Mike Mains & the Branches have a) fully funded their pledgemusic campaign to release a new album, b) released a new music video for 'Noises', c) started a tour with Relient K, Hellogoodbye, and William Beckett, or d) ALL OF THE ABOVE.

Hit the jump to see which option is right.

The Ruckus are crowdfunding for their newest single, In Crowd.

**Update** Rapture Ruckus has announced that if the $15,000 target is met, Solomon Olds (lead singer for Family Force 5) has agreed to get on the track and video for the first ever FF5 & Rapture Ruckus collaboration! Woop!

United have released their first music video from their latest studio album ZION.

Relentless is the electronic-driven opening track of the album. Featuring clips from on-stage performances and generic filmed-from-a-moving car scenery, it's a fun video that suits the song.

Check it out below:

from Saskias Cnr today: We had a chat about local lads Mali Mali and the new music vid for their 'Song for the Sun'

they're also the current Kiwi Download - find that here!

and listen to their recent homegrown show with Jon here...

The new music video from the now trio Paramore is for the song Now! This is the debut tune from their new album of the same name.It may seem super violent initally with lots of crazy battle footage etc, but it does have a nice heartstrings moment at the end with a great little 'Love Wins' message. It does take a while to get over the lack of eyebrows in Hayleys new look though! Check it below...

Seems grayscale is the new thing to go for with music videos. Here's the latest vid from Thousand Foot Krutch for their song "War Of Change" off the The End Is Where We Begin release.

For those into the heavier sound, we've got got a little something for you. After catching up with guitarist Anthony Armstrong last week, I'm stoked on this new video from RED for "Release The Panic".

UPDATE!! Their new album Release The Panic has finally made it to NZ iTunes. PS Get the deluxe version with the awesome remixes.

One Republic have set a release date for Native (March 26 btw) and have published the video for "If I Lose Myself" online. 

While the video and the song have a pretty upbeat vibe, the song is actually about something pretty morbid, as the band told MTV News.

So you might not be at Parachute 2013, but you can check the new video from Evermore before anyone else can! The new single "Hero" comes from their album Follow The Sun which is out now, and brilliant (jut FYI).

Check out the new music video for Dukes' song "Sweet". Very cool idea, to match the very coolness of the song.

Hopefully it won't be too long till an EP (or maybe even a full length album) is out from these guys - I'll keep you posted.
