Media Jeweler - "Splayed Wayside" | Post-Trash Premiere

Media Jeweler's latest single, "Splayed Wayside" is full of their bright and aggressive tendencies, a song that jostles itself to life with a stuttering stop and start intro. The band work their magic, tumbling into a caustic groove, the guitars stabbing at the fractured rhythms as the lyrics come in quick couplets

Premieres

Jangling in a detached manner, Follies drift from airy melancholy to a rhythmically dense mess, stumbling brilliantly between layers of clarinet, vocals, and twangy melodies.

American Pleasure Club - "A Whole Fucking Lifetime Of This" | Album Review

Sam Ray’s projects have always been largely informed by whatever the hell he wants and, beautifully, A Whole Fucking Lifetime of This proves no exception.

Stephe Cooper - "No Other" | Post-Trash Premiere

There's still plenty of kaleidoscopic wonder, but the heart rests within Cooper's lyrics and personal approach. Home of Bread is an eclectic record, mining his influences in the form of stunning originals, collaborations, covers, and sound collages, each offering a unique texture to a singular vision.

Jack - "Alchemical Rounds" | Album Review

The intrinsic frustration of our inner lives, our relationships, and our desire to grow never really subsides, and neither does Alchemical Rounds’ narrative.

The Night Screams - "Big Picture" | Post-Trash Premiere

The band twist and howl with a garage punk fury, creeping around rock 'n' roll's sleaziest corners, burning down each track with big dirty riffs and pounding drums.

The arrangement and execution of each track on Multi-task ensures the listener is never bored by their reinvention of the proverbial post-punk wheel.

Arc Flash - "Carbon Copy" | Album Review

Fast-paced and furious, their 2017 release Carbon Copy doesn’t have a dull moment. Each track highlights its own unique but equally-energetic melody, those kinds of musical moments that nestle into your brain and get stuck there for days.

March 9, 2018

by: Jonathan Bannister

Reviews

Surrender is an apt title but hopefully there’s no waving of the white flag yet because for those willing to track it down, there is the same strong songwriting you remember while maturing their sound into something fuller.

A Beacon School - "I Don't Believe It" | Post-Trash Premiere

While first single "Algernon" took a decidedly danceable approach to indie pop, second single "I Don't Believe It" takes its cues from the power-pop greats, a neat and focused ripper, dripping with melodic charm and guitar based hooks.

Sitcom - "Be The One You Love" | Album Review

It’s easy to label Lazovick’s brand of optimism as childish or not grounded in reality. However, it’s his deep self-awareness that serves much like the sitcom, shifting cynicism into a platform for motivation.

Floating Room - "Paper Cuts" | Post-Trash Premiere

"Paper Cuts," originally released as a bonus track on Good Cheer's 2017 Label Sampler, is Floating Room at their dreamiest and most tranquil state. The track works itself into a blur, a layered drone of drifting melodies that move in ambient waves.
