Sweatmaster – More! – Music Stream February 15, 2026 With ample cowbell, Sweatmaster return after a 15 year hiatus, and have lost none of their tightly-coiled danger. Finnish garage rock at its finest.
Kreator – Krushers of the World – Music Stream February 4, 2026 Tuned low and mean, the dystopian verses march through a simple, chugging riff, with Mille Petrozza’s unmistakable snarl remaining defiant.
Death Cult – Resurrection Joe (Live) – Music Stream February 1, 2026 The rhythm section rocks as Duffy solos and shimmers, and Astbury lets out a few “whew!”s and “whoa!”s, just like his rock god ’80s incarnation.
Silk Daisys – Haunted House – Music Stream October 12, 2025 It’s dreamy, it’s gauzy, and for a haunt, it’s a pretty friendly one.
Kitchen Lover – There Goes My Brains – Music Stream September 7, 2025 If they were around back then, you might’ve seen them opening for the Cramps or Johnny Thunders.
Bodega/Nodega – Quantify – Music Stream August 31, 2025 Since the band has talent, no matter their sociopolitical views or what they call themselves (Nodega, in this case), both the EP and single are good.
Cracked Mirror Club – Dead End – Music Stream August 24, 2025 Cracked Mirror Club is a one-man show, and this 24-year-old bedroom artist sounds like a bored goth. Or maybe an indie-rock Alan Parsons.
Superchunk – No Hope – Music Stream July 27, 2025 The song, reminiscent of Guided by Voices at their poppiest and most rocking, shows Mac can still construct a tune.
Poorlydrawn – Taillights – Music Stream July 6, 2025 Singer Walker Stiglets can’t figure out if he wants to be Julian Casablancas or Stephen Malkmus, so he splits the difference.
Turnstile – Look Out for Me – Music Stream July 2, 2025 While “Look Out for Me” does have its (fleeting) moments of ripping, processed-sounding guitar, this is glossed-up, radio-friendly stuff.
