Your guide to this week’s newest music releases.

In shedding the weight of the past and stepping fully into their independence, alt-rockers Set It Off have redefined themselves. The Los Angeles-via-Florida trio of Cody Carson (vocals), Zach DeWall (guitar), and Maxx Danziger (drums) return with their self-titled record, their first since 2022’s Elsewhere, a bold declaration of creative freedom, evolution, and sincere intent.

Now fully independent and forging their own path, American rock band Set It Off are charging into a bold new era with a new single titled ‘Rotten’. Fueled by thunderous breakdowns, gritty riffs, and powerful vocals, the latest track captures the raw intensity this new incarnation of Set It Off has been building toward.

Bursting out onto the stage and straight into the highly popular “Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing (Reborn)” Set It Off were all smiles and unwavering bouncy energy as the crowd sang along to the lyrics. It’s been a couple of years since we have seen the Florida trio on a London stage, in fact their last headlining performance was in November 2022 so the excitement was palpable as the band made their way into the set.
