Ringo Starr, Look Up

With the aid of producer T Bone Burnett and an exciting guest list, the Beatle finds a relaxed fit for his surprisingly modern easy-does-it C&W ballads.

Shutdown, By Your Side

Written through an older and wiser lens, the NYC hardcore punks’ new EP contains the same kind of ebullience that the band possessed when they last released material 25 years ago.

Lambrini Girls, Who Let the Dogs Out

The UK duo hurls hand grenades in the direction of contemporary society’s myriad ills across their riotously fun yet deadly serious indie-punk debut.

Since it wrapped up last weekend, we’re already looking back on Noise Pop—the Bay Area’s ultimate build-your-own music festival, spanning seven days and fifteen venues between San Francisco and Oakland—with satisfaction, nostalgia, and, of course, a bit of contemplating an alternative reality in which we totally overhauled our schedules.

For those who missed Tei Shi, Japanese Breakfast, No Age, The Coathangers, and other stellar performers, the best we can offer is the live experience in photos, which you’ll probably want to factor into your scheduling rituals next year.
