New Music Recommendations

Norwegian noisy Alt Rock band, Honningbarna, dropped another absolute banger of a record called Soft Spot. I was a huge fan of their record Animorphs back in 2022, so I was ecstatic to see a new release from them. I would compare Honningbarna to maybe an aggressive version of The Hives? There is a European Rock n Roll kind of swagger to their music mixed with a Punk like aggression. Give it a spin. FFO: The Hives, Horsegirl, Death By Unga Bunga, The White Stripes
