Hook-addicted and gloriously loud: Baby Combat delivers fuzzy, hook-led guitar songs with nervous energy and a scrappy post-punk edge across a brilliant double album, while Red Cavalry writhes with infectious jangly indie-pop energy and McCarthy-style lyrical agitation on Popaganda. Trademark Issues offer a defiant indie-pop difference with irreverent brilliance, and Publicity Department crank up crunchy guitars and two-part harmonies with power pop influences distorted through 90s alt-rock sensibilities. Danila Kozyrev rounds things out with a psychedelic and catchy ride through 60s and 80s influences.

“The allegorical donkey in the lion's skin, but it's a bear that wants to be an eagle that wants to be a bear... who cried wolf.”
“A retro-flavored ode to finding the seeds of a larger life in the small things that surround you.”
“Crunchy guitars and two-part vocal harmonies; power pop influences distorted through 90s alt rock sensibilities.”
“you’ll find elegantly crafted and crooned songs, with the ‘wall of sound’ created not by an orchestra but by a host of different guitars and a pulsating rhythm section.”
