Daymares – Cant Get Us All — Self Made God, 2007

Daymares hail from Poland. Yes, that Poland. Prior to this release, the band had nothing more than a roughly mixed demo, which mixed 90's metallic hardcore with brooding metal. And here's why you should take notice

Can't Get Us All is the band's debut full-length. Comprised of eleven songs, three of which are re-recorded from their demo, Can't Get Us All is an excellent mix of the intensity of Integrity and Damnation A.D., the grittiness of Tragedy, and the thundering metal of Neurosis and High on Fire. Some of the songs delve more into hardcore - "Suicide Watch" and "Key Witness" - while others definitely have a more metal flair - "Falling Down" and "I Shit You Not." The album concludes with "iContact," an eight-minute epic metal venture that'll have you banging your head for every minute.

Daymares is a fairly young band, and even though they call Poland home and may never actually touch American soil, they are a band deserving of recognition. Can't Get Us All is an album for anyone sick of spinning the same records over and over and looking for something new.

Hi Again
Pinata Records (2025)

Lutheran Heat have one of my favorite band names, a distinctly Minnesota tongue-in-cheek nod to local culture and mannerisms. But while I dig the band name, that's not really relevant to the rest of this review. Hi Again is their first record in 9 years, but it continues their garagey indie-punk tones. Expect garage rock guitar tones, slacker indie rock … Read more

Huma Utku is an explorer. From her early days under the R.A.N (Roads at Night) moniker, she displayed a deep appreciation for experimental electronic music. From the outset, Utku wove together dark ambient motifs, industrial themes, and post-club abstraction into a minimalist yet holistic vision. Since adopting her own name, that same sonic excavation has continued, with a sharpened focus … Read more
