Now, then, let’s get into some select new releases from FRIDAY, JUNE 6th, 2025, and let us know if we missed anything worth hearing!
::THE KNOWNS::
Caamp ::COPPER CHANGES COLOR:: As the band’s bio proclaims - “Ohio boys, making beautiful noise.”
Pulp ::MORE:: OG 90s Brit pop.
::THE NEWS::
Finn Wolfhard ::HAPPY BIRTHDAY:: Yes, *that* Finn Wolfhard. If you can make it past the first song that’s just noise from a midi controller, the record blossoms into a nice jangly Brit Pop sound. I bet this sounds good cranked up TO ELEVEN!!!
Hailey Whitters ::CORN QUEEN:: If Zach Top channeled Keith Whitley and Randy Travis, Hailey Whitters is channeling Loretta Lynn and Miranda Lambert. This is good country.
Lifeguard ::RIPPED AND TORN:: Suuuper lo-fi noise reminiscent of 1st wave garage rock with some Brit post-punk vibes seeping through. If it’s good enough for Matador, it’s probably pretty damn good.
