Rat Boy channel frustration into a blast of punk energy on their latest single, ‘Sick Of It’, the newest preview of their forthcoming album “CRASH!”, due out on June 26 via Hellcat Records. Accompanied by visuals that see the band tearing through the streets of London and skating in front […]
The Smashing Pumpkins are set to return to North American stages this fall with The Rats In A Cage Tour, a large-scale live production built around the 30th anniversary of their landmark 1995 double album “Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness.” Launching on September 30 in Columbus, Ohio, and continuing […]
Geological Abstractionism begins where image-making dissolves into process: in a field where time, gravity, and matter take precedence over composition and immediate visual impact. Wallace Woo, a Paris-based contemporary artist and the founder of Stalactite Aesthetics, approaches painting as a form of sedimentation, a slow accumulation of material and meaning […]
Some bands evolve. Others dissolve and rebuild themselves entirely. Corlyx feels like the latter, a project shaped as much by movement as by sound, drifting between Los Angeles, the UK, Italy, and beyond, absorbing fragments of each place along the way.

The Essex troublemakers Rat Boy just dropped ‘Broken’, a loud, jagged new track that kicks like a boot to the ribs and doesn’t bother apologising after.

Ekaterina Iakiamseva moves through photography with the instinct of someone who distrusts surfaces. The image, for her, is never a simple record, never an obedient witness.

Tramhaus are Rotterdam’s live-wire post-punk revelation, a band celebrated for explosive shows and songs that hit like a spark to dry air. With a sound that effortlessly stretches from shoegaze textures to raw punk-rock urgency, the five-piece blend their diverse musical backgrounds into something both unpredictable and fiercely cohesive. On […]
Vilnius-based experimental metal band Erdve have released ‘Ydos,’ the second single taken from their upcoming album “Epigrama,” out May 29th, 2026 through Season of Mist. ‘Ydos’ follows the band’s first single ‘Nyra’ and continues the thematic arc of “Epigrama,” a record built around entropy, psychological erosion and the cumulative weight of unresolved regret. Where […]
