Analog Dream’s new single “Dystopian,” captures the duality of the modern world, merging its chaos with our undying hope. The San Francisco-based project brings indie rock energy, shoegaze guitars and layered harmonies.
“Dystopian” storms in like a call to action, atmospheric synth textures and driving guitars on the frontline. The anthemic chorus calls out those sleepwalking toward the edge, yet ultimately resolves in “it’s not over,” signaling an opportunity for change.
As the band explains, "‘Dystopian’ is the first song we wrote that inspired our desire to focus on a new sound for Analog Dream. The song speaks to the state of the world today from a social and political perspective, while trying to be hopeful."
The single is live everywhere tomorrow, but you can listen now below!

Minnesota based indie-rock shoegaze band she’s green released their debut album, swallowtail, on July 10th. The whimsical seven-track LP is filled with wonder, contemplation, and beautiful instrumental arrangements. We spoke with two members of she’s green, Teddy Nordvold (bass) and Raines Lucas (guitar), to hear about their indie-music hot takes, favorite venues, the prevalence of nature in the band’s aesthetic, and more.
