One of TV On The Radio’s earliest recordings was a radical reinvention of a Pixies song, so it’s kind of appropriate that Tunde Adebimpe has now covered a Breeders song too. Adebimpe has released a sparse and gorgeous cover of “Off You” from the Breeders’ 2002 album Title TK. Notably, Big Thief covered the same […]

Stream Ovlov Frontman Steve Hartlett’s New Experimental Excursion 1/2
Last year’s Buds was another ridiculously solid release from the fuzzed-out Connecticut indie band Ovlov.

The eight-song collection is called 1/2; both the title and the cover art are a […]
Nine Of Swords – “THE PAVEMENT”
The Philly hardcore band Nine Of Swords announced BEYOND THE SWORDS, their first album in six years, by sharing its incendiary opener “WITH HELP.” Today they’re back with the album’s second track, an equally furious two-minute stomper called “THE PAVEMENT.” The song’s crushing power-chord riffage and rapid-fire drum action edge up against crossover thrash, but […]

Stream Sharon Van Etten’s New Album We’ve Been Going About This All Wrong
In presenting her first album since 2019’s Remind Me Tomorrow, Sharon Van Etten took an unusual approach. She released two singles before announcing the album, “Porta” and “Used To It,” but neither one is on the tracklist. Instead, the whole LP is debuting today as a complete document — 10 new SVE songs, unheard until […]
Warthog’s New Self-Titled EP Will Rip Your Face Off And Gargle Your Blood
New York punks Warthog have a mystique about them. Warthog make thundering, scabrous hardcore punk with metal majesty and basement intensity, and they’ve honed their attack to the point where they seem like they’re channeling mystical elements whenever they let loose. Warthog also go long stretches of time without releasing any new music, so whenever […]
