About Jeff Rosenstock:
Jeff Rosenstock makes increasingly chaotic albums for an increasingly chaotic world. With each passing year, it feels like the temperature of the universe boils five degrees hotter, and with each new album, Rosenstock’s music grows more unwieldy and lawless. Louder, faster, more feral. Which brings us to 2023—a planet on fire, a mere 90 seconds to midnight on the doomsday clock, and the release of Rosenstock’s appropriately titled, anarchic record, HELLMODE.
“To me, the album feels like the chaos of being alive right now,” Rosenstock says of HELLMODE. “We’re experiencing all these things at the same time that trigger our senses, and emotions that make us feel terrible. We’re just feeling way too much all at once!” But for all its textured turmoil, there are also surprising glimpses of clarity and grace to be found in HELLMODE, when Rosenstock deliberately slows things down in places that are prettier and more delicate, rare moments of shelter in the storm. Which only makes it more rewarding when these moments unexpectedly unravel and spiral back into extreme, manic chaos, like abruptly being flung into a Nintendo game on level 99.
HELLMODE marks the fifth studio album the prolific Rosenstock has released in the last ten years under his own name, following the dissolution of his beloved cult projects Bomb the Music Industry! and The Arrogant Sons of Bitches. Also tucked into his rapidly expanding catalog is a live record, a ska reimagining of his 2020 album NO DREAM, and various dumps of stray songs and loose singles. And somewhere on the side, he has found time to score the Emmy-nominated animated series Craig of the Creek.
About Kingfishr:
Kingfishr offer an earnest, pop-inflected Irish indie folk that’s suited for the festival stage as well as the beer garden. Starting out as an acoustic trio, the group went to the top of the singles chart in Ireland with 2024’s “Killeagh,” a heartfelt tribute to a sport club in the village in County Cork. Featuring fuller arrangements and bringing electric components into the mix, they made their full-length major-label debut a year later with Halcyon.
Kingfishr was founded by singer/guitarist Edmond “Eddie” Keogh, banjo player Eoghan “McGoo” McGrath, and bassist Eoin “Fitz” Fitzgibbon, who all met in the master’s program for engineering at the University of Limerick. They graduated, then started writing songs together during sustained periods of sheltering from the COVID-19 pandemic. The trio debuted on streaming services with a live track in 2022, and before the end of the year, they landed in Ireland’s Top 40 with both “Flowers-Fire” and a studio version of earlier single “Eyes Don’t Lie.” The EP Live from Doonane appeared in 2023, and that year they had their third Top 40 hit with the stand-alone single “Caroline.”
