Buildings - Melt, Cry, Sleep

Feb 2, 3:32am

Despite their debut Braille Animal coming out in 2008, I'd never heard of Buildings up until last year. It may or may not have been the best time to discover them, since just as soon as I had a chance to listen to Braille Animal I was made aware that they had a new album coming out in only a matter of a month or two. I'm not sure if that complicates things sometimes, but the immediate reaction is always the more the merrier. Their debut was a [...]

Britches - Demonstration

Feb 1, 2:05am

Happened upon the St. Louis trio of Britches awhile back when they had a five song online demo up for download. Admittedly I didn't give them much thought afterward, but then this album showed up late last year and happily gave them another go around. At the very least the demo was oddball enough to warrant it. They seem to have a recurring thing with incorporating the word "demo" into the name of their releases, this one being Demonstration and the previous release titled Democracy. I assume that these aren't just cleverly named demos [...]

A FUCKING ELEPHANT VS. EL DRUGSTORE

Jan 28, 11:34am

Review Stalker

ALBUM REVIEW: Little did these two bands know that their last performance would leave behind rubble and a set of burnt out souls. I'm of course talking about the fire that destroyed the Sound Station in Westfield where above video was shot a week before that tragic Sunday on Jan 22nd, 2012. This was not their intent only metaphorically of course. Bob Larsen the owner loves to celebrate all sorts of music and these guys were part of that musical entertainment. So, if your a fan of noise, as he is, and copious guitar notes then [...]

Fleshpress / Throat - Split 7'' & Throat - Pee 7''

Jan 27, 4:00am

Fleshpress / Throat - Split 7'' & Throat - Pee 7''

More noise from Finland based monsters Throat . This time throwing two new 7-inches at us, one being a split with fellow Finnish sludge mongers Fleshpress. I can't say I've really given much of a listen to Fleshpress in the past, but what I have heard was some incredibly slowed down and exhausting doom/sludge material on their LP Pillars . So, it goes without saying, I was a bit surprised to hear them on this split coming out of the gate [...]

Northern Liberties - Glowing Brain Garden LP

Northern Liberties - Glowing Brain Garden LP

First thing I noticed about Glowing Brain Garden was the elaborate artwork that is featured pretty much everywhere on the record. It also includes a couple inserts that also display the same type of sprawling images. Have to appreciate the type of effort that went into putting this together, a completely self-funded venture it would appear and one that is obviously a labor of love. As for Northern Liberties and their music, they actually kind of mimic what you see covering every inch of this release. [...]

His Electro Blue Voice - Dead Sons 12''

Jan 17, 3:33am

I was a bit late getting into the Italian trio of His Electro Blue Voice , not really hearing them until I listened to their Animal Versus single on Batshit Records that came out a couple years ago. After that however, I found myself seeking out whatever else they had released. As it turns out they aren't the most prolific band, hanging around since 2006 or so and spitting out a single here and there, so doing so wasn't terrible hard. The release of this 12-inch, Dead Sons [...]

Pop. 1280 - Bodies in the Dunes by sacredbones The horror! The horror! Pop. 1280 is a New York band that blends dark, moody post-punk vibes with plenty of guitar noise.

God Bows to Math - Self-Titled

Jan 11, 3:31am

Yep, that would be a Minutemen reference you see there, however that's pretty much where that homage stops. God Bows to Math are an Auckland, New Zealand based group that I first noticed with their EP from earlier last year and enjoyed enough to throw on a podcast. Didn't realize an album was already in the plans, but as it turns out they've been trying to get this thing together for awhile now with a number of hangups along the way and finally getting it released towards the end of [...]

Mac DeMarco "Baby's Wearin Blue Jeans"

Jan 6, 12:23am

Mixtape Maestro

After a few years spent fronting lo-fi Canadian outfit Makeout Videotape (check out the band's music here ), Montreal-based vocalist/ guitarist Mac DeMarco has opted to step out on his own, signing with New York indie label Captured Tracks with plans to drop solo EP Rock and Roll Night Club on March 20th. "Baby's Wearin Blue Jeans" is one of the cuts to be featured on the upcoming mini-collection and boy it's an entrancing one, rocking some waterlogged-woozy indie-rock swagger as a delectable frame for DeMarco's obsession over a woman who [...]

Terry Malts- "Tumble Down"

Dec 15, 2011, 9:09pm

After a few singles on Slumberland Records, San Francisco trio Terry Malds is dropping a full-length album on the label. It should be out in February of 2012. The fuzzy, simple, and reverbed characteristics that were present on previous material are on this new track, but the total package is a bit thicker, heavier this time around.

Total Control- "One More Tonight"

Nov 30, 2011, 1:06pm

Henge Beat by Total Control A track from post-punk outfit Total Control. I'm a little late on the uptake of the group's latest album, Henge Beat , but it sounds like it'll be a pretty nice listen since I dug that Iceage album that came out earlier this year. Stream the song "One More Tonight" above, and grab the album for $7.70 on the band's Bandcamp . Pick up a copy here .
