I scream, you scream, we all scream for Drugs! 🥣💊🧸  Today is release day for Drugs and their debut LP Episodic. Fair warning, it’s a wild ride. A rock thriller that is just as much akin to Devo as it is Faith No More and Deerhoof. Take off your crocs and have a seat on the couch, […]

Summer has a way of naturally sugarcoating everything from our playlists to our general outlook on life. Nothing wrong with that, right? The excitement of romance, the vibrancy of long nights and seasonal nostalgia have painted a picture that’s become a fixture of our lives, we long for it, for better or for worse. Because of […]

When Okey Dokey told us they were no longer a band, we felt devastated. It wasn’t the best news to hear after signing them to a record deal. We called them, texted them, emailed them, and we waited. After several days, we got a reply. “Sorry, bud! Bad service out here. We’re still a band, […]

it’s a pop song pulled back down to street level, where it feels like a conversation with a friend instead of a message from above. That’s always been part of BOYO’s charm—the way the personality comes through. It’s a song about leaving things behind, but sometimes that can be one of the best moves you […]

Out now: Nik Freitas’ delightful new album, Cavalo Morto. The title means “dead horse” in Portuguese and the album’s gloomy cover art depicts a weathered pianist chugging along at his craft while horses fall from the top of the instrument. It’s a reference to the inescapable mundanity of being a professional artist, a glamorized yet […]

Today is release day for BOYO 👁👁 We are pleased to share the new BOYO You Don’t See Me EP.

It’s an exciting foreshadowing of future recordings and we are stoked to […]

The first single from the new record by Dustin Lovelis is here, and it’s an open-handed slap-to-the-face of rock n roll therapy.

[…]

The Alternative […]

“What is Ben Collins so afraid of?” The 32-year-old Ypsilanti-based engineer, producer, and musician set an intention to find an answer to this very question during an ayahuasca ceremony led by shamans in the jungle of Tulum, Mexico. Collins had never dabbled in psychedelics before this experience. (He jokes that his first experience with marijuana […]

SO. We’ve decided to put out some records again! It’s been since 2013, and a lot has changed. Made some babies. Lost some friends. Moved around. Changed the logo. Lived a little, cried a bit, thought about how we’d give it another go and we are giving it another go. Now we’re wiping the dust […]
