Drugdealer – “Someone To Love”
Back in June, Drugdealer returned with the fantastic Van Morrison homage “Madison.” Today he’s got another soulful ’70s sendup and details on a new LP. The album, Hiding In Plain Sight, is dropping in October and features guest spots from Tim Presley, Kate Bollinger, Bambina, Sedona, and Sean Nicholas Savage. The new single, “Someone To […]
Dead Cross – “Heart Reformer”
These days, Mike Patton apparently isn’t sure whether he’s still a part of Faith No More; he recently said that it’s been “radio silence” between him and the rest of the band ever since his agoraphobia forced him to back out of a tour last year. But Patton does have new music on the way. […]
Benoit & Sergio – “Lost Decade”
Later this week, the dance duo Benoit & Sergio are releasing their first-ever full-length album after a decade-plus of making music together. That album is, perhaps appropriately enough, called Lost Decade, and they’ve shared quite a few singles from it already, including Mind & Drums” last month. Today, they’re sharing the album’s title track, a […]

Mindforce – “Words Fail”
Oh, fuck yeah. It’s happening. The Hudson Valley hardcore monsters Mindforce, a band with an almost supernatural ability to make me stomp like a gorilla, are about to follow their great 2018 album Excalibur with the new full-length New Lords. We’ve already posted Mindforce’s song “Survival Is Vengeance,” and it rips. Now, we get to […]
Archers Of Loaf – “Screaming Undercover”
Last month, Archers Of Loaf announced their first new album in 24 years, Reason In Decline, with the lead single “In The Surface Noise.” Today, the North Carolina band is back with a second single, the high-energy and raucous “Screaming Undercover,” which bandleader Eric Bachmann described as “definitely the heart of the new record.” “It […]

Johanna Warren has a new album on the way, Lessons For Mutants, which is out at the beginning of October. She announced it last month with “I’d Be Orange,” and today Warren has shared its second single, “Piscean Lover.” It’s scratchy and booming, with a great stuttering chorus: “Anyway better not get too existential/ I […]
