Weight Shift

Elseetoss

Valdrin - The Cincinnati, Ohio-based group balances swords and sorcery imagery with tangible plot advancements, to the point that you can read the lyrics of their latest album, 2023’s Throne of the Lunar Soul, track-by-track and come away with the jist of it. However, that’d only be a portion of their appeal. Though the Valdrin lore is a traditional hero's tale, it’s recounted via a nostalgia-drenched melodic black metal tome.

Glyders

Two Planes

Formed in Chicago by partners Josh Condon and Eliza Weber, Glyders make maximal minimal rock & roll with nocturnal mystery pulsing in the mix, cutting above rigorous roadhouse fare with sounds that twist and grind on their classic inspirations. Joined by Joe Seger on drums, Glyders’ high lonesome way is mellow but nervy, hip-shaking and deep – a multicolored trip to the ongoing beat of American weirdness.

Their second LP, “Forever,” is out November 21st, 2025 on Drag City:
Forever’s spirit is high and tight, its sinews rumbling with communal joy as Glyders’ power-trio formation, in it ‘for life,’ grooves deep into their own thing. Shuffling the deck with road-tested jams, Forever hits with the energy of a first album – which it kinda is, now that founders Josh & Eliza have met their true other, the relentless traps-man Joe Seger. Forever starts now!

Coral Grief

Idle County

Star Anise

Coral Grief is the Seattle-based dream pop project of Lena Farr-Morrissey (vocals, bass, synth) Sam Fason (guitar, synth) and Cam Hancock (drums). Rich guitars, glowing synths, driving bass, and ethereal vocals swirl around skeletal drum beats to create a textured, intricate sound that is experimental, playful, and catchy.

The band first emerged onto the Seattle scene with thier self-titled EP, released by Seattle tape label 

 in May 2021. Recorded entirely by Farr-Morrissey and Fason in 2020, the the six tracks contrast themes of isolation and stagnation over propulsive drum machine loops and swirling, lush compositions. The band's sophomore release 

, released February 24, 2023, expands on the trio’s strengths, with more energetic contrasts and vibrant production. Full of double meanings, these songs revolve around feelings of personal and collective stagnation, while also exploring treasure maps amidst the times of disorder and desperation. The first record to feature drummer Cam Hancock, the six songs see the band explore new dynamic territory while continuing to deliver mesmerizing performances with lush, textured production.

Coral Grief toured extensively through the western US, including festival dates at Treefort Music Fest, Capitol Hill Block Party and South by Southwest. The trio has played some of Seattle’s most iconic venues, opening for acclaimed artists like Indigo de Souza, Chastity Belt, and Luna. With dynamic live performances that seamlessly shift between driving, motorik rhythms and enveloping ambient atmospherics, Coral Grief continues to push forward into exciting new sonic territory.

Cash Langdon

Cash Langdon - Birmingham, AL - cosmic / folk / indie rock

Birmingham indie rocker Cash Langdon has two records to his name, but the most recent, Dogs, is the first where he is joined by his band Meadow Dust (bassist Matt Whitson and drummer Reagan Bruce). Their fuzzy take on heavy country rock recalls Neil Young & Crazy Horse and gives off the heat of Langdon’s native Birmingham. Like Young, his voice is simultaneously earnest and world-weary, but there’s a sense of humor too, and a resignation to keeping on. The songs are beautiful, searing, southern-gothic testaments to the ongoing violence of being awake to the world around you and the resolve to stay awake anyway.

The psychedelic-tinged rock band Wieuca has always kept a platform-wearing foot firmly planted in Athens as a creative base and source of inspiration. Spanning genres from garage rock and indie punk to emo, you may never know exactly what you’re going to get sonically, but the colorful and unmistakable art of band member Will Ingram provides a solid identity for Wieuca. - Flagpole (ATHENS)

Dari Bay

Graham Hunt

On new album Longest Day of the Year, Dari Bay is a perpetually shifting art project posing as songs, an ongoing thought experiment disguised as a band. Burlington, Vermont-based artist Zachary James launched Dari Bay as a solo vehicle in 2015, acting as sole songwriter, producer, player of every instrument, and exacting architect of how each sound was placed. Early output was raw and often unhinged, but Longest Day of the Year finds Dari Bay assuming a new form as James folds his experimental spirit into what at first appear to be neutral, unassuming tunes.- - - - - -

Graham Hunt - ...Since he was a teenager, he’s been working at perfecting the form, writing songs that get to the heart of what makes Midwestern guitar pop so essential, and doing it while sidestepping any of the dead-end creative moves that weigh down many in the genre.

Nowhere is this balancing act as clear as on the Madison-based artist’s new LP, Try Not To Laugh. It’s a record where breakbeats coexist with anthemic choruses and synth runs go toe-to-toe with acoustic guitars. From start to finish, the song stays at the forefront. It’s been the throughline for Hunt, who has played in street punk bands and power pop bands and hardcore bands and the underrated Midnight Reruns, who pushed a distinctively Upper Heartland kind of songcraft, one that led to opening slots for The Replacements and a diehard following of Wisconsin alcoholics.
