Monist ~ New Romans: A History
Constantinople became Istanbul, Datsun became Nissan, Prince became a glyph for a bit, then became Prince again. Now ontopsych has become Monist. What’s in a name? Apparently, a lot. While a rose by any other name would still smell as

Chapelier Fou ~ Deltas
The cover of Deltas says it all: the music of Chapelier Fou is bright and happy, twinkling and colorful, creative and adventuresome. On his third album, Metz (France) artist Louis Warynski doesn’t defy genres as much as invite them in. A delta is a convergence of

This Will Destroy You ~ Another Language
An eerie feeling must have enveloped the members of This Will Destroy You when they realized that their band name was about to become prescient. Over the last few years, the band has been haunted by stress fractures, tragedies, and the loss

Soiled ~ Splices and phases
An unusual album from an enigmatic artist, Splices and phases delivers on the promise of its title by including multiple genres, often within single tracks. The album goes through phases, and seems spliced from a large sonic soundboard. For example, the opening

Giovanni Lami ~ मेम वेर्म [mema verma]
Utilizing unintentional and incidental sounds produced with a shruti box, the latest solo work from Giovanni Lami is conceptually coherent and carefully arranged. In the past, we’ve covered his work as half of Terrapin (with Shaun McAlpine) and Lemures (with

Pronoun ~ Faux
Australia’s Pronoun kickstarts Faux with a battle cry, a Double Dragon styled yell that oozes out of past decades, bleeding like a wound into the present from its once-pristine arcade or, as teenagers in the 80’s and 90’s will tell you, paradise.

Robbie Basho ~ Art of the Acoustic Steel String Guitar 6 & 12 / Dennis Taylor ~ Dayspring
Unlimited potential, unrivaled opportunity: a thousand colors live inside the guitar. Shady or suntanned. Pale vines or a rose of riveting red. All are conjured, and they all decorate the facade. The guitar can revive lifeless music, can accompany the
