Last Builders of Empire ~ Post-War
Today is Veterans Day in the United States, a day to honor those who have served their country with honor. Post-War is an album inspired by a Civil War letter. The album takes its form from Dante’s Divine Comedy, proceeding from Inferno

Tallesen ~ Stills Lit Through
Let’s start with the video. “Strike Silver, Love Green” has been circulating since July, creating anticipation for Tallesen‘s debut album. The track title and visuals invite listeners to imagine Stills Lit Through as a colorful, synaesthetic experience. The slow-moving abstractions operate as paint

EZ3kiel ~ Lux
From the cover, one is led to expect a gothic/industrial album. From the lead single, “Anonymous”, one is led to expect a sparse, vocal, electronic album. And yet, neither is the case. The French band’s tenth album in 23 years

Óbó ~ Innhverfi (Exclusive Full Album Stream!)
Sigur Rós fans will be drawn instantly to the debut release from Ólafur Björn Ólafsson, the band’s touring keyboardist and percussionist, especially given the fact that the last Sigur Rós album dropped the percussion. But we’ve already buried the lead story: Óbó

Blueneck ~ King Nine
Album to album, the sound of Blueneck is hard to predict: instrumental, buried vocal, clear vocal, mix. But the melancholic mix of piano and guitars is constant, as is the level of quality. The new work pushes the band further into the

Lawrence English + Stephen Vitiello ~ Fable
We last encountered Lawrence English on the immersive Wilderness of Mirrors, released earlier this year; we last encountered Stephen Vitiello at the New York exhibition “In the Garden of Sonic Delights”. On Fable, the artists join forces for the second time, following 2011’s Acute Inbetweens (Crónica). Each album shares a

Nikita Bondarev ~ Siberian Loner
Over the past few weeks, I’ve been watching the warm weather slowly slip away. But in Siberia, November’s daily mean is -6 Celsius (21 F). It’s already cold there. Winter is not something that’s coming. And so, this cassette from

Golden Diskó Ship ~ Invisible Bonfire
The music of Theresa Stroetges (Golden Diskó Ship) is beautiful, beguiling and bold. Why can’t more pop music be like this? Simultaneously more accessible and intricate than 2012’s Prehistoric Dance Party, her latest work cements her reputation as a dynamic composer.
