THE DEFECT Declare 2025 The Year Of DEATH X DESTINY On Dynamic Debut

When a band drops as many singles as THE DEFECT has on their way to the release of debut full-length DEATH X DESTINY (6 in total dating back to “DEFIANCE” in October of 2023), one might worry that it spoils the plot/takes away from the bigger picture and to that we defiantly say: “Balderdash!” (We’re […]

Dyr Faser Traverse Styles On Genre Fluid Falling Stereos

Dyr Faser, for us, is kind of a “Gotcha!” band as they seemingly drop releases out of nowhere and when they do they’re not only a pleasant surprise but also constantly contain the kind of music that just sticks with you. New release Falling Stereos is no different with 10 [...]

We’re going to be completely honest here: The prospect of covering an artist with the moniker “titsdickass” (Or “TDA” if you’re not comfortable?) pretty much got this New York-based outfit through the door here. Luckily, the music backed up the necessity to share in these pages (And let’s be real, [...]

Sisters Of… Ready First Post-Rawk Must-Have Of 2025 With Undeniably Epic Marie/Michel

It’s funny but sometimes it’s a tough job to put into words when talking up a wholly instrumental album which is probably why we tend to be super picky when one comes our way that’s not local or named Pelican. That said, there was something so expressive and so vibrant [...]
