Chiming guitars and restless hearts: The National Honor Society boldly reinvent themselves with swirling electro-pop anthems surging with OMD-reminiscent synths and unapologetic power chords, while Inland Years pair lo-fi indie rock, jangle pop, and folk into intimate emotional snapshots of memory, regret, and renewal. Hidden Eyes deliver jangly indie and noise-pop gems from their enigmatic duo universe, and Mythical Motors celebrates twenty pioneering years of crushed lo-fi power-pop. Zenxith delivers deeply personal, jangly lo-fi indie-pop born from tambourines, stacked guitars, and a troubled heart on his remarkable 20th album.
