LISTEN: The fin. – ‘Pale Blue’

The latest offering from Japanese trio The fin. is a tumbling meander through euphoric sun-bleached psychedelia. ‘Pale Blue’ is a velvety coalescence of reverb-heavy guitars and syrupy vocals from frontman Yuto Uchino, resulting in a musical trip worthy of the…

LISTEN: Soccer Mommy – ‘Out Worn’

Nashville-born NYU student Soccer Mommy (aka Sophie Allison) releases debut mini-album Collection this summer, after releasing songs on Bandcamp for the past few years. Her tender, harrowing exploration of adulthood and relationships is something indie music has been waiting for. New…
