Maura Weaver, one of the Ohio River Valley’s best kept secrets, has produced a true indie-pop gem in the form of her second album Strange Devotion. These songs have enchanted us for months at Feel It HQ and we know they’ll do the same for you—listening to Maura Weaver is a gift one gives oneself, like taking time out of your busy schedule to daydream about your latest crush. Impeccable hooks, heartache, beautiful production, personal growth: this record has it all. The record hits the streets on 9/16 but stream the first single “Prince” now and get lost in the lovely...

As the nation strains under the yoke of the summer heat, as our communities are invaded by masked agents pursuing an agenda of repression, as the future grows more and more uncertain with each passing news cycle, a growl has been emanating from the Ohio River Valley. On August 8 that growl erupts into a roar as Cincy’s Primitive Impulse drop their full-length Piss It Away. 13 tacks that constitute an 18-minute middle finger to a corrupt system: no compromise, no mercy, no bullshit capital H Hardcore.Looking for a bit of respite—get out of the heat and take a break from...

Rest assured that we here at Feel It HQ, nestled in the cradle of the Ohio River Valley, have been busy as of late preparing the latest release from Long Beach’s arty post-punks Self Improvement. Syndrome, the band’s second LP, is an urgent political statement, a refreshing musical collaboration, a document of a band’s continuing growth, and a collection of darn fine songs all in one. The record hits the streets on June 13th, but until then get yourself a pre-order and check out the video for the first single, “Scam”, below! In addition, our pals in Artificial Go are dropping a...

Lung, Cincinnati’s loudest duo involving a cello, comes roaring out of the Ohio River Valley again with their fourth studio album The Swankeeper out on May 30. A pathos inducing blast of noise and melody, the record captures the mixture of terror and beauty that has become our new normal in a profound way. We’ve also got a couple exciting shows at the shop in May with Taakat (members of Mdou Moctar) gracing our stage, joined by Gentle Leader XIV (celebrating the release of Joke In the Shadow) and the Drin (celebrating being the Drin) on the 11th. To put the perfect end...

As the dust settles and the smoke clears from our first Record Store Day, we here at Feel It HQ have raised our weary heads to send you this particular missive as proof-of-life. And as we come to, we're excited to announce new records from Cincy's lovable new / no-wave weirdos & savants Artificial Go and post-punk high priestess Kilynn Lunsford! Both records are set to drop May 16th, but until then check out videos from each below. Leftover goodies from Record Store Day are still available in-store and are available now online. Last but not least, we'd love to see all y'all on April 24th as we celebrate the brick...
