Last year, Chris Farren, a handsome and distinguished gentleman of the pop-punk persuasion, surprise-released his album Death Don’t Wait (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), an instrumental score to a spy thriller that does not exist. Today, Farren has announced plans to follow that record with one that seems slightly less unhinged. Farren recorded his forthcoming LP Doom Singer with producer Melina Duterte, better known as Jay Som, who also engineered and mixed the album. Today, he has set first single “Cosmic Leash” loose upon an unsuspecting world.

Bay Area post-hardcore greats Loma Prieta have been around for almost 20 years, but they go long periods without releasing new music. It’s been eight years since Loma Prieta released Self Portrait, their most recent LP. In the time since then, there’s been a two-song single, 2019’s “Continuum” b/w “Fate.” Last year, the band released a minute-and-a-half rager called “Sunlight.” That turned out to be the first taste of their new album Last, which is finally coming out this summer.
