Earth Mother Fucker – I Fuck Therefore I Am — Antigen Records, 2019

Calling your band Earth Mother Fucker is a statement in and of itself, and having the audacity to go for such an aggressive sounding moniker should stand a project in good stead for the coming years. Should. For this wildly named band, the lights of the stage were few and far between and despite existing for just over a decade, Earth Mother Fucker never quite hit the heights of the charts and their time as a functional entity was over by 2001. The band did record some songs and this album/compilation houses pretty much all their recorded output.

Ostensibly led by Bruce MacGregor, Earth Mother Fucker play a sot of noise/garage rock that certainly sounds of its time. For the modern ear, this collection of songs is jarring, to say the least and I Fuck Therefore I Am is a heady waltz of off-kilter guitars and screeching vocals. It is surely a collection of completionist types, who would be the only people willing to engage in the one hour running time.

Dewey

Summer On A Curb
Howlin’ Banana Records (2026)

If you like your pop melodies wrapped in fuzz, your shoegaze grounded in real songwriting, and your records best experienced front-to-back on a quiet night, Dewey’s debut is absolutely worth your time. There’s something disarmingly unpretentious about Summer On A Curb. Dewey don’t arrive with a manifesto, a scene-policing attitude, or a sense of calculated cool. Instead, this Parisian quartet … Read more

Place Position

Went Silent
Blind Rage Records, Bunker Park, Poptek, Sweet Cheetah (2026)

There’s a certain kind of band that makes sense immediately once you see them live. Place Position is one of those bands. Before Went Silent ever landed on my speakers, I caught them at a show I played in Dayton, and they were the kind of band that quietly steals the night. There were no theatrics, no posturing, just total … Read more
