New York-based rock band Been Stellar has unveiled their highly anticipated debut album,Scream from New York, NY. The record paints a raw and unvarnished portrait of the city’s relentless energy, where human connection can feel strained and elusive.

Drawing inspiration from iconic New York bands like Sonic Youth and Interpol, as well as the melancholic sounds of Iceage and Radiohead’s Bends era, Been Stellar has forged a sound that’s both gritty and captivating.

Listen to the album’s title track for a taste of their unique blend of noise, melody, and emotional intensity below

Scream from New York, NY marks a significant departure from the band’s earlier shoegaze-infused sound, showcasing a bolder, more direct approach that reflects the city’s raw and unforgiving nature. The album certainly captures the essence of New York’s vibrant yet complex landscape.
