Substrate Radio Freeform Radio From Alabama
By: Kayleigh Drake I first heard of TV Star a couple years ago through what is probably my favorite compilation of all time: From Far It All Seems Small: A Compilation From Seattle’s Underground. It was released on KR Records, which is the label that Mark Palm from Supercrush owns and operates, and it consists of 14 songs from bands I was largely unfamiliar with prior to listening. Since Seattle […]
Well, technically "late summer/early fall." But either way, both Liz and S-K confirmed the news today on Instagram. They're calling it "The Flannel and the Fury Tour," which Liz says "is a nod to 1990’s alt-rock culture and the female-fronted bands who staked their claim to center stage in a male-dominated music industry." Honestly, slay. These iconic, legendary musicians will be starting things out in California and moving throughout the […]
After breadcrumbing us with cryptic teasers and posts for the past month, Scottish electronic duo Boards Of Canada have OFFICIALLY confirmed what many of us were thinking (and hoping): They're releasing a new full-length album! The news came yesterday, April 22, in an Instagram post that made everyone's Earth Day a little sweeter. "INFERNO. 29 MAY 2026." That's all the info that was given at first. But they soon followed […]
By: Kayleigh Drake At this point, it should be absolutely no secret that I’m a shoegaze fan. (Please see exhibits A, B, C and D.) So, when I hear about a brand-new shoegaze album being released, I’m drawn to it like a moth to a flame. Enter Glidewinder, the second full-length album from San Diego’s self-billed “truegaze” band Sparkler. It just dropped on Friday, April 10, and when I say […]
By: Kayleigh Drake Joder Juan is a band that brings back a really nice memory for me. I first heard them during one of my very first radio shifts at Substrate, back in January of 2025. I was queuing up my playlist for the evening, and in the moments before my show started, their song “Analisis del Desgaste” played in our station rotation. I had never heard of either the […]
By: Jackie Lo Being a teenage girl in the 90s, I had a handful of girl bands that I obsessed over. Hole was one of them. I was 14 when I discovered them and when Kurt Cobain died. I remember my mom taking me to the store and buying me ice cream and picking up a copy of the People magazine with his face on the front of it and […]
By: Jackie Lo I’ve long admired Kim Gordon, from her days of Sonic Youth to Free Kitten, X-Girl, Body/Head, to showing me how you can successfully have a long career of playing music in a band with your partner, to doing your own things without them after they are gone even while your heart is broken and I’ve loved watching her solo career with these last three albums. We share […]
By: Kayleigh Drake Y’all know I love to see a fellow Southern band kicking ass. And that’s one of many reasons why I’m digging the heck out of this new Cashier EP. Cashier being the four-piece band from Lafayette, Louisiana, who just released a six-songer, “The Weight,” on Julia’s War Recordings last week. (As in, the iconic Philly-based label founded by Doug Dulgarian from TAGABOW.) And it has been in […]
In an Instagram post shared by the band (in tandem with Remy Lamont, Damien Sayell and Ipecac Recordings), Welsh post-hardcore band Mclusky wrote: "Mclusky is a band with a new song and video called 'As a Dad.' Said song being from the new mini album, I Sure Am Getting Sick of This Bowling Alley, which is out on 20th March (digital) and 1st May (vinyl). The video being directed by […]
