The final notes ring out, as Josh Dominguez’s concluding moments of his latest single, Air It Out, quiets the buzz and clamor of the Peppermint Club crowd. A spell was cast through the track’s confluence of honest candor and lounge jazz, allowing for a moment of silence amongst the audience as Josh delivers the song’s
Every week (ish) I update the Indie Pong playlist with the best tracks in the WORLD. I used to break it down every week but have been a bit lazy, and the requests and cyberbullying are getting to be too much for me, so here is your breakdown. You can follow along and get new
Though not always easy to classify, Old Man Gloom (AKA OMG) are consistent; always releasing great albums that show them evolving without straying too far from the path they laid down on their debut in 1999. OMG have not one but two brand new albums (their 8th and 9th albums respectively) along with a B-sides EP just released. That’s a whole lot of
As far as albums that I can’t understand the lyrics to go this album is a solid 10. You’d think it would just be downhill from the album’s centerpiece single Umami but it just keeps getting better. Think Yelle 2.0 but like… better? This was one of those albums for me where I flagged the
I had two introductions to Coheed and Cambria’s music— 3 years apart from each other. My first introduction was in 2009. Partly by chance, “The Willing Well III: Apollo II: The Telling Truth,” made its presence known to me. I was pretty much head over heels, though I didn’t do anything about it. There have
Jess Weimer is BACK in a big way with her new banger pop single ‘New Truth’ under her new alias Jessica Mar. You can hear the Kansas BBQ sauce in Jess’s hearty vocals here as she drives through some stellar production on this autobiographical telling of the journey leading up to her rebrand. In typical
Studio Barnhus’s new compilation is a winner
Just a quick introduction as I’m new to Indie Pong. I’m your resident metalhead but I do dabble in the genres & sub-genres in and slightly out of metal including rock, prog, and even synthwave (the darker the better). I’m the guy who wears a Ghost shirt one day and Dream Theater the next, with probably a Nile hat for good measure. Anyhow, whether
“Fulfilliness’ First Finale”, is a piece of art. Featuring only 10 songs, with six of them ranking amongst Stevie Wonder’s absolute best, it’s my favorite album from what people call his, “genius,” period, and it features perhaps the first song to move me to tears in my adult life. The album came into my life
It’s always kind of bothered me that George Duke gets left out of the conversation regarding the 20th century piano and/or keyboard giants. Herbie Hancock, Keith Jarret, and Chick Corea might have had better chops (and they all played with Miles Davis) but I’ll take a George Duke album over something by them, almost every
