Dr Sure's Unusual Practice - "Celebration" | Post-Trash Premiere
Following last year’s excellent BUBBLE (billed as a “mixtape” upon release), the band return with a new proper album, their third full length, Total Reality. Due out April 19th via Marthouse Records and Erste Theke Tontraeger, it’s fair to say that each successive DSUP record is better than the last, and they’ve definitely upped the ante.
Cor de Lux - "Nail Biter" | Post-Trash Premiere
Sometimes it’s the songs with the least intentionality that have the biggest impact. Let loose and see what happens. That would appear to be the case with “Nail Biter,” the latest single from Cor de Lux. Originally recorded during the band’s sessions for last year’s Media LP, they scrapped it without much intention on releasing it.
cootie catcher - "Sound Out The Vowels" | Post-Trash Premiere
Toronto’s cootie catcher are set to tour across Canada this Friday. The band has a pair of hometown shows tonight and tomorrow with a brand new track to boot. “Sound Out the Vowels” is cootie catcher’s latest single for The Cooked Raw Label and the best way for new listeners to dive into the band’s playful and colorful discography.
Dancer - "Change" | Post-Trash Premiere
Outer World - "The Drum The Beat" | Post-Trash Premiere
Life In Vacuum - "Soul Crusher" | Post-Trash Premiere
Toronto punk outfit Life In Vacuum have a full dance card for 2024 so far. Later this month, the Canada-by-Ukraine trio set out for a great big North American tour; a multi-coast trek you don’t see too often nowadays. Before they hit the road, the band has shared their latest ripper “Soul Crusher” via the always reliable Born Losers Records.
Porcelain - "Plastic" | Post-Trash Premiere
With their self-titled album out in just a few weeks, it would seem that Austin’s Porcelain aren’t holding any punches. The band’s first full length, due February 16th via Portrayal of Guilt Records is jagged and rampant, an album that seems to burst at the seams, a missive of explosive peaks and dynamic arrangements.
SAVAK - "Will Get Fooled Again" | Post-Trash Premiere
“Will Get Fooled Again” is the latest single off SAVAK’s upcoming album, Flavors of Paradise, releasing on March 1st. The track courses with a surf rock groove, upon their trademark post-punk, and is laced with minor key guitar lines. “Will Get Fooled Again” provides an ebb of respite from the band members’ backgrounds.
DANA - "Time Suck(s)" | Post-Trash Premiere
Powerwasher - "Same Time / Same Channel" | Post-Trash Premiere
Silt - "Warm Dust" LP | Post-Trash Premiere
Warm Dust, the sophomore album of Silt, takes place in the liminal season where blossoms have yet to defrost, the earliest day of spring. Ben Currotto’s initial vision of stripped, acoustic focus – metaphorically, the aftermath of the 2018 album Cold Clod Breaks Up, was transformed into a dynamic gathering of this new five-piece band.
Late Bloomer - "Hope For Rain" | Post-Trash Premiere
On new single “Hope For Rain,” the band channels the kinetic force that defined their earlier records into a more harmony-saturated, fuzz-laden sound. In the same vein as previously released tracks “Mother Mary” and “Self Control,” their latest single blends melancholic melodies and pedal steel into the group’s usual mix of heavy guitar.
Misery Whip - "Joke" | Post-Trash Premiere
Misery Whip, the hardcore band from Portland, Maine, released their self-titled debut back in 2022, a decimating introduction to band that thrashed between reckless speed and primal density. MWII, the band’s upcoming EP is eight and a half minutes of blistering carnage that feels vital, pointed, piercing, and vicious in its justified scorn.
Mulva - "Ward Them Off" | Post-Trash Premiere
Providence mega group Mulva (members of Kal Marks, Bethlehem Steel, Ex-Breathers, and Baglady) are back with their full-length follow-up to last year’s crushing Seer EP. Bitter Form is due out March 1st via Sad Cactus, and if “Ward Them Off” is any indicator of what’s to come, it’s best to keep an ear out.
Variety - "Plover" | Post-Trash Premiere
Variety, a new band led by Rhys Woodruff (Borzoi, Leche) has arrived. While best known as a drummer/vocalist, he’s moved beyond the kit to write, perform, and record the entirety of Variety’s debut single, equal parts arty punk and deranged alternative rock. “Plover” is a triumphant introduction, a jittery song that feels knotted yet supremely hooky.
Glaring Orchid - "Swimmer" | Post-Trash Premiere
The Philly / New Brunswick band, led by Quinn Mulvihill, have ventured beyond the digital realm into a dense form of swarming shoegaze and layered slowcore. Working together with Tim Jordan (Sun Organ) at Blood Red Sky, Glaring Orchid’s full length debut arrives fully formed, with equal parts graceful nuance and blaring distortion.
Grazia - "Cheap" | Post-Trash Premiere
London duo Grazia are here for the sleaze punks, making clean and rattling garage punk with heavy pop hooks and minimalist structures. Their sound is catchy, indebted both to 80’s new wave and a more radiant KBD sound, each song on their upcoming debut, In Poor Taste, packing a gluey charm that’s hard to resist.
Wesley Wolffe - "Streets" | Post-Trash Premiere
Returning with a teaser for Good Kind, Wesley Wolffe’s new full-length album set to be released January 12, he doubles down in tenacity and charm on his latest single, “Streets”. Grown out of sweaty spontaneity, fractured instrumentations and deliberate angst, “Streets” finds him eerily attuned to the characters around him everyday.
