The L.I.F.E. Project Cover Blondie’s “Call Me”
The L.I.F.E. Project, the band featuring Josh Rand (Stone Sour) and Casandra Carson (Paralandra, Casandra’s Crossing), have released a cover of Blondie’s “Call Me.” You can check that out below:
Rand commented:
“Back in 2020 I was searching for a female vocalist to front my new project. I was connected with Casandra Carson and asked her what song she’d like to sing for the audition. ‘Call Me’ was her choice so I quickly put it together musically for her to sing to. She crushed it and the rest is history. We never intended to release this track, but we thought it would be cool for you to hear the song that started it all.”
Carson added:
“‘Call Me’ has been one of those staple songs that I’ve been doing live since my first cover band when I was 17. This recording, specifically, was kind of my audition to be in The L.I.F.E. Project. Josh wanted me to pick a song to cover that would be comfortable, and we could use to test out how we would work together, and this felt like the perfect choice. Turns out, I got the job! It’s crazy that it’s coming out of the vault and going public after all these years.”

Davion Cuttler (Hollow Front, VCTMS) To Take A Hiatus From Touring
Davion Cuttler (Hollow Front, VCTMS) is planning to take a hiatus from touring. The bassist wants to “slow [his] life down for a while and give more attention to [his] home life and overall wellbeing.”
Cuttler said the following:
“This is an announcement I didn’t want to have to make.
I will be taking a hiatus from touring for an undetermined amount of time. Feels like I’m cutting a piece of myself off by saying it, but it’s the necessary decision for me at this time.
I can’t speak for all musicians, but I personally feel like the luckiest man in the world to have been able to call this crazy lifestyle of being a touring musician my ‘job’ for the past 5 years. However, I feel I CAN speak for all musicians when I say your physical health, mental health and health of your home life should always come first. As amazing as this lifestyle is, it’s important to remember that it also comes with a laundry list of sacrifices, some of which being at the detriment of the people you hold closest to you.
With all that being said, making this choice means I regrettably wont be hitting the road with VCTMS for their tour with Thousand Below in the coming weeks. Please make sure to go out to the shows and give them an extra bit of love for me.
Along with this hiatus from touring, I will also be taking a bit of a step back from my activity on socials. Even though I haven’t been very active to begin with in the recent months while I’ve been reflecting and coming to terms with making this decision.
I need to slow my life down for a while and give more attention to my home life and overall wellbeing. I don’t know how long I’ll be away from everything for, but it’ll take as long as it has to.
Much love. ❤️”

Southpaw FLHC Continue To Deny Racism Allegations
As previously reported, Southpaw FLHC were recently accused of Nazism after drummer Harrison Linder was seen wearing merch from alleged white supremacy brand Curbstomp. That controversy resulted in a loss of support acts and cancellations from various venues. Despite this, the band denied the allegations and have now continued to do so.
The group, who recently noted their rising streams, shared their latest video statement on August 15. Vocalist Daryn LaMontagne said the following:
“You know what’s wild is this shit’s been going on for like a week straight now because y’all have nothing better to do with your lives. Don’t y’all stupid motherfuckers realize that if we were really a racist band, we would just admit it? What the fuck do we have to lose at this point? We started with absolutely nothing, built relationships throughout the entire United States, booked our own tours on our own through networking and supporting other bands across the map, whether they fucked with us or not, took it to the highest level we possibly could on our own, became a “signed” band, lost it all, and we are still here and it’s not fucking stopping. Don’t you think by now we would just say it?
Do you really think that I give a fuck about the opinion of these sheep on the internet? Y’all motherfuckers live on the internet. I live out here in the real world. I don’t know what the fuck y’all got going on out here, but I’m outside in the real world going to shows, supporting bands, whether they fuck with me, whether they fuck with us or not. I’m still supporting the cause, still putting my time and energy into the same game that gave us so much.
What are you actually gonna do when I roll up to the spot and put on a pop-up show for free, and host an event in a random parking lot with permission to be there and the police can’t do anything about it? Nothing. Are you willing to die on this hill? Because I can tell you this much, I’ve sacrificed my life for this game. I’ve given everything that I possibly can. It’s all in the record.
I’ve been evicted for this shit. I’ve slept on the floor with cockroaches for this shit. Collectively, I’ve lost years of my life with my own child for the love of this game. Did y’all really think that by my drummer making a mistake. because he was uneducated about what he was wearing. that you’re gonna stop this shit?
I’ve learned a lot about all y’all because you’ve shown your true colors online. Rather than stepping to us or me or my drummer as a man and asking a simple question and having a conversation like grown adults, you chose to hop on the bandwagon and air out your opinions online. And I keep receipts of everything. A lot of y’all are gonna have to eat your words real soon, so you picked your side, stand on it. Best of luck to you.
Be blessed.”
Notably, some reports suggest the band may have beend dropped by Spinefarm Records. However, the label have yet to comment.
