Moruga Scorpio – 1 Just recently I was lamenting a lack of new Evan P Donohue in my life and, lo and behold, now there’s a new EP from his brand new band, Moruga Scorpio, available for our collective streaming pleasure. The EP, entitled 1,  i is a scant three tracks but largely features a breezy, […]

Lieutenant Howdy – Howdy

I don’t know anything about Lieutenant Howdy beyond what I can glean from their Bandcamp profile. They look young. They have amusing but not-too-silly song titles. They list a myriad of genre influences like Shoegaze, Noise Punk and Post Hardcore amongst their discoverable tags. And, frankly, they deliver on those influences. I’d say it’s a […]

R Stevie Moore + Jason Falkner – Make It Be

Back in 2014, R Steve Moore released an album made in collaboration with Jason Falkner – best known for his work in Jellyfish and AIR. The album was posted on Bandcamp for a few days and then disappeared. Fortunately, Bar None Records took note and the album has officially resurfaced. It is now available for […]

Adia Victoria – How It Feels Adia Victoria just released a brand new EP featuring three memorable covers and one new track. Oh, and every track is in French. The first three tracks are known for their association with Serge Gainsbourg, France Gall and Francois Hardy but all carry the creepy, foreboding tone that’s Victoria […]

BT Indoor Soccer

Can we all agree to work together to make this 1 minute, 20 seconds worth of music a known entity in the Nashville scene?

Daddy Issues “In Your Head”

Listen to the first track off of Daddy Issue’s debut album, Deep Dream, available via Infinity Cat on May 19. You can read more about the track on The FADER or The Cream or just dive right in to the catchy grunge number.

All Them Witches – Sleeping Through the War

If you didn’t catch it, the new full-length from All Them Witches was unveiled last Friday (Feb 24th). After months of teaser songs and anticipation the eight song beast is released and, thus far, it does not disappoint. As with much of their previous releases, it’s a slow burn of tension, dark vibes and long […]

Kristoff Waltz – and so on.

From the sound of the posting, Kristoff Waltz is not long for this world. They released a great EP in Feb 2016 and a Christmas Compilation in December but not a whole lot in the realm of new, original, output. It’s a shame because the Innocents EP was a promising one. All lamenting aside, they’ve […]

Evan P Donohue – Rhythm&Amplitude (Demos)

It’s been three years since Evan P Donohue released his last album, Stairway to Evan, and seven years since his first, Rythm&Amplitude. In the absence of new goodness, I’ve turned to his Rhythm&Amplitude Demos that are posted up on Bandcamp. I’m a sucker for a demo recording and these deliver more than just something else […]

Lillie Mae “Over the Hill and Through the Woods”

Solo artist Lillie Mae has been, up to this point, known mostly for her contributions to other projects – namely as a multi-instrumentalist for Jack White’s backing band. She’ll be releasing her solo album, Forever and Then Some, on Third Man Records on April 14th, which you can pre-order here. Long story short, the first […]

Happy Little Trees – We Are Little

Dan Sommers is a man of many projects – Hotpipes, POLY, My So-Called Band, Jay Leo Phillips and The 20th Century and that’s just the few I know of. He also releases his own solo creations as Happy Little Trees; which now has an official sophomore album, release date and preview streams. Swing over to […]

Anchor Thieves – The Nova Riches

Last Friday, Feb 17th, Anchor Thieves released a new 3-song EP entitled The Nova Riches. The distinctive vocal style is as present and pleasant as usual but the music contained within these twelve minutes shows a band growing and exploring new territory. Whereas before they would deliver a 3-minute wallop of indie rock fueled energy, […]
