The band’s latest is called Little Rope, released earlier this year. Head over to the band’s official Hello shop for shirts, totes, camo hats and music—I recommend checking out this great tri...

On one hand, a band shirt is a simple everyday item, the kind of thing you might take for granted. But when you start thinking about it, the topic encompasses so much more: band shirts help us tell stories about ourselves and what music means to us. And that’s why we’re here: to think a little more about band shirts and the holiday invented to celebrate them, Band Shirt Day, a global fundraising initiative uniting artists, fans, and the music industry at large on Friday, September 20th. Artis...
Nada Surf may have broken in the '90s with the sardonic mega-hit "Popular," but songwriter Matthew Caws isn't big on living in the past. On the band's new album, Moon Mirror, out September 13th from New West Records, he sets his sights on the present moment, focusing on the anxieties, hopes, and fears of our age while never losing sight of the hope and restless energy that has always fueled the band's music. Whether rocking out or settling into ballads, Nada Surf sounds focused and optimistic...

On their new album Oyster Cuts, Australian indie rockers Quivers blend jangle rock, synth-dappled new wave, and catchy indie-pop. Echoing the strum and chime of classic alt-acts like The Go-Betweens and R.E.M (they devoted their entire 2020 album to cover songs from the latter), Sam Nicholson (guitars), Bella Quinlan (bass), Michael Panton (guitars), and Holly Thomas (drums) create sounds that feels acutely human in this age of artifice. Nothing here is fussed over or smothered by production....

My Bloody Valentine were a great band from the start, but the 1990 Glider EP broke their floodgates open, as Kevin Shields turned the band's mix of thick guitars, heavy bass, pounding drums, and heavenly vocals into a soundworld of its own. After a little bit of a summer hiatus, Marc Masters (author of High Bias: The Distorted History of the Cassette Tape) and John Howard (Nice Breeze, Many Spaceships Studio) submerge themselves in the 7-inch version, "Soon" b/w "Glider," on the latest e...
Decoy Deloy shines a light on Synthesizer, the brand new album from one of the wildest bands we've ever seen: A Place to Bury Strangers.

That’s right, the vinyl is packaged in a circuit board cover. It’s exactly what you’d expect from band leader Oliver Ackermann, because when he’s not rocking with the band, he’s hard at...
