Fuzzy Meadows: The Week's Best New Music (December 2nd - December 15th)
Various Artists - "Cosmic Waves Volume 1" | Album Review
Cosmic Waves Volume 1 is sort of a compilation. That “sort of” categorization is due to a rarely applied (if done before) concept - a musical dialogue between Angel Olsen and five other artists/bands chosen by her. Side A features the label’s artists while Side B finds Olsen covering songs from their respective catalogs.
Picture That - "Strum" | Album Review
The Stiletto Edge Between Innovation and Emotion: An Interview with Xiu Xiu
There’s no better evidence for why the band has stayed so relevant than their mind-altering new album 13" Frank Beltrame Italian Stiletto with Bison Horn Grips, an astounding slice of psychedelia-tinged noise-pop. Music is more than mere purpose to Jamie Stewart but intrinsic to their life just as it is to the listeners.
2nd Grade - "Scheduled Explosions" | Album Review

Writing Your Own Obituary with 7xvethegenius | Feature Interview
7xvethegenius — “Love” for the uninitiated — has one of rap’s unique flows. Poetic in rhythm and biting in delivery, 7xve’s wordplay is like a prize fighter, ducking jabs and delivering knock out blows. She spoke with Post-Trash’s Benji Heywood about perseverance, technology, and her new album, Death Of Deuce.
ALBUM OF THE WEEK: Kim Deal - "Nobody Loves You More"
Tedward - "Peace" | Post-Trash Premiere
Black Ends - "Psychotic Spew" | Album Review
It takes a lot of chutzpah for a band to dub themselves the progenitors of a new genre, but Seattle’s Black Ends are up to the task, trading in what they call “gunk pop.” A sideways inversion of pop-punk, deep from the Pacific Northwest ethos of bluesy, heavy grunge and raucous, righteous Riot Girl.
