Cathedral Bells - "Time Capsule" | Post-Trash Premiere
Arriving in the wake of “Cemetery Surf” and “A Passing Piece,” two twitchy, whirring pieces of dazzling shoegaze pop, Cathedral Bells keep up the hazy pace with “Time Capsule.” The track’s nostalgia-washed production lands somewhere between Day Wave’s detached effervescence and DIIV’s driving punk swell.

Community College - "Karaoke" + "Novocaine" | Post-Trash Premiere
Introducing (or re-introducing) Community College, a brilliant lo-fi collective led by Horse Jumper of Love’s own John Margaris. Joined by his brother, Dan Margaris and Dimitri Giannopolous (also of HJOL), Community College occupies a similar space as their main act, offering warped to perfection pop songs with surreal yet relatable lyrics and earworm melodies tucked just under the fuzzy presence of the room.
Eerie Wanda - "Pet Town" | Album Review
Pet Town is the band’s latest, marking a newfound sense of comfort and clarity that reflects Marina Tadic’s hermetic songwriting and recording process. With the help of Jasper Verhulst and Jeroen de Heuvel, Pet Town was crafted in three separate locations and patched together through Tadic’s quietly psychedelic vision of solitude and introspection.

Various Artists - "You Can Sing Me Anything: A Tribute to 69 Love Songs" | Album Review

Vivian K. - "Paul At Art's Grave" | Post-Trash Premiere
The album’s first single, “Paul At Art’s Grave” is a shinning example of the band’s off-kilter pop. It’s jangly and damn near whimsical, but there’s still a sense of isolation and despair hidden in the joyous melody. With themes of space and hibernation, the song follows a front-porch barn burner of guitar picking (the could just as easily be a banjo).
