#NewMusicFriday: Febraury 6th 2026

A quieter week sees new albums from Karnivool, Puscifer, and Dream Nails leading this week’s #NewMusicFriday releases. Beyond them, there is Irish “Texans” Uncultivates. They’ve ridden into town with an erratic display of math-laden post-hardcore in the form of ‘This Will Become Clear Later, Like The French Revolution’. It twists and pulsates with hardcore bursts, only to add a Southern Americana twist, making for one album that shouldn’t be ignored.

Today also sees releases from Dirt Buyer, TailgunnerAll The Damn Vampires, and more.
