“SUFFER IN SILENCE”

GEMINI SYNDROME

Origin: From Nothingness to Everything The Prequel to the LUX Trilogy

Before the LUX trilogy, there was nothing. Now, Gemini Syndrome unveils the origin story—

Origin: From Nothingness to Everything—a prequel that explores the space where transformation begins. More than just an album, it is a ritual, a sonic initiation into the unknown.

While the full experience will arrive later this year, the band is releasing one single at a time, allowing each piece of the puzzle to be absorbed before the full revelation.

Produced by Matt Good, this album is an alchemical process—raw, unfiltered, and designed to transmute chaos into clarity, destruction into rebirth. It is both their heaviest and most beautiful work to date, unconcerned with expectation and dedicated solely to truth.

“This album is about the space before everything,” says drummer -Brian Steele Medina.

“It’s the chaos, the void—where transformation begins. We stopped worrying about what people expected and just made something real, a ritual of transmutation that we want to take our listeners through, step by step. We’re releasing this album one song one at a time because each piece is part of a bigger picture, and we want each one to have a chance to breathe. It’s a journey,” adds guitarist -Meegs Rascón.

Vocalist Aaron Nordstrom continues, “This album is a departure from the norm. We didn’t want to just be loud for the sake of it; we wanted to be true. This is us, unapologetically.”

Brian Steele Medina concludes, “That’s why we’re giving ‘ORIGIN’ to the world in pieces, because each song is part of the story we’re telling—a story of authenticity, chaos, and rebirth. Each one is a piece of the puzzle.”

The album’s sound is forged by the unique contributions of each band member. Meegs Rascón delivers dark, atmospheric guitar work, blending heavy riffs with brooding melodies that push the music’s intensity. AP Paveri’s intricate basslines provide a deep, pulsing foundation, amplifying the album’s relentless energy. Brian Steele Medina commands the rhythm section with thunderous drumming—dynamic, primal, and explosive. At the forefront, Aaron Nordstrom’s vocals shift between haunting vulnerability and searing power, carving a direct emotional connection with the listener. Together, these four forces create a sonic landscape that is both primal and transcendent—a fusion of aggression, introspection, and raw authenticity.

With Origin: From Nothingness to EverythingGemini Syndrome extends an invitation— step into the unknown, embrace the process, and undergo the initiation. Each song serves as a catalyst for personal alchemy, revealing deeper truths along the way.

The doll within is dark, she embraces her inner darkness and travels with her demons who protect her from the ones who seek to take her inner power. She is the key.

PUSHING VERONICA


Unleashes New Hard

Hitting Single

“NOVOCAINE”

Brace yourselves for a sonic explosion

“NOVOCAINE” is here!

PUSHING VERONICA, the powerhouse alt-rock band known for their electrifying sound and boundary-pushing style, has just released their latest single. With blistering guitars, intense vocals, and a pulse-pounding rhythm section, “NOVOCAINE” is set to take over the airwaves and remind the world what hard rock is all about.

“NOVOCAINE”

is a story of the hardships people are facing in today’s world where it seems that no one can get along with each other anymore. Sometimes the only way out of the crazy rigamarole of life is to anesthetize yourself in whatever form may be comforting whether it’s good or bad.

Band Bio:

SoCal alt-rock powerhouse

PUSHING VERONICA first emerged as the brainchild of then-16 year old frontman

Julien Silvås, a lifelong musician who’d already established himself on the scene via a

Warped Tour appearance with his previous band, The Local Rebellion. Fixated on a mission to herald a renaissance in the worlds of pop-punk and rock, Julien continued to grow the lineup — currently consisting of original founding member and bassist Noah Rozansky, guitarist Hunter Kubat, guitarist Daniel Flores and drummer Jason Maser.

Known for their uniquely catchy signature sound, PUSHING VERONICA build on the groundwork laid by legends from Queens of the Stone Age and Rage Against the Machine to Foo Fighters, Nirvana, The Offspring and beyond with an uninhibitedly irreverent approach. Lauded by major outlets like Alternative Press for their “infectious and high-spirited Green Day-like stylings”, the band have continued to grow their diverse and loyal fanbase over 4 US tours and a slew of other electric live performances to date.

Following a string of achievements including collaborating with renowned directors Dean Karr and Brian Cox on music videos and working with Grammy-winning producer Dave Schiffman, PUSHING VERONICA’S momentum is now at an all-time high as they prepare for their most ambitious year yet.

PUSHING VERONICA is emersed in a vote to be on the Ernie Ball Vans Warped Tour Battle of the Bands for a chance to perform on the 2025 Vans Warped Tour main stage and share over $100,000 in prizes.

Plans for extensive national and international touring — as well as for a string of new material — are already on the horizon,

all to be announced in due time.
