Week 5 didn’t get any properly submitted from the readers, so it is just TGEFM staff submissions this time around. Remember, TGEFM’s READERS can also submit songs to this list (see the bottom of the post on how to join in).
This week we’ve got new sings by Exploding Head Syndrome, Zebrahead, Skatune Network, Glittering Insects, and LOTEC; as well as an assortment of songs both new(ish) and older.
Sample it below, or head straight to Spotify where you can subscribe to the list!
Here’s the scoop: TGEFM staff are trying something a bit different for 2023. Instead of separate weekly playlists of what we’ve been listening to, we’re launching a year-long playlist, one that will grow each and every week as we add more songs to it. Our requirements are to first submit one NEW song released within the past month, and then one song released at any time. We’ll get the playlist updated on/around Sunday of each week.
Plus, you readers can contribute, too! If you’ve read this far, put in YOUR submissions for next week’s mix in the comments below. Remember, picks only count if they follow the above rules, and are posted in the comments on the TGEFM website. Replies on social media don’t count!
the white drew carey (aka – Jeff Sorley) is the founder and head editor of TGEFM. He’s lived (outside of) Chicago, Madison WI, (ugh) Penn State, Lyon FR, Oxford UK, central New Jersey, and now within earshot of SFO in the Bay Area. When not scouring the web for more great bands and labels to post about, he also spends time drawing (mostly) silly sci-fi and anime stuff under the name Asplenia Studios.

Oooh… Pete… both of those songs are older than four weeks. Your first pick has gotta be within the past for weeks and, if you do that, the second can be from any time!
Shoot us a new one, and then pick which of the others you want to use (this week… remember, there’s always nest week).
