In 2021, Omni’s Philip Frobos released his debut solo album Vague Enough To Satisfy. Since then, he’s been busy with the Atlanta post-punk band, who released Souvenir in 2024 and is currently celebrating the anniversary of their debut album Deluxe with a (you guessed it) deluxe version. Now he’s back to sharing solo stuff, and this time it’s covers of Sorry’s …

In 1984, Anna Domino released the five-track mini-album East And West on Les Disques du Crépuscule, the Belgian indie label that often collaborated with Tony Wilson’s renowned Factory Records.

Hudson Freeman came to my attention at the end of last year, when the Pitchfork critic-turned-music producer Nick Sylvester wrote about him in a Substack post called “This is the song I shared most last year.” Sylvester wrote about a “demo” version of Freeman’s song “If You Know Me” that went viral on Instagram, which is less a demo than …

Stella Lefty must be so happy about all the Ed Sheeran stuff. Before Sheeran submitted to billionaire demands and kicked Macklemore off of his tour, Lefty, the Groupon heiress turned flavorless country-folk-pop singer, was the easiest snark-target in the music world.
