We’re still only a week out from the music world-shattering publication of Rosy Overdrive’s Top 100 Albums of 2023, but now it is time to take a look at a shorter but still very substantial list/release format. 2023 was another great year for EPs, and I’ve done my hardest to narrow my favorites down toContinue reading “Rosy Overdrive’s Top 25 EPs of 2023”

New Playlist: October 2023

Happy Halloween to all you ghouls, zombies, ghosts and whatnot. I’d say that this is a “spooky” edition of the monthly round-up or something, but really, this is just a normal one. It’s only scary if you’re afraid of good music. Or sentient mouths (we’ll get to that in a minute). Oh, and there isContinue reading “New Playlist: October 2023”

New Playlist: June 2023

Welcome to a weird sort-of holiday weekend–tomorrow’s the fourth of July, and I’m pleased to present Rosy Overdrive’s June 2023 playlist for you to throw on while you grill your various foods (for the Americans among us, at least). A lot of great brand new selections on this one! Jason Isbell and the 400 UnitContinue reading “New Playlist: June 2023”

Well: the year is nearly halfway over, so I shall now commemorate it by sharing my forty favorite records from it thus far with you, the Rosy Overdrive reader.

New Playlist: March 2021

We’re back with two hours of nonstop hit singles that I enjoyed listening to over the last month. Most of these songs were either originally released or reissued this year, but there’s a bit of older music hidden down in there as well. For songs pulled from albums I’ve already written about, I’ve linked thoseContinue reading “New Playlist: March 2021”

New Pressing Concerns, just in time for Bandcamp Friday! Today I talk about new albums from Stoner Control, 7-11 Jesus, and Herzog, as well as a reissue of Snowhore’s debut EP. It’s a smaller edition this time around, but I wanted to spotlight these four under-the-radar releases for the big Bandcamp holiday rather than holdingContinue reading “Pressing Concerns: Stoner Control, 7-11 Jesus, Herzog, Snowhore”
