Excellent album. For anyone not familiar, it's punk-influenced folk but not folk-punk. Features guest vocals from the legendary Steve Ignorant (Crass) and John Doe (X).
I'm hoping to share some things not on your radar: Glixen "Quiet Pleasures" ep (Shoegazy) This is Wreckage "Transaction/Service" ("Accessible" noise rock) Dead Horse One/Threaded split ep (Alternative rock is an easy label but what else can I say?) Singles: Errth "Streets don't sing" (don't let the spelling make you think it's a metal band. Melodic stuff) Guernica "Rain on my parade" (Recorded in 1988. That band name should give you some deja oh never mind) Museum of Light (Gently heavy) No Motiv (More melody) (& Spy, Fontaines DC, Staticlone, Superheaven, & Anxious as well)
After a few years of singles and EPs, Isabel Pless finally released her debut album and it’s amazing I think Super hooky, mostly quiet, and funny/sad lyrics. Production is incredible too.
Anxious - Bambi (rly melodic emo/pop punk (?) with dual vocals) Anna Shoemaker - Someone Should Stop Her (pop) IDER - Late to the World (pop) Nao - Jupiter (alt R&B/soul) Saya Gray - SAYA (indie) Sunny War - Armageddon in a Summer Dress (folk) Glixen - Quiet Pleasures EP (shoegaze) Porridge Radio - The Machine Starts to Sing EP (indie)
Band I recently discovered Mineral King released their debut LP today and it’s solid. FFO Pinegrove, Weezer, REM
