Bush Tetras - "Rhythm and Paranoia: The Best of Bush Tetras" | Album Review
Palm Friends - "The Delivery" | Album Review
Palm Friends’ music has an easy sound to the ear, with each song stepping into another direction, while keeping it recognizable. It’s a hard thing to do across two or three separate releases, let alone within a single EP. Yet, that is exactly what the Minneapolis quartet have done on The Delivery, their latest record.

A. Billi Free & The Lasso Discuss Their Collaborative Album "Holy Body Roll" | Feature Interview
Holy Body Roll is a groove-filled guidebook for healing, the soundtrack to help you move from tear-streaming breakdown to full-body boogie. The first collaborative album from Michigan multi-instrumentalist/producer The Lasso and New Mexico-based vocalist/emcee A. Billi Free is a quest for self-realization and self-preservation.
Delia Meshlir - "Calling The Unknown" | Album Review
Twine - "Same Old Problems" | Post-Trash Premiere
Hailing from Adelaide, Twine are set to release their second single, “Same Old Problems” on April 1st, a song that’s built on tension. The band’s sound is best described as a mix of emotional post-hardcore and atmospheric arrangements, bringing to mind a place somewhere between We Were Promised Jetpacks and Dirty Three.
Motherhood - "Ripped Sheet" | Post-Trash Premiere
New Brunswick’s Motherhood are back. The Canadian outfit’s just-announced Winded follows up 2019’s Post Trash-approved Dear Bongo. Today, we’re excited to premiere the video for “Ripped Sheet,” the upcoming record’s most clear cut punk number that follows lyricist Brydon Crain’s progression toward sobriety, happiness and “dry land.”

Bedbug - "Bedbug" | Album Review
The tape features reworkings of hit bedbug tracks spanning six years that make the most of classic four-piece rock band instrumentation. While the halcyon bedroom pop days of multi-tracked guitars and fuzzy synths may be behind the project, there is no need to mourn; bedbug’s singular approach to diaristic songwriting suits indie rock well.
Oh Boland - "Cheap Things" | Post-Trash Premiere
With the band set to hit the road next month together with Protomartyr, seems the time is right for a new record, which brings us to Cheap Things. Due out April 8th, the album was written years ago while on tour in the US, but due to moves across Ireland and life getting the way, Niall Murphy and co. never released the record… until now.
Maneka - "Dark Matters" | Album Review
Boldy James & The Alchemist - "Super Tecmo Bo" | Album Review
Widowspeak - "The Jacket" | Album Review
Battle Ave - "I Saw The Egg" | Post-Trash Premiere
With four singles out in the world already, from the haunting “Core” and the breezy “Fool,” to the acoustic sweetness of “Maya” and the emotional heft of “Leo,” the album makes a great case for sonic diversity and the fragility of life, but perhaps all the album’s themes are best captured on the record’s title track, “I Saw The Egg”.
Pinch Points - "Process" | Album Review
Process, the latest from Pinch Points, shows the band have a caustic take on the modern world and its many ongoing societal issues. The band’s sound has become a little more developed and although there is a strain of anxiety and anger that runs through everything here, there is also an excitement that is equally pervasive.
PLOSIVS - "PLOSIVS" | Album Review
PLOSIVS is a modern day So-Cal alt-rock supergroup, helmed by the twin guitars of John Reis (Drive Like Jehu, Rocket From the Crypt, Hot Snakes) and Rob Crow (Thingy, Pinback, and many, many others). This pairing of prolific San Diego powerhouses sets expectations high, and their self-titled debut does not disappoint.
Grocer - "Mountain Home" | Post-Trash Premiere
Numbers Game is an eclectic record that builds upon last year’s Delete If Not Allowed, mining the sound of 90’s alternative rock but reshaping it for modern times. With the band comprised of three vocalists and songwriters, there’s a good deal of dynamics to their music, each one offering a different spin of the cohesive whole.
