch and Dustbuster of the band Coleman Hell have become increasingly popular on Soundcloud for their remixes of songs by artists like Katy Perry and Rihanna. But this time around, the duo has made their mark with over 55,000 plays (and counting) in just a few days on their new original single entitled "Hunter."

Not only is this a song that is likely to end up at the club you’re dancing in, but it’s one of those songs that seem like they're meant to mark the iconic moments in life just like in the movies. Whether it's a late night drive blasting music in your car with the windows down, hearing it in the background during a game of beer pong at the cottage, or maybe just using it as an excuse to have a dance party in your apartment while you’re making waffles for breakfast. 

The simplicity of this song is what makes it such a catch...and catchy tune. In fact, it’s the only thing I’ve been singing from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to sleep. Every inch of this track is sticky and it’s sticky in a good way. 

With the plays on Soundcloud still escalating by the minute, it looks like the internet has spoken. I can't wait to see what else these guys have in store for us.

True Nothing
Pirates Press (2026)

Let’s get crazy and out of control! That’s what the opening line of the album instructs us to do and I’m inclined to listen. I am new to the DeeCRACKS party and I’m not sure how I missed them. Celebrating 20 years in 2023, the band released 20 Years. A Frantic Effort, and I’m sure this newest release fully delivers … Read more

Ain't My World
Black Numbers (2026)

Massive Nighmares debuted in 2024 with a short EP. Now they return with a full-length. The band plays a somewhat even blend of punk, emo, and alt-rock. As an example, check out "Up In Arms," which is like Dear You era Jawbreaker with a boost of power-pop and maybe some Lemonheads mixed in as well. While it's easily the poppiest … Read more
