Kamal. – How The Fuck Does Everybody Else Manage?
Kamal taps into the quiet chaos of modern coping on “How The Fuck Does Everybody Else Manage?” — a stripped-back, brutally honest track that turns late-night doubt into something strangely comforting.
Introducing : supermodel*
There’s a special kind of confidence in not trying to be cool, and Beanie — the 24-year-old brain behind supermodel* — has turned that philosophy into a surprisingly addictive debut statement. Inspired by early Talking Heads doing absolutely nothing until it somehow became iconic, supermodel* operates in a blissful state of anti-intent. No grand lore, no mood boards, no “this record explores…” press-release nonsense. Just instinct, taste, and a healthy disregard for expectations.

American Lips – On Strike!
Montréal/Los Angeles trio American Lips return with On Strike!, a razor-sharp art-rock album mixing absurdist humor, jagged riffs, and sardonic wit. Out via Ancient Fashion Records, it’s a noisy, analog rebellion against overwork and collapse — think Wire meets Devo on a caffeine bender.
Fruity Loops: Peach
Lemin.’s ‘Cookie Dough Skin’ glows like a sun-ripened peach — warm, velvety, and emotionally lush.
Minot – Walls / People Pleaser
Missoula’s Minot unleash Walls / People Pleaser, a scrappy lo-fi garage punk 7-inch that pairs fuzzed-out workplace despair with a deranged slice of 60s pop. Dual songwriting, DIY charm, and percussive chaos make this Lathe Cut a beautifully unhinged listen.
