All the reviews, all the music, all the formats.
Philadelphia’s constant hitmaker KURT VILE has another batch of hits ready for the world, and it’s due out on March 8th via Matador Records. We figured we might as well get on this one early before everybody else does, so here goes nothin’. Continue reading “Kurt Vile – Smoke Ring For My Halo”
Today we’ve got the second official release from dark-rockers BROTHER GRUESOME, and they’ve broadened their sound a bit for this single. Instead of remaining quiet and hidden in the shadows, they went a bit further and decided to kick up the intensity. This is a much-welcomed decision. Continue reading “Brother Gruesome – Morphine Makes You Comfortable 7″”
The first time I ever read about DOM came through this feature on Pitchfork. Not only is it weirdly interesting, but it’s hilarious. Needless to say, the next course of action was to listen to Dom. Now we’re right here. Continue reading “Dom – Living in America 7″”
Well here it is! Since the release of those two earlier 7″ singles, this thing has been patiently taking it’s time to reveal itself, and now it is upon us. The official release date was just yesterday (the 22nd), so why don’t we check it out? Continue reading “Chain and the Gang – Music’s Not For Everyone”
Mississippi native DEAD GAZE released a new 7″ on Fire Talk records right before the new year, and the music encapsulates a little bit of everything that’s usually bound to catch our ears. Continue reading “Dead Gaze – Take Me Home or I Die Alone 7″”
Here’s something a bit different to kick off the week. If you’ve ever done some crate digging for obscure industrial-pop from the 80’s, then this might be just for you.

Continue reading “Spacemen 3 – Walkin’ with Jesus 12″”
BALKANS are four dudes who hail from the suburbs of Atlanta. These four dudes have been lifelong friends dating back to their days in elementary school, and now many years later they’re releasing their third official 7″ record together, which leads up to a full length due out in May.

PERSONAL & THE PIZZAS are a four-piece band from Hoboken, NJ playing sleazy garage punk with a raunchy attitude. It’s not exactly clear when this 7″ was released, but it came out sometime in 2010 from the Trouble in Mind label based in Chicago. Continue reading “Personal & the Pizzas – I Want You 7″”
2010 saw the first releases from THE BABIES – two equally awesome and charming 7″ records, both crammed with a near five minutes of sun-shining indie pop and dangerously catchy hooks. Now they’re back once again, only this time with a much-needed full length release. Continue reading “The Babies – The Babies s/t”
