With four previous studio albums each offering a fresh perspective of electrifying emo-pop, Kicksie has released their all-new record Slouch via Counter Intuitive Records. In an array of slow-burn ballads and unabashed honesty, Slouch reads more like Giuliana Mormile’s personal diary where they’re free to be who they want to be and articulate their most intimate moments. Opening with the kaleidoscope-esque track, “Closure” before blooming into the album’s third track “Boyfriend,” Slouch is an amalgamation of highs and lows that represent Mormile’s intimate journey as an artist. We had the chance to speak with Mormile, the mastermind behind Kicksie ahead… Read more »
Today, Hot Mulligan have released another new track from their upcoming album Why Would I Watch out May 12th via Wax Bodega. The new tune “Gans Media Retro Games” shows the band at their loudest and poppiest. This track follows the release of their song “Shhhh! Golf is On” last month, both produced by their long time studio partner, Brett Romnes. Hot Mulligan also released a goofy and dramatic wrestle-themed visual to accompany the new song and if you watch closely you might just catch a cameo from Dan Lambton. “This song is about only seeing what I’m doing wrong,”… Read more »

When I was a young boy, my father took me into the city to see a…Yankees game? Yesterday, March 30, the New York Yankees kicked off Opening Day at Yankee Stadium against the San Francisco Giants. And with Opening Day, the Yankees organization has released a hype video with a surprise My Chemical Romance “G note.” While the video only runs for a minute and 49 seconds, the iconic 2006 My Chemical Romance track “Welcome To The Black Parade” echoes brilliantly behind the commentator.

Bristol bred punk rockers IDLES returned to New York City on Thursday, September 15th for the final show of the North America leg of their 2022 tour. The band landed at the historic Kings Theatre in Flatbush, Brooklyn which provided a stunning juxtaposition between classic movie palace architecture and a contemporary punk rock concert. IDLES leaned heavily into their 2021 LP Crawler but the setlist spanned their entire catalog. The band has released four albums since 2017, with Crawler seeing the band venturing into more of a post-punk style. IDLES takes the next month off and then heads to New Zealand and Australia for… Read more »
“Straight to my head like I’m floating above the clouds. All I see is stars, far from the panic don’t know how I live without” The initial thought after hearing THE DRIVER ERA album Summer Mixtape: It’s addicting. Summer may be over according to the calendar but Ross and Rocky Lynch have completely captured the essence of sunny days and turned it into an album. They kick off the 11-track album with “Malibu” and it immediately has you bobbing your head. (This is not an exaggeration. I automatically danced in my seat.) Their music releases an insane amount of serotonin.… Read more »
“I wanna know the measure from here to forever, and I wanna feel the pressure of God or whatever” Death Cab for Cutie has felt like a warm blanket for over twenty years. Even with music that is rooted deep in emotion, there is a comfort that they bring to the table.

The moment Ben Gibbard’s voice starts up on the first track, “I Don’t Know How I Survive”, you feel like you’re home. As always,… Read more »
