Catspaw (Omnivore Recordings). Review by James Mann.
If you got The Nude Party to perform at your next get-together, it would be the kind of shindig that produces two marriages, three break-ups, and gossip for years to come.
Hissing steam and spitting fire, the Old 97s chew up the rails and cross-ties by playing country music with a punk attitude.
Listening to Fantastic Negrito is like lifting the lid on a simmering pot to a wonderfully exotic yet very familiar blend of spices.
The extremely productive Messer Chups hails from St. Petersburg, Russia, and is currently going through some very heavy surf.
The world of Khruangbin is made up of velvet sunsets, shimmering dunes, and cool river rocks. There’s also a guitar, some drums, and a bass. And lately, vocals.
There is no shortage of consuming urgency to the sound of this UK trio called simply Shopping.
Taste The Blood of Guitaracula (MuSick Recordings). Review by Carl F Gauze.
