Nietzsche track listing:

Wine Lips - TV Dinner

Toronto’s Wine Lips return with “Projector,” the first single from their newly announced fifth album TV Dinner, arriving August 28 on Stomp Records. Drawing from the blown-out spirit of ’90s garage punk while retaining the psychedelic chaos that has become the band’s calling card, “Projector” channels the urgency of Teengenerate, The Hives, New Bomb Turks, Frankie and the Witch Fingers, and Osees into a sharp blast of scorched guitars, pounding drums, and razor-wire attitude.

Dinosaur Jr - There Near

Dinosaur Jr. announce their new album, There Near, out August 28th via Jagjaguwar and release the lead single/video, “Several Got Away.”  Of the “Several Got Away” video, the director Guy Kozak says, “I wanted to do something a little tongue-in-cheek with a kind of ‘backyard movie’ feel that could fit in nicely with the existing canon of dinosaur jr. music videos. The first bit of inspiration came from a great Henry Darger painting of kids being terrorized by two giant floating hands of fire. Then I got thinking about the rapture and it came together from there.

Stab - Lost In Maine

Based in New England, Stab are crafting punchy melodic hardcore that beckons on nostalgia. Today, the band announce their debut album Lost In Maine, set for release on July 24th through Unbeaten Records. Having already shared the single "New England Numb" featuring Citizen’s Mat Kerkes, the band now unveil second single “Irish Goodbye.” Closing out the record, the song jolts from the get go with infectious guitar lines.

Fiddlehead - Baby I'll Change

Fiddlehead are back! Today the beloved band have returned with the announcement of a new three-song EP, Baby I'll Change, arriving this Friday, June 26th, via Run For Cover Records. 

Baby I'll Change is Fiddlehead's first new music since their acclaimed 2023 full-length, Death Is Nothing To Us, and it marks an exciting evolution in the band's approach and sound. 

Team Dresch - Furthermore

Melodic shredders Team Dresch are back with a new full-length thirty years after the last one. The iconic, incendiary queercore punks will release Furthermore via Jealous Butcher Records on September 18, 2026 and are sharing ‘One Song’ today, a tidal wave of guitars, emotive vocals, and booming drums complete with a video starring singer/bassist Jody Bleyle’s daughter.

Doghouse Rose - Born To Break Even

Toronto's Doghouse Rose have shared "Born To Break Even," the first single and title track from their upcoming album due July 31 on Stomp Records. Rooted in the melodic urgency of late-'90s skate punk but carrying equal affection for Blondie, No Doubt, and classic power-pop, the track hits with the reckless energy of NOFX's Ribbed and the hook-heavy swagger of The Muffs.

onelinedrawing - Rainbowmachine

onelinedrawing is thrilled to announce RAINBOWMACHINE, which arrives September 18 via Iodine Recordings. Built from songs written across different eras of Jonah Matranga's life, the record gathers together ideas that lingered for years, melodies that refused to disappear, and collaborations that only made sense once they were already happening.

Today, onelinedrawing shares the video for the first single "This Is A Warning."
