YEARN – Shapeshifter

YEARN – the seismic new vessel for the unstoppable force that is Lily Minke Tahar – just detonated the title track from their upcoming album, “Shapeshifter”. And holy hell, it’s a stone-cold killer. Tahar, operating as a fierce one-woman wrecking crew (with sharp engineering backup from Sam Wesner), forged the core of “Shapeshifter” in a white-hot week of creation. The spark was Italo […]
Miller Tracy – Love Is Adamant

Turn the dial to obliterate. Miller Tracy ain’t here for subtlety. His new single, “Love Is Adamant”, detonates June 13th, and it arrives less like a song, more like a forced entry – a ferocious blast of garage desperation that perfectly soundtracks the suffocating chokehold of a toxic love you just can’t shake. Following the raw purge of “Creature Comfort,” this […]
Tom Minor – The Manic Phase

Tom Minor – London’s answer to a whiskey-soaked, existential panic attack set to music – just lobbed a four-track Molotov cocktail into the void. “The Manic Phase” is a snarling, soul-drenched odyssey through neon-lit back alleys and crumbling psyches. Produced by Teaboy Palmer (rightly crowned “the Phil Spector of Finchley Road, NW3”), this is chaos with a heartbeat: power-pop hooks mugged by […]
Think Denim, dad – Well (Ain’t It Fun)

Levi Parent, Belgium’s low-key sonic warlock operating as Think Denim, dad, just exploded a grenade of pure, twang-drenched brilliance with “Well (Ain’t It Fun)” (released June 6th). This isn’t like the background coffee-shop indie—it’s a hypnotic, guitar-glazed earworm that sinks its fangs DEEP and doesn’t let go. Parent is NOT strumming chords; he’s conducting musical electricity in a denim vest. […]
Disdarken – Keep The Dark Inside

Strap on your headphones and dim the lights. Tilburg’s shadow-dwellers Disdarken – the formidable duo of Alan V. Niculae and Nick Carmine – are about to plunge you into the abyss. Their new single, “Keep The Dark Inside”, dropped May 25th, 2025, and it’s a haunted, atmospheric detonation forged from a literal nightmare. This is synthwave weaponised, a chilling preview of their debut album […]
Sleeps While Walking – Hollowman

Chicago ain’t sleepwalking – it’s wide awake and snarling. Sleeps While Walking, rightly crowned “the real deal” by A&R Factory, just dropped a new payload of pure, uncut tension. Their single “Hollowman” is a skilfully crafted assault on the senses, a definitive masterclass in their self-styled grungegaze. This track abducts your skull, stares you down, and forces you to […]
Spwci – Flow

Kill off the algorithm sludge clogging your feed – something real is brewing in the Welsh mist. Spwci (yeah, pronounce it “spooky,” it fits) released “Flow“ on May 29th, and trust us, you wanna be braced for impact. This is honesty wrapped in riffs that bite and a rhythm section with terrifyingly good instincts. Consider this your early warning […]

Levi Parent, Belgium’s low-key sonic warlock operating as Think Denim, dad, just exploded a grenade of pure, twang-drenched brilliance with “Well (Ain’t It Fun)” (released June 6th). This isn’t like the background coffee-shop indie—it’s a hypnotic, guitar-glazed earworm that sinks its fangs DEEP and doesn’t let go. Parent is NOT strumming chords; he’s conducting musical electricity in a denim vest. […]
Blueprint Tokyo – Neon Circuits and the Mission of Hope

Oklahoma City’s Blueprint Tokyo is launching a goddamn noise doctrine with “Neon Circuits and the Mission of Hope,” their hotly anticipated 16-track debut full-length album – yeah, a double-album guts move in this ADHD age – out now via Spectra Music. From that first surge of rhythm, you get it: this is a band that’s done simmering. They’ve locked […]
Mortal Prophets – French Summer

Mortal Prophets – the ever-morphing creation of NYC’s John Beckmann – make us wowed time without number. “French Summer” is an 18-track, velvet- smooth, slightly unhinged joyride down the French Riviera. Top down, rules shattered on the Autoroute. Buckle up, buttercup. This is the real deal. Beckmann, the mad scientist behind this operation, has never played by the […]
Desert Man – Love Kills

Sebastian Gäbel is plunging in loud and reckless with “Love Kills” under the moniker Desert Man. Gäbel’s no newbie; he’s a Grammy-nominated guitar wizard from Gothenburg who’s toured with José González and The String Theory – and now? He’s ditching the fancy orchestras (16 albums worth!) and going raw as Desert Man. Desert Man is Gäbel’s tough alter […]
Goddamn Wolves – I Hate This Song

Raleigh’s finest, Goddamn Wolves, are tearing it up with “I Hate This Song”. Don’t let the title fool you – this track is a blistering, infectious shot of pure fire that’ll have you headbanging ’til your neck hurts. It’s the sound of a band hitting its absolute stride, seven years deep and tighter than a […]
