Indie dispatches from the fringes: Avery Friedman issues a glistening return single ahead of her first UK/EU tour, while Ken Wohlrob's Forgotten Music conjures ambient experimentalism that feels "both familiar and alien — like an old language that is part of your DNA." Replaced By Robots deliver guitar-driven rock with new wave energy and psychedelic twists that feel "simultaneously familiar, futuristic, and slightly wrong," and Zayyan's Whimsically Frolicking turns anxiety into something worth sitting with. Padded Waltz give shame and insecurity their own narrator, while The Lazy I close out with haunting alt-folk performed with rare, string-laden gentleness.
