  2. I love your Spotify playlist Undergroung Rock that I discovered thanks to the Vintage Caravan song you’ve added in.

    I’m Stan, bass player of the french Blues Rock band Midnight Burst.
    We just released our 1rst single from our upcoming album.

    We thought you might be interested in listening to it and maybe adding the song to your playlist.
    We would be so gratefull if you did so.
    It would be a great help for us, to spread the song and our love for Rock music.

    I listened to your band, Blabpipe, and it’s really good, great Alt Rock vibe !

    Either way, thanks in advance for taking the time to read my message.

    Have a great day,
    Stan

  4. Hey Crandew, Deadly Vices again! We’ve got a fresh single out called “Loaded Gun” if you wanna refresh any of our older stuff on your playlist or just add it 🙂

    It’s a more polished/modern sound than our older material, so hopefully it fits. Cheers, and rock on!

  6. Hey Crandew,

    I’m Vince from Deadly Vices, a hard rock/grunge band from Pacifica, California. We have a new single out called “Notice Me” that we’re hoping you’d consider adding to your Spotify playlist:

    We’re trying to bring back that heavy, early-90s aesthetic with updated production.

    We hope you dig it and consider us for your playlist. Thanks for all that you do for underground artists!

  7. Hey Crandew – cool playlist man

    Just wanted to know if I could submit a song for consideration? I’m an independent recording artist who’s just trying to say my thing. I think it’s really cool that you help give artists a way to be heard.

    This is the song

    Appreciate your time 🙏

      You guys have a great sound and your rhythms are awesome! Reminds me of Pixies, which is a band I’ve always loved. I put “The Ritual” and “Overslept” on the playlist. Also, I listened to your songs, great music!

  12. Hi dude, found your playlist and it’s sick! Lots of faves on there (fizzy blood, dinosaur jr., demob happy). I have a new record out with a couple songs I think you might like – it’s kinda lofi desert/stoner rock. Made it all in my bedroom with my homie on drums, hopefully you find it headbangable. The whole record is a quick listen, but the two songs I think you’d like most are:

    “26” – https://open.spotify.com/track/23ruacPNdMYBEXPFM5wedS?si=8265b83481ab4874

    “Starter Fluid” – https://open.spotify.com/track/0WHfD00KNCBRIjtJEUxBsw?si=c29b5f20de8c4360

    Thanks for considering!

  13. Hey Crandew,

    I’ve been listening to your Underground Rock playlist for quite some time now and I really like the song order and artist selection! Also, mad respect for giving new artists the chance and space for discovery!

    Hence, I’m writing to enquire about your submission process 🙂

    My band has recently released a new single – Faceless. It’s grungey, heavy, and dark.

    I’d love you to take a listen and hopefully it’s a good fit for your playlist. Here’s the link to the song, hope you love it!

  14. Hi Crandew!

    First of all, found Underground Rock on Spotify yesterday. And I love it, instantly added a couple of songs to my private playlist.

    I’m the lead singer in the Swedish band Mother Mersy. We play modern blues rock inspired by bands such as Rival Sons, Led Zeppelin and Aerosmith. I think we would be the perfect fit for ‘Underground Rock’ ! In exchange we will share the playlist in our social media channels.

    Have a listen to our single ‘See Right Through Ya’ from our latest album and tell us what you think!

    Music video for the song: https://youtu.be/bmx2p5ZBSZ8

    All the best, Emil Starbrant and Mother Mersy

  15. Hey Crandew! One Way Out, a local band we are friends with told us about your blog and playlist! I love the underground rock playlist and I think our tune “Time Waits for No One” (by Dark Trilobite) would be a great addition to the playlist! It has a nostalgic 2000s rock feel but with modern production and a catchy chorus. Thank you for taking these submissions! Here is the link to the song on spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/2FOnWSGzrdUpzD5HmwPIdo?si=tL7dqI4KSdqqGMNyjWc2gQ&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A3wkm2o8CnTZe9LTxCoaxKr

    • Outstanding! I really love your overall sound.

      The new song is great, just put it on the Underground Rock playlist. We’re working on a new album, hoping to get it finished this summer. More than enough material to release singles, but I like the idea of concept albums too much.

      Rock on, and thanks for staying in touch!

  20. Greetings Crandew!
    Hope you’re doing well. I came across your Underground Rock Playlist on Spotify and wanted to inquire about submitting one of our songs.
    We just released our live single “Like a Dog (Live at House of Independents, Asbury Park, NJ, August 6th, 2021)”. This is a live recording of a song off our latest album “Nightbird Motel” that we performed at our sold-out album release show on August 6th at the infamous House of Independents in Asbury Park, NJ.
    We are a fully independent rock band from NJ and inspired by the likes of Arctic Monkeys, Royal Blood, and The Killers. We love the artists chosen on your playlist and would love the opportunity to be included.
    The single is called “Like a Dog (Live at House of Independents, Asbury Park, NJ, August 6th, 2021)”.

  22. Hi Crandew!
    I just saw your Underground Rock playlist and I think my band, One Way Out’s, new single “Slow Walk” would be a great addition. It’s rock piano mixed with overdrive electric guitar creates a truly unique sound that draws in listeners from all across the rock genre.
    Here’s the link to stream, thank you for the consideration, we’ll be sure to share the playlist on our socials!

  24. Came upon your blog by way of Spottily. I was looking for a playlist to pitch my band’s song. Here is the link if you wanna check it out

    BUT

    I read some of your posts and man are they heavy. Its wild how you can go from deep existential musings to ending on a light and mildly optimistic tone! Your writing style actually reminds of this song ( and band in general). They have deep reflective lyrics that are often kinda dark and gloomy, but not in an emo way.

    Admittedly I originally came to you to pitch my song for you listen to, add to your playlist, or whatever, but I’m glad i found your blog. Its a trip to read dude!
