Doctor Steevo “Another Day” This Mutoid Doctor Steevo is back with his bizarre, creative, amazing dense music. Think Depeche Mode recorded through a blender, with the darkness super accented. Put it this way: it’s 3AM, you awaken for no reason, …

Binoy “Hunger” Binoy is going to be the new, huge hip hop/pop star. And he knows it. Name dropping Kanye and saying that he’s like Kanye when he had the hunger. Binoy has that hunger, the voice, the look, and …
ieuan “Virtual Reality” Childstar This is a great electro-pop. The stuttering way the song begins just totally pulled me, and ieuan’s breathless vocals make you sympathize with him, no matter what happens. As the artist states: The song is about …
Lana Del Rey “Season Of The Witch” From The Motion Picture “Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark” This is an amazing version of the old Donovan song. del Rey manages to add sexuality to a scary song, something she …
Angel Olsen “All Mirrors” All Mirrors The new single from Angel Olsen’s highly anticipated album has dropped, and it is probably the best song of a year of really good music. The woman I considered single handedly started the “Sad …
Lina Tullgren “Bad At Parties” Free Cell This song really gets to me; I am just like this at parties: even when surrounded by a crowd, I feel as if I’m the only one. Tullgren sings songs full of pain …

UV Rays “Faster Now” The Right Stuff UV Rays have resurrected and transformed the great sound of 90’s emo with updated life and sound quality that is so good. Coming from Brooklyn, of course, what started out as a bedroom …
HUNGER “My Shirt, Your Dress” Sounding like a European version of Imagine Dragons (no, I’m not sure what that means, except the continental bands tend to push the envelope more), this Austrian band has tremendous songs, and the lead singer …
Troi Irons “Hold On To Your Heart” What a powerful, breathless voice Troi Irons has. She just pours this emotion out, and the vocals sound like they are coming from a broken heart, but a heart that is not going …

AM:PM “Nature Awakes/When Titans Fell” A Mountain Peaks’ Myth This is pure epic melodic death metal/deathcore from Switzerland. AM:PM know when to be beautiful and when to be ass-kicking killer shit, which most bands have never figured out to do …
Tetchy “Fascist” What a great killer punk band that pulls no punches and really nails the coffin shut on all those fakes out there, those privileged assholes who think they know what’s going on, yet are really fascists. When I …
Angelica Garcia “It Don’t Hinder Me” Angelica Garcia comes from San Gabriel Valley, CA, of Salvadorian and Mexican ancestry, now living in Richmond, VA, but never far from her roots. She makes ass-kicking, take-no-prisoners rock n roll, singing from her …

Mount Sharp “Apostate” What a tremendous, eclectic, almost nerdy song. I love this band. Their sound is so crystal clear, their vision a lot less clear, which is the way it should be. Here is their bio (oh, it explains …

Asher Knight “Step Back” Step Back What a great voice Asher Knight has. Coming from Bradford, UK, Knight just has this impressive ability to deliver a song, something that a lot of people don’t understand. What I’m saying is, the …
Anton Barbeau “Berliner Grotesk” The most unusual and last true genius left is how Anton Barbeau has been described. I consider him as if Robyn Hitchcock and Nina Hagen had a child raised on Jacques Brel and Kurt Weill and …
Fig’s Vision “Boy Pressure” Choo Choo Fig’s Vision is an odd band, with a sound that is so unusual, and the video for the song may even be odder. With a sound that seems to be a hybrid electronica and …
