It’s safe to say that everyone’s already getting a head start on choosing the song that will be most played this summer. Over the past few months, La+ch and Dustbuster of the band Coleman Hell have become increasingly popular on Soundcloud for their remixes of songs by artists like Katy Perry and Rihanna. But this time around, the duo has made their mark with over 55,000 plays (and counting) in just a few days on their new original single entitled "Hunter."

Not only is this a song that is likely to end up at the club you’re dancing in, but it’s one of those songs that seem like they're meant to mark the iconic moments in life just like in the movies. Whether it's a late night drive blasting music in your car with the windows down, hearing it in the background during a game of beer pong at the cottage, or maybe just using it as an excuse to have a dance party in your apartment while you’re making waffles for breakfast. 

The simplicity of this song is what makes it such a catch...and catchy tune. In fact, it’s the only thing I’ve been singing from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to sleep. Every inch of this track is sticky and it’s sticky in a good way. 

With the plays on Soundcloud still escalating by the minute, it looks like the internet has spoken. I can't wait to see what else these guys have in store for us.

Went Silent

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

After The Storm EP
Slovenly (2025)

Hailing and wailing from Soweto, South Africa, rising from the ashes After The Storm comes pounding like a fierce berg wind. Don’t let this trigger your ancraophobia; they are only here (hear) to rip your sagging, middle-aged flesh from your living corpsicle sonically. Ah, Daddy—yes, Son—tell us about a time when punk was raw, dangerous, and would generally stomp your … Read more

Awful Din

Anti Body
We’re Trying Records (2026)

There’s a certain honesty that only comes from bands who’ve spent years playing to half-filled rooms, basements with bad wiring, and bars where the PA is optional. ANTI BODY, the new LP from Brooklyn emo punks Awful Din, sounds like it was built in those spaces. Not as a gimmick, but as lived experience. This is a record that feels … Read more
