Japanese Breakfast - "Psychopomp" | Album Feature

Zauner’s songs are intricate, vulnerable and confessional, and the overall tone of the record is light and hopeful despite its heavy subject matter. Psychopomp as a whole is bewitching and as Zauner mends from her loss, the listener feels as emotionally restored as she does.

SXSW 2016: As Seen Through The Eyes Of Post-Trash Contributor Jon Hadusek

The official SXSW is a parade of PR, pomp, and glad-handing. Also terrible traffic. But on the east side, the original rock n roll spirit of SX lives on in seedy dives, co-ops, and house parties.

Puff Pieces - "Money" | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

Puff Pieces - "Money" | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

On their debut full-length, Washington, D.C. post-punk trio Puff Pieces brandishes wit and whimsy to inspect cultural phenomena like gentrification, wealth accumulation, and Sisyphean living. On “Money,” a throbbing two-minute nugget, Mike Andre’s lilting sing-song vocals highlight the parallels between autopilot living, financial needs, and boredom.

Jawbreaker Reunion - "Haha And Then What ;)" | Album Review

Jawbreaker Reunion - "Haha And Then What ;)" | Album Review

The trio, comprised of Bella Mazzetti, Lily Mastrodimos, and Dre Szegedy-Maszak, rip through 9 songs in 20 minutes, relentlessly distorting, shredding, and rocking out. This is an incredibly fun album to listen to -- it pairs pop-songwriting sensibility with the perfect amount of “fuck you”, and truly could not be bothered to operate otherwise.

Jeff Buckley - "You And I" | Album Review

Jeff Buckley - "You And I" | Album Review

In the years since Jeff Buckley’s infamous drowning at the age of 30, his unreleased and unfinished work has seen light through a handful of posthumous collections. The announcement of yet another, You and I, came as no great surprise, but left many wondering how much of the singer-songwriter there could possibly be left to share. As it turns out, You and I is one of the most compelling releases of Buckley’s material – not for its complete or realized nature, but because of its palpable intimacy.

Post-Trash Guide to SXSW 2016

SXSW is coming. Are you ready? There will be bands, oh so many damn bands. Here are our picks for who to see next week in Austin. 

Sunwatchers - "Sunwatchers" | Album Review

Sunwatchers - "Sunwatchers" | Album Review

What we get on this first proper album is a remarkably (even surprisingly) refined and well-produced foray into Sunwatchers' world of labyrinthian jams, as they double back and build, guitar and saxophone lines snaking their way alongside one another, forking off into wandering variations before rejoining in triumphant refrain.

Big Fred - "Pals" EP | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

Big Fred - "Pals" EP | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

Big Fred is the project of Rochester resident Conor McCann. He handles guitar, bass and vocal duties on Pals with Dylan Vaisey on the drums. Big Fred’s debut release is five quick songs; the longest one clocks in just a bit over two minutes, but McCann manages to cram a lot of melancholy and humor into these brisk tunes.
