As always, all of the above singles are available to stream from my #NewMusicFriday playlist (below) which gets completely updated every single Friday, so feel free to follow/like it and you're all set.

If you don't want to risk missing it, you can also sign up to my mailing list and I'll email it out to you every Friday along with a list of that week's new album and EP releases.

 

I’ll get my list together later but OMFG there’s a new The Junior Varsity song out today! I think I just de-aged 15-20 years. Wow never thought I’d see them back

 

Type Foundry - Type Foundry

Apparently a project by members of Gleemer.

 

Just Stick to Your Guns for albums today. There is a Chinese Football and Balance & Composure audiotree sessions out today too, but I generally skip the live, lo-fi, re-imagined etc type of releases.

 

styg and the new sage francis mixtape (out yesterday)

 

Checking out Ethel Cain, Lambrini Girls, Stick To Your Guns, and Inside Voices, which I haven’t seen mentioned yet. Only listened to the prerelease tracks so far, but they have an alt-rock/emo sound and remind me of A Great Big Pile of Leaves and Pianos Become the Teeth (mainly in the guitars) respectively:

 

Never given Tremonti the time of day, despite being super into Creed & Alter Bridge, but I checked out the new record and this is some pretty solid stuff.

 

STYG

 

I forgot this Zeta album was coming out so early this year and it actually dropped yesterday. Venezuelan-via-Florida post-hardcore featuring Anthony Green (channeling TSOAF) and Money Nicca (the rap moniker of Pierce from Soul Glo). For fans of Thrice and Black Peaks:

 

a new single from Mourn

 

Stale Azzwater - Seasonal Depression Parte Uno

 

Hey y’all! I’ve dropped a huge amount of songs I’ve written over the past 12 years on bandcamp and wanted to drop the link here.

bridgewater

It’s all acoustic, but There’s a variety of vibes if anyone wants to check it out:

Long overdue and Imitation are both acoustic post rock instrumental.

Passing blues and no fall are folk punk-ish (kind of)

July EP is love songs

The rest are all really, really sad emo acoustic.

 

Ethel Cain all day

 

zzzahara - Spiral Your Way Out (90s jangly guitars)
Maddie Jay - I Can Change Your Mind (bedroom pop)
Lambrini Girls - Who Let The Dogs Out (riot grrl/punk)
Inside Voices - If It Matters (alt rock)
Halt Or I’ll Shoot! - And I’ll Look Back and Remember (screamo with twinkly guitars from my hometown)

 

could be on an island here but that new Ethel Cain is rough to get through. I'm really disappointed given how much I enjoyed Preachers Daughter.

 

New Dirty Nil songs SLAP. NO WEAKNESSES

 

I feel the same exact way. It's a challenge to make it through

 

New Winona Fighter single.
