Local Love: The RNRF Guide To What Your New, Old, And Soon-To-Be Favorites Are Up To In 2025

Not to knock our own format but unlike the more structured setting of our year end lists we’re going to go even loosier! Goosier even! And just kinda blurb it up on here for 2025, okay? So no rankings at all with a simple A-Z format (Unless you count alphabetizing as ranking) of what you […]

Morlocks Enter 2025 Refreshed, Renewed, And Reenergized With New Material In Tow On Amor, Monstra Et Horrore Profundi

We’ll admit that beyond knowing about a guest spot or two on some recent KMFDM outings, we knew little of Sweden’s Morlocks and that’s on us for not investigating more because once we FINALLY caught them live in 2024 (Again with KMFDM) we were hooked! That said, we were super [...]

Singles! Happy Little Clouds, “Higher”

While we already have a pile of 2025 releases in various states of drafts (Because starting pieces when they come in as opposed to procrastinating is a part of a belated resolution we didn’t follow through on last year), we couldn’t think of a better way to start off our [...]

24 in ’24… But Local (Or “Here’s All Those Artists We Suggested You Listen To Throughout 2024 Collected In One Place”)

Being a MA-based outfit and being lucky enough to be a small part of the beautiful music community here we tend to be a little biased when it comes to local artists. Especially when it comes to year end round up’s and rankings! That said, and like last year, we’re [...]
