Cellar Dwellar hails from Columbus, Ohio. Since 2020, the six-piece art-rock project has sharpened their messy strain of punk-psychedelia into a world of its own. Today, we’re thrilled to premiere “digital_drive_by,” Cellar Dwellar’s first release since 2024’s In the Shape of a Swan. 

Philadelphia’s Phil Spector’s Gun are as silly as they are intense, embracing a deadpan irony with record titles like Highway 61 Exploded! and double b side. Today, Post-Trash is thrilled to premiere “Benadryl Dreams,” another double-A b-side from the PSG universe.

Talulah Paisley’s music is as familiar as it is alien and “Slink” is remarkably distinct. Featured back-up vocalists Katie Von Schleicher and Frankie Cosmos’ Greta Kline and Alex Bailey support Paisley’s brilliantly loosey-goosey vocal delivery, making “Slink” an excellent second helping from the upcoming LP.

Following the release of last year’s majestic self-titled EP, Andy Molholt and co. return with “Big Apple, 3am,” a brand new single that captures the heart of the band. Together with Izzy Reidy (bass) and Eric Slick (drums), they’ve delivered a delightfully askew song with a video to match.

Set to release Blue Distances on May 3rd via Sad Cactus Records, the album pulls Wishbone Zoe from chaotic experimentation to softly focused folk songwriting. “Happy Loud” is a wistful acoustic guitar led song that shines thanks to Kochanski’s breezy vocal melody.

The trio are set to return with their upcoming EP, Everything Is Clear To Me, due out June 6th via Orange Milk Records. Over the course of thirteen maximalist minutes, Fruit LoOops work maniacal magic, the songs ripping with an excited energy and radiant weirdness.

Slowcore pop quartet the pond are gearing up to release A Year As A Cloud on May 9th. From what we’ve heard so far, it’s shaping up to be a doozy. “Into The Room” is the latest single from the Butte-based project’s upcoming full length; a somber, melancholic collection of tracks.

Michele Boscacci aka Merli Armisa makes hazy, homespun dream pop. The Sondrio, Italy-based guitarist’s off-kilter tunes hit just out of focus, brimming with a lo-fi microtonalities that bring a dynamic edge to the genre’s hypnagogic textures. Today, we’re excited to premiere Merli Armisa’s excellent new double single “Koto”/“Al Cader Dela Giornata.”

SAVAK are getting ready to release their seventh full length, SQUAWK!. Their veteran status is evident from the jump - there’s a clear focus to the songwriting, reaching into post-hardcore’s most earnest elements and just enough “college rock” jangle to keep things breezy.

She’s Green set themselves apart in the current shoegaze wave. The Minneapolis project’s dynamic blend of the genre’s prettiest and heaviest elements is all-consuming and highly intentional. They pull off bold, anthemic dream pop without ever sounding the slightest bit corny. 

Richmond duo Suped Up is former Antiphons lead Brian Dove and Diet Cig drummer Noah Bowman. The band’s super-charged super-pop is first-thought, best thought in action. “No Ghost No Problem” is an existentialist plea for complete nonexistence: not now, not later, not ever.

Tlooth’s 2024 single signaled their impending reinvention, one of melody, restraint, and a bit more cohesion to their reinvigorated push-pull formula. Today, we’re premiering the leadoff cut “Too Calm” from their self-titled full length, an immediately gripping opener for fans of Sonic Youth, early Polvo, and finding the hook-in-the-hubbub. 

Set to release Monarch Joy on May 23rd via Swimming Faith, Science Man has shift from solo project to band. It could best be described as the difference between claustrophobic sci-fi terror vs a roving gang of ruthless maniacs. It’s still chaotic, but the chaos has evolved.

What comes next for Deady is anyone’s guess, but we’ll find out soon enough as the band are getting ready to release 2 Dead 2 Furious in June. Continuing to stretch their amorphous punk core, “Hot Damn” finds itself rooted in anthemic hardcore.

The quartet of Sonam (Drill, Ursula), Pier (Privacy Issues), Kat (Amanda X, Clasp) and Juliette (Corey Flood), bring together so much of what makes Philadelphia’s DIY punk scene great, their music is scrappy and inventive, melodic yet raw, remarkably irreverent and socially conscious.

Federico Stock’s “Paper Plate” is a meditation on the world’s fragility, a world where something as steady as the moon can be ripped up like a paper plate. In spite of this, the song is immovable, anchored by a warm, fingerpicked guitar that doesn’t let up until the song’s final seconds.

There’s a careful balance between Cor de Lux’s distortion and melody, wonky textures and glistening immediacy, captured with great effect on the band’s new single “Long Face People,” an expansive song that pierces and surges through locked-in grooves.

While it might not have a “pop” immediacy, Alpha Hopper’s corrosive sound is still bright and accessible, poking at our spongy brains with a pointy stick and a mischievous smile. Let Heaven and Nature Sing II, their first album in nearly five years, is oddly mesmerizing, picking apart blistering riffs and pounding drums, constructing a rampant onslaught of boundless energy.

La Sécurité’s “Ketchup” is a spring-loaded post-punk shuffle; a high-energy, no-bullshit, all-French number built around the wonderful Québécois phrase “l’affaire est ketchup” which means “all is well.” 

Following the album’s release and a split 7” with Heavy Meddo, Queen Serene are sharing the Taylor Browne directed video for “In a Rut (I’m Stuck)”. Browne brings a brilliant mix of stop-motion claymation and a acidic charm to the natural world as good and evil forces battle it out under waves of psychedelic chaos.
