Hey! Welcome to the new year! This year I aim to highlight my favorite tracks of the week every Monday or Tuesday so here’s the first batch! I hope you find something new to check out.
I’m gonna write a few lines each about my favorite 10 and then just list out the rest but trust me they’re all so good and I would highly recommend giving them all a spin!
Like Lightning by 95COROLLA
95COROLLA came out with another fantastic release to cap the year off on December 31st. The whole EP is full of fantastic skate-y emo energy but the opening track hit me right in the gut and I would highly recommend checking it out ASAP.
Out of Time by Asian Glow
After the announcement that the Asian Glow name would be retired last year… here we are with a whole nother album! And it is absolutely gorgeous crunchy shoegaze-noise-pop-emo goodness. Out of Time was my favorite track.
Pity Party by Western Jaguar
Western Jaguar came out with another amazing track this past week! It’s got a super groovy bassline and really great lyricism.
put pressure by phoneswithchords & Josaleigh Pollett
A wonderful collaboration. If this isn’t the most beautiful thing you’ve ever heard you need to get your ears checked.
Cutthroat by Dialogue
Dialogue was a new find for me but I’m super glad I hopped on board before this release because this is just such a great emo banger.
sleepers disease. by lobsterfight
Another surprise New Years Eve drop with lobsterfights album. If I could pick every song I would but sleepers disease especially got my ear and my heartstrings. Very relatable lyrics.
Shandy in the Graveyard by Panchiko & billy woods
Panchiko teamed up with abstract hip hop extraordinaire billy woods for a super smooth track to lead up to their upcoming album.
Retrace by Creek
This song is soooooooo good and shoutout to Creek for turning me onto the other bands on this split Overhang and Summer of Peril.
Taking Inventory Of A Frozen Lake
Dude, it’s Thursday.
staring contest by June Henry
June Henry released a 35 song long collection of voice memos and it is so beautiful. This song was my absolute favorite. The lyrics are just so so beautiful. I’m going to be playing this on repeat for weeks.
Everything Going Well is a Bad Thing, Right? by All Systems Go
The Band by Dullan & Josh Dare
$2 PBR Tall Boy by Red Deck Wins
Without the Hat, You Are not The Cat by TunnelVision
