Once upon a time, the visceral rock of the Velvets, Bowie & the Stooges was the definitive alternative pop and this is something Native Sun understands.

Now this is more like it! A band that self-identifies as a punk band and none of that fuckin’ “pop-punk” bullshit!
THE LISTENING BOOTH | POP POWER!!! : STIIR – “FREE YOURSELF
Why describe yourself as “alternative pop” when it’s obvious that you are influenced by Orange Juice and Josef K – purveyors of classic ’80s indie pop?

Perfect indie pop? “Afterglow” from Nashville trio The Lonely Biscuits comes pretty damn close.
THE LISTENING BOOTH | POP POWER !!! : TIM HALPERIN – WEIGHTLESS
We are certainly not fans of typical modern pop but we give credit where it’s due. So … we must confess that Tim Halperin’s new single “Weightless” is catchy as fuck and scores very low on the cringe factor. WIN!
THE LISTENING BOOTH | THE NEW ROCK N ROLL : STAY INSIDE – “FEVER AND JEALOUSY”
We don’t give much credence to sub-genre classifications cuz they are severely limiting. Stay Inside are associated with “emo”, “post-hardcore” and “post-punk” and one might even mention “prog-pop” or “math-rock” but for us, we will stick to The New Rock N Roll!
