Post-Punk Punk shame

by David Garrick

Post-punk with punk tendencies kin of feels like the new genre as of late.

Atlanta Faye Webster

It seemed pretty likely that a solid label would pick up the folky sounds of Atlanta’s Faye Webster at some point. Webster has made quite the name for herself as a singer songwriter, as a photographer, and as an artist immersed in the hip hop world of Atlanta. Now, signed to Secretly Canadian, Webster has...More Please

Power Trip & Ceremony Lay Waste To Dallas

Ceremony Power Trip Punk

Hearing someone say that a show is a “once in a lifetime” event, gets thrown around a lot today. The truth is that many people say that though the event is just another show.

Seattle soul darlings The Dip have built a solid following over the last four years, taking their undeniably great live show all across the US since the release of their debut album in 2015.

bonny Doon Tour Waxahatchee

by David Garrick

Being an indie rock artist in today’s world can be stressful and busy life. Many artists are touring more to make up for the fact that album sales aren’t where they used to be.

The Regrettes Release Anti-Kavanaugh Track

Punk The Regrettes

by David Garrick

The Regrettes may be a youthful band, but that doesn’t mean they’ll be silent. The punk trio just dropped an anthem of sorts in response to the antics of Brett Kavanaugh, and it’s pretty glorious. With “Poor Boy,” the three piece has no problem letting abhorrent men know that their time is up. The lyrics...More Please

Indie Rock The Wheel Workers

There was a time when bands weren’t attempting to drop an album full of potential singles, when bands stood up against their oppressors, and when artistry was about the way you crafted a song and not how many followers you had on social media. For about eight years, Houston’s The Wheel Workers have clawed their...More Please

Whenever you read about Detroit’s Bonny Doon, the term “alt-country” seems to come up. While the band has country notations, it’s really closer to indie rock noodling at a twee pace. Whatever you’d refer to them as, their most recent record Longwave is masterful from beginning to end, and one that you’ll probably fall for...More Please

Panda Bear Gets Wet on Dolphin

Panda Bear is not going to do what you’d expect, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that his new single “Dolphin” off of his upcoming album Buoys, doesn’t really sound like his earlier works. Where he typically has this driving undercurrent of sound, “Dolphin” is chill and takes its time, perhaps signaling what the full...More Please
