There are few things more exhilarating than discovering a great pop album. Parlour Tricks’ debut album, Broken Hearts/Bones, pronounced “broken hearts and broken bones” and just released today, is one of the more invigorating ones we’ve heard lately. Spotify called their sound “vintage pop for the future”, an accurate description. Broken Hearts/Bones is guitar and… Read More
You may remember The Movies from when they opened for Cloud Nothings here back in February or you may remember them for the many house shows and bunker concerts they played around campus this semester. You may remember band members Will Cuneo, Nick Rehmus, and Bjorn Peterson from their radio show, “Blood and Thunder,” on which they almost… Read More
On the stormy night of Monday May 11, 2015, WRMC DJs and music lovers alike gathered at The Mill to countdown the Top 91 tracks of the past twelve months and to celebrate another successful year of programming. ‘Twas a night of highs and lows, counting from high to low. We ate fine cheese and we drank cheap beer. We danced… Read More
Jacco Gardner’s Hypnophobia is lush and intricately layered, full of strings and synths. In this highly introspective album the young Dutch artist explores the world between waking and sleeping. Hypnophobia is the fear of sleep and, having had many weird and introspective anxiety dreams myself lately, I really believe the thoughts we experience in our… Read More
Is there anything I love more than a man-boy whining about growing up over a catchy riff? Probably not! Are you graduating? Do you need a whiny boy to sing about it so you know it’s real?? Don’t Worry! I’m here with the whiniest grad day playlist ever made to serve all of your senior… Read More
Growing up, I was embarrassed to share the things I liked with my mom. She was always asking to look at my half-finished paintings or to read the little scraps of essays that I wrote for class. Every time I would protest. I’d blush and get flustered, grabbing pages from her hand, snapping the sketchbook… Read More
Hey you guys! In just three days, there is gonna be a sick concert in McCullough. As you know by now, Sepomana 2015 is going to be headlined by this hella chill dude Lunice. He’s from Montreal, makes trap and hip-hop music, and is probably best known as one half of TNGHT, along with Hudson Mohawke… Read More
In folklore, a rat king occurs when dozens of rats, squirming and wriggling around in compact, dirty places become tangled and knotted together by their tails, creating a writhing mass, even freakier than than the sum of its parts. Just as one can imagine New York City subways being a prime location for a knot… Read More
When people say about music, “it’s way better live than on record,” it’s usually in reference to electronic music, and generally a slight to the band’s albums. While the comment is true for Yonatan Gat, neither of its common implications are. Yonatan Gat is built for high-energy, improvisation-filled concert madness, and their records, like 2015’s… Read More
What’s up beasts; if you like to party, you’re in luck! There’s going to be a sick concert tomorrow in the most legendary venue on this campus: the Bunker (aka the Freeman INTERNATIONAL Center, ever heard of it???) Hopefully the lineup will unite all the bleep blood heads and indie hipsters who are perpetually warring on… Read More
Platonic_Love.mp3 After taking a nap for 3 1/2 hours I get dressed again but alter one thing. A shirt or a sweater. Or change the outfit entirely, only a handful of people saw me anyway. Plus that’s beside the point. After confirming that dinner plans have been cancelled, I walk into proctor at exactly 6:23pm…. Read More
