Evan Caminiti ~ Dreamless Sleep

It’s amazing what can happen to us in a year. Something we did twelve months ago can mean something entirely different or fail to resonate with us today. Such a gap in time is what allowed Evan Caminiti to take

Vopat ~ Turbide

Before Sujo there was Vopat, a post-rock endeavor from Ryan Huber that exuded hints of the monstrous drone project that was to come.  It’s been a while since the former beast reared its not-so-ugly head. Turbide is a celebration of that sound: rediscovered

The Velocity Raptors ~ I, Donna

The Velocity Raptors is a clever name for this new band, who subverts post-rock expectations by retaining the dinosaur association (slow, lumbering) and merging it with brevity and speed.  As people continue to debate the future of post-rock (dead, alive, thriving,

Motion ~ The Drowned World

For the past few days, New York has been in the midst of a heat wave, and I’ve been waiting for a break ~ a cool, overcast, rainy day in which to review The Drowned World.  The smooth modern jazz/Necks-like post-rock

Fighting Lion ~ Sparkling days, sparkling nights

This fighting lion is more of a happy, confident lion, saying “Put ’em up, put ’em up” in a playful fashion.  After all, who in their right mind would want to fight with a lion?  That’s why most lions get

K-Conjog ~ Set Your Spirit Freak!

Please ignore the connotations of the title and the moniker.  This is neither a hip-hop album nor a collection of club anthems, but a melodic blend of post-rock and modern composition, and one of the year’s undiscovered gems.  Abandon Building

Johan G Winther ~ Of Use

The first wave of recorded music was physical, the second digital, and the third personal.  One of the best things to come from the digital revolution was a response from the creative art industry: a wash of physical releases that

Andrew Weathers & Andrew Marino ~ We Don’t Have Sun Like This

The folky, homespun, guitar-picking improvisational style of the North Carolinian hills is now the sound of … Oakland, California?  Yes, you read that right.  Andrew Weathers has relocated, although his sound hasn’t yet changed to reflect the culture of Raiders and
