Post-Trash’s Khagan Aslanov chats with Berlin-by-Baltimore art rock group Horse Lords about the influence of Just Intonation, Sacred Harp, a new cast of players, and pure intuition on their latest record Demand to Be Taken to Heaven Alive!

So-called “negative” hardcore band Gunner is the successor to another Perth band, Semtex 87, with a similar aim, if you will: to vomit forth music so cacophonous, discordant and abhorrent to most that it will repel and chase them away.

It’s no secret we here at Post-Trash are big fans of Joyeria, and we’re delighted to premiere the leadoff track and first single from the London-by-Canada band’s upcoming LP Decay Decay Decay.

There’s been a lot of music released so far this year and someone on the internet might as well make a list out of it. Everyone has different taste.

Nashville’s Styrofoam Winos have been a part of some of the biggest alt-country comeups in the last five years. Their new album Any River is an infectious, intimate slate of tracks blending folk-country tradition and the modernity of collective avant garde songwriting technique.

One could argue that Souled American’s Sanctions is the most unfashionable album ever released. It’s their first album in thirty years, and the Scott Tuma-less band has made an album that’s weird, spectral, and haunted, with none of the concessions to trends that usually mar reunion albums.

Moontype’s second full length I Let the Wind Push Down on Me is as emotionally charged as its predecessor. It plays like a document of McCarthy’s twenties, shaped by loneliness, self-reinvention, and addiction.

Beck Zegans has shown great depth and strength through her previous songwriting in Goo. Her solo debut Engraving of Armor highlights and accentuates that skill, as these songs travel down emotional paths filled with determination and warmth.

Just in time for the next heatwave, Chicago’s Sprite return with Spriite, their exceptionally titled second EP. Recorded at Radon Ranch with engineering from Ben Grigg), the quartet tear through four bent and detached songs, bringing a hazy mix of shoegaze, slacker pop, and alternative rock muscle.

Lupo Città’s INVERNO is true “band” music — not a singer/songwriter-led team, but collectively built, with the sum being multiplied by the powers of its individual parts. 

The Chicago project’s jammy cluster of interesting rock music is intensely charming and nonnegotiably on the jukebox all night long. Red Hot Photo Committee contains punk’s out-of-fucks heart with a rock n’ roll soul.

With their latest, Bullseye have slowly, deliberately shown us that rehashing the past means something if you're fearless, fun, and dedicated to the things that always work.
