Feelings hit different here: Superdestroyer's NCTV Vol. 2 dives headfirst into addiction and love-hate relationships with riff-driven synth-punk energy — RIYL Anamanaguchi and Jeff Rosenstock. Start-Track's SAMPLER 2023 celebrates a great first year of the cassette label with a handpicked indie showcase from Filip and friends. The Darts go darker and more desolate on Nailguns and Daggers, the record that spawned Rage of the Beast, while their Gig 5 At Potleaf Cliff is Tolkien-tinged and genuinely great.
