Moon Duo - "Occult Architecture Vol. 1" | Album Review

Moon Duo embark on another spaced-out voyage with Occult Architecture Vol. 1, the first of a two-part project centered on the light/dark binary. This is the darker half of the work, appropriate for a winter release, and was inspired by the changing of the seasons.

The sophistication of Railings’ jazzy progressions is rare in a climate of DIY music so widely indebted to twee and punk music.

Breezing zen-like through ten moon-drenched tracks, Chicago outfit The Hecks drill deep into the subconscious on their self-titled debut, blending despairing drone exercises with an appetite for feverish post-punk.

Poppies - "Mistakes" | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

Whether it's your first introduction to the band or just a new look into their majestic brand of sultry guitar pop, the "Mistakes" video, directed by Sam Kuhn, is stunning when paired with Poppies' slow drawn melodies and fainting disposition.

Sharks' Teeth - "Unpack" | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

When we last checked in with the band they were sharing the slick warped pop of "Lost In The Cosmos" but "Unpack" (Juniper Branches' lead single) takes a look back to a less polished time when Sharks' Teeth was still the solo bedroom project of Tyler Scurlock.

Travis Trevisan - "Slow Fade" | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

While Trevisan is no stranger to noise, SLUG finds him spending time with ambient folk soundscapes. Gone is the wall of reverb and instead filtered loops build on each other.

Kindling - "Claims Nonexistence" | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

"Claims Nonexistence" is the records' first single, a heavy sludge fest that revs up with a stuttering introduction and tears forward with a blanket of guitar noise.

Axis: Sova - "Motor Earth" | Album Review

Axis: Sova's latest effort, Motor Earth, released on Ty Segall’s Drag City imprint God? Records in October 2016, is what Brett Sova calls a “heightened level of outward communication,” a collaborative jam recorded live as a band.

DiCaprio - "I Went To The Mall Yesterday And I Got Sick" | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

I Went to the Mall Yesterday and I Got Sick is not a "feel good" album. There is no "sunshine" to be found anywhere near. Instead, DiCaprio are mining the depths of outward despair with anti-social anthems and an unflinching pessimistic outlook.

Leggy - "Leggy" | Album Review

January 20, 2017

by: dan goldin

Reviews

Leggy’s iridescent debut full-length release is a careful compilation of three previously released EPs plus one new song, “Kick the Habit.” Resulting in a crushing 37-minute narrative of self-love and unrequited (and sometimes overly-requited) romance, Leggy props up the common mid-twenties feeling of emotional confusion.

Gun Control - "City Of No" | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

"City Of No" is a ragged anti-gentrification anthem that rocks itself into a bit of a stupor. Recorded in the band's practice space and the Vancouver Public Library, there's a lo-fi haze that coats their mangled pop, working to the band's advantage.

Nine Inch Nails - "Not The Actual Events" | Album Review

It’s been oft-quoted that Reznor said the EP was “an unfriendly, fairly impenetrable record.” The lyrics are buried, distorted. There is more sound and noise to this EP. But this is something that is not strictly related to the music.

Rick Rude - "Make Mine Tuesday" | Album Review

There are hints of a lot of great guitar bands throughout these songs, but at the end of the day, Rick Rude have a sound that is all their own. It’s a sound that’s playful, but not sloppy. It’s a sound that is heartfelt, not contrived.

Plum Professional - "Spooky Action at a Distance" | Post-Trash Exclusive Premiere

Csehak's wiry guitar grooves blend seamlessly with Chadwick's electronic touches, combining together to create a sound somewhere between cosmic funk and garage-soul. As the duo let their trip evolve and squirm in disjointed glee (joined once again by Weyes Blood's background vocals), their triumphant boogie soars into a realm of untapped bliss.
