Amoeba Hollywood
Well. 2025 is in session. Shaky times. You know when there's an earthquake and once you realize it's not the big one, you're struck by how tenuous everything suddenly feels? I feel that way spiritually. My heart is broken for all the families that lost so much in the fires. That week in the store, listening to music was a balm for my soul. I reached back for my standbys and they did not disappoint. Comfort is a precious thing. Every time I make a MWL entry, I talk about how grateful I am to get to be with the folks who make Amoeba a part of their lives. And every time it's true. Thank you to everyone. Please remember that the process of trying to rebuild a life after your home has been destroyed is a long and painful one. Go Fund Me is still full of people who need help. Nothing is too small. Please consider picking a person or family to support.
I Don't Wanna Win (LP)
The Holy Knives
Born and raised in New Orleans, now living in Los Angeles, with some time in Texas, The Holy Knives create music that provides a portal into their world. Under the guidance of Jamie Hince (The Kills), The Holy Knives worked to string together the sounds of each piece of their journey, weaving in a bit of the dark swagger of New Orleans, with a few nods to desert psychedelia and the chopped and screwed of Texas, it’s got atmosphere for days. Check out their EP “I Don’t Wanna Win.” It’s available on vinyl right here at Amoeba!

The Altons
The Altons did an in-store at Amoeba and low-key wowed the spot. From Southeast L.A. this band is simmering to a boil. “Heartache in Room 14,” their debut album feels like an instant classic. It’s got the backyard BBQ timelessness and that type of melancholy soul that sounds “effortless” because it comes from such an authentic place, but is forged by the blood, sweat and tears of holding onto your vision. I felt so lucky to get a chance to see such a dynamic vibe. I know their story is just beginning.
