The Lublin, Poland band Ohyda have a ragged, feral sound — not quite blackened crust, but gruesome and noisy all the same, with drums that sometimes cross over into outright dance-punk. This stuff is dark and wild and exceedingly angry (at Polish right-wingers, specifically). Ohyda’s upcoming album has a mouthful of a title — Pan […]
Video: Megan Thee Stallion “Plan B”
Fuck me, nah, fuck you! Megan Thee Stallion resorts to “Plan B” on the latest single off her forthcoming album. Over a flip of Jodeci and Wu-Tang’s “Freek’n You (Remix), the Houston hottie scathingly addresses a fuck boy while confidently preaching self-love and independence. The newly released video displays Hot Girl Meg stripping down to […]
Video: Blk Odyssy Ft. Benny The Butcher, George Clinton “Benny’s Got A Gun”
BLK still been the new gold. New Jersey musican Juwan Elcock returns to his Blk Odyssy alias on his new single featuring Benny The Butcher and George Clinton. Anchored by both Blk Odyssy’s soul and rock-infused soundbed and the Parliament-Funkadelic legend’s funky hook, Benny preaches street survival by any means. The powerful video depicts a […]
Sada Baby Ft. Snoop Dogg “2 Freaks”
Deuces! It’s still no love for hoes on Sada Baby’s new record featuring Snoop Dogg. Produced by Dux Jones and Jason Bruyninga, the “Whole Lotta Choppas” hitmaker and the Doggfather double-up with their freaky tales. The bouncy track samples E-40 and The Click’s 1995 classic “Be About Yo Paper”. “2 Freaks” is off Sada Baby’s […]
Life’s Question – “Mellow My Mind”
Chicago hardcore face-stompers Life’s Question have been around for a few years, and they’ve already built up a fearsome reputation within the genre, but they haven’t released a full-length yet. That’s about to change. Later this summer, Life’s Question will release their debut album World Full Of…. The band previewed the album back in December […]
Cults – “The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine (Anymore)” (Frankie Valli Cover)
Cults have a new song from the soundtrack for the audio-only post-apocalyptic vampire drama Impact Winter, an Audible original that apparently is not related to the video game of the same name. The song is a cover of “The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine (Anymore),” a song originally cut by Frankie Valli in 1965, made famous […]
Stream Terminal Nation & Kruelty’s Insanely Heavy Split EP The Ruination Of Imperialism
You wouldn’t necessarily expect a band from Arkansas to have much in common with one from Tokyo, but apparently thundering riffage is a universal language. Arkansas’ Terminal Nation and Tokyo’s Kruelty are among the heaviest bands on the planet, and they both stomp around on the porous border between hardcore and death metal. They’ve just […]
Stream Australian Screamo Shit-Rippers Gil Cerrone’s Intense New EP Coronach
Gil Cerrone are a screamo quintet from Melbourne whose spin on the genre’s flip-the-fuck-out tendencies errs on the long and ambitious side. Coronach, their new EP, is bookended by a pair of six-minute songs that extend and expand well beyond their initial impact. Half the time Gil Cerrone sound more like “post-hardcore” than “screamo” if […]
Stream SUSS’ Surprise New Heat Haze EP
Last year, the ambient country group SUSS released a new EP called Night Suite, kicking off a new era after the 2020 album Promise. Today, they’re back with a surprise followup called Heat Haze, billed as the first in a series of 2022 releases. Here’s what each member had to say about the EP: After […]
Polo G – “Distraction”
Last year, the reliably excellent Chicago sing-rapper Polo G released a great album and topped the Billboard Hot 100. He also got arrested for carrying a concealed weapon in Los Angeles, which means he’s now facing a felony charge. That last event figures heavily into Polo’s new single “Distraction,” which Polo just released today. Polo […]
