ALBUM OF THE WEEK: Black Curse - "Burning in Celestial Poison"

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: Black Curse - "Burning in Celestial Poison"

Black Curse’s second album, Burning in Celestial Poison, is 45 minutes of excruciating malevolence. Four years after their debut, the band returns with four curses, recited with impenetrable shrieking and swirling guitars hollering from the depths of Hell.

Various Artists - "Cosmic Waves Volume 1" | Album Review

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.

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: The Submissives - "Live At Value Sound Studios"

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: The Submissives - "Live At Value Sound Studios"

The Live at Value Sound Studios album by The Submissives is an honest, versatile, chamber of preternatural affairs. Full of satirical, distorted sounds, the band are reminiscent of 60s kink-style, psychedelic-fueled rock and riot-y Mommy Long Legs qualities.

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: Kim Deal - "Nobody Loves You More"

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: Kim Deal - "Nobody Loves You More"

Nobody Loves You More is undoubtedly Kim Deal’s most sincere album. Its warm and sunny tone has been widely noted – there is a pink flamingo on the LP’s sleeve like it’s a Christopher Cross album – and explained as a reflection of her unanticipated time in Florida.

Thurston Moore - "Flow Critical Lucidity" | Album Review

Thurston Moore has been quite busy as of late. His most recent release, Flow Critical Lucidity, is a brilliantly crafted album. With the help of poet Radieux Radio, it manages to be a worthwhile time showcasing Moore’s immaculate musicianship, still unsurprisingly fascinating.

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: Porridge Radio - "Clouds In The Sky They Will Always Be There For Me"

ALBUM OF THE WEEK: Porridge Radio - "Clouds In The Sky They Will Always Be There For Me"

Clouds in the Sky… is one of those records that feels destined to wriggle into the bones of anyone who comes across it—a heartbreak album that can stand in for literally any kind of messy grieving, whether universal or personal, amorphous or hyper-specific.

Horse Jumper of Love - "Disaster Trick" | Album Review

Horse Jumper of Love - "Disaster Trick" | Album Review

Horse Jumper of Love continue to push boundaries, both musical and emotional. This release veers more fully into earnestness, and it’s their best album as a result. As noted, the LP marks a new period of sobriety for Dimitri Giannopoulos, who quit drinking prior to the recording, and the album bears clear traces of this turn.
