RGV Album Roundup 09/28/21
Some of the latest RGV releases. Idiosyncratic hip-hop and pop, bloody boombap noir, and emo with a sense of humor.
HiMarcus - Dirtbag
The sound of 2000’s club hits is reborn into a reflection of modern innovation. Malleable song structures, angular melodies, and unpredictable quirks lead to a flamboyant and impressive embodiment of today’s hip-hop and pop bohemia.
Evolve - Back From the Dead
Not even death can stop the chase for money and ass. Evolve’s alter ego Ciggy Burns lives at the thrilling and chilling intersection of boombap, horrorcore, and noir.
Gesture - Happy Birthday
Thick cascading guitars with agile drums and bass in a short album full of pop-punk fun and tongue-in-cheek emo cringe.
Bummertrash - Not Worth Stealing
If playful wallowing in self-depreciation is your thing, than this album has it all: the awkward emo of bands like Saves The Day, demo-quality recording, the disparaging band name and album title, and a continuous wave of goofiness.
