Maybeshewill ~ No Feeling Is Final
Fans grieve when bands break up, but rejoice when they reunite. U.K. post-rockers Maybeshewill had called it quits in 2016, reuniting briefly for a concert (because when Robert Smith asks, people say yes). But now, seven years after Fair Youth, the quintet

Plïnkï Plønkï ~ Psalms for a Sunken Moon
Plïnkï Plønkï‘s lunar album is a tiny treasure, a cassette in an A5 box, like the moon eclipsed by the sun. Ana Stefaniak lends illustrations, Amanda Nordqvist reads verses, and guest musicians from around the world flesh out the compositions

Oscar W. Küsel ~ The Woods: a visceral descent into the violent nature of metamorphosis
The woods are lovely, dark and deep … well, maybe not these woods. These are the woods that beckon trick or treaters, the trees possessed by the Kandarian Demon, the wrong turns taken by weary travelers, the path to the gingerbread house, Grandmother’s
