Dories - "Twin" | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

Dories - "Twin" | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

The Montreal quartet's latest record picks up where Stripped left off, mining the pop side of post-punk with angular stabs at jangly guitars and rhythms that often move in against one another. There's an unflinching calm to the band's spastic charm as Dories manipulate complex shifts and progressions into something casual and inviting

Eskimeaux - "Year of The Rabbit" | Album Review

Eskimeaux - "Year of The Rabbit" | Album Review

Year of the Rabbit has a slightly darker tone than it's predecessor, O.K. Melodically, YOTR feels like a classic Eskimeaux album. It chronologically fits into Smith's discography like a glove. Lyrically, Smith matures with each release. In a short amount of time, the album hits on themes of personal growth, insecurity, fear, love, and lust. 

Mumblr - "VHS" | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

Mumblr - "VHS" | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

“VHS” finds Mumblr continuing to make the pulsating, catchy rock that defined 2014’s Full of Snakes, and that has become a highly specific sonic identity for the band. Singer Nick Morrison’s voice has the incredible quality of driving Mumblr songs to their outermost limits, functioning as a fifth instrument floating above the mix, and in “VHS” this is on full display.

Cat Be Damned - "Daydreams In A Roach Motel" | Album Review

Cat Be Damned - "Daydreams In A Roach Motel" | Album Review

Daydreams in a Roach Motel is a deeply weird release, one that pushes past a stale game of “spot the reference” to paint a larger regional portrait of gender identity and spiritual renewal, of life and death, horizon and transience in the thick flow of the James. Cat Be Damned’s hazy lo-fi feels like a fitting artifact of too many landscapes to count, compounded over soft synths and hushed vocals that teeter towards collapse. 

Saccharine - "We Both Became The Sky | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

Saccharine - "We Both Became The Sky | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

Saccharine is the work of Kevin King, who you might know from his previous band Maura, and is grade A bedroom folk pop. Don’t mistake that for a lo-fi feel. It was recorded in Soft Fangs’ John Lutkevich’s childhood attic, which apparently has killer acoustics, because the record sounds great.

Car Seat Headrest - "Teens of Denial" | Album Review

Car Seat Headrest - "Teens of Denial" | Album Review

Car Seat Headrest songs are about the big, scary questions that we’re all asking ourselves. Although Toledo doesn’t claim to have the answers, you still end up feeling empowered as a listener. The record captures the all too familiar sense of emptiness and uncertainty that comes with the start of adulthood, and it will fiercely resonate with young people who are trying to figure out how to live in a world that feels like it's falling apart more everyday.

Julia Brown - "An Abundance of Strawberries" | Album Review

Julia Brown - "An Abundance of Strawberries" | Album Review

Sam Ray is the bedroom-pop powerhouse behind Julia Brown. The project formed in 2013 with the release of To Be Close To You- a light-hearted indie pop album full of lo-fi love songs. With An Abundance… Julia Brown returns, taking on a much darker tone and hitting on sadder elements of love including loss, heartbreak, desire and dread.
