Not sure how it happened, but on a relatively nondescript weekend in August, a torrent of great new shoegaze and dream pop was unleashed on an unsuspecting populace (including us).

Headliners this weekend include biatlón (premiered on Krissy's Drowned in a Sea of Sound), Looprider, chokecherry, […]
Looks like the new year is fully underway, and we've got a raft, nay, an aircraft carrier full of new tunes freshly or recently released, and we're gonna celebrate them. Headliners this week include Cosmopaark (reviewed here), YEAHRS, and Sydney's Trillion (pictured above). Each of these has unleashed a new album, and each approach the sonic summit differently, but no less capably. Each deserves consideration on your shopping list, we'll […]
E'en this close to the Christmas holidays, and some top artists are pushing through to win 2022 before the calendar turns. That's pretty boss. Headliners and first among equals: For Tracy Hyde (pictured above) unlock new LP Hotel Insomnia, mastered by Mark Gardener of Ride, just under the wire for AOTY consideration. That's pushing the envelope, but FTH never really cared for your rules anyway. But there's so much more […]

It's got to be an embarrassment when the year is less than two weeks old, and the album of the year is released. Surely could have allowed others to catch up? No, Tallies dropped their self-titled debut album on Hand Drawn Dracula, and suddenly everyone else is on notice. This capable crew mines a vein of rich dream pop in the sweet spot between The Sundays and Innocence Mission, then […]
