There's a reason Balance and Composure came up twice on the list. Their two songs last year are great, and so have the singles leading up to this release. It's their first album since 2016.

 

Personally, myself, I think it’s the ampersand/and thing

 

Ceres - Magic Mountain (1996-2022)

 

seeing sixpence none the richer drop a new album is a joy. leigh nash’s voice is an absolute dream.

 

Today was a bigger release day than I expected. I added asterisks next to my recs that I'm most excited about!

Releases I've seen so far:
*Ada Lea - note (indie/folk)
*Balance and Composure - with you in spirit (post hardcore)
*Genevieve Stokes - With a Lightning Strike (folk/pop)
Half Waif - See You At The Maypole (alt/experimental pop)
Lizzy McAlpine - Older (and Wiser)
Maya Hawke - Clipped Wings (folk)
Orla Gartland - Everbody Needs a Hero (alt/indie)
Sixpence None the Richer - Rosemary Hill ()
*The Smile - Cutouts

Items I haven't seen:
Cam Rao - Silver Lining (bedroom pop)
Ethansroom - BIGGER LOVE (dreampop. I guess last week's EP was just an album preview)
Kylie Spence - Everything and Nothing (soft indie folk)
Lotte Callagher - A Better Feeling (folk/indie with an album cover in the same style as Phoebe Bridgers Punisher)
Max Koste - 1999 (indie/bedroom pop)
*Natalie Wilson - Lady & The Champs (piano accented soft rock like Apple commercials from the early 2000s. Her previous song Saratoga has been on repeat for me this year)
Sleater Kinney - Little Rope (y'all already know em)
Sydney Ross Mitchell - Pure Bliss Forever (soft indie folk)

 

It looks like Rookie of the year dropped a new EP it features :
Emarosa, Relient K, Makeout and more. Definitely excited to check this out. I loved both Goodnight Moon records

 

Happy Friday folks! Plenty of new stuff out today to enjoy.
