I can't find anything about this band online, so I'm tempted to not write anything, and then they can just come hunt me down. I'm not phased. I'll be waiting.
My response to their taking beef with the non-review: "I was just copying your online pres...

Crumb's single, "Bones" is an experimental genre-bending jazz-infused indie pop prize.
The glimmering accents perfectly compliment the chilled out guitar strums as the drums energetically shuffle to and fro. The twists and turns that "Bones" emit le...

Hello Ocho's "In Portugese" is the laid back experimental orchestral pop song we've all been waiting for.
The unassuming shifts and layers makes for an interesting and engaging composition as the vocals drift in and out. The tempo takes on a frantic...

Leapling's new single "Alabaster Snow" is unrelenting and tenacious indie rock.
There is a delicate balance between the calmer vocals paired with the high-energy instruments. From beginning the end, there is a constant stream of tireless musicianshi...

I love the deeper experimental direction that Steady Sun has gone in.
"Reverie" showcases the grittier and psych-focused style that Steady Sun has embraced, and I'm very thankful for that. With its same relaxed demeanor but more rock-driven sound, t...

When two of my favorite bands combine forces, I know we're all in for a real treat.
My Body's track "BKNY pt. 2" has been remixed by Zula, and it's nothing less than stellar. With its eccentric beat paired with the rhythmic synth section, what resul...

Leapling's new track "N.E.R.V.E." is a perfect preview of what to expect from their upcoming album.

Are you as looney for Leapling as I am?
