The soundtrack of this week = genre-bending British, Australian, and Midwestern accents. Not featured on this list, The Great American Novel, the new full length from Proper. Holy shit though, that thing is good. This week had a massive New Music Friday. Go find something new to listen to on repeat like I am. Don’t […]

This week, I spent a lot of time illegally standing and driving laps around blocks in NYC. During which, I had a super solid soundtrack of bands with British, Australian, Canadian, and Midwestern accents. Would the New Yorker’s be made at me? Who cares. Go find something new to listen to on repeat like I […]

Somehow this week I managed to pick mostly bands from overseas. In fact, three days in a row I randomly picked three fantastic bands from the UK. Don’t sleep on UK punk (and I use the punk term broadly). You probably need to put on a flannel to listen to the tracks added this week. […]

It’s hard to tell if I’m being honest this week because there is no way this is the first time I’m hearing some of these bands. Is it? Anyway, this week I found myself looking at a lot of show flyers like it was the early 2000s. Do people still find new bands by looking […]

Is this your first time checking out a BOTD Weekly recap? Thanks! Let me get you caught up…I used to challenge myself to listen to at least one new band every single day (new to me that is). I’ve never actually been successful in completing this challenge. I skipped a few years between 2018-2021, but […]

One of my favorite parts of this daily treasure hunt is that I have absolutely no idea what to expect from any of the records I push play on. I’m almost always pleasantly surprised. So many hidden gems just waiting to be found (and it’s not that hard to find them). Go find them. Here’s […]

Answers to questions you didn’t ask: We choose bands at random. We listen to all types of genres. We love finding bands from all over the world. East Coast, while this week was mostly about you, my absolute favorite find of the week came from Norway. Go discover something new. Here’s the recap of 7 […]

This week was a definite reminder of why I enjoy discovering new bands. One, there are so many bands to discover. Two, there are so many bands making such great music just waiting to be discovered. Go discover something. Here’s the recap of 7 new (to us) bands we listened to last week (1/31 – […]

It was somehow a Midwest majority this week. We also took a trip to Canada, Norway, and Australia. (this is a travel blog now…) Here’s the recap of 7 new (to us) bands we listened to last week (1/24 – 1/30). xoxo Jaclyn Week 4 01/24: OvergrowI checked out the 2021 release, Hear Your Voice […]

This week we started and ended in the UK, with stops in the States and Germany. (The pandemic has me missing traveling something awful!) Here’s the recap of 7 new (to us) bands we listened to last week (1/17 – 1/23). xoxo Jaclyn Week 3 01/17: CherymI started with the 2021 EP, Hey Tori. It […]
