TV Priest Bridge The Gap Between Post-Punk Generations On Ostentatious Uppers

2 February 2021 By jesse Leave a Comment

TV Priest is that missing piece between newer school Post-Punk luminaries Coliseum or Radio 4 and legends like Gang Of Four. Add in a front person who has a penchant for non-sensical barking sermons in the vein of Clutch’s Neil Fallon or Nick Cave and you have yourself the makings of one very fine collection of truly unique modern Rawk.

Sarin Cathartically Crush On Riveting You Can’t Go Back

1 February 2021 By jesse Leave a Comment

I feel like there’s a lot of records we’ll be hailing as “must-hear” especially this soon after leaving that shitshow of a year in the rearview. Sarin’s aptly-titled upcoming record, You Can’t Go Back, is definitely one of those kinds of artists giving this reviewer the same feelings as listening through Isis’ Oceanic for the first time.

Werewolves Get Faster And Furiouser With Shreddy Sophomore Sojourn What A Time To Be Alive

28 January 2021 By jesse Leave a Comment

Once in a blue moon (Or once in a full moon?)…or more like once every month or two comes an album that’s so out of my normal listening frequencies that just hits. Recently, albums from Lord Mantis and Cattle Decapitation wrecked my ears with collections of aural carnage that Werewolves looks to repeat with their latest here in 2021.

The Luka State Deliver 2021’s First Must-Have Rawk Masterpiece With Fall In Fall Out

27 January 2021 By jesse Leave a Comment

On Fall In Fall Out, The Luka State manage to manufacture some legit lightning in a bottle with a record that’s just as massive and groundbreaking as some of the early works and debuts from artists like The Subways, The Von Bondies, The Strokes, and The Hives (Basically all the “The” bands of the mid-aughts).

Zeahorse Pack A Post-Punk Prog Punch On Let’s Not (And Say We Did)

27 January 2021 By jesse Leave a Comment

It’s not often we get a promo and the RIYL or FFO “Read If You Like” and “For Fans Of”) really nails it but in the case of Sydney’s Zeahorse, the comparisons to Helmet, Quicksand, and Fugazi are pretty spot on especially after listening through their latest, Let’s Not (And Say We Did).

Singles! War On Alexandria, “California”

26 January 2021 By jesse Leave a Comment

It seems like almost every other week we’re getting new music from War On Alexandria and that suits us just fine because in an age where newer bands introduce themselves to the masses with a slew of singles that are basically variations on the same theme, it’s refreshing to hear the Boston-based quartet offer up something new each and every time they drop another piece of sonic art.

Singles! A Cause In Distress, “Modern Commerce”

22 January 2021 By jesse 1 Comment

As a primer to prepare to sit down and listen to the latest single from A Cause In Distress I took it upon myself to listen to their previous one, “Lumbering”, over and over. And over and over again. And over some more (Okay, like five times in a row tops). You know, for research. And also because that debut single from the Southend trio is still so effing good (Read our review here). So, you can guess where the expectations are for “Modern Commerce”, yeah?

JASON BIELER AND THE BARON VON BIELSKI ORCHESTRA Prepare For The End With Heavy Songs For The Apocalypse

20 January 2021 By jesse Leave a Comment

Jason Bieler is a godsend, okay? And he’s the gift that keeps on giving on any gloomy day, never mind the shit sandwich of a year that we’re just now barely crawling out of. And more importantly, he’s got a brand new record ready for release called Songs For The Apocalypse and, to be frank, if this is what the apocalypse does indeed sound like then sign us up!
