Audiopile Review: Whenever a fiercely independent shop favourite makes the leap to a well known label, we can’t help but feel a bit of apprehension. Those concerns dissolve almost instantly after hearing the ambient tone poem that opens Maria Somerville’s 4AD debut, Luster. Coming six years after her previous album,...

"Penza Penza are in very different territory here – paying tribute to the glory days of the 60s surf instrumental – but with all the unusual twists and turns that make their music so great! Things are still pretty funky – but there's also a lot of echo and fuzz...

Double LP edition (300 copies) of Eastern Europe's first shoegaze album, featuring the 1993 John Peel Session as a bonus.

BIG|BRAVE’s preternatural instincts and depth of skill as musicians are on full display on their most naked and austere record to date, OST. The trio entered the studio with broader concepts and themes in mind, but no preconceived music. The overarching concept was to make a film score for a...

Julien Baker & TORRES’ Send A Prayer My Way was written and sung in the best of the outlaw tradition—defiant, subversive, working class, and determined to wrestle not only with addiction, regret and bad decisions, but also with oppressive systems of power. Mercifully, this is only the beginning of the...

Since 2012, New York City singer-songwriter Nate Amos (Water From Your Eyes, My Idea) has recorded and self-released hundreds of songs under the This Is Lorelei moniker, and perhaps surprisingly, after a decade plus, Box for Buddy, Box for Star marks the first attempt at a traditional, intentionally written full-length...

Funded by Capitol, tracked in 14 studios, issued by Tiger Style, and lost in the Y2K shuffle, Ida’s fourth album captures a band caught between Brooklyn and Woodstock, temping and adulting, burying a parent and birthing a child. A tireless compendium and ode to sleep, sex, all-night talking, and other...

Jensen McRae could've been down for the count. "The most profound choices of my life,” she says, “have often felt like things I did before I was ready to do, and I had to grow into them.” McRae’s songs have a way of giving shape to these leaps, cliff jumps...

Bovine excision, a mysterious phenomenon involving the bloodless surgical removal of cattle organs, serves as the eerie inspiration for the opening track of Samia's third album, aptly titled Bloodless. Her voice flows through the evocative lyrics with ease, weaving through the gentle strum of a lone acoustic guitar. The quiet...

"Nicely moody work from Barth – aka Barthelemy Corbelet, a French artist who recorded the set in Paris and Rouen, but sings in English, with this laidback style that has lots of London echoes in the mix! The tunes have a slightly quirky vibe – kind of Donovan into the...

A stunner of a record – one that's funky, but full of surprises as well! We're not sure how to read the "toe rag" on the cover, but we can tell you that the set's a killer from the funky Shawn Lee – a set of live instrumentation, and one...

Gloriously mature and engrossing movements for cello, flute and tape self-released from the Japanese duo on their Ozato label. It’s hard to write anything about Torso’s music without giving the impression that this is polite, nicely buttoned-up contemporary classical dishwater. It isn’t. The same constituents are there - bowed cello,...

What November did was basically take the UK heavy blues rock sound of Cream, Led Zeppelin, et al, added Swedish vocals, and made it entirely their own concoction. This is guitar fronted trio (and a bit of flute) standard hard rock with a blues foundation and excellent vocals. Originally released...

Justice's monster beats, massive hooks, thunderous drums, and near-religious determination to demolish dance floors cast them in a light no contemporary can catch. The group's debut single, 'Waters Of Nazareth' arrived in 2006 and solidified their sound: huge slabs of beats, brutal strings, and cathartic release. That record sets the...

Audiopile Review: Every great artist has a singular moment when they produce something unique and unrepeatable. Arthur Russell clearly knew this, as he never even tried to recapture the magic unleashed by 1987’s ‘World of Echo’. Using voice and processed cello, Russell pulled nine-dimensional song structures from that ethereal zone...

Audiopile Review: Detouring from his usual dour jangle fair, Bobby Would turn in a metaphysical drone album for his newest on Digital Regress. While a sizeable move away from the “fog pop” that we’ve come to know him by, it also isn’t coming entirely out of leftfield. Originally recorded live...

Audiopile Review: Philly’s King Blood makes an unexpected but fully welcome return, landing once again on his hometown imprint Petty Bunco (Emily Robb, Astute Palate, David Nance) for his first album since 2019’s Hocus Focus.

Aguaturbia's second LP Volumen 2 (1970) is an essential album to understand the construction of what is known today as Chilean rock.

Two and a half decades on, Jawbreaker's 24 Hour Revenge Therapy (1993-94) is the rare album to have lost none of its original loyalty, affection, and reverence. If anything, today, the cult of Jawbreaker-in their own words, "the little band that could but would probably rather not"-is now many times...

Received an 8.0 rating from Pitchfork. We all know the type: prolific bands that commit every loose thought, stray idea and 90-second song fragment to tape. Bands that pay no attention to little inconveniences like “release cycles” or “self-editing,” and instead decide that quantity equals quality, creating a discography more...

The first studio full-length from David Berman’s Silver Jews’ project, 1994’s Starlite Walker found the Virginia native’s poetry paired with languid, lived-in instrumentation provided largely by his friends in Pavement: Stephen Malkmus, Bob Nastanovich, and Steve West. The loose experimentalism that marked Berman’s earlier recordings is still there in parts...

Audiopile Review: Deb Googe’s status as a bass goddess is surely undisputed. If all she had done was play in the classic line-up of My Bloody Valentine, she’d still be a legend (hell, all she’d really need to have done was play the intro run on ‘Soft as...

Every so often, an album of such deceptive genius, of such aesthetic clarity, comes across our desk and transfixes us. Thought Leadership's III Of Pentacles is one such work of art.

Bon Iver’s three-song collection SABLE, was an act of vulnerability and unburdening. Written and recorded at a breaking point, they were songs of reflection, fear, depression, solitude, and atonement. The word “sable” implies darkness, and in that triptych, Justin Vernon sought to unpack some long-compounded pain. Then, at the tail...
