Shoreline Released New Single And Video

Emo punk/hardcore outfit SHORELINErecently announced their new album, Is This The Low Point Or The Moment After? is due for release on 13th March 2026 on Pure Noise Records and now they release single ‘Youthfully Naive’ as they start their UK tour with label mates Arm’s Length, Koyo and Ben Quad.
 

‘Youthfully Naive’ is about seeing someone you look upto being vulnerable for the first time.  It is a prime example of Shoreline’s songwriting: big choruses, dynamic vocals and heavy guitars.  Even though the band is many generations younger than the genre’s veterans, multiple backing vocals in the chorus harmonising pay tribute to the writing style of some of the greats, all in a fresh context of contemporary emopunk and hardcore. 

Is This The Low Point Or The Moment After? is a concept album that dares the listener to recall the situations in life when you’ve hit rock bottom and consider if you were able to point out the moment from which things got better again? SHORELINE also ask themselves this question and dedicate an entire album to it.  Their new songs undoubtedly propel the band from Münster to the peak of their creative powers: emo and hardcore meet a newfound passion for alternative rock, smart songwriting, and lyrics that go where it hurts.

“There’s a very clear turning point within this album for me – the lowpoint – if you will, from which the mood and songs start to become more hopeful. When I showed the record to our closest friends, everyone told me a different part that they’ve very clearly identified as the(ir) low point. I think that is in equal parts funny but also beautiful.” says Hansol Seung

While its soundscape is very clearly growing from the new wave of emo/HC bands such as One Step Closer, Arm’s Length Or Koyo, it has unmissable references from the unique clash of alternative music scenes in Germany. 

Is This The Low Point Or The Moment After? is showing off a band that has a very clear vision of what kind of music they wanted to write. Big melodies, heavy riffs, but all rooted in a raw, honest take from a DIY Punk perspective.

The band will be touring this month in the UK and EU with label mates Arm’s Length, KOYO and Ben Quad before embrking on a headline run in the Autumn. Full dates below:
