52 - Wednesday - Bleeds
When the East Coast crew goes back and forth between kicking in the fuzz and dialing back to alt country mode. I grew up around too much asphalt and concrete to really go for the rural stuff. I like those loud parts, though.

How about shoegaze crossed with not-quite-post punk/hardcore. And I mean sometimes it’s all the way shoegaze and sometimes basically mclusky. But Scottish.

All sorts of fun shoegaze and beyond sounds. A little more primal than some of the acts this year. Almost expect it to go full kosmische, but it’s like it’s too feral to lock in the motorik.
