New Sam Fender single.

 

That vacant home record is so good - aggressive but interesting and melodic and points. Nice rec!

 

Relatively light in terms of volume of releases, but some high quality stuff out today!

Anna B Savage (stark eccentric singer-songwriter)
Ditz (noisy post-punk/post-hardcore)
High. (shoegaze)
horsegiirL (EP) (happy hardcore and not to be confused with Horsegirl)
Kathryn Mohr (dark, ethereal singer-songwriter)
Lucero (Unplugged) (alt-country punk)
Mogwai (post-rock)
Nicole Hale (eccentric singer-songwriter)
Pants Exploder (sludge)
Rose City Band (choogly American indie jam)
Slowly Slowly (pop-rock, think The Maine meets The 1975)

 

And this huge LA benefit comp, with proceeds going to Mutual Aid LA Network and featuring contributions from The Album Leaf, Ducks Ltd, Cold Gawd, J. Robbins, Matt Pond PA, Kevin Devine, Nisa, Kestrels, Buke & Gase, and about 80 others:

 

DITZ - Never Exhale (post punk)
FKA twigs - EUSEXUA (art pop)
Kathryn Mohr - Waiting Room (ambient pop)
Rose City Band - Sol Y Sombra (americana)
Slowly Slowly - Forgiving Spree (indie pop)
Anna B Savage - You & i are Earth (singer-songwriter)
Motherhood - Thunder Perfect Mind (idk it’s a mix of garage/punk/surf rock)

 

Calling Mogwai "indie pop" should be a crime.

 

Doesn’t seem to be anything for me.

gonna patiently wait for @CapnJazzHandz to post so I can get some recommendations haha

 

Teddy Swims
Slowly Slowly
Drew & Ellie Holcomb

 

There is some truly quality releases out today!

• Avatarium -- Doom with a subdued, melodic energy and some beautiful vocals
• The Great Old Ones -- Epic post-black metal with an awesome Lovecraftian theme (yes, the dude was a horrible human being).
• Harakiri for the Sky -- Post-black metal with a lot of melody
• NEMOPHILA -- Japanese all-female metalcore/nu-metal mash-up that is SUPER catchy
• Sunrot -- Sludge & post-metal band that gives The Body a run for their money
• Oni -- Catchy, proggy djent
• August Burns Red -- Excited to hear the re-recordings of these songs!
• Slowly Slowly -- Really great pop-rock band
• Mogwai -- Post-rock

 

Give me the handcuffs. I’ll throw myself in jail I typed pop instead of rock. Haha

 

Flipturn not being mentioned is wild. Feels right down a lot of folks’ alley on this site.

 

This made me check out this album and I'm obsessed with it so thank you!
