“Since November” by The Ghost Rodents delivers a soulful elegy wrapped in rock nostalgia
In honor of Florence Bowman, lead vocalist Michael Bowman penned a heartfelt ode to his late mother. The Ghost Rodents present a compelling auditory experience with their latest single, “Since November.” This love letter to a cherished memory encapsulates raw emotion that’s impossible to ignore, serving as a poignant tribute infused with elements of rock reverence.
The single draws inspiration from the enduring legacies of esteemed musical bands such as the melodic sensibilities of The Beatles, the emotional depth characteristic of Led Zeppelin, and the energetic punch associated with the Foo Fighters, effectively merging emotive lyrics with the band’s echoes of timeless melodic intensity. From the initial notes, listeners are enveloped by soulful guitar riffs and a rhythm section that offers stability, reflecting the memories preserved within the song. Bowman’s vocal delivery embodies an earnest fragility, articulating the universal experience of loss while rendering it profoundly personal.
Recorded at Excelcia Studios in Cranford, New Jersey, under Bowman’s meticulous guidance, the production allows every note to breathe, resonating with sincerity and expansiveness. The ensemble, comprising guitarist Rich Picinich, bassist David Aschenbrand, Phillip Buldo, Kevin Resendez, and Scotty “The Body” Zillito, brings the heartbeat that anchors the track to life with precision and enthusiasm. Collectively, they create a soundscape representing a cathartic experience for the listeners and a transformative process for the artists.
Transcending a mere dynamic tribute, “Since November” exemplifies music’s capacity to facilitate healing and foster connection. This composition resonates with anyone who has experienced love and loss, demonstrating that while grief may evoke suffering, it can concurrently inspire exceptional beauty. The Ghost Rodents have firmly established their place within the emotional spectrum of rock music, emerging as a band deserving of attention and recognition for their authentic artistry.

“Boom” by Chandra explodes with energy and in-depth storytelling
“Boom” is Chandra’s second single of 2026, and it’s the kind of moment when emotion, energy, and cosmic interest collapse into each other, delivering you a pop-rock sensation that is at once intimate and grand.
“Boom” settles into a steady sequence with the driven bass of Chris Wong and lead-guitar fireworks from Mike Paul. The production plays back-and-forth, the verses are cool and collected, and in the choruses, everything bursts into high, emotional sounds. The lead singer, Chandra Nair, sings in a way that feels quite personal yet speaks to everyone. He sings with a sense of wonder that matches the song’s central idea of soulmates wandering through an infinite cosmos to meet. It has a spiritual nature underneath all that, a sense of fate wrapped in heavy metaphor.
“Boom” is a song you think about and sing along to. The band leans into celestial and elemental imagery, contributing to a resonance. Chandra continues to make a name for themselves in contemporary pop-rock by balancing self-reflection with energy. Beyond being a song you want to hear, it demands you feel it, and the echo lingers well.
