For whatever reason, perhaps to stave off boredom and or dementia, or perhaps to create an alternate reality where the world is not an absolute dumpster fire, we here at Feel It HQ have been particularly industrious over the past few months. We have four—yes FOUR—releases to announce this time around. Wowsers. Wosers, indeed. Here we go: Memphis post-punk trio Optic Sink are back with their third album Lucky Number.

We’ve got two quick hitters rocketing out of the Ohio River Valley this week with 7”s from our punky weirdo friends from across the pond in No Peeling and Seattle rippers Fan Club (FKA Lysol).
