New York trio, Cold Sweats’ latest single Hater Failure is an infectiously deranged noise punk anthem, driven by bustling guitar lines and scathing lyrics.

The record is an eclectic beast of punk that ranges from drunken noise rock blasts and surf punk fuzz to walls of corrosive hardcore and … Continue reading Introducing >>> Cold Sweats
Antlered Aunt Lord is entirely Jesse Stinnard, a guy who’s spent the past ten years in Athens, Georgia as a cherished eccentric in a town known for its cherished eccentricities. His first official release is Ostensibly Formerly Stunted (and on fire), and is out on the 30th November and features members of Tunabunny. Melodic, lyrically inventive, reticent, and moving – think the missing link between the Pixies … Continue reading MM Shorts 789: Antlered Aunt Lord

Worn Out Skin is the newest album from Annabelle’s Curse, a genre-busting five-piece alternative folk band that deftly sways from haunting and ethereal melody to unflinching and unforgettable rhythm and riffs.
