We have entered the 25th year of this website, Indie Vision Music and I am celebrating by launching a killer new merch collaboration through MerchYeah.com/indievisionmusic. What originally began during the dot com bubble (and subsequent crash) as a simple independently minded, underground Christian music webstore in the year 2000 has morphed into the magnificent creature it is today (heavy on the winky face). I started this site out of my love for music, my faith, and being the promoter I was (I began booking my first shows at 17 in 1996), I wanted to get involved and do something different, unique.… Continued →

The artist known as Ben S Dixon a multi instrumentalist and songwriter from the Northern Virginia area, just dropped his intense and heavy new song “Moths & Rust” which based off the verses in Matthew 6: 19-21.

Check out the track below and listen/stream wherever you get your music. (The lyrics are also on the YouTube video page so be to visit and check those out).… Continued →

The day has finally arrived and I am happy to announce that the Tooth & Nail Records 30th Anniversary Vinyl Box Set has arrived! UnoriginalVinyl and T&N have poured over some precious blood, sweat, and tears trying to make this box set a reality and the quality and attention to detail is unmistakable.

Some of Tooth & Nail’s most adored very early year releases like Wish For Eden “Pet the Fist”, Focused “Bow”, Blenderhead “Prime Candidates for Burnout”, Starflyer 59 “She’s The Queen”, and The Blamed “Frail”, are all included.… Continued →

The Myriad are on a role with new music since they came back from the dead. This is the band’s 3rd new single in a year! I would go out on a limb and say that this new stuff blows away anything they’d done prior, years in the past. Beautiful stuff and really catchy in a somber, soothing manner. Check out “Ghost On a Wire” below this post in lyric (simulation) video format and let us know what you think. You can also catch an interview with Jeremy & Scott of The Myriad on The Rumors are TRUE!… Continued →

Light The Way are back with another new music video for a song off their brand new full length record, “Expel”.

A new pop-punk band by the name of TAKEHEART with a definite Christian lyric center which is really cool and gives this a slight worship bent. Similar lyrically to bands like Light The Way, Homeplate, No Treaty, Take, Then It Ends, James Franchise, and other indie acts that aren’t afraid to share their spiritual center and love for Jesus but with music that doesn’t suck. This post is about a new band by the name of TAKEHEART and their brand new track “History” that you can listen to below.… Continued →

Well, we have reached that year end event, the time in which Indie Vision Music posts their “Best of Lists” for the world to see. 2024 was a tumultuous year and one filled with plenty of heartbreak and tragedy for myself of which I am still recovering from in the form of grief and trauma. As much as there were lows (I’m talking low lows), there were some definite highs and highlights I might say in the form of music. Albums and EPs plastered this year, many of which have entered my year end best of list.… Continued →

Newly signed to Fair Vaux Records, the duo known as Gypsy & Me have just dropped their 2nd new single for 2024 and this one is one heck of an emotional whirlwind. The song is titled “Ain’t Done With You Yet” and has literally come out of nowhere for me. I wasn’t expecting such a pleasurable listening experience and I don’t know why I had low expectations going in. Maybe I was in the dumps emotionally during this holiday season and thinking of Gypsies in my mind I was reminded of some commune loving hippies or something.… Continued →

A heavy metalcore act that mixes djent and some singing parts by the name of THEN IT ENDS, just dropped their brand new full length titled “Closure”. What a way to close out the year of releases and a beautiful representation of the heavy genre mixed with seeking, honesty, and a cry out to God for his love and forgiveness like lyrics. If you’re looking for another IT band to listen to, these guys are them. I’m really digging No Treaty and Then It Ends (among a handful of other great new acts).… Continued →

It’s definitely not Sus, it’s the bussin IVM DAD Series of Playlists, available exclusively on Spotify for your listening enjoyment. Remember, every stream of a song is like a breadcrumb in these artist’s hands. Now THAT’s SUS! Seriously though, giving these songs a play through the playlists does help in some small way with not only exposure for (some) these smaller, indie minded artists but can also be rewarding in monetary means. Let’s get these songs millions of plays so follow these playlists and share with friends and family.… Continued →

After bursting onto the scene with TWO EPs this year, Sower has been quickly paving the way for biblically-literate rock. But with “Hollywood”, Sower sets the stage for a different direction. The track is still anchored in Scripture, but the text is applied to our particular moment of cultural chaos – and the ways professing Christians buy into the lies of our age. “Hollywood” is not shy to cover these sins by name, reminding believers of the ugliness and destruction which follows them. The track is the first taste of an upcoming album on discernment, and it certainly sets the bar high.… Continued →

This band is heavy in content (and sound) dealing with childhood trauma and it’s aftermath. It’s an honest and powerful take on a subject that a lot of people run away from talking about. Give this band Static Ultra and their new song “Ghosts” a fair listen, below right here on our website.… Continued →

Israeli based band – Miqedem, have returned with a very special LIVE album titled “Live In Tel Aviv“. This international genre bending, indie-world music band has been playing and recording music for a decade or more and have garnered fans from all over the globe. Their unique music is hard to describe and hard to paste a title on. It’s one of those things you just need listen to yourself and let the music surround you like a warm blanket on a cold night camping out under the stars.… Continued →

Teeth For Eyes return with their debut full length record, “Mines Along The Strand” via The Charon Collective. It’s a high powered, adrenaline laced, solid slice of punk rock n’ roll. The band features members of a variety of indie and punk rock legends in their own right and the sounds found on this record certainly encompasses that experience that only well-seasoned musicians can bring you. This isn’t a dated sounding album nor is it a rehash of the past, this is a legitimately great set of songs that will have you swooning and singing along with, in no time at all.… Continued →

My friends in Light The Way return with another music video from their critically acclaimed new album “Expel”, and this track is titled “As If You Could Outrun Me”. This new record is the absolute best thing the band has ever done up until now. I was going to write a review but that will have to wait and instead they will be featured heavily, like high up, towering above, near the tippy top, for Brandon’s very own, “Best of 2024 List” coming soon to a (touch)screen near you!… Continued →

Today’s new music introduction is in a slightly different direction than the standard heavy music fare IVM is well regarded for, but this artist is certainly deserving of exposure and interest. Our music introduction post today is for an artist by the name of Allison Eide. Allison has been making music for a couple years and recently exploded in views and has become somewhat of a viral sensation through her uncompromising lyrics and creative take on pop music from a Christian viewpoint. Give a couple of her newer songs a listen below especially her hit track “Liar (Truth Is)”.… Continued →
