As the year comes to a close, and we bid “farewell” (and maybe “fuck you”) to 2024, it’s the perfect time to look back and celebrate the albums that shaped the soundtrack of the last 12 months. From deeply personal indie projects to genre-defining heavy hitters, 2024 was filled with groundbreaking releases that reminded us of the power of music and, more importantly, of the alternative community. With so much incredible work to choose from, narrowing down our favorites was a daunting task. This year, the quality and variety of music made it impossible to rank our picks—every album brought… Read more »
Donald Trump’s bank account is feeling lighter than his hairdo after a New York judge slapped him with a $355 million penalty for inflating his wealth. And former FBI informant Alexander Smirnov is accused of fabricating a bribery scheme involving President Joe Biden and Hunter Biden. Plus, the FCC is putting its foot down on AI-generated robocalls, and George Santos is suing Jimmy Kimmel over some Cameo video pranks.
iDKHOW is back and in a new era. Two weeks following the announcement of drummer Ryan Seaman’s departure and new music incoming, vocalist Dallon Weekes has posted four cryptic videos on Instagram. From a blue telephone to Weekes’ silhouette, the indie-pop project gives fans a taste of what to expect from their upcoming single, “WHAT LOVE?” The first three videos all focus on bright objects that you could find in someone’s home: a blue wired telephone, a bright pink book, and a yellow china set.

“I don’t know where you begin but it’s where I wanna end” Is there anything better than a beloved band returning after years away and delivering a no-skip album? I don’t think so—and apparently, Beach Weather agrees. Formed in 2015 and releasing two (excellent) EPs before going on hiatus in 2017, Beach Weather—Nick Santino, Reeve Powers, and Sean Silverman—re-emerged in late 2021 and now they’re officially back with their debut full-length, Pineapple Sunrise. Before we get any further, I have to confess that I’ve been a Nick Santino stan (a Stantino, if you will) since I started listening to his… Read more »

She has completely laid out who she is on the table and we want to embrace all that she has.
