The Tonearm "I wasn't even thinking about cultural representation or anything like that. I truly was just like, 'I want to teach my husband Chinese so that he can speak to my family.' Then, as we started playing shows, a lot of Chinese Americans would come up to me and share that they had loved hearing Mandarin sung at an indie venue."

Luke This is a really wonderful record. Deceptive in its simplicity, but compelling in its details. Sharing, for me, an affinity with somebody like Elliott Smith in his simultaneous respect for folk traditions and complete punk irreverence. Charming melodies fizz and crackle into distorted tender oblivion. Thank you to Taika for the discovery.

allieanasu so incredibly warm, excited for the full release. love the textures, vocals, and overall vibe, easily going to be a standout of 2026 Favorite track: 水槽 / Suisou.
