The Paranoyds: “Hotel Celebrity”

By: Jack Anderson

“In these uncertain times…” we’ve all experienced our a fair share of paranoia. But if there’s anyone to take a rocky situation and, well, rock with it, it’s L.A. four-piece The Paranoyds. These self-admitted garage punks and horror connoisseurs released their debut LP Carnage Bargain last year and returned just last week with their succinct 7″, Pet Cemetery.

Where the EP’s title track captures a gloomier shoegaze aesthetic, Pet Cemetery‘s B-Side (and corresponding music video) “Hotel Celebrity” has just enough riot grrrl ferocity and upbeat energy to get you through hump day and beyond!

Swimming With Bears: “Patient Disguise”

If you stop to think about it, there are really only two typical climate observations from astute Austinites. 1: It’s too hot and the sun is literally cooking us alive. 2: It’s too cold and the sun needs to come back ASAP. Yeah, we’re a special kind of simple southerners in our own way. But […]

Cloud Companion: “Who Took The Night Away”

Ever get stuck in between states of sleep? Ya know, that Inception-type trip where R.E.M. feels more like reality than when you actually rise? If so…far out, man. Us too. If not, we’ve got just the thing to try and replicate it: Cloud Companion. Now, the term “collective” gets thrown around a little too often […]

SKLOSS: “The Pattern Speaks”

A lot of self-proclaimed go-getters take full responsibility for their actions and efficacy. The motivation and blueprints to make changes in their lives is always at hand. For others though? They’ve got no opposition to looking up at the sky, acknowledging that the universe’s inner workings are beyond control, and just hoping for help from […]

Rojenka: “Dang Girlfriend”

We end up saying this pretty much every pass around the sun, but it ends up proving true every time: 2024’s been a big year for Austin music. Lots of project premieres and lots of studio recordings debuting on streaming. And that includes acts that have only popped up in the past couple months. A […]

Warm Sound: “Moons”

Whether you’re an amateur astronomer, unapologetic astrologer, wannabe werewolf, or just love gazing at that big airborne pizza pie every once in a while, pretty much everyone can agree that there’s a certain magic to witnessing a full moon. And depending on how tethered you feel to Earth’s nightlight, as it cycles through phases, you […]

Collin Mullins: “Sunny Side”

Everyone’s capable of “seeing the light”, whether it’s through newfound sobriety, bringing up the “bright side” post-crucifixion, or just waking up a little earlier in your daily routine. But of course, the lead up to those optimistic rays can take some serious time. Take for instance Collin Mullins and his inspiring personal journey. A staple […]

Days of Summer: “Need to Escape”

We’re just two weeks away from Thanksgiving and wouldn’t you know it, it’s finally starting to feel like Fall down here. You’d be hard pressed to find a Texan who doesn’t appreciate the drop in temps, but then again, the spirit of summertime is simply a year-round celebration for some folks. Folks like Austin’s Angela […]
