A new batch of Engineer Records releases arrived at our headquarters today.

Break To Broken nurture such a specific sound that resembles…

The Men – New York City LP (Fuzz Club Records)
Another excellent record arrived at our headquarters this week. I can’t believe The Men released their ninth full album.

Scarabeusdream – Crescendo LP (Noise Appeal Records)
I am not sure how I missed this release when it came out, considering I already wrote a dozen reviews about Noise Appeal releases at that point. It’s strange how some excellent recordings sneak under the radar while others pop up almost twice a day on social media and streaming platforms. Noise Appeal are known…

Tunic Released Video For “Whispering”
A 2021 review from Decibel Magazine described Tunic’s sophomore effort, Quitter, as “hurtling forward, AmRep style.” Of that same album, Invisible Oranges stated, “everything sounds like it’s teetering on the edge of collapse.” Indeed, Quitter was a herky-jerky assault of pummeling drums, distorted bass, discordant guitar, and wild-eyed vocals that put the Winnipeg band on…

LUGOSi – Inconsolable LP
It’s time for some loud, aggressive, and uncompromising music. I admit it has been a while since we had a band like this on our pages. Sure, we had many hardcore bands covered in the past through news, reviews, and other features, but LUGOSi stands out from the crowd. Somehow, these guys do things differently…
