Desire Pathway
by Screaming Females
Sadly, Screaming Females have called it a day, but what an album to go out on! Imagine Nirvana, but with a female singer/guitarist who totally shreds - melodic punk with chops.

Natural Flavors
by Bully Pulpit
Psychedelic power pop from the mind of Thomas Banks. One of the artists whose personality comes through completely in the music created with an all-star collection of Chicago indie rockers.

A Different Kind of Hell
by Bloodletter
Killer melodic death metal from this Chicago band, whose philosophy is that any riff is better harmonized. This album doesn't let up and leaves you breathless by the end.
