Last time we checked in with New Jersey act Whiner, we were stunned by the almost uncategorizable indie rock of their single, “Dog.” They’ve continued their brand of shimmery, shoegaze-tinged sound with a new single, “Sleeping Pills.” Full of whining (pun intended) walls of guitar sound, reverb-soaked everything, and a surprisingly passionate vocal take, we think “Sleeping Pills” will make it onto your next playlist. Check it out below – you can find their entire catalog (including “Sleeping Pills”) on Spotify. Whiner · Sleeping Pills

New Jersey act Whiner caught our ears with the shimmery, almost-uncategorizable indie rock of “Dog.” Is it pop? Is it experimental? Yeah, it’s a little bit of everything (there’s even a hint of shoegazy 90s flavor) and it really works for this particular quintet. Fun fact: you might recognize singer Cameron J. Castan from his stint in previous buffaBLOG mainstays Slowshine. About “Dog,” Whiner says: “Dog is about that nostalgic melancholy feeling when you smell a certain kind of perfume or find a box of old Polaroid photos in your room when cleaning. Your heart aches for that moment.” This one is truly soaking in sincere, heart-on-your-sleeve sentiment with an amazing instrumental behind it. Check it out below – it’s also on Spotify. Whiner · Dog
