Blood - "Why Wait Till '55, We Might Not Even Be Alive" | Album Review
Blood is a septet from Austin, TX who have cemented themselves as a live staple in their own prospective scene as well as abroad, with two national tours under their belts. Their shows are dynamically rich and cathartic, which translates wholly into their debut EP, Why Wait Till ’55, We Might Not Even Be Alive.
Noun - "Drag" Video | Post-Trash Premiere
Built around songwriting depth and less about shredding, Noun songs tend to be more lo-fi, capturing an intimacy in Marissa Paternoster’s (Screaming Females) voice and minimalist compositions. “Drag” has been brought to life with a new recording, fleshed out and appearing on a brand new three song picture disc via Let’s Pretend Records.

Porches - "Ricky Music" | Album Review
Aaron Maine is never anything but himself in his music. Under the Porches moniker, he’s been releasing albums infused with all of the ecstasy and ache of being in and out of love. Ricky Music is no different, an at times erratic, fragmented and chaotic listen - heartbreak is always messy, though, so it shouldn’t sound any other way.
Curfews - "Stunted" | Post-Trash Premiere
The Marquette, Michigan based duo have their sophomore EP, Stunted, coming out on April 21st via Temporal Records. The record is an optimistic look at the love found in the familiar. After moving out West and grasping to find community, all it took was a return home to prove that sometimes home truly is where the heart is.
CLAMM - "Beseech Me" | Album Review
CLAMM was initially meant as a mere exercise to work on a heavier sound than their other outfits afforded. Such was the success of the experimentation, however, that we now have one of the strongest recent records to come from Melbourne in Beseech Me. It’s heavy, certainly, but underpinned by a steadfast thoughtfulness.

It makes perfect sense that so many of the King Pizza Records’ bands have captured great sets on BreakThru Radio’s “BTR Live Studio” show. The label has compiled the best of those sessions for Best of BTR Vol. 1, a benefit designed to help their artists during these difficult financial times due to the pandemic.

The band - Brendan Principato, Drew Sher, Jesse Paller - recently announced a new full length, Morning’s, due out May 15th via Super Wimpy Punch, the follow up to last year’s All Of Us Laughing. Record with The Cradle’s Paco Cathcart, the record’s first single “Stoneburner” is a woozy effort that comes alive in its own warped manner.
