Today’s Pressing Concerns looks at a new album from The Rosie Varela Project, a new EP from Personal Space, a re-released album from TJ Douglas, and an album from Teenage Tom Petties that’s actually shorter than the Personal Space EP.

New Playlist: May 2022
Another monthly playlist is here! It’s a weird one! A lot of stuff from this year, of course, a few selections from 1980 (the year I’m currently digging into), and a good deal of miscellaneous songs! But they’re all good! The only band with multiple songs on the playlist this time around is this up-and-comingContinue reading “New Playlist: May 2022”

Pressing Concerns is back, and a day earlier than usual! It’s kind of an odds-and-ends week, as I look at some albums from the past month or so that I either missed initially or didn’t have time to get to earlier–specifically, new records from SAVAK, Gorgeous Bully, Elephant Gym, and Mace. If you’re looking forContinue reading “Pressing Concerns: SAVAK, Gorgeous Bully, Elephant Gym, Mace.”
Pressing Concerns: Devil Town Tapes, Flight Mode, Spread Joy, Turbo World
This week’s Pressing Concerns looks at new records from Flight Mode, Spread Joy, and Turbo World, as well as a new compilation from Devil Town Tapes. Somewhat shorter this week, as I’ve had less time to work on Rosy Overdrive of late.
