Valiancy’s Newest Track, “Voices,” Is the Purest Art You’ll Ever Hear

International, New Music, Track Review

In the ever-evolving landscape of lyricism and storytelling, I firmly believe that the best stories are written and performed in immense suffering. Valiancy’s newest track, ‘Voices,’ is a clear contender for that. Voices starts with this atmospheric but uneasy synth line that perfectly sets up the whole track. That bassy synth in the beginning goes […]

Energy Whores Deliver Something Sharper, Louder, Smarter, and Crucially, Fun on Arsenal of Democracy

Album Review, International, New Music

Let’s be extremely clear from the start: Arsenal of Democracy by Energy Whores is not here to be your “background music while you pretend to answer emails” album. This is not productivity-core. This is “someone just kicked your cubicle wall down with a synthesizer” music. Led by Carrie Schoenfeld, alongside guitarist Attilio Valenti, Energy Whores

If You Want Something That Feels Disturbingly Close to the Truth, Welcome to the Dead Internet

Album Review, International, New Music

Listening to Dead Internet feels like falling face-first into your own phone at 3 a.m. You know, that moment where you’re doomscrolling, half dissociated, half weirdly emotional, and everything you see feels fake but also way too real? That’s this album. Cam Ezra isn’t trying to make something cozy or polite here. This is music
