Spiral XP - "Free Thinking" | Post-Trash Premiere
Since the release of Spiral XP’s debut EP, the Seattle band have moved around, swapped members, and navigated the obstacles that life will throw at you. The Max Keyes (Versing) led shoegaze quintet have come out the other side with It’s Been A While, due out February 17th via Danger Collective Records (Spirit Was, Emily Yacina, Red Ribbon).
Feast of the Epiphany - "Significance" | Post-Trash Premiere
Nick Podgurski has developed a wide grip on experimental music over the years, producing music often challenging and thought-provoking. Feast of the Epiphany is both, but it’s also enchanting, with its hooks deep into art-pop and prog rock majesty. The scope of the project is enormous but the collective work to contain it with orchestral grace.
Buck Gooter - "Burning Glass" | Post-Trash Premiere
Ending Buck Gooter upon Terry Turtle’s tragic passing would have gone against everything that made them a DIY dynasty, and if anything, Billy Brett’s desire to honor his lifelong friend’s wishes to “keep on playing my music” will drive the project further. Case in point, Ghost Brain, their upcoming album, due out April 4th, on Turtle’s 71st birthday.
Debt Rag - "Cognitive Whirlpool" | Post-Trash Premiere
While their bio makes it clear they aren’t here to rest on their past achievements, this ain’t their first rodeo, and when your past work includes Grass Widow, Preening, and Girlsperm, it’s worth noting. Past aside, Max Nordile, Lillian Maring, and Marissa Magic come together as one throughout Lost To The Fantasy, their debut LP.
The Eurosuite - "BODY" | Post-Trash Premiere
The Eurosuite (mems USA Nails, Nitkowski) return with Sorry, a new record due out March 3rd via Human Worth, an album that feels like a sonic tour-de-force with the intention of rearranging our brains like a jolt of electricity to the skull. Lead single “BODY” doesn’t exactly build tension but instead arrives at full blast, already deep in the carnage.
Jean Mignon - "Rebel Ryder" | Post-Trash Premiere
Florry - "Cowgirl In A Ditch" | Post-Trash Premiere
Florry has grown from a quartet to a septet, upping the guitars while adding fiddle, pedal steel, and additional vocals, adding muscle to their twang with as much weight to the easy going structures as the impeccable lyrics. Led by Francie Medosch, Florry return with Sweet Guitar Solos, a new EP due out via Dear Life Records.
Mulva - "Shouldn't Fear The Seer" | Post-Trash Premiere
We’ve been eager to hear exactly what Christina Puerto (Kal Marks, Bethlehem Steel) has been cooking up with Mulva. Pulling together a band of frequent collaborators, she’s joined by Carl Shane (Kal Marks), Adam Berkowitz (Ex-Breathers), and Patrick Ronayne (Bethlehem Steel, Baglady), creating an instant chemistry for their downward sludge.
The Drin - "Venom" | Post-Trash Premiere
Patter - "Tanking" | Post-Trash Premiere
No one loves a bloated rock star “supergroup” but everyone loves a DIY community “supergroup” or if you prefer, a new band featuring familiar faces, each of whom make great music. Patter falls into that latter category, a trio comprised of Seth Engel (Options), Wilson Brehmer (The Knees, Jodi) and Joe Suihkonen (The Deals, Gentle Heat).
Corker - "Lice" | Post-Trash Premier
Cincinnati’s Corker first introduced themselves with A Bell That Seems To Mourn, their debut EP, released in the Fall of 2021 via Future Shock. They’ve since joined the ranks of Feel It Records (Flea Collar, Smirk, Delivery) and are set to release their full length debut album later this Summer, but they have a new single and tour dates before that!
Jeff Tobias - "Self-Portrait in a Convex Mirror" Video | Post-Trash Premiere
"Self-Portrait In A Convex Mirror,” one the album’s many highlights, is a radiant ballad, with augmented synths really setting a stunning foundation before the rhythm arrives, snapped into place with a steady beat and syrupy groove. The video, directed by Tobias, opens like a one-man show, with the stage set for him to approach the mic.
Historically Fucked - "Seven Eggs For Seven Sisters" | Post-Trash Premiere
Manchester’s Historically Fucked arrive in a state of hysteria almost immediately. It’s really quite something how fast their music crumbles to pieces. Joining a rare breed of bands that include perhaps PRE, Mi Ami, Melt-Banana, and US Maple, the band reside in a space where impulse, chaos, and lunacy meet head-on.
Thousandaire - "Coward" | Post-Trash Premiere
Hearts In Exile - "Language Is The House" | Post-Trash Premiere
In the years since we last heard from Graham Brouder, he’s returned to Virginia, this time situating in Richmond, and the music that he previously wrote solo has turned into a new band, Hearts In Exile. With a self-titled album in the works, the band introduce themselves over the jangly crawl of the record’s lead single, “Language Is The House”.
Gut Health - "Electric Party Chrome Girl" EP | Post-Trash Premiere
The Melbourne post-punk outfit creates flashing art pop and whip-smart dance grooves, pulling influence from its members’ backgrounds in jazz, punk, and rave culture. Electric Party’s sub-three minute tracks cut to the chase, sticking to a superb, hip-shaking formula while taking subversive, non-adhesive notes from no wave.
EIEIEIO - "Mower" | Post-Trash Premiere
With brevity always at the forefront, EIEIEIO create tangled music that never feels grandiose or overthought. Everything seems off the cuff, potentially combustible from one moment to the next. Following a split with Gorgeous, EIEIEIO return with “Gentleman Stop!”, a new cassette due out December 2nd via Sad Cactus Records.
Labrador - "Guy With A Job (That Nobody Wants)" | Post-Trash Premiere
Philly’s Labrador make alt-country music to lift you up. It’s not always bubbling with positivity, but they’re here to remind you you’re not alone, and that good times are just around the bend. They take those sentiments to heart on Hold The Door For Strangers, the follow-up to 2020’s A Car That Works EP.
Plan Pony - "Can't Say, Won't Say" | Post-Trash Premiere
Plan Pony, a solo project turned duo built on caterwauling saxophone and harsh electronics, skews closer to noise music than noise “rock” music. With several releases over the past couple years, they’re set to share their latest, the Flocking EP, out today via Nim Brut. The pair obliterate senses with “Can’t Say, Won’t Say,” the album’s centerpiece.
