Of all the new singles by rising post punk band, Been Stellar, I think this is their strongest. ”Passing Judgement” is edgy, harkens back to 90s grunge, and has been stuck in my head for weeks now.
“Scream From New York, NY” their debut album is out June, 14th, and is definitely one to have on the radar.

One of my favorite new acts, and if you’re in NYC you can catch them at their debut U.S. show on August 16th that Perfectly Imperfect is presenting with our good friends You Missed It. You can get tickets here if that sounds fun (hint: it will be fun). The big missing link of the whole indie sleaze revival thing has been a bass heavy dubstep inspired act, and Bassvictim has managed to bring this sound back in a way that feels very very fresh rather than merely nostalgia. This is especially apparent on their new single Alice which feels inspired by peak M.I.A, and don’t sleep on the acoustic version.

I'd be remiss if I skipped a chance to plug my band. Formed after my highschool band The Slappys broke up, this vehicle of self expression that my friends and I drive drunkenly down the highway of life has pretty much been the common factor in everything remotely good and true in my life.
The Gimmick is just a sampler for what we hope to achieve this coming year.
Thank you

Poet & songwriter best known as the frontman of “Silver Jews,“ and the lesser known “Purple Mountains,“ Berman has a way of exploring the beauty in the darker aspects of life. Berman tragically took his in 2019. He had such a special way with words both as a poet and a songwriter. My favorite song of his, “Famous Eyes” is linked above.

Founded in 1995, Broadcast was an English band that drew influences from 60s psychedelia, electronic, and experimental music. Following the death of their lead singer in 2011, Broadcast has found a new life and a cult following due to the mystery surrounding the band. I’ve linked my favorite album, Tender Buttons above.

Due to the involvement of the US Military Sponsoring SXSW, many bands and artists have opted to pull out of SXSW as protest for the ongoing genocide and Ethnic Cleansing in Palestine. I’m very proud of my friends from Perfectly Imperfect and Baby’s All Right for dropping out of SXSW, and for standing in solidarity with the people of Palestine. Free Palestine 🍉
