ALBUM REVIEW: "Woods / Amps For Christ" by Woods / Amps For Christ
Experimental, lo-fi, and still a lot of fun? Woods has it!
Split albums are rarely game-changers – by their very nature they come across like a communal hug for all those involved. This is no different; in fact, as far as Woods are concerned, this feels like an excuse to utilise a few tracks that they have been unable to find a home for on the their recent run of excellent releases. Then there's Amps for Christs (aka experimentalist Henry Barnes) – whose work here is in no mood for compromise, despite his new housemates. In fact, he is happy to split the record further with an array of [...]

You may remember Erika Anderson from her part in the feedbackfolk duo Gowns . Well, her latest project under the moniker EMA is set to be released on May 10th via the Souterrain Transmissions label. Promo materials describe her sound as "lo-fi four-track grunge, trashy dance beats and damaged girl group ballads," and I guess that's fairly apt. Here is track four from Past Life Martyred Saints . Listen. Downloadable: Milkman (mp3) You can preorder Past Life Martyred Saints @ insound.com . [...]

want to know what kinda place this freaky skeletal shit is coming from? read erika anderson's liner notes: listening to this recording evokes a time when we were barely holding on by our fingernails. ezra had broken bones in his foot, which the cold and rain didn't help. there were points during that tour where i just kind of lost my mind, and during the recording of heaven there was a moment where i completely forgot where i was, who i was, and what i was doing.

"Hey, Heavy D, what you got for me today? Got some heavy boulders? Shake 'em and they sound like dice?" That was the chant Jimmy Oliver heard when he walked down South Washington Street in Lansing, Michigan. Heavy D was his nickname, after the fat rapper whose girth Jimmy shares. And the heavy boulders? Those were the rocks of crack riding in Jimmy's jeans. A few years ago, Jimmy was a rich young drug dealer who could blow $12,000 over a weekend -- partying with prostitutes and buying big dinners for a dozen of the false friends his money bought. [...]
