Shoreline – have released the new single/video ‘Pardox Man’

Münster Germany–  Emo punk/hardcore outfitSHORELINEwill release their new album, Is This The Low Point Or The Moment After? on 13th March 2026 on Pure Noise Records.

“PARADOX MAN” the song is sitting right in between influences from TOUCHE AMORE to German hardcore/alternative icons FJORT and represents the heavier side of the record. 

The track speaks about the realisation that the state of your mental health can be ever-changing and problems often don’t occur overnight but in a slow process. 

“This is the first song in a long time, where I have to leave the room when it gets played loudly with other people present,” says Hansol Seung.  “It is so brutally honest, I haven’t even fully realised that all my friends and family are going to hear this and probably ask questions about it.” (Hansol Seung)
“I’m not depressed, I’m just a bit overworked.
I’m not depressed, I’m just a bit tired”

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.
