Today Shaw puts her restlessly inquisitive personality to use as the lead vocalist for one of the most exciting bands in rock. Dry Cleaning’s debut album,
New Long Leg, is due out April 2nd after a pair of 2019 EPs that hit like telepathic firecrackers from another planet. Shaw’s unique lyrical style is a big part of what sets Dry Cleaning apart from a thousand other 21st-century U.K. guitar bands. On songs like the recent single “Strong Feelings,” she recites disjointed monologues in an eerily calm tone over dank, arty rumbles courtesy of guitarist Tom Dowse, bassist Lewis Maynard, and drummer Nick Buxton: “Just an emo dead-stuff collector/Things come to the brain/I spent £17 on mushrooms for you. … I’ve been thinking about eating that hot dog for hours …” The meanings of her words can be obscure or startlingly direct, disturbing or quite funny, and the music is always charged with intense feeling.

Human Impact, the New York based band featuring Jim Coleman (Cop Shoot Cop), Chris Spencer (Unsane), Chris Pravdica (Swans), and Phil Puleo (Cop Shoot Cops/Swan), has released an eight song EP, dubbed
EP01, via Ipecac Recordings.
A video for âRecognitionâ debuted this morning, with singer/guitar player Chris Spencer sharing the experience that sparked the song: âDo you ever feel like youâre being watched?

In the early Eighties, Washington, D.C. s music scene was pretty clearly split between longhairs clinging to the supercharged Seventies sounds of heshers like Zeppelin and Sabbath and a new crew of short-cropped kids diving headfirst into the hardcore punk scene of Minor Threat, Bad Brains, Black Flag and more.
It was during this time that Scott Wino Weinrich launched his now-iconic stoner doom crew the Obsessed in nearby Potomac, Maryland. His band s heavy-as-hell headbanging sound (and biker-tough looks) should have put him in diametric opposition to the hardcore kids except that Wino s no bullshit approach (and genuine love of both heavy metal and punk) actually

From restaurant themed sound art to saz led psych jams and pogoing black metal, Daryl Worthington finds the tape scene continues to shine a light throughout these weird days
A/C Repair School is the Brazilian duo of Rafael de Toledo Pedroso and Carolina Simionato (who also makes music as Soft Verges), and on new album Órfãs, they produce something remarkably lucid from the barest instrumentation. Their songs deal with abandonment (the album’s title translates to orphans), and not just in the lyrics – it’s inscribed into the very music itself. Simionato’s vocals on ‘bom demais pra ser mentira’ have a torch song quality, but pulled into the fuzz it feels fragile and isolated – a love song broadcast into the void.
