Hotline TNT

Hotline TNT is a band that brings the Sebadoh style classic grunge sound into the contemporary shoegaze sound, or maybe it is the other way around. Either way, the result is a mixture between that familiar wall of distortion effect and melodic alt-rock riffs with aggressive accents that maintain a nice balance as their old school hooks and indie rock rhythms peer through the shoegaze veil. Plus, the band brought in a power pop component to their 2025 album Raspberry Moon, which complements all that angst that comes with the cocktail of styles they present. Their songs are melodically sturdy, the band ably navigates the shifts within and across these styles with well-earned confidence.
