Where do you go when it feels like everything is ending? Mega Bog confronts that idea on End of Everything, a project that dares to take an undaunted look at all things daunting. Its a genre-bending, thunderous trip, defined by explosive choruses, blood-pumping Italo disco bass lines, and songwriting that packs a punch.
Life, and Another is a fourteen-track, 44-minute affair, transmitted with the descriptor, Sci-Fi Pop, and yes, with James Krivchenia of Big Thief producing the sound palette is ripe of the sort. If there is a novum for what Mega Bog is currently accomplishing, then it is found within that synthesis of Birgy’s lyricism and sonic arrangements.
The time to catch up on the unabridged Post-Trash “Year In Review” has come, with releases big and small - albums that went under the radar, the hidden gems, and the essential records from the past twelve months, even a few “buzz” bands and beyond. This is our comprehensive guide to our favorite releases of the year without a pre-determined length.
“The Post-Trash 60” is a guide to some (60) of our favorite releases so far with a diverse range of rock music’s many sub-genres and hip-hop, from extreme metal to lo-fi bedroom pop and all that falls between. We’ve got “buzz bands” worth the buzz, self-released hidden-gems, all the weird international post-punk and noise rock you could ever want, and of course all the artistic punk influenced indie we know and love.
On the latest episode of the Post-Trash podcast we (loosely) explore what makes us listen to a band we’ve never heard before (making it sound way tougher than it truly is) and play new music from Beak>, Greg Electric, Mega Bog, Horse Jumper of Love, Thanks For Coming, USA Nails, Control Top, and Real Blood.
