EQD on Record : May 2023
Another month, another batch of amazing releases from our EarthQuaker artists … i.e., the folks who remind us why we do this. Sure, our pedals are pretty and all, but to hear that they’re being used to inspire songs and albums spanning the genres from gothic folk to shoegaze, experimental to electronic and metal to psych … plus some tracks in the new John Wick 4?? Chef’s kiss.
