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.
Ryan Power - "World of Wonder" | Post-Trash Premiere
Rick Rude - "Winded Whale" | Post-Trash Premiere
Laverne, the band’s upcoming third album is due out February 2nd via Midnight Werewolf Records and Best Brother Records, shows that the kinetic friendship energy that has embraced Rick Rude’s music over the years is in fine form. Heck, they’ve never sounded better, offering equal parts force and warmth.
All Feels - "Shoreline" | Post-Trash Premiere
Following “Middling,” our introduction to the new line-up back in May, Candace Clement’s All Feels return with a new two song single, Shoreline / Absent, out today via Flower Sounds (See Jazz, The Lentils, Bobbie), a gorgeous pair of thoughtful alternative rock songs that could and should be FM gold.
Hooper Crescent - "Karaoke Love" | Post-Trash Premiere
Brunswick, Australia’s Hooper Crescent are relying on a formula with their second album, Essential Tremors. While the quintet could have returned to the guitar heavy tangled post-punk of their debut, they’ve opted to push into new territories, exploring a different set of sounds while keeping their established framework in tact.
