Spiral XP
“Spiral XP is a new project from Max Keyes, drummer from the excellent Seattle indie rock project Versing. Keyes takes center stage in Spiral XP, but retains the volume and some of the disaffected, feverish stylings of his other band with added fuzz and shoegaze aesthetics. It’s a astyle he wears well on the projects upcoming debut EP, Drop Me In, out June 18 on Canafian label Peaceful Tapes and produced by JooJoo Ashworth (Sasami, Froth). Drop Me In will also be in Peaceful Tapes, a new label run by Courtney Garvin of The Courtneys and Gum Country.”
Dusty Henry, KEXP

Fib
Following the release of their self-titled EP, Fib, from Portland OR, take on the US in a country-wide tour. They describe their sound as "kind of like The Urinals meets Wire, with some other garbage thrown in there".

Star Party
Star Party is a new Washington State group formed during the quarantine days of 2020. Carrie Brennan and Ian Corrigan (Gen Pop, Vexx) have joined forces to create something new – a sound they proclaim as “saturated, misty, coastal rock”.
Their four-track demo is comprised of two originals and covers of Shop Assistants and Cher (by way of Bob Dylan). It’s a sound that draws inspiration from eighties Scottish punk and noisy American dream pop of the nineties, with a dash of Seamus Heaney and Alex Taylor hanging in White Sands, New Mexico for lyrical inspiration. Star Party have a curious and compelling set of pop tunes on this 2020 demo and are already hard at work on new material for the brighter days ahead.
