German rock has a brand-new heartbeat, and it’s pulse-pounding, raw, and unapologetically emotional. After a whirlwind breakout year, the rising five piece, Some Good Moments, have transitioned from rehearsal-room recordings to the polished, haunting depths of their first professionally produced single, ‘Love Is A Graveyard’.
The band first caught the public’s attention in mid-2025 when they snatched second place at the prestigious StarFM Newcomer Rock Award. What made the feat so impressive was their DIY grit; at the time, they were competing with tracks recorded entirely within their own rehearsal space. It was a clear signal to the industry that authenticity and passion often outweigh high-end studio budgets.
Now, with the release of ‘Love Is A Graveyard’, they are proving that their initial success was no fluke. The track is a brooding, dark ballad that captures the claustrophobic feeling of a failing romance. It’s a cinematic experience where the band explores the metaphor of love as a self-inflicted ritual, or as they describe it, "when love feels like digging your own grave."
Musically, the single showcases the band’s signature duality: a balance between fragility and force. Alina’s vocals are the undisputed centrepiece—warm, captivating, and laced with a vulnerability that draws the listener in before the gritty guitars provide a heavy, grounded contrast. It is female-fronted rock that leans into depth and heart rather than just volume.
Formed only earlier this year, the five piece band of André, Tobias, Ron, Michael, and Alina have been on a journey defined by fierce independence. Despite their recent professional production, they’ve maintained a DIY spirit, handling much of their own creative output.
By taking second place in the New Rock Award, the band proved that passion and authenticity can still shake the rock scene. With ‘Love Is A Graveyard’, they aren't just shaking it; they are claiming their place within it. If this is just the beginning for the German outfit, the future looks incredibly bright—and beautifully dark.
