'Heart Has To Work So Hard' by Blondshell

 

A single released on 18 May, 2026. 

Blondshell (real name Sabrina Teitelbaum) is originally from New York, USA, and is now based in Los Angeles, California, with music composed and written by herself.

Such a great Indie Rock song.

Really like the driving beat, and the guitar backing and breakout is very cool.

'A.D.' by 32 tens

 

 

 A single released on 15 May 2026.

Been a while since I featured some bad arse rock music.

Great indie rock song from this British group from the Northwestern UK town of Warrington.

Get rockin', as they used to say.

"Mamma Don't Cry" by Joan & the Giants

 

 

Missed this one back two weeks ago at the end of April.

I have listened to new releases before from this Melbourne based alt pop-rock band (whatever that means) only have never featured any of them.

Don't be fooled by the long intro that sounds sort folksy as it is really not what the song is about. 

It takes nearly a minute (around 0.52) to hit it's stride and become a really great rock song.

 

'Is This Real' by overpass

 

From the EP of the same name released on 29 April, 2026.

First came across this Birmingham band back in 2021 with the release of 'Otherside of Midnight' in February that year, one of my favourite songs from that time.

There have been been many more, with that clean, guitar Indie sound.

This is one of those.
