Dan’s Boogie is, in true Destroyer fashion, a contradiction: a breakthrough album for Dan Bejar that began its life as a disappearing act and, as such, does things no Destroyer album to this point has ever done. Its nine songs imagine Bejar as a lounge singer, a hustler, and, at...

Audiopile Review: It’s weird when a significant (or just plain famous) artist has their greatest impact with a side project. In the UK, Damon Albarn is a household name for being singer with Britpop titans Blur. But internationally, he’s had more influence and commercial success with whatever Gorillaz is supposed...

Continuing much of the instrumental, musically dense partnership of Loren Connors and Suzanne Langille in the 80s and 90s, Crucible stands out as a clear highlight in the pair's musical partnership, despite the music not featuring the pair performing together. Full of Connor's beautifully droning walls of sound, and Langille...

Japanese Breakfast's fourth studio album, For Melancholy Brunettes (& Sad Women), retreats from the poppy optimism of the group's 2021 breakthrough, Jubilee, and moves toward a mood similar to the comforting sadness of 2017's Soft Sounds from Another Planet.

Beginning with 2023’s One Day, and then Another Day, Someday is the third in a planned four-part project, as ambitious in scope as the Polaris Prize-winning The Chemistry of Common Life or 2014’s criminally underrated Glass Boys.

Originally released in 2001. Bravery, Repetition and Noise is a dark, dreamy album, rich in atmosphere, layered in waves of sound. The album's antecedents are clear, inspired by psychedelia as they were by punk's nihilism, pulling both strands into a doom-laden, experimental sound quite distinct from anything that had come...

Born out of the early 1980’s Austin noise punk scene, Scratch Acid deliberately eschewed the loud, fast rules of hardcore as everything they didn’t want to be and embraced a weirder, artier sound. The band’s eventual permanent line-up consisted of David Yow on vocals, Brett Bradford on guitar, David Wm....

This one to me is a time capsule more than most any of my recordings. All music is a time trapped in time that preaches timelessness—preaching either convincingly or not. But with a radio session such as this, there is a different aspect. It’s all live, all first take, no...

Cult-rock band Frog Eyes announce their second album since reforming in 2021, and their tenth record in a consistently bewildering and inspired catalogue.

The Faint do it their way. Before Electroclash and the wave of 00's Dance-rock there was The Faint, emerging in the late 1990s in Omaha, Nebraska—a place known more for stoic practicality than synth-punk.

Audiopile Review: The people who create musical styles and movements rarely get the credit. Lawrence from Felt basically invented The Smiths and the godlike Peter Hammill basically invented David Bowie (Yes, he did! Stop looking at us like that!!) but neither reaped the rewards. Indeed, fewer musical geniuses seem to...
