Welcome Ghouls, Demons, and Fellow Wyrd Ones!!! Princess Goes (featuring Michael C. Hall, Matt Katz-Bohen and Peter Yanowitz) released their Third Single “French Kiss” to tease their next album “3!” The album graces the public on October 30th, 2026! French Kiss is described as a “sprawling, six-and-a-half-minute electro-pop-disco-rock slow-burn.” The band notes inspirations from Daft Punk, Justice, Giorgio Moroder, and Isabelle Adjani. I was fucking electrified from the first listen. I cannot wait to witness the entire masterpiece that will be this album. These teasers have been the most exhilarating edgings of my melodic life. And their alignments with my spiritual reckonings, blessings and cognizance of wisdom has been brilliantly timed in mythological fashion. I couldn’t be more in love with how my story has played out, and where my story will continue to weave. That is equally manifested and expressed through my LOVE for Princess Goes, and this monumental album to come. Peter Yanowitz has expressed how these songs, and this album, have granted them an understanding of themselves, their sound, and who they want to be as the Universe has seemingly planted everything perfectly before them, and before us all!

Let’s Get Weird One More Time!

The complexity of the music paints abstract grooves and scratches scores of stories we have all wanted to behold. Their voices add to the fray and slap on yet another layer of gorgeous convolution. Izaac has a raspy, robotic element piped into his microphone that heightens this mystical adventure. His words seem to bounce around the room and crash through any physical barriers. Gabrielle is not to be missed on the other side of this team. She brings forth an element of soul, hitting high angelic notes and phenomenally constructed primal screams. She dances graciously between notes and vocals. She is in the moment. We are all in the moment.

Meghan Pulles: New Single and New Record

I can honestly say that Pulles has left everything on the table and has come at us with a record from a deeply emotional place and ‘The Midhaven’ is just a sample of her putting her vulnerability on display so that the world may not only empathize together but also begin to heal through human connection. When the single drops,there will also be a gorgeously shot, black and white video, to accompany it. This is the first time that Pulles has released a video and a single on the same day. Meghan’s voice floats in the atmosphere and invites you to take part in the feast of her magical lyrics. Her words are a sonnet filled with staggering imagery that invokes heartfelt sentiment.

Artist Review | Kingfishr

If you’ve learned anything from my handful of articles, it’s probably this: my feet may be planted firmly on American soil, but my heart has always belonged to Ireland. There’s something about the people, the stories, and the music that keeps calling me back. Supporting the fiercely talented, resilient, and endlessly authentic artists coming out of Ireland isn’t just something I enjoy, it’s something I’m genuinely passionate about. Thankfully, bands like Kingfishr make that passion ridiculously easy.

Album Review | Death Cab for Cutie | I Built You A Tower

Their mixes ranged from simple and methodical to complex and inspired, and the lyrics … well … Death Cab for Cutie has been one of my favorites for so long specifically because of their lyrics. (Ben Gibbard is a lyrical genius, and I don’t care who might try to say otherwise LOL) Their writing style has always struck a chord with me. I’ve always especially admired and connected with their use of metaphors, which only helps to create stronger visuals of their stories, and this album is no different. I Built You A Tower is a beautiful blend of complex emotions (deeply felt nostalgia). I don’t know how they always do it, but they do – and it’s magic!

The Nordic Experimental Folk Experience

I can’t recall what song played first – or which one I trulyheard first – but I do remember when Straylight Run’s song, Existentialism on Prom Night, came on … This immense feeling of understanding and presence washed over me. Every single note, every vibration streaming through the air … it was as if I could feel the molecules shifting around me – the air around me changing as each note rang out from the speakers. I’d even go so far to say I envisioned the music in my mind’s eye, each note producing a different color, image, shape, etc. Again, only sharing my own experience here and would never aim to talk someone into doing it, but I will say – the whole experience was magical, to say the least. In the end, I felt opened up to music even more than before – more than I could have ever imagined was possible, really. My psyche changed for the better that day.
