37 Houses' sophomore album out now, Summer tour June-July

“Packed with bright, jangly guitars and powerful, resounding vocals.” — New Noise

“Moody ear-candy…Another great record from a local band in our midst proves pain begets the most vivid art.” – SF Bay Guardian / 48 Hills

"A candid exploration of love, regret, and personal growth wrapped in a melody that feels both relatable and raw." -- Static Multimedia

"Poignant, melodic indie rock in the key of mid-90s Matador Records. Fans of Helium and Bettie Serveert alike should check it out." -- Rock and Roll Globe

“Jeremy’s songwriting unfolds like a series of poetic Polaroids, while Erin’s vocals tear through them with emotion…It’s a vulnerable, beautiful mess and we’re all invited in.” — It’s Psychedelic Baby!

“Impactful and powerful blends of pop-punk, post-punk, indie rock, hints of garage, and plenty more, all coated with this sort of pop sensibility and riddled with personality throughout the entire thing.” — Buzzslayers

"If you're a sucker for a huge voice, then you're going to love cranking this." -- Austin Town Hall

San Francisco band 37 Houses release their sophomore album today, titled When and How It Happened. The 12-song recording nods to the playful sounds of classic 90s Indie Rock while addressing subjects of unusual romantic entanglements. Hear and share When and How It Happened on DSPs HERE.

The band tours the Pacific Northwest in late June, then the Midwest in mid-July. East Coast and Southeast shows in late Summer will also be announced soon. Please see current dates below.

MAGNET Magazine recently premiered the single "Helium" HERE. Watch the official video for the original album version of "Jealous Love" on YouTube. Watch/share the video for "It Stays With Me" on YouTube.

37 Houses has always been a journal of lead singer Erin Sydney and guitarist Jeremy Rosenblum’s marriage. Started as a way to process going into lockdown four months after getting married, the music has become a running expression of the love and pain they experience together. When and How it Happened is the next chapter in that story: written over 18 months about the process of learning to be, and not be, polyamorous in a developing marriage.

The songs were written as the events transpired and they capture the raw emotions of deeply personal moments. Neither person knew how this would end while it was being written. Helium, about a few days spent with a girlfriend, and a few months dealing with the feelings it created, captures that angst and grief. Album opener Shadow Puppets sings an apology, an acknowledgement, and a resignation of hope, while maintaining the fierce undercurrent of unconditional love. Acoustic tracks Unloveable and Love Song contrast each other; one song about the darkest moments, and the other an expression of neverending love to hold onto when things feel overwhelming. This album also represents the first time Erin Sydney composed songs on the album, with Event Horizon and Only a Smile Remains giving voice to her struggle, her pain, and her ability to grow through it all.

When it came time to record, the band decided it needed to be as raw and urgent as the songwriting. Renting a house in the mountains of Colorado, they set up the band live and recorded all the instrument tracks in just 4 days. The recording captures exactly what happened between the band members in a whirlwind of creative expression. It is a loving tribute to the early days of rock and roll, favoring cranked amps and feel over perfectly placed hits and polished layers. And because 37 Houses is always a product of the house Erin and Jeremy share, the vocals and acoustic tracks were once again recorded in their bedroom.

This is a record about a discreet moment and how you face it. This is a record capturing a discrete moment in the history of the band. This is When and How it Happened.

When and How It Happened will be available on Limited Edition LP and digital on May 29th, 2026. Orders are available HERE.

HARBOURED (Allegaeon + Oak, Ash & Thorn members) 2nd album out now, post-metal/progressive black metal trio's highly praised return

"Brings the post-rock energy... Much like its video, 'Impermanent Cell' is a mote of light in an otherwise endlessly dark room, projecting itself into the void forever." -- Metal Injection

“The quality of the musicianship is flawlessly brilliant, the songwriting tight and concise, the breadth of scope a refreshing alternative to a lot of the blinkered offerings around.” – Echoes & Dust

“A potent mix of post-black metal fury and heavy ’90s alt rock emotional passion.” — Decibel Magazine

"Pulls tech-death and ambient black metal into a strange collision with indie rock." -- Psychedelic Baby

"A record that promises depth, warmth and a quietly devastating sense of honesty." -- Metal Epidemic

Denver, CO trio Harboured release their second full length album today on Lost Future Records. The album, We're Only The Love That We Lead is now available to hear and share on Bandcamp and all streaming platforms HERE.

Heavy Blog is Heavy named it their Top Pick of the Week. Metal Epidemic gave the album a 4.5/5 stars.

Decibel Magazine recently premiered the lead track "Dead Ringer" HERE. Echoes & Dust previously launched the band's interpretation of "Agenda Suicide", originally written by early 2000's synth punk band The Faint HERE.

Harboured return with their sophomore album entitled We’re Only The Love That We Lead. Growing as a band in every way imaginable, the trio power through styles and genres with a confident and aggressive stance that declares them as one of the most original acts in the metal scene today. Incorporating elements of tech/death, blackgaze and ambient black metal, WOTLTWL is a journey through the sonic landscape of modern metal, and it is all held together by virtuoso performances from Michael Stancel (Allaegeon), Brandon Michael (Allaegeon) and Cierra White (Oak, Ash and Thorn). The three once again recorded with Scott Evans (Kowloon Walled City) at Anti-Sleep Studios in Oakland, who brings his live feel and raw energy to these songs.

HARBOURED was formed by Michael Stancel in Denver, CO in 2020 with Cierra White, Brandon Michael and Nick Hennig. Hennig left the band in 2021 and they now play as a three piece.

Artist Notes:

When writing for this record, we really wanted to make something that felt more personal and emotionally attached to us, but didn’t want it to be too “heart on your sleeve”, “oversharing”, or “whiny ex-boyfriendcore”. It took me a really long time to figure out how to disguise these things in a way that felt more unique or less obvious. I’ve always had an interest in engineering and infrastructure, specifically the failures of both, and found I could use these failures as metaphors for the failures we have as people, whether that’s in our personal lives, our relationships, or our morality. I felt writing in that way would let me express myself from the heart, without it just being a bunch of songs about people and relationships, like a million records before.

We also wanted to give our sound a clearer direction. Our first release was more on this darker /“blackgaze-y” sound, and it was great, but I found that this one needed to be something that brings more mood and more depth. I really leaned into my love of alternative/indie bands and brought in elements of that genre into the sound. Often thinking in directions like “what would Pheobe Bridgers do if she listened to Failure and Alcest,” and trying to make something that I love and maybe other people who don’t listen to a ton of heavy music might love too. I definitely feel we’ve made something that we’re all really proud of and that people will really enjoy and hopefully resonate with.

We're Only The Love That We Lead is available on streaming and download on May 29, 2026 via Lost Future Records. Orders are available HERE.
