Very very into this acid-trip / mindfuck of a video from Arkansas transport Welles. The underlying song, “Life Like Mineâ€, is a pop gem inspired by the likes of the druggiest era of the Beatles and their ilk. That’s to say, there’s a lot of unexpected instrumentation supporting a wonderfully memorable chorus. (Source: https://www.youtube.com/)
Save the Internet Today, July 12th, is a day of solidarity for companies and users across the Internet to raise their voices to our political leaders to maintain Net Neutrality. The basic gist is that the FCC ruled that the Internet is governed by a set of rules that maintain a level playing field in […]
The Southern Shame – Orion EP The newest release from The Southern Shame, the 7-track Orion EP,  is a ramshacklin’, country infused romp. While certain songs like “Woke Up This Morning†tell macabre tales of murder hangovers, the real treat comes with “The Ballad of Jimmy Ellisâ€, an ode to the Elvis Impersonator of the same […]
Take some time to watch the full KEXP studio performance from All Them Witches in which the band plays a number of selections off their latest album, Sleeping Through the War (and a few from previous releases). They even chit chat a little with host Cheryl Waters about being considered a Nashville band, despite only one […]
Friday, July 14th, Faux Ferocious will release a new EP via Drop Medium Recording entitled, simply, 12″. You can hear two of the three tracks, “Solvency†along with “Me and Jonnyâ€, over on Soundcloud and I highly recommend you do. It’s not a NEW sound for the band but it’s a sensible growth from their previous releases; […]
The Lees of Memory - The Blinding White Of Nothing At All If you don’t recall, The Lees of Memory is John Davis & Brandon Fisher from Superdrag along with Nick Slack from SLACK. They make a unique blend of pop, psych and shoegaze. For a refresher, just listen to Unnecessary Evil. Currently, they are rounding […]
Volume 88 One would think that Summer would signal a lighter load of releases but the opposite seems to be the case as lots of great, bigger name, albums are coming down the pipe. This Volume of the podcast covers a handful of the larger titles and makes sure to mix in a few new-comers […]

Goddamnit there’s something refreshing about Unbridled Big Riff Rock. From the grotesquely illustrated album art (fresh out of medieval fantasy) to the irresistible driving nature of the music, Hogan’s Goat seems to have it figured out. There’s tones of ZZ Top and early Queens of the Stone Age pulsating through this and I’m looking forward […]
ICYMI over the break, Tristen dropped another video for “Got Some†off her forthcoming Sneaker Waves album, due this Friday, July 7th. Aside from being one of the highlight tracks of the album, the video features Tristen, Caitlin Rose, Lauren Gilbert, Shelly Colvin and Nikki Darlin having a sleepover romp. (Source: https://www.youtube.com/)
Short and sweet, this little looping EP from Tape Space is absolutely delightful and perfect for your summer goodness playlist. Bonus, there’s a song called “Biscuits†that sounds like a fusion of hold music and upbeat Soul Jams extolling the South’s finest food export.

Like any good side project, it’s an exploration of different musical styles and curiosities that may not fit the main gig. The initial Woodsplitter offering, Egyptian Overload, is an eclectic grabbag of metal mixed with […]
