Bruges - "Atop A Precipice" | Post-Trash Premiere
Chicago band Bruges comes from a long line of heavy hitters. With members listing credits from the likes of Angry Gods, Moral Void, and Den, there is no shortage of brutality packed into this four-piece. It’s a masterful utilization of space and restraint, as noise and desperation slowly put the listener into a vice grip.

Dead Rider Trio (feat. Mr. Paul Williams) - "Not a Point on a Scale" | Post-Trash Premiere
Dead Rider have always been about presenting what’s possible and how divergent ideas can sound cohesive. And so they’ve done it again with a new record on Drag City that offers Dead Rider joining forces with experimental/noise musician Paul Williams. The pairing is met with synchronicity from both sides, each matching the billowy artistic madness of other.

DAD - "Road Soda" | Post-Trash Premiere
Their second stand-alone single of the year is another blast of anti-social blistering punk and bludgeoning noise rock. The song is garbled and violent, thrashing itself in a panicked fury, making threats and demands that genuinely stick with the band’s whole sardonic “I’m not mad, I’m just disappointed” dad theme.
