Melkbelly, formed by vets of Chicago’s experimental and DIY scene champions, organized
noise and thoughtful freneticism on its debut full-length, Nothing Valley, fusing
dreamy vocal lines and cantankerous guitar racket. Its songs clang and bang in
stripped-down production that highlights the band’s sharp edges; multi-faceted slabs
of sound serve harmonious, immediate songs.

session in Bloomington, Indiana.

Constructed largely solo in her garage and fleshed out with the help of a few key
helpers, the music is driven by grunge-esque guitars and passages of quiet piano.

Sad13 is the solo project of Sadie Dupuis of Speedy Ortiz. The project sees Dupuis
showing us her pop side, in particular taking inspiration from the likes of Tracey
Ullman and Joan Armatrading, although a little math rock creeps in here and there.
Haunted Painting is her second album, following 2016’s Slugger. Edition of 500 copies.
