“Few songwriters can successfully contextualize large issues with the humor and humanity of Padilla. There are shadows of the warped sensibilities of Frank Zappa and George Clinton throughout his songs, a similar singular vibe: literally no-one else could have made this album.”

“Antonick works a voodoo jukebox blues, draped in a mossy late-summer haze, mingling doo-wop and barbershop tones with dusty, settled cedarn folk and bleary, country-tinged garage rock.”

“Golden Boots’ take on the track seems to bring the conversational lyrics to the fore, accompanied by a classically alt-country backing of slide guitar, banjo and the steady tick of the drumbeat. Like the best cover versions, it highlights the qualities of the original, while simultaneously re-imagining it in Golden Boots’ own image.”

“Dealing with such issues as the perils of adulthood and the struggle to find meaning in a 40-hour work week, the 15-track collection is the group’s most realized work yet.”

“Golden Boots have a new album in the works that’s coming out in early 2022, and in the meantime they’re doing a “summer singles” series of non-album tracks recorded with a few friends, just for fun. The first one is a cover of Alan Parson’s Projects’ ‘Eye in the Sky’ featuring Phoenician singer/songwriter Lonna Kelley on vocals and Alex McMahon (Gral Brothers/Desert Records) on pedal and lap steel guitars.”

“Antonick brings doomed love to new life with a lush mix of tender romanticism, yearning melancholy, and alluring melody.”

“Long Island’s The Tin Can Collective are not an easy band to pin down. They’ve got a new LP, ‘Axiomatic Alarm Clock,’ and across the two singles they’ve released so far, they touch on indie rock, emo, folk, heartland rock, and more, all seen through a lo-fi DIY lens.”

“Exploring themes of self love, gender euphoria, and body positivity, Reversels is the band we need now!”

“Rigid gender norms suck. Pony Hunt’s cosmic doo-wop rules.”

“The accompanying video is trippy and dizzying- a lot like working your face off at a job you hate and coming home from work with a fully melted brain.”
