“Something keeps me coming back here, leaving me for worse”
Screaming from emo's raw, restless core: Superdestroyer's NCTV Vol. 2 tears into addiction and love-hate relationships with riffs and synths for fans of Anamanaguchi and Jeff Rosenstock. Start-Track's Start the Track: Vol. IX compiles indie gems with half the proceeds going to Slovak homeless charity Vagus, alongside their Sampler 2023 celebrating a great first year. The Darts' Hoping for a Green Miracle brims with isolation and emotion, while their Nailguns and Daggers goes darker and more desolate, and This Year Is a Gay Autumn's demo rounds things out with raw bedroom skramz energy.
“For fans of riffs and synths, this album is a must listen! RIYL: Anamanaguchi, Jeff Rosenstock, Slow Joy, Mystery Dungeons, Full Blown Meltdown”
“As if the angry music you listened to in high school grew up and started listening to NPR”
