My favorite Indie Rock songs from the past year.
Indie Rock
The melody lands fast and the chorus is sticky.
The title feels instant, and the hook hits.
Out on a porch, in a bar booth, or blasting from a car.
The Brevet and “Algorithms” land like a fresh add with real teeth.
ROLE MODEL’s “Deeply Still In Love” lands like the rare new song.
CALIFORNIA GOLD turns All of Me into the kind of song.
Guitars flash in the corners while the mix stays clean and bright.
Michael Marcagi’s “Midwest Kid” lands like a fresh arrival.
Guitars blur with clean edge and the rhythm section keeps a tight.
The mix opens clean and then stacks grit over glow: bright guitars.
Guitars ring with a clean edge and the drums keep a tight forward push.
Guitars hit with clean edge and the drums keep a tight pulse.
The groove lands like a countdown to trouble.
The Manatees turn "Without You" into the kind of discovery.
