• Radiohead, Snocaps, & the Rapper Zohran Mamdani Might Not Be NYC Mayor Without

  On this week's episode of BV Weekly, Dave and Andrew discuss the Radiohead comeback shows and then look at two surprise-releases from this past week: the debut album from Katie (Waxahatchee) & Allison Crutchfield's (Swearin') new band Snocaps, which also features MJ Lenderman and Brad Cook; and the new guest-filled EP from Heems that features Panda Bear of Animal Collective, Lee Ranaldo of Sonic Youth, Anand Wilder of Yeasayer, and Unknown Mortal Orchestra. We also discuss how Heems just so happens to be the indie-rapper that helped inspire NYC's new Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani to pursue his already-historic political career. Also highlighted in this episode: new albums from Danny Brown, Drain, Rosalía, and more; new songs from Nothing, Noname, redveil, and more; and exciting announcements from Outbreak Fest, Henry Rollins & Ian MacKaye, Death Grips, and AC/DC.   Email [email protected] with any feedback or questions!
