I/O ~ Anyone, Anywhere
Boston post-rock septet I/O has come a long way in three years. 2014’s Saudade was a solid debut, albeit nondescript. Anyone, Anywhere adds brass and strings and dares listeners to dismiss it. The tasteful integration of these elements, along with careful sequencing, lifts the band’s

The Chapel of Exquises Ardents Pears ~ TorqueMadra
Sometimes a collaboration is more than just a collaboration, it’s a statement. And even though this blended band doesn’t make its statement explicit, the friendship between France’s Anathème and the U.K.’s Stems underlines the thought that Brexit is a very bad idea.

L’Effondras ~ Les Flavescences
We usually leave the hard stuff to our friends at Echoes & Dust, but this one was too good to resist. Lyon post-rock / post-metal threesome L’Effondras channels the might of Tool in four long tracks and adds a whole lot of
