They’re not quite heavy enough to be metal per se, but this album’s boot-to-face attitude is can go toe-to-toe with any number of aggressive

    Kiddy Pool - Super Pony Perv Plus EP

    The Needle Drop

    Super Pony Perv Plus EP by Kiddy Pool I’m certain this debut EP of New York experimental rock trio Kiddy Pool contains the most batshit song title of the year: “I Guh Guh Got A$$bergers from a Toilet Seat.” Let that be some indication of what the band’

    Bent Knee - "Being Human"

    The Needle Drop

    Shiny Eyed Babies by Bent Knee Grand, serene, and progressive, I’m loving this track from the forthcoming Bent Knee record, Shiny Eyed Babies.

    #$ - Hash Money

    The Needle Drop

    Hash Money by #$ Previously mentioned hip hop duo #$ has just put out its first project on Smokers Cough Records, the eight-track-long mini-album Hash Money. It’s a breezy listen, clocking in a little short of the half hour mark, but it showcases everything that makes its two members so great.
