Hooveriii
Time after time, we all talk about... well, time -- often in aphorisms and cliches. X is "a waste of time," while Y is "time well spent." We are all apt to lose track of time but, perhaps in equal measure, we have plenty of time on our hands. We think we have all the time in the world -- until we remember that time flies, after which our time runs out and we're dead (for a long time).
Since 2020, internal clocks have had to be readjusted with the pace of life ebbing and flowing. For Los Angeles psych-rock sextet Hooveriii (pronounced "Hoover Three") that adjustment seeped its way into their songwriting and ultimately their forthcoming album, A Round of Applause.
The record cherrypicks from an array of genres -- pop, girl-group ditties, synth-ish keyboards and funk --but the end result is a cohesive long-player with songs that revolve around the Spanish Inquisition ("Stone Man"); or follow "the legendary Peruvians who run long distances in the Andes Mountains ("The Runner"). "I let my imagination run wild," Hoover said. Elsewhere on A Round of Applause, the Hooveriii frontman finally recorded a song, "The Pearl," that he wrote in 2017. "It sounds like a Harry Nilsson jingle like to me, a fantasy song," he continued. "It's more like a nursery rhyme than a song with an important message. You know, it's just like keeping things fun... Nilsson didn't take everything so fucking seriously. We want to avoid that self-seriousness. We're a bunch of goofy musicians."

Dark Dazey
Dark Dazey is an independent, LA-based psych-rock band with a flare for genre bending. Together, this council of audio fiends and soundscape magicians fuse aesthetics from metal and punk, to latin jazz and country seamlessly into a modern and unique psychedelic rock framework.
They excel on the live stage, breathing new life into their lush studio recordings and roping the audience in on the way. Count on beautiful and often haunting harmonies, face melting guitar riffs, and high intensity jams all in the spirit of theatrical fun. Throughout the show, Dazey invites the audience aboard for any number of communal activities from clapping and crouching to demonic chanting and sticking it to the NRA. It's groovy, boisterous, and no one is having more fun than the band.

Fuckwolf
Fuckwolf has haunted the warehouse shows and dive bar gigs of the Bay Area for almost two decades and traded up a more stilted, typical indie music reality of deadlines, commerce and compulsive documentation for a foggy pursuit of art and sound and more than a few lost years to the endless 7-day weekends of San Francisco's post-millennium glory days.
Goodbye, Asshole, set for release on Bay Area alumni Ethan Miller's Silver Current label November 11th, is a rat's nest of deep grooves, lost 70s rock riff intentions and art punk damage. It is, in equal measures, an effortless sounding expression of the sum of Fuckwolf's history and a prime slab of underground rock with an unmistakably fried 'San Francisco' signature.
