After fifteen years of radio silence that felt more like a prison sentence for the Midwest punk scene, The Arrivals have finally dropped ‘Payload‘, and it hits with the subtle grace of a brick through your apartment window. Released on Recess Records, this isn’t just a nostalgia trip for aging scenesters; it’s a snarling, sophisticated […]

Warmer Than Gold by GUV
Ben Cook (the man formerly known as Young Guv) suddenly stopped flooding your Bandcamp feed with double albums, the answer is finally here: he was busy reinventing himself as a Britpop deity who somehow sounds more British than the actual British. Released a little over a month ago on Run For Cover Records, Warmer Than […]
Borrowed Time by Mod Lang
In a world where most bands treat their debut like a sacred text, Detroit’s Mod Lang seems to have approached their latest release, ‘Borrowed Time’ with the breezy confidence of someone who just found a twenty-dollar bill in a pair of old jeans. This record is a masterclass in making the “not trying too hard” […]

New song… New album… New Tour for Austin’s Touch Girl Apple Blossom
Austin’s Touch Girl Apple Blossom seems to have realized that if you’re going to name your band something that sounds like a boutique artisanal soap, you’d better have the melodies to back it up—and on ‘Graceful’, they absolutely do. This record is the sonic equivalent of finding a pristine 1994 indie-pop cassette in the glove […]

Happy New Year!! We finally made it back from the holidays and since the world is not over yet… we are back again… and it’s cold as hell out! Don’t worry about us though… we had more than enough whiskey to keep us warm on this show. Maybe too much. We also want to make […]
