London based RAINSONG brings us their latest with “Coma Baby.” Chock full of effects for that reliable shoegaze tone, RAINSONG plays around with faraway/breathless sounding lyrics with a touch of the melancholia. This honestly sounds how I think a new Goo...

Philly based Makeout City brings us their latest single, “Everytime,” and it’s a poppy shoegazy banger. The band refers to themselves as “Mid-Atlantic Dreamgaze” – upbeat guitars and tight drums drive the song forward, while some...

When one of the notes I received with this track was that one of the similar artists was one of my personal favorites (The Strokes) I was pretty floored, yet hesitant. A Strokes clone? C’mon, what is this, 2005? Well, The Coordinators are certainly not a Strokes...
