Dave Hause

Philadelphia-bred punk lifer Dave Hause has been writing brutally honest, emotionally heavyweight songs since his 2011 debut. After a stretch of Americana-tinged solo records, he's back where he belongs — plugged in, turned up, and backed by a full band. …And The Mermaid (2025) is the rock and roll record he always wanted to make: sharp, surging, and loaded with the kind of melodies that stick to your ribs.

Sincere Engineer

Chicago punk outfit Sincere Engineer returns with Probable Claws, their fourth full-length — recorded at the legendary Electrical Audio, Steve Albini's studio. Frontwoman Deanna Belos delivers her sharpest writing yet: 11 tracks of cathartic, blue-collar pop-punk wrestling with time, nostalgia, and the uncomfortable pace of life. No filler, no skip button needed.
