Wellness - "Mall Goth" EP | Post-Trash Premiere

Mall Goth is an apt description of the music contained on the EP, with production that lends it a slight mall speaker quality like it’s some kind of lo-fi pop doom being piped in on a pirate feed.

The Breeders - "All Nerve" | Album Review

All Nerve is The Breeders’ fifth studio album, coming out after a ten year hiatus since their last record. The Breeders have an iconic sonic terrain — though reminiscent of early garage rock, the dark pop quartet has an unmistakable style all their own.

Amen Dunes - "Freedom" | Album Review

April 3, 2018

by: andrew hertzberg

Reviews

The result is a sound that is full and stripped down at the same time, but certainly far from his lo-fi roots. Now, Freedom sounds like the album McMahon has been itching to make.

Bambara - "Sunbleached Skulls" | Post-Trash Premiere

Embracing the dirt of noise rock and the twang of western-tinged punk noir, the band writhe and pound, burning a trail in their wake of desolate and depraved narratives

Not For You - "Drown" | Album Review

March 28, 2018

by: tim crisp

Reviews

Listen on in discomfort as Not For You has you in the palm of their hand. Drown is an ugly, nasty mix of shoegaze, sludge, and bleak goth that will make you squirm and ask for more.

Gosh! - "The Dishwasher" | Post-Trash Premiere

Between engine failures and lost drummers, the band-life probably weighs heavy on these folks, and though the lyrics to new single/video “The Dishwasher” might allude to a life of artistic failures and disappointments, the accompanying visuals cement the undeniable sense of mischief and discovery in the music too.

Jim Shorts - "The Tree Of Life" | Post-Trash Premiere

As Jim Shorts play Halo, Guitar Hero, Hungry Hungry Hippos, pick out VHS’, eat Chinese food and what appear to be meatballs, they seem content and satisfied. At the same time they also shred a head bopping slice of fuzz-pop.

The entire album feels like a push and pull, a true battle with self-love, reminding us all to be extra gentle with ourselves, regardless of the hardships that any of us are facing here and now.
