Los Angeles-based indie rock band One Outta Ten opened the year with the release of their single “Distant Stars,” offering an early look into the theme that would later shape their album Like You Never Left, which released earlier this year in February. Known for their melodic sound, engaging live performance, and emotionally driven lyrics, the five-piece creates a sound that mixes catchy melodies with feelings of uncertainty about growing up.

Japanese rock legend HYDE is set to release his highly anticipated album JEKYLL on March 11. The release follows the debut of his latest single, "THE ABYSS," which premiered with an accompanying music video in January on the artist's birthday.
