Cycles Per Second 12/03/25: Bandcamp, etc. Links

On this week’s show: Pulsating pop from Paris (Alvilda) to Helsinki (Teini-Pää). German indie from taut (MARAUDEUR) and minimal (Jejeje) to expansive (Melting Palms) and psychedelic (LOBSTERBOMB). Japanese retro power-pop (FRETBUZZ), gentle British guitar psych (The Bevis Frond) and heaps of new American indie rock from Chicago (Mint Mile), Atlanta (Arbor Labor Union), Brooklyn (Inland Years), Providence (Older Brother) and Washington, DC (Nice Breeze).

If you’re a whole album kind of person, I’ve got great news for you, in the form of links to the full releases from which the songs on this show were harvested…
