The Rising: Intro5pect

The Rising: Rainbow Arabia
The L.A. duo have mastered the craft of the ear safari - even if they haven’t made their debut LP yet. Spouses Danny and Tiffany Preston talk with us about their new tunes, their new dog - and why a husband-and-wife duo actually involves way less drama than your average four-piece band.

The Rising: Mountanaka
Finally, Black Sabbath and Norman Mailer have something in common.
Ottawa sludge-meisters Mountanaka don’t want to take over the world. They don’t want to sell a million records. They don’t want to play arenas. They don’t want to make it rich off their music. No, this isn’t fiction you’re reading.
