vote7.0 Bands: DUIR Duration: 00:46:31 Available from: 06/26/2026 Label: AOP Records Streaming not yet available. In that niche at the crossroads between leaden folk and atmospheric black metal, nestle Duir, a quintet from Verona who releases their second long-distance work, “Catarsi”, for AOP Records.The signing with the German label seems particularly appropriate to us, because, for shadowy sounds, woodland atmospheres and history that becomes existential torment, the basin in which the Venetians fish is the same as bands like Groza, Ellende, with something from Saor and Skyforger to enrich the blackest substratum; all groups with which ours have shared a…

After breaking through with the steamy ‘Worst Behaviour’ and its Kehlani remix, the 26-year-old made her mark with last year’s lust-filled breakout EP ‘With All Due Respect’. If that project was the “Side A” on which desire always won, then follow-up ‘And All Pride Aside’ is the “Side B” where the east Londoner reflects on that desire and confronts heartbreak, regret and grief with the same candour she once reserved for lust. Kwn knows how to squeeze swagger out of her melodies,…
You're probably sick of hearing about New York's indie sleaze revival. Spearheaded by The Dare, Fcukers and a generation of post-pandemic partygoers, it's been hailed as the sweaty solution for those desperate for some good old-fashioned noughties hedonism. Though parts of Chanpan's colourful, playful alt-pop slots into that lineage, this trio of NYC insiders downplay that exaggerated image. “As someone who likes to party, it's not really that great out here,” explains vocalist Grace Dumdaw. “It doesn't feel as genuine as the New York of before… things are not accessible to everyone,” they continue. “There's a door guy watching what…
