Hard to believe that Melechesh's Enki came out 10 years ago. Man this track kicks ass.

"Lonely People With Power" is a return to Deafheaven's heavier sound after 2021's more shoegaze-oriented "Infinite Granite". This album balances those ferocious black metal elements with moments of melodic beauty. I've been listening non-stop.

Papa Roach's The Paramour Sessions has always been a guilty fave of mine. Not a huge fan of the band overall but this was also one of the best performances I've seen live.

Jacoby is a professional and knows how to work the crowd. Great rock 'n roll album. Mock me all you like.

the split with Calgary's Mortality Rate and Judiciary (last 3 tracks on this album) is exactly the kind of hardcore I love. Bracing and angry.

I just love these guys. The Men - Buyer Beware is a raucous return to form. Raw, urgent, and loud, it's a 34-minute sonic trip that proves these Brooklyn garage punks are still at the top of their game.
