Taleen Kali flourishes on their debut album Flower of Life
On their first album Flower of Life, Los Angeles band Taleen Kali delivers. The release is ten tracks of guitar-driven songs that pull from goth, punk, and brit rock. Lead singer / songwriter Taleen’s heavenly vocals over layers of distortion creates an exquisite harmony. The album is the perfect companion to a collapsing world. Read our interview with Taleen in which she discusses recording, DUM DUM Zine, and finding her tribe in LA.

Been Stellar Shines In A Crowded City
Been Stellar, the 5-piece indie rock band from Brooklyn, is onto something. The band turns everyday observations into fascinating stories of city life. By resisting to emulate their influences, the band has tapped into a new sound. Vocalist Sam Slocum and guitarist Skyler St. Marx talk to us about authenticity in songwriting, playing shows in the US and NYC’s power to inspire and interfere with the band’s creative process.
