“Ten Little Indies” rewrites the entire script for PoST. After losing their original bassist Gigi Laurino, in 2014, it would’ve been easy for the band to fizzle or fall into repetition. Instead, they met Daniele Maresca, and something clicked. With his touch on piano and synths, the band found a…

“This Is Water” by Light and Shade is a sprawling, heartfelt ride through grief, love, memory, and survival, all wrapped in a genre-bending mix of rock, soul, and jazz-tinged instrumentals. Recorded in under six days in Memphis, the album pulses with raw energy and lived-in authenticity. The strong sense of…

Wild and Untamed by Millstöne is a barrelling, gruelling piece to throw your inhibitions out the window as you battle your desire for everything that’s wrong. From the first smug churn of the guitar, you know you’re in for a ride that’s gritty, loud, and unapologetically soaked in sex, sweat,…

“Linda Moo and Piggy Sue” by Steven Browley catches your ear with its quirky charm and keeps you around with a real message. Straight out of Leverkusen, Germany, Browley brings us a track that’s as playful as it is powerful. From the very first shimmer of the guitar strums, you…

Ho Jo Fro’s Timidly Free opens like a bright day after stormy weather with catchy beats, shining horns, and a grown-up and gleeful groove. “Timidly Free” was  pieced together with care and joy in Charlottesville’s Studio 607 by Paul R Johnson and a gang of seriously talented friends. The vocals,…

Greg Hoy’s “What, My People?” is a full-throttle garage-rock jolt. From the second that fuzzed-out guitar swagger fades in, you know you’re in for a wild, punchy ride. The drums burst in like a street fight in 4/4 time, the riffs snarl with grit, and Greg’s raspy, no-nonsense vocals charge…

Marcus: the Apex Predator! is a Detroit-based indie/post-hardcore outfit. Formed in 2015, Kevin Watts (guitars, vocals, songwriter) teams up again with Float Here Forever bandmate, Nick Marko (drums and percussion) for the band’s 2025 “Newborn Fossil” EP. Sean Bondareff (Kind Beast) lays down the bass this time around. The tracks…

Bones’n’Stones by Teika & The Raw Beat haunts, it stirs, and it absolutely blooms. From the very first track, “Bones’n’Stones”, you’re drifting in a thick cinematic haze. Teika, aka Mateja Kert, holds your hand through a swamp of sound—her husky voice trailing somewhere between a whisper and a spell. There’s…

“Falling Apart” by Undergone is a slow-motion implosion wrapped in distortion and heartbreak, echoing from the depths of a dream you’re not quite ready to wake up from. From the moment the track kicks off, you’re swallowed whole by gritty guitars and bustling drums, only to be led deeper by…

Nómada (Remastered 2025) by Pablo Langaine is less of an album and more of a cinematic road trip across borders, deserts, and dreams — all without leaving your headphones. The first track, “Mar Adentro,” opens like a breeze rolling in off a quiet shore — soft guitars, shaking percussion, and…
