Many Rooms Drops Stunning New Track

Folk Many Rooms

by David Garrick

The music of Houston’s Many Rooms has grown in the short time it’s been around. The songs, written by Brianna Hunt have always had elements of bedroom folk mixed with interpersonal narratives that touch whoever hears them like sad letters that were never delivered. On their latest single “99 Proofs” they quickly capture your attention...More Please

Deer Tick Bring Heat on Mayonnaise

New Music Reviews

by David Garrick

There’s not enough bands going for it anymore it seems. Nowadays, everyone wants to get pigeonholed, placed into a box and become a genre they may not represent. Even when you write about music, or tell someone about music, you’re expected to slap a genre on the artist. That’s why we love Deer Tick, because...More Please

Le Butcherettes Don’t Hesitate on bi/MENTAL

New Music Reviews

Le Butcherettes Rock

by David Garrick

Le Butcherettes have always been a band made up of the viscera. Focused and driven, determined and terse, they’ve never really compromised on their albums and certainly not in their live performances. On their latest album bi/MENTAL, they take all that they’ve done in the past and found a new way to place it all...More Please

Mike Krol is The Indie Rocker We All Need in 2019

New Music Reviews

Indie Rock Mike Krol

by David Garrick

There’s something wrong with your feed, or at least at times it feels that way. When you joined a social media site, you used to see pictures of food and old friends you hadn’t seen in years. Now you just get people complaining and political gripes. In 2019 we should all look to turn over...More Please

Tanukichan Drops New Video Ahead of Tour

Fuzz Pop Tanukicahn

by David Garrick

Last year when Tanukichan dropped her full length album Sundays, we weren’t yet a publication. Though we found the fact that Toro Y Moi and Hannah van Loon played all of the instruments on the album, we were curious as to how she would tour it seeing that he has a tour of his own...More Please

Lionshare Reflects Society in Each Performance

Lionshare Merel & Tony

by David Garrick

The world of immersive theater typically comes in one of two forms, both of which rarely get based around music. For the world to work, those in attendance must allow themselves to be immersed in the world created in the show. When most people go see a concert, they’re in a room of like-minded individuals...More Please

New Screamo Featuring Members of Football, etc. & Rose Ette? Yes, Please

New Music Reviews

Emo Overo Screamo

by David Garrick

We often wonder, can you really trust an artist today that’s not playing in multiple projects? Down in Houston it seems that many or the musicians have the ability to link up and form new projects, so it’s not uncommon to see multiple bands made up of the same people intertwined. We heard kind of...More Please

Amen Dunes Brings Energy & Passion in Person

Amen Dunes Live

by David Garrick

We caught the magic and the passion behind a set from Amen Dunes. Dunes has been going strong since we caught him last year in Marfa, and his live set this time had more energy and emotion than when we caught him over a year ago. Performing a mixture of old favorites alongside a lot...More Please

Sun June Stands Out Among SXSW Offerings

by David Garrick

In a time where there’s tons of music coming out, it’s often difficult to hear everyone. A band we missed last year, mostly because we weren’t a publication yet, was Austin’s Sun June. The band, playing what they refer to as regret pop create some of the most endearing music you’ll get into your ears....More Please

Norway’s Spielbergs Embody Indie Rock and Emo With Ease on New Full Length

New Music Reviews

Indie Rock Spielbergs

by David Garrick

If you lived through the nineties, you had to endure lots of terrible trends in music. If you were lucky though, you followed indie rock and emo close enough to not have to sit through the waves of grunge bands that littered the airwaves in the wake of Nirvana. There haven’t been a ton of...More Please

Blushing Gets Dreamy in New Video for The Truth

Blushing Shoegaze

by David Garrick

For a while now, it’s been pretty evident that few bands can do the shoegaze thing as authentically as Austin’s Blushing. Guitar tones that are washed in a sea of pedals, fuzz and reverb dance all over their songs while the vocals seem to come from apparitions that hover above the instruments. On their latest...More Please

Guilla Drops First Track Off of Upcoming E.P.

by David Garrick

For a while now, the Houston rap game has changed and been changing in new directions. Gone are the days of “bangin’ Screw” and a new era of hip hop has washed over the city. With a slew of new artists like Ugly God & Travis Scott, Houston is still producing plenty of talented and...More Please

Night Beats Don’t Deliver on Myth Of A Man

Night Beats Psych

by David Garrick

Seattle’s Night Beats has always been a band full of psych rock invention, or at least reinterpretation of the early psych rock sound. Where their last album Who Sold My Generation was a tour de force of psychedelic power, their latest album Myth Of A Man is very far from that. Incorporating Dan Auerbach of...More Please

Toro Y Moi Brings Outer Peace & More to Life

Concert Toro Y Moi

by David Garrick

We made it out to catch Toro Y Moi in person, and from beginning to end we were pretty blown away. The energetic show didn’t start off with lots of energy, though the chill atmosphere he created with the opening tracks was more than welcomed by the sold out crowd. Sticking mainly to bangers and...More Please

Groundhog Day Eviscerates on Debut

New Music Reviews

Emo Groundhog Day Punk

by David Garrick

For a long time now, we’ve seen traditional emo and punk criss cross lines where they’re essentially the same thing. Few bands can meld the two together where you can tell the difference, though Houston’s Groundhog Day seem to have figured out how to do just that. On their debut full length, The Worst It’s...More Please

DEGA is More Than a Typical Synth Pop Duo

by David Garrick

In music sometimes, we categorize things too quickly. Sometimes we compartmentalize music into spaces that they can fall into, but they might be so much more than that in ways that are worthy of further exploration. That’s kind of the deal on synth-pop duo, DEGA. A married couple made up of industry veterans, DEGA is...More Please

Dallas’ Fear Gorta Releases Dark Sounds on Edgin

Dallas electronic Fear Gorta

by David Garrick

The Texas electronic scene hasn’t been as bumping in recent years, possibly due to festivals closing up shop or in that the genre hasn’t really been growing in general as of late. Of course, that doesn’t mean there aren’t plenty of artists crafting intriguing sounds, especially in the Lone Star State. Dallas’ Fear Gorta has...More Please

Durand Jones & The Indications Share America’s Morning on New Video

Durand Jones & The Indications Soul

by David Garrick

It seems like Durand Jones & The Indications could be everyone’s favorite new band. Though they’ve been around for a minute now, their soulful sound is one that never gets old, and one we could all use more of. Now with their new album American Love Call due on March 01, they’ve just shared a...More Please

Sneaks Continues to Amaze on Highway Hypnosis

Highway Hypnosis Sneaks

by David Garrick

The punk spirited and hip hop nuanced world that Sneaks inhabits is one of the future. Twenty years ago when artists attempted to meld together genres, they were essentially brushed off. With her latest release Highway Hypnosis, Sneaks continues to tread her own path full of doing whatever she wants and creating magic in the...More Please

Sharon Van Etten Reminds Us Why We Love Her Music

Folk Sharon Van Etten

by David Garrick

For anyone who is unfamiliar, Sharon Van Etten has captivated most who hear her music. It’s not strange to find an artist you like using her name as a reference point, as her music has probably encouraged more to launch careers that many stadium sized performers. On her latest release Remind Me Tomorrow, she proves...More Please
