Magnolia — Meadowglade (Single)
The lyrics are exactly what they should be. This song is incredibly picturesque, almost as if you can see yourself looking out the window onto a snowy landscape. Magnolia can cause immense feelings of sadness and yearning.
Meadowglade is an indie rock band based in Nashville, Tennessee making music out of their dorm rooms, featuring Luke Cooper, Owen Keim, Justin Nasfell, and Aidan Spiva. Their debut 2026 single, “Magnolia,” introduces a sound that feels thoughtful and emotional, with a style that loosely echoes bands like Pinegrove.

Mock - Rehash (Album)
This album was playing while we did our first ever record search in a local record store called Jake’s Records in Delray Beach, FL. Each song created a completely different atmosphere in the store and in our own experiences while shopping, and this was something that was deeply appreciated, as well as dynamic and exciting. We have decided that this entire album is full of heavy hitters, and rather than just a song, we recommend the whole thing.
Rehash is a rock band from South Florida made up of vocalist and rhythm guitarist Renzo Valdez, lead guitarist Sebastian Gamez, drummer Ethan Lopez, and bassist Daseth Lopez.

all over you — live
The song carries this toxic relationship kind of energy, full of tension and back and forth, pulling away and pushing back in. There is something about it that feels only a notch away from a gospel chant, like it is reaching for something spiritual while still staying rooted in messier human emotion. It almost feels like something you would hear playing on a Touchtunes jukebox somewhere in Michigan, familiar, dramatic, and strangely sacred all at once.
Live is a rock band out of York, Pennsylvania that formed in 1984. Made up originally of Ed Kowalczyk, Patrick Dahlheimer, Chad Gracey, and Chad Taylor, the band first gained wider attention with “Operation Spirit,” a song that helped introduce them to a larger audience through MTV.

our work of art — Just Surrender
There is something about the melody that stays with you. It has been stuck in Nathan’s head in that very specific, almost relentless way certain songs can be. It feels a little like waking up and having to sit with everything that happened the day before, when the emotional weight of it all starts to settle in.
Just Surrender is a rock band from Dover Plains, New York, originally formed by high school friends Jason Maffucci, Andy Meunier, and Steve Miller. Originally known as A Second Chance, the group later became a four piece with the addition of vocalist and guitarist Dan Simons. The band has been active since 2003.

10,000 Horses — candlebox
This feels like one of those songs you somehow already knew before you even realized you knew it. The kind you hear as a kid, forget about for years, and then stumble back into later only to realize it has been sitting somewhere in you the whole time. And somehow, here we are again.
Candlebox is a rock band from Seattle, Washington that formed in 1990. Since then, the band has released eight studio albums, along with several charting singles, a compilation, and a CD and DVD release. They first found major success with their self titled debut album, which came out in July 1993.

Alive — Scarlet House
Scarlet House makes the kind of music that feels made for night drives. Dark, atmospheric, and shoegazy, the sound is immersive without losing its edge. There is something chaotic in it, but it still feels disciplined, like everything is slightly unraveling while somehow staying intact. It lands somewhere in the world of alternative indie rock, with a mood that feels a little like The Neighbourhood’s darker, edgier brother.
Scarlet House is the musical project of Kameron Odums, a 25 year old alternative and shoegaze artist from Charlotte, North Carolina. Working as a one man band, he creates a sound that pulls from grunge, shoegaze, and modern R&B, something that feels dark, dreamy, and deeply personal all at once. With songs like “Slowing Down” and “Over,” he has started carving out a space of his own, made even more powerful by the openness with which he has shared his journey through surviving cancer.
