The remnants of a relationship will lay shattered until someone chooses to sweep it away or examine each shard for closure. Each one is a prism, refracting its history into distinct stories. On her new single, premiering on Grimy Goods today, G.Smith tries to make sense of a breakup, riding her feelings into an ocean […]

Buttertones have shared a new video for one of their latest songs, “Denial You Win Again.” The post-punk ballad is one of 10 tracks featured on the Buttertones’ new album, ‘Jazzhound’. It sounds like something you would hear Morrissey serenade with sexy sadness. There is a charming romanticism in the song, similar to the video […]

The title of Polartropica’s debut album, due out tomorrow and available to stream below, makes clear where the local artist is in her career.

New York-born trio Guards continue to put the nail in the coffin of their six-year hiatus with each new single they put out—with the upbeat howler “You Got Me” the latest offering from their long overdue sophomore album Modern Hymns.

Volcanoes are part of a subset of natural wonders that can become natural disasters in an instant. Luckily, there are many ways to predict an eruption, so rarely is it a total surprise, unless you just weren’t paying attention. The latest single from October’s Child proves that they’re paying attention, even if the disaster is […]

The foundation of today’s exclusive premiere is an elegant combination of cello and Greek mythology. “The Boy Who Melts the Sun” is a reimagining of the tale of Icarus by EMÆL (ee-my-el), taken from their forthcoming full-length, Glasswork, and it is chamber pop at its finest.
