NEW! Album – Keepers of the Concord RPG Soundtrack by Dusty Rhymes

PeaceGrooves Productions, along with Tongue Screw Records and Revolutions Music, are pleased to announce the album release of Keepers of the Concord, the soundtrack for the RPG Game, Keepers of the Concord, from PeaceGrooves.com.

Dusty Rhymes (aka The D.R.) is a musician, sonic storyteller, and digital artist whose work explores the nexus of roots, rhythm, myth, and modern sound. With an ear for atmosphere and a gift for shaping songs that feel lived-in and cinematic, Rhymes creates music that carries both dust and light—grounded in human longing while reaching for something beyond mere existence.

For The Keepers album, Rhymes developed a 14 song soundscape of Seldara, the world of the Keepers of the Concord, giving voice to themes of courage, reconciliation, wounded communities, and the fragile hope of peace. His music moves between folk-shadowed reflection, pulsing digital textures, and anthem-like moments of resolve, offering listeners not just songs, but a journey through places of melody and imagination.

New Rock Roundup

Rock

Papa Roach – See U In Hell.

Papa Roach just know how to craft tunes! With the singing parts of this track genuinely being some of the best I have heard from them in a while. The rap section is handled by Hanumankind whom I have never heard of before but he does a great job!

https://open.spotify.com/track/26wlaTdnrLNmpz5usoU2T3?si=2bdb7a0afd27476f

Metal

I C RED – 2FU2C.

It is not often you get so much electronic effect on a straight up metal song, normally that is reserved for metalcore alone. This works really well here and a special mention to the vocals too which are incredible.

https://open.spotify.com/track/7fEZEyfqrlTlPGVk6c8jm5?si=8224847c76a84637

Metalcore

Hopes Avenue – Misty Eyes.

We reviewed a song by Hopes Avenue previously and really digged it. For those who have not heard songs by the Scottish band before watch out for the soaring melodic vocals combined with harsh screams. I think the riffs are really damn great here too!

https://open.spotify.com/track/5g1u8q4wg1zrJeN8eEDt1B?si=176ee4b5877e43df

Punk

Dolly Min – Plug It In.

Fast. Fun. Punk. What is there not to like about this?! I really enjoy female vocals especially in punk songs so this was always going to make the hairs stand up on my arms! My friend Sam will like this , hey Sam!

https://open.spotify.com/track/1VVyqgqXGXfiEvAOtyw2yU?si=72f44649aa4c4dc6

Pop Punk

Movements – Dissolve Me.

There might be some people who do not like that I counted this in my Pop Punk category, to those I will fight you. It’s pop punk with lashings of emo added on top. That upbeat tempo with the downbeat emo lyric style.

https://open.spotify.com/track/0CtPILcMn9wMvPjVoq2Rh6?si=672de8ffcf7b4526

Alternative

Summer’s Brother – Solid Ground.

This is pretty unique! It’s pop like, indie in places and a smothering of psych rock. You wont have heard a song like this before. But you might be checking them out moving forward.

https://open.spotify.com/track/0NM15moIfu431ttU9B4aTs?si=93bddcfa852f4154

Indie

Forget Them Wendy – Plug It In.

I adore the fuzzy bass on this track, combined with the vocals! It creates this effect that I would say isn’t all that common and you are going to love it too!
