The fifth full-length album by Pennsylvania indie alternative group The Districts is one that gets stuck in your head for hours on end. The techno grooves and new-wave synths find their way into every nook and cranny of your brain in the absolute best way possible. Straying slightly from the more mellow tones of previous […]
Album Review: “WHO CARES?” by Rex Orange County
April 3, 2022 by Leave a Comment
One of indie pop’s brightest stars, Rex Orange County has gone from a cult favorite to now one of the genre’s biggest names. I remember the first time I heard him. It was over the summer a few years ago and while on the ride home, the song Loving is Easy came on the AltNation […]

March 29, 2022 by Leave a Comment
by Libby Veatch The first thing I will say about this album is that it is an absolute joy to listen to. To me, it feels like summer afternoons walking around with friends, enjoying the fresh air, and popping into your favorite vinyl store. The modernized Bob Dylan sound combined with a bit of indie […]

Goon has come into their own with their newest EP, Paint By Numbers, Vol 1. The band has come to indie prominence for their infectious melodies and sassy beats, and this EP has all of that and more stuffed into a bite sized, 5 track package. For a very indie album, the attention that can […]

Album Review: “Strawberry” by Caroline Loveglow
March 24, 2022 by Leave a Comment
This was a very simple, yet interesting album. The songs did not have any unique instruments or sound effects, and for the most part, the rhythms and feel of the songs were pretty straightforward. The album was your typical dream pop, good vibes-type album, but that is not necessarily a bad thing. The album had […]

March 24, 2022 by Leave a Comment
Alt-J is back on top with their newest project, The Dream. Complete with everything you’d expect in an Alt-J album, the English rock outfit is trying to branch out as well, taking a 12-track long stroll through a wonderfully odd path that is teeming with potential. A few interesting sound bites and a cornucopia of […]
