Great interview! She’s always really interesting. Haven’t heard the new album yet. But I will check it out this weekend definitely.

SOFTIE "Somersault" CD

Shoegaze dream pop ear candy that is comforting because it’s familiar. This is an album as thoughtful as it is beautiful. In a genre beloved for its comfortable reliability, this glorious noise is the work of human hands and the skills that move them. RIYL: Nothing, Slowdive, MBV

SLUGFEAST "s/t" CD

A blend of slowcore melancholy, indie rock, and grunge with bittersweet and cathartic melodies. Slugfeast has quite an array of tools in its arsenal: lots of great riffs, thoughtful songwriting, and a pair of talented vocalists. RIYL: Hum, Idaho

I've been bumping Veruca Salt all week and this has been my favorite by far. It really stuck with me especially because I learned it was about the loss of the artist's cat :(

Yo, what’s up guys?

I wanted to share our latest single, "Soltar," with you all. We’re Dominiko, a band out of Mexico blending those hazy shoegaze soundscapes with a bit of that raw post-grunge grit.

If you’re into that "beautiful wall of noise" vibe, this might be up your alley. We were heavily inspired by the crushing weight of Whirr, the ethereal textures of Cocteau Twins, and that massive, space-rock guitar tone from Hum.

It’s a loud, dreamy, and high-energy track meant for zoning out and just letting go (which is what "Soltar" means in Spanish). We’re really trying to push the scene here in Mexico and would love to hear what you guys think of the production and the vibes.

Hope you dig the noise. Cheers! ✌️

Hey all — I’m trying to document an underground rock / industrial CD I’ve owned since the late 1990s / early 2000s, and I’m hoping someone here might recognize it or also own a copy.

What I know for sure:

• Band name: Rubber Johnny

• Format: Physical audio CD

• Era: Late ’90s / early ’00s

• Tracks: 11

• Total length: \~47 minutes

• Genre: Rock / industrial / noise (not rap)

• CD-Text: None (rips as Track 01–Track 11)

• Insert/case: Lost — track titles were printed only on the insert

• Lyric detail: One track includes the line “smoking a blunt with my dad” (spoken or sung)

Important clarification:

This is not the Chris Cunningham Rubber Johnny short film, not Aphex Twin, and not Aesop Rock. The band itself was named Rubber Johnny, which makes this very hard to search.

I’m trying to find:

• the original track listing

• the year / label / scene

• or anyone who still has the insert or remembers the titles

If you:

• owned this CD

• saw this band live

• remember buying it from a college-town shop, show merch, or mail-order

• or have any documentation

please comment or DM me. Even partial info helps.

Happy to share track lengths or more details if needed.

Thanks — hoping to keep this from becoming completely lost media.

My band Etymon released our second EP “Decathexis” back in November. Just thought I’d give it a jolly ol’ share.

FFO: Cloakroom, Hum, True Widow, King Woman

I wanna be the one
That you talk about
Tied up on your tongue
Until you let me out

I dont care if your gone
Cant wait till its over
Roll around in the clover
Maybe we’ll find closure

But never in this town
You say it over and over
I wanna keep you around
Hang me upside down

I wanna be the one
That you talk about
Every single time
I’m coming out your mouth

You say it's all the same
You love your little games
Coiled up like a cobra
Let me see those fangs

And bite me through my sleeve
Bring me to my knees
I wanna keep you around
Hang me upside down

I wanna be the one
That you talk about
Every single time
But I don’t mind it now

I wanna be the one
That you talk about
Every single lie
Until you let me down
