Chris Clavin - The Roads Don't Lead Home - 2016
If you like the Mountain Goats you'll like this!
Originally released on Crafty Records on LP (thanks). This was the first album released under the name Chris Clavin, but should really be a Captain Chaos album, since it's the same thing.
By that I mean, all songs are written and recorded as quickly as possible. The intent being to have fun writing and not take it too serious, of course this ends you up with some pretty simple songs. I hope you like them.
The Hayman Kupa Band - Someone to Care For - 2016

Nathaniel Rateliff - Falling Faster Than You Can Run - Audiotree Live - 2014
Im on the run
Aim
Breakin away
On the feet of you all
And catchin the stone
with a side of my head
hold me back
walkin it home
im takin the tracks
so leave me alone
you can see me fall
faster than
you can run
take it away
if you're feelin its wrong
kickin it back
watch it dissolve
tug on the line
Chained to the wall
I heard you call
We're not gonna make it at all
Runnin
im gonna fall
probably should
well catch me
you never could
I planned out the distance
from where you stood
When I hit the ground
gonna laugh out loud
gonna lay there a while and stare at the clouds
baby it looks bad
or maybe from the angle im at
well i tear off my shirt
and wrap it around
your wound
Naps - The Most Beautiful Place - 2016
Super cool little indie pop release out of Tallahassee, Florida. Great release.
Modern Baseball - Holy Ghost - 2016
The first album recorded by someone other than the band themselves, Modern Baseball enlisted Joe Reinhart (Hop Along, Joyce Manor) at Headroom Studios in Philadelphia to help refine their sound on Holy Ghost. In a tight 28 minutes, Holy Ghost covers an impressive emotional range, with co-songwriters Jacob Ewald and Brendan Lukens literally splitting the record in half. The record kicks off with six songs from Ewald and ends with five from Lukens. What they ended up with was a complete record of the past two years– the highs alongside the lows, tales from the road and glorious days at home alongside songs of heartbreak and personal struggle.
SPORT - Slow - 2016
A little bit of indie, a little bit of punk merge together on this solid release.

Star Parks - Don't Dwell - 2016
'This often-brilliant record feels like the summer’s ultimate calling-card' – Gold Flake Paint
'Evocative of a past era but casting a new spell each time you play it' – Under the Radar Magazine
'I like this, my Mum would like this, you probably like this. What's not to like?' – The 405
VA - Blue Thunder: A Tribute to Galaxie 500 - 2016
The music is and must necessarily be magical, otherwise loses its strength, its essence. And that magic is in every song of every album of Galaxie 500, and that is never erased. That's the feeling that I still have from the first time I heard Tugboat.
Thank you, Dean, Naomi, and Damon

Manon meurt - 2014
chrisgendo very relaxing. any album i constantly pop in before going to bed gets my wholehearted recommendation and this is one of them
Jabod Atmospheric shoegaze with shimmering guitars, ethereal vocals and well-timed crescendos that takes me back to the early 90s (and particularly Pale Saints, masters of the stirring shoegaze soundscape).
Roselit Bone - Dreamless Sleep (Split w/Jenny Don't & the Spurs) - 2016
We are Roselit Bone. We play knife-fight music. We play psychotic cowboy music. We will suck the smile off your drunk face.

Fort Frances - Alio - 2016
“You definitely want to keep your eyes on this band,” Bruce Warren at WXPN wrote in 2013 when Fort Frances released Harbour,, a self-recorded EP that landed the band on stage with a who’s who list of emerging indie rock names including The Lone Bellow, Bahamas, PHOX, Kopecky and We Are Augustines.
Now, with the band’s release of Alio, that prediction appears to be true. With Sam Kassirer (Josh Ritter, Lake Street Dive, Langhorne Slim) at the production helm, the band’s new EP stretches well beyond their Americana roots to unlock the potential that’s been building for the past two years with louder guitars, jubilant horns and dueling rhythm sections.
