Substrate Radio Freeform Radio From Alabama
And it's REAL fuckin' good. (As in, I've been playing it on repeat all morning.) "Flawed," the track in question, was recorded as a demo over 35 years ago when Swervedriver was in the process of making their debut album "Raise." And while an alternate version of the song was released on their Sandblasted EP in 1991, this particular demo version wasn't actually released until literally today. And one thing […]
By: Jackie Lo When I think of Jason Molina, I think about the early days of Bottletree, where he played a month after they opened their doors, again the following year, and then, thankfully, We Have Signal documented Magnolia Electric Co.'s final 2008 Bottletree performance (video below). I remember the first year Substrate Radio launched, talking about Songs: Ohia with Dan from Seasick before Seasick Records opened its doors, too. […]
And yes, I'm talking about Teenage Fanclub! The legendary five-piece band graced Instagram with their new song, "Day In The Sun," earlier today (July 23). And, in true Teenage Fanclub fashion, it's catchier than all-get-out. They also announced that their upcoming album, Do Not Dare To Dream, will be released on Oct. 9 on Merge Records. It'll be their first studio album since 2023's Nothing Lasts Forever, so consider our calendars […]
That's right: All three of these fantastic Midwestern bands/musicians (and Substrate darlings) have released brand new singles on the exact same day! And obviously, they all absolutely slay. Check out the videos for "Riverboat Blues" by Graham Hunt, "Not For Nothing" by Slow Pulp and "All The Rage" by Wishy below. And slash or, listen to them on Bandcamp here, here and here! Also, stay tuned for upcoming albums from […]
By: Jackie Lo It’s been a while since a song stopped me in my tracks, and “I Want You” by Beck Zegans did just that. I stopped scrolling through songs immediately and thought: I need to know who Beck Zegans is. I need to know what the rest of this album sounds like. Engraving of Armor released Friday on Exploding in Sound Records, and I’ve been loving this nine-song album, […]
Happy birthday to the shoegaze legend himself! And sorry for the dead air. :^( (And "fuck you" to the universe for preventing me from broadcasting my all-shoegaze playlist that I made for my Barfing Up Lungs show tonight in celebration.) Here's my favorite MBV song in the meantime: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_pQGxIMcgA&list=RDO_pQGxIMcgA&start_radio=1 (Reported by Kayleigh Drake)
In an Instagram post captioned "Happy May Day," the band confirmed the release of their first song in nearly three decades. Technically, it was uploaded to Bandcamp in April, per guitarist/vocalist Tobin Mori in an interview with Strand Magazine. But for the first time since the band called it quits in 1999, we got a brand new original song from Korea Girl. It's called "Anthropocene." And it is beautiful. They […]
After a literally 20-year wait, we're getting a sequel to the absolutely iconic film The Devil Wears Prada, featuring the legendary Meryl Streep, Stanley Tucci, Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt reprising their roles from the original. (But presumably with even more fabulous shenanigans.) You can catch it at theaters across Birmingham, including the Premiere theaters on Lakeshore and in Bessemer, Regal in Trussville (yes, the vibey 80s-inspired one), and all three […]
It's a mid-aughts indie kid's dream come true! Members of these two iconic bands recently came together and formed a brand new band, The Creem. (Not to be confused with Cream the Eric Clapton band. Or Creem the rock and roll magazine.) They released their first single, "Taste Of Cherry," just a few weeks ago on April 7, and today they released a brand new one called "Goodbye." And if […]
