Modern Nature - "Annual" | Album Review
Where before Modern Nature found urgency in exploring their sonic boundaries though - dipping into everything from krautrock to free jazz - Annual is a conceptual rather than experimental piece. Annual documents one year in Cooper’s life, with his thoughts drawn from a journal filled with ideas and notes.
Momma - "Two of Me" | Album Review
Hooper Crescent - "Bible Studies" | Post-Trash Premiere
Dougie Poole - "The Freelancer's Blues" | Album Review
Milk For The Angry - "Patience" | Post-Trash Premiere
Fuzzy Meadows: The Week's Best New Music (June 22nd - June 28th)
Little Kid - "Transfiguration Highway" | Album Review
Just in time for the height of leafy backroad drives and sleepy afternoons spent in a humid sun, Toronto’s most underrated folk-rock outfit Little Kid have dropped the ideal summer album. Transfiguration Highway is a beautiful exploration of self-worth and spiritual identity through a lens of religious mysticism.
Post-Trash's Best of 2020: A Mid-Year Report
The time to catch up on the unabridged Post-Trash “Mid-Year Report” has come, with releases big and small - albums that went under the radar, the hidden gems, and the essential records from the past six months. This is our semi-comprehensive guide to our favorite releases of the year so far without a pre-determined length.
Fiona Apple - "Fetch The Bolt Cutters" | Album Review
Psychic Shakes - "Wage Slave" | Track Review
“Wage Slave,” the latest single from Brighton, U.K. based indie-pop outfit Psychic Shakes, laments the monotony and lack of fulfillment that comes with low wage employment. It’s a familiar story that many can relate to and Max McLellan conveys this tale against a backdrop of jangly guitars, a downtempo beat, and a sleek rhythm.
Cable Ties - "Far Enough" | Album Review
Far Enough contains rallying cries against power, gatekeepers, cynicism, greed, and all the other obstacles that attempt to wear and beat people down till they’re too exhausted to fight back. It’s all housed in thick, driving bass lines, quick, steady drums, and stabbing guitar work. It’s punk that is still incredibly catchy and hook laden.
This Is Lorelei - "Hella Good" (No Doubt cover) | Post-Trash Premiere
Pottery - "Welcome To Bobby's Motel" | Album Review
“Welcome to Bobby’s Motel, the place where all your dreams come true.” Those are the first lyrics we hear on Welcome to Bobby’s Motel, the debut long player from Montreal band Pottery. After hearing the full album, those introductory words seem apt; Pottery proceeds to take the listener on a sonic odyssey, criss crossing genres.
All Hits - "Sugar Supply" | Post-Trash Premiere
All Hits are set to release their full length debut, Men And Their Work via Iron Lung Records this coming Friday, and much like their band name applies, there isn’t a dud in the bunch. From the detached feedback of the intro to the hyper-speed finale, the Pacific NW trio make post-punk with a heaping amount of dissonance and strength.
Jason Simon - "A Venerable Wreck" | Album Review
Harry The Nightgown - "Pill Poppin' Therapist" | Post-Trash Premiere
The boundlessly creative Los Angeles-based duo Harry the Nightgown (mems of Cherry Glazerr) produce a catchy and playful slice of avant-rock on latest single “Pill Poppin’ Therapist.” Taken from their upcoming self-titled debut album, the track is packed with restless energy that pushes in several different directions at once.
Yawners - "Just Calm Down" | Album Review
Spain's Yawners honestly feels like they've emerged from a time capsule buried deep in the earth some time in the previous decade. The prickly, precious little confections they bake up on their latest album, Just Calm Down, are so delicate and delightful that they will feel like they could melt in your mouth.
