Massive Nightmares
Ain't My World
Massive Nightmares' debut LP Ain't My World arrives October 30, 2026 via Black Numbers. Recorded with Trevor Reilly at Anchor End Studio, the eleven-song album turns the Boston quartet's riff-heavy indie punk, power-pop hooks and stacked harmonies into a bigger set of sing-along anthems.
Queens of the Stone Age
Perfecth
Queens of the Stone Age return with their ninth studio album, Perfecth , out October 30, 2026 via Matador Records.

Rita
Paerish return with Rita , their fourth full-length, out October 16, 2026 via SideOneDummy Records.

Jawdropped
Secret To Spare
Jawdropped’s debut album Secret To Spare arrives September 18, 2026 via Transgressive Records / Canvasback, pairing '90s-minded indie rock and power-pop hooks with a ragged alt-country streak.
