Album artwork

TW: “The guitar tracks on this song are sourced from a single take resampled over and over. The lyrics were written about a recording session that couldn’t happen because of a huge storm that took the power from East Nashville. The storm itself provided imagery to express feeling disconnected from close friends, and frustrated with external forces getting in the way of mending the relationship.”

My Bloody Valentine echoes roll all over
this bizarre and intriguing shoegaze jam.

PILLOW QUEENS – Amplifed Irish Pop Royals Are Big Girls

Posted on by JL

Daily noise that works faster than a stream of caffeine

3 September 2025

Band: PILLOW QUEENS
Who: All-female Irish indie pop trio.
They have 3 albums, so far, on their CV.

FFO: The Beaches, Haim and The Beths.

Track: BE A BIG GIRL

“Usually people expect ‘being a big girl’ to mean keeping your chin up, not making a fuss,
and politely ignoring the fact you’re being shoved towards the door. For us, it’s the opposite.
It’s staying exactly where you are when you’re told to leave, making a fuss, and taking up
more space in the process.

Living in Ireland, making music here, and not hopping on the first flight out is already
an act of stubborn optimism. And yeah, sometimes you’re crying in Lidl or planning a
better life in Australia, but at least you’re still standing. That’s the kind of ‘big girl’ we’re interested in being.”

Throw your pillows in the air,
and be a good girl/boy, whatever
you want to be, people.

THUMPER – Badass Irish Rockers Drop Scorching Slam ‘THE DRIP’

Posted on by JL

Daily noise that works faster than a stream of caffeine

23 August 2025

Band: THUMPER
Who: Rowdy rockers from Ireland, who released their
debut album Delusions Of Grandeur in 2022.

Track: THE DRIP
Lead single from their upcoming
second album. Details TBA.

“The Drip is a song about tour burnout and relationship strain. The song was written almost a line at a time, small lyrics jotted down at different moments on tour, in different cities, different head spaces. The title refers to that slow accumulation, drip torture was on my mind, but also an IV drip – something that keeps you alive, hooked to your veins. In this case my deep love for making music, and the people I make it with.Best headphones deals

The song has no chorus – no release. But it’s joyous and builds with momentum with each passing section, even as the lyrics seem to become more abstract. This conflict between love for the thing, and that thing destroying you – that’s The Drip. ‘Poke to find a vein, flick the bag’.”

Mental guitars + madcap drummer + psychotic vocalist = SICK SHIT
