Taking Meds

This week's playlist includes new music by Moor Mother, Snail Mail, The War On Drugs, Adia Victoria, Pa Salieu, Marissa Nadler, Every Time I Die, and more

The NYC punk band's upcoming album was produced with Converge's Kurt Ballou.

The comp also features Fugazi covers by Failure, Shai Hulud, Teenage Halloween, Chamberlain, Viva Belgrado, Couch Slut, Into It. Over It., Jonah Matranga, Snapped Ankles, and more...

Microwave's 2020 tour was cut short because of COVID, and they'll head out on a new round of East Coast dates this fall.

PEARS, The Casket Lottery, Direct Hit, Ratboys, Be Well, Brendan Kelly, Militarie Gun, NØ MAN, Camp Trash, Joystick and more join the already-stacked lineup...

The D-beating political hardcore trio debuted last year with the 'Greatest Hits' EP, and now they're set to release its sequel this month.

Last year, Growing Stone -- the indie-folk solo project of Taking Meds' Skylar Sarkis -- has a new video for ”Rushing For Fear of Intruder” off last year's I Had Everybody Snowed.

The new song is a lovely dose of indie/chamber pop - a far cry from Skylar's punk band Taking Meds.

The NYC local regulars will drop their next EP on the Smartpunk label this June.
