THERESE LITHNER - DROWN (2018)


"Lithner's vocals flow, sharp and elegant, with the song's rhythm and tempo, and give it the obsessive, lovetorn anguish that makes it a dramatic and compelling piece of great art rock." - The Line Of Best Fit

Palehound - YMCA Pool - 2018



Palehound leader Ellen Kempner described the origin of the tracks found on YMCA Pool in saying, "I've had these songs laying around forever and could never really find a place for them on a record. After we toured with Bully, Alicia Bognanno offered to record some stuff for me at her house in Nashville, which seemed like a great opportunity. We spent two days hiding from the heat in her house recording... and also at Dave and Buster's. I love Alicia she is truly the best."

Gizeh Records - Anthology - Volume I - 2018



Anthology - Volume I is a collection of music we have released into the world in the not too distant past. Gizeh is now well-known for not being attracted to any one particular genre of music and this selection dives seamlessly and we feel, coherently between drone, metal, post-rock, neo-classical, ambient and plenty of other outsider and sub-genres.

Good Sign - "Demo" - 2018



This great little label is cranking out solid diy indie punk… Real good.

Trust Fall - "Giants Of Love" - 2018


San Francisco's Meh makes messy and perfect lo-fi bedroom pop. Distorted bass and bright guitar lines over drum machine beats. RIYL: Love as Laughter, Six Cents and Natalie, and Sentridoh.

Squill - Bury It - 2018



Squill sheds their third superfluous "L" from the band name. Squilll -> Squill. This small but meaningful change is an indicator of the refinement and crystallization of the band's music and songwriting from the previous album "Daughters Of The Earth" to this brand new 9 song offering. While the title may appear to indicate an end, a death, or a denial, these songs in fact also emanate hope and pave way for renewal, a fresh start, a new beginning.

SARA RENBERG- NIGHT SANDS (2018)


Solid release… 

Portlander-turned-Pittsburgher Sara Renberg is a deft lyricist with jangly arrangements. Deadpan and vulnerable, straddling indie rock and indie folk, she creates a room for her listeners to live in, small worlds that envelop.

Camp Cope - "How To Socialise & Make Friends" - 2018


Maybe I’ll leave the house tonight
Maybe I’ll even watch the band and maybe I’ll cry
Maybe I’ll tell everyone I cried while you
Sleep next to your wife for the rest of your life
While I’m ridin’ in the dark
On my bike with no handlebars
Yeah

Joining are Gooey Fame on drums, Nikki Geslani on bass and vocals and Jen Lee on keyboards, for recording and playing live, with additional long-distance vocal support from Leanne Butkovic. Sushi Backpack draws inspiration from bands such as Rocketship, Die Fünf Freunde and Citrus, but the first band you might think of when you hear them might be Tullycraft.
