Indie Rock
Guitars snap with a dry and wiry bite.
Great Mountain Fire turn Late Lights into the kind of track.
The Crookes land “Afterglow” like a fresh-cut single.
Morning Parade hit the sweet spot with "Headlights": bright and taut.
Contrast makes it feel essential right now.
Guitars arrive crisp and wiry, then the synths blink.
California Wives make “Purple” feel immediate: glossy and cool.
WALK THE MOON turns “Tightrope” into the kind of song.
Buzzing distortion, crisp drums, and a vocal.
Guitars flicker at the edges and the vocal sits high and smooth.
The vocal sits right on top, giving the track a clean rush.
My favorite Indie Rock songs from the past year.
Paid-only
Glassier synths skim over a springy beat.
The song fits a late-afternoon drive, windows down, sunglasses.
Lucia’s All Eyes on You sounds like the kind of track.
