Excited to share that it's Catching Up Week on Treble! We periodically do "albums you/we missed" lists, but every day this week, we're posting 2-3 reviews of records we missed from earlier this year. They're good enough for a deeper dive, so that's what we're doing!

Album of the Week: Wednesday are at peak confidence and command of their songwriting on 'Bleeds' www.treblezine.com/w...

"There’s this sense that, I think, basically everybody has that we’ve lost something by gaining everything, and that we need to limit ourselves in some way." Read our interview with Agriculture on their new album, hope, and the "quiet violence" of music consumption www.treblezine.com/a...

The Internet Archive is one of the last non-shitty places on the internet, and I wrote about one of its best if undersung features: The live music archive With six favorites included

Took forever but I'm finally back to doing some autobiographical record inventory Everything in today's post was purchased in Iceland! Including a Björk record autobiographical-order.beehiiv.com/p/fontaines-...

Yee haw! 🤠

I live there technically but G. But I chose it for the other corner

ICYMI: Our Album of the Week is Wednesday's 'Bleeds' www.treblezine.com/wednesday-bl...

Wednesday is as good as indie rock gets in the year 2025, which is to say, really freakin good Their new album features some of their best songs to date, and an unusually high body count. But then again, it is called 'Bleeds'

Hear the darkly grooving new track from Memphis post-punk trio Optic Sink, "Don't Look Down" www.treblezine.com/hear-the-dar...

I'm old and come from an age before algorithmic recommendations, but in the opinion of this ancient relic, music discovery was more fun when you had to put more effort into it. And in turn, few things make me happier than sharing new (or new-to-them anyway) music with someone for the first time

The 20 Most Anticipated Albums of Fall 2025 Unexpected collaborations! Long-awaited returns! Extended hot streaks! www.treblezine.com/the-20-most-...

Album of the Week: Lucrecia Dalt underscores romance with a streak of menace on 'A Danger to Ourselves' https://www.treblezine.com/lucrecia-dalt-a-danger-to-ourselves-review/

Wrote about the new Titanic record for @treblezine.bsky.social - it's fantastic

ICYMI: Our Album of the Week is Lucrecia Dalt's 'A Danger to Ourselves' https://www.treblezine.com/lucrecia-dalt-a-danger-to-ourselves-review/

Wrote about the new Lucrecia Dalt album, easily one of my favorites of 2025

Keith Hudson pulls the branches back just far enough to let us peer into the unknown www.treblezine.com/k...

We spoke to Lucrecia Dalt about new album 'A Danger to Ourselves,' the influence of film, and channeling a "raw sincerity" www.treblezine.com/l...

Thrilled to share some of my conversation with Lucrecia Dalt, whose new album juxtaposes reflections on a new relationship with Oppenheimer and episode 8 of 'Twin Peaks: The Return'

A guide to the complete albums of Deftones www.treblezine.com/deftones-alb...

Wrote about the debut album by The New Eves, which is fun, weird, a little abrasive, thought provoking, but with a good sense of humor and more than a little tension Good stuff!

Album of the Week: Deftones' 'private music' emits a sense of captivating brightness @pyramidmaster.bsky.social reviews www.treblezine.com/d...

We've launched a new folk column! See the picks from our first installment, including ambient acoustics, psychedelic rituals, stark dirges of doom and more www.treblezine.com/8...

listening to BLOWOUT COMB this morning. a straight up masterpiece, imo youtu.be/HTm5zue_h94?...

It's a little strange that the narrative surrounding the new Deftones album is that Tik Tok made them famous, since they were already very popular. It's not quite like Duster, who was basically an unknown band for decades and ended up with millions of streams

“I want to be able to live in a lot of different moods” Read our interview with @ganserband.bsky.social www.treblezine.com/g...

There's been an on-and-off conversation in recent years over the value of negative reviews, why you don't see as many of them anymore, etc. And I'm sure there's a lot of reasons for why that is. We still publish negative-ish reviews at Treble, but less than we used to, for a variety of reasons.

Treble has a new folk column! And the first installment shows just how diverse folk really is: Steve Gunn, Derya Yildirim and Grup Simsek, Annahstasia and more

The new triple(!) album by Shrapknel is just crazy good, pairing their labyrinthine lyricism with three distinct but complementary producers Wrote a few words about all three records

Our picks for the best cassette players to buy right now www.treblezine.com/t...

Honestly this is an excuse. I know plenty of people who are not “naturally gifted” who do art. It requires effort to learn. I feel you did not approach it correctly or think things happen over night. Also hard work and skill is not “naturally gifted” as that undermines their efforts to draw. 1/2

Finally got a new Autobiographical Order up! Sheesh, busy coupla weeks This one's on Olivia Tremor Control and BRMC and being a weird teenager Plus exotica, hardcore, shoegaze records and such autobiographical-order.beehiiv.com/p/olivia-tre...

Kudos to The Armed for including a "hidden" track on the vinyl version of their new album I appreciate the effort they put into letting their listeners find cool shit. (Or not find it, since I didn't realize there was a code to download more songs on their last album)
