The new music video for Abandon Kansas' tune "Turn It To Gold" hit the internet today. You can grab it as a single on iTunes and don't forget to check out the interview Dan did with Jeremy from the band.

You can stream the whole new album Vessel from Twenty One Pilots at Music Mix before it's released on January 8. And make sure you take a look at the music video for "Holding Onto You".

Hyland have released Finding Our Way on iTunes today! It's the second release from the band and reviews so far (like this one) make it one to check out for sure.
Have a look at this lyric video for the single "Beauty In The Broken".

Remember Stellar Kart?? It's been over 2 years since they released Everything Is Different, their worship project. Sure, there was the Disney EP last year, but pretty much out of nowhere they've launched a pay-what-you-like Acoustic EP featuring six classics (like "Me & Jesus" and "Something Holy") as well as two brand new tunes that are likely to be on their 2013 studio release.
Stream the tracks, download them if you want them, and expect new stuff from these guys in the first half of next year.

Worship band Esterlyn released Woven a few weeks back (iTunes FTW!!) and you can download a couple of tunes for free from noisetrade to sample the album. That's why it's called a sampler.
