It’s safe to say that everyone’s already getting a head start on choosing the song that will be most played this summer. Over the past few months, La+ch and Dustbuster of the band Coleman Hell have become increasingly popular on Soundcloud for their remixes of songs by artists like Katy Perry and Rihanna. But this time around, the duo has made their mark with over 55,000 plays (and counting) in just a few days on their new original single entitled "Hunter."

Not only is this a song that is likely to end up at the club you’re dancing in, but it’s one of those songs that seem like they're meant to mark the iconic moments in life just like in the movies. Whether it's a late night drive blasting music in your car with the windows down, hearing it in the background during a game of beer pong at the cottage, or maybe just using it as an excuse to have a dance party in your apartment while you’re making waffles for breakfast. 

The simplicity of this song is what makes it such a catch...and catchy tune. In fact, it’s the only thing I’ve been singing from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to sleep. Every inch of this track is sticky and it’s sticky in a good way. 

With the plays on Soundcloud still escalating by the minute, it looks like the internet has spoken. I can't wait to see what else these guys have in store for us.

Fangus

Emerald Dream
From The Urn Records (2026)

The needle drops, and there’s no introductory sweaty handshake. Fangus doesn’t care for niceties; they’re ready to get down to brass-knuckle business. With their debut full-length, Emerald Dream, the Montreal quintet has exhumed a sound that feels less like a tribute to the early '70s and more like a master tape found rotting in a damp basement behind a stack … Read more

Drakulas

Midnight City
Dirtnap, Wild Honey Records (2026)

I’m assuming Midnight City is the “fictionalized New York-esque metropolis” where the band/gang members of Drakulas survive(d in the mid to late 70's;). It’s also the third album by this Austin TX based, concept driven supergroup. Not really sure if I’m supposed to out these dudes but their secret identities include members of Riberboat Gamblers, Rise Against, High Tension Wires … Read more

Elevate EP
GhettoBlaster Productions (2025)

As far as I can gather Jeff Corso has been playing in bands in the Bay Area for the past 20 years but seems like exclusively hardcore until now. Full disclosure: I’m only reviewing this because Aesop from Hickey plays drums. That said, I generally only review stuff I like, so go figure. This doesn’t sound like Hickey but since … Read more
