Album Review

There’s something uniquely modern about getting your music pulled from streaming because of a producer dispute and responding not with a vague Instagram Story but with, essentially, “Fine. I’ll do it myself.” That’s the energy powering the self-titled EP from TRXPSCO, a project born out of frustration, stubbornness and a crash course in DIY beat-making. […]

I’m just going to straight out say it. Classical music is not my jam. I’m not that immersed in the culture, thus giving myself the nickname of the “alternative guy,” but Michelle Lynne’s album, ‘One Step at A Time’, proved otherwise. Let me discuss this in depth and read why Michelle Lynne will be a

Trainwreck Boyfriend began the way many modern indie bands do: not through a classified ad or a carefully plotted industry plan, but through a moment of shared recognition in a crowded room. The members first connected at two 2023 shows by The Beths, bonding over their mutual devotion to female-fronted indie rock that balances vulnerability

There’s something quietly defiant about Suicidal Strain before you even press play. In an era where most records are engineered for playlists and algorithmic survival, Add Zedd positions this as a full-length album in the old sense of the word: a complete emotional arc meant to be absorbed, not skimmed. It is not built for

There is a very specific kind of artist who makes you feel like they are constantly in the middle of figuring themselves out in public, and somehow that’s the whole appeal. Not in a messy, “I uploaded my demo folder by accident” way, but in a deliberate, ongoing process of refinement. Tyson Dickert has quietly

There is a very specific emotional phenomenon that happens when the weather gets cold. Suddenly, everyone becomes reflective. Playlists get sadder. Text messages get longer. Memories you thought were safely archived in your brain’s “Do Not Reopen” folder start aggressively resurfacing. And into this seasonal emotional chaos steps Marzoña with Love Songs For Colder Weather,

With Loose Omens, Absinthe Vows have very clearly decided that “making a normal album” is not on the table, locked in a drawer, and thrown into the sea. This is a double album, which in 2026 is already a mildly unhinged act of confidence. This isn’t a victory lap or a retrospective or a playlist

Let’s get this out of the way first: Arsenal of Democracy by Energy Whores is not here to vibe politely in the background while you fold laundry. This album wants your attention, your discomfort, and ideally your blood pressure. Energy Whores, the New York–based DIY project led by Carrie Schoenfeld with guitarist Attilio Valenti, have

Gwynn Davies’ new project The Definition of Insanity, A Commodity, A Human Being, arrives with the kind of title that already feels like it’s squinting at the state of the world and asking, “Okay, but are we doing this on purpose?” It’s long, it’s slightly unwieldy, and it immediately tells you that this is not

21 Grammi feels like stepping inside someone’s mind, unfiltered and alive. The album drifts between memory, desire, chaos, and fragile hope. Every track is a world on its own, but together they trace a thread of vulnerability, urgency, and longing. The album doesn’t guide you gently, it throws you into experiences, emotions, and reflections, leaving
